    TWENTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT
    of the
    Domestic and Indian Mission Board
    Marion, Alabama: April 1869; pamphlet with 8 pages, sewn with self covers and caption title as issued.
    The Southern Baptist Missionary group trying to help Native Americans (mostly to "convert" them religion-wise, I suspect) had its office in Marion Alabama at this time. Marion was also home to a couple of Baptist Colleges at then: Judson for women and Howard College for men. (Judson College is still there).
    Tells what the board had done for Native Americans (as well as 2 paragraphs devoted to work with German Immigrants [the text notes that there were 35,000 German Catholics in Baltimore as well as 3000 German "infidels" in that city!] plus 3 - only 3 -
    lines
    of text devoted to work among "the Colored People.")  during the previous year. The report also recounts the boards finances for the previous year.
    As of 7 Aug. 2021 I could find no other listing for this pamphlet @ebay, either current or completed listings
