"The Santal Mission in America, and the Visit of Skrefsrud in 1894-95," is a translation of a chapter of a Norwegian scholar's doctoral dissertation on the history of the Santal Mission. The Santal Mission was organized by Lars Skrefsrud and [?] Børresen in Santalistan, India, in 1867, and received support from the Scandinavian church groups in the United States, especially after 1893, when a Santal Committee was elected. The translations are by Harry T. Kleven and Arne Unheim. The file includes "Fra Skrefsrud til venner i Amerika," Decorah-Posten, September 29, 1981; sermons and reports by Skrefsrud about the Santal mission during his American visit, 1894-1895, and clippings (1891-1940) about the mission and the American Santal Committee.
