520 3    |a A deputation led by Dr Mullens, Foreign Secretary of the London Missionary Society, and the Rev J. Pillans was appointed to visit Madagascar in 1873. This followed the baptism a few years earlier of Queen Ranavalomanjaka and her prime minister on 21 February 1869. The deputation reached Antananarivo on 30 August 1873, but the queen was absent on a royal progress. A visit was made to the Betsileo province, and arrangements made for the extension of the mission there. On the return of the queen the deputation had an interview with her and presented her with an address from the Directors. Visits were then paid to all the mission stations in the country regions of Imerina. In January 1874, an important conference was held, attended by representatives of the London Missionary Society, Norwegian and Friends' missions. The deputation had a farewell interview with the queen and received from her a reply to the Directors' address. They returned to London on 23 September 1874.
