From that time she began to attend Phillips Brooks‘s church. Sho was converted to Christianity by a Brahmin theosophist! "What!" he said. "You do not read your own religious books? I never bheard anything more beautifal than this." By and by Mohini himself happened to get hold of a copy of the New Testament, and was much surprised and impressed by the beauty of its contents.

Originally the name "jJack" was given to the small upright spar in the ship‘s bows from which tho flag was fown when going into action.
