Excerpt from With Christ in Sailor Town: What the Seamen's Mission Is Doing

Sailors are in theory admired, but in practice forgotten. They are not, like the redcoats, quartered in all our large towns and familiar in all our streets. The very nature of their calling, their life made up of linked absences, puts them out of mind and except in a voy age, or at the alarm of naval war, we give little attention to them.

Excerpt from With Christ in Sailor Town: What the Seamen's Mission Is Doing

But there is a painful degree of truth in it. We are seldom deeply moved by sufferings to which we are not likely to be exposed, and consequently, though we are a seafaring people, and make it our boast that we rule the seas, it is a comparatively new thing for the public to feel any great concern about those who do their business on great waters; and even now the gallant and persistent efforts which are made to help and to bless our sailors receive astonishingly little support from those to whom the sea is but a distant name or a pleasant summer recreation.
