This is THE CAVES OF ELEPHANTA OUTSIDE OF MUMBAI, INDIA, A VISIT TO A BOMBAY OPIUM DEN AND A DISCUSSION OF OPIUM'S INFLUENCE IN THE CITY featured in the original and complete November 21, 1894 edition of THE CHRISTIAN HERALD MAGAZINE! Very fine illustrations throughout... The story here comes from the editor of this publication and his visit and description of THE CAVES OF ELEPHANTA--SACRED TO HEATHEN GODS---and THE WAR AGAINST OPIUM. The cover is devoted to the visit to the Hindu holy site. Inside are pictured ALFRED S DYER... MAN SUKH LAL, and A.W. PRAUTCH, three men who were imprisoned as they were waging a campaign against the drug trade and a Chinese-run opium den in Bombay... Included here is the defense given by Dyer at his trial in which he describes the horrors of his visit to the opium den... There are many other articles here, obviously with a Christian perspective. This publication was edited by Reverend Thomas De Witt Talmage, one of the most prominent religious leaders in the United States in the second half of the 19th century. One other article of note is A VISIT TO THE CONVENT OF MAR SABA in WADI QILT, PALESTINE... This publication measures 14 inches X 10 1/2 inches. This has general edge and corner wear.
