The Foreign Mission Committee of the Church of Scotland sent him in 1881 to revive the agging Blantyre mission, which had been wracked by violent scandal and depleted by staff resignations and the dismissal of its leader, Rev. Duff Macdonald.[3] Upon arriving at Blantyre, Scott set to work repairing relationships with local chiefs that had been damaged in preceding years by the deleterious conduct of the mission staff. Under his supervision, the mission strongly promoted the Presbyterian ideal of mission as education, and schools for boys and girls would in time raise many of the future indigenous leaders of colonial and postcolonial Malawi.[4] Evangelism was also a priority, and churches were planted in proximity to Blantyre and further a eld: Mulanje, Domasi and Zomba, and Ngoniland.[5] The Blantyre mission also developed as an industrial mission under Scott’s tutelage, where converts could learn the sort of practical skills that Scott and his colleagues believed would incorporate them into the wider economic and social world of the British empire.

This document tells us about the Scottish church plan to revive the Missionary church in Blantyre, sending Rev. Macdonald. Whom, re-established good relationships with the natives, specifically the elders. He then went on to rebuild reason for mission which was mainly to educate, promote literacy and spread the love of Christ. Also equipping the natives with skills for socioeconomic development.

Scott produced a dictionary of the Chinyanja language that evidenced not only considerable linguistic abilities, but also a deep and sympathetic grasp of African culture.[6] In contrast to many other British missionaries of the day, Scott’s views on African race and culture were progressive. He opposed certain elements of traditional culture as incompatible with Christianity (e.g. initiation rituals, polygamy) but he did not condemn African customs wholesale. On the contrary, he considered some aspects fully consonant with Christianity, permitted traditional dances for schoolboys and girls on the mission compound, and promoted the mlandu— the traditional meeting of elders for discussion and judgment—as relevant for both church and society. “One could wish for no weightier justice than that of native mlandu-power Christianized into a church court,” he enthused.[7]

The linguistic strategy to be inclusive of natives in Christianity by translating the bible to the native language. The Scottish missionaries on the brighter side did not shun or criticize traditions of the natives like other missionaries in other parts rather they allowed autonomous flow of customs that the people identified with while trying to enlighten them on the good news of Jesus. Three traditions of the Blantyre natives - Mlandu, traditional dances and traditional meetings where they discussed matters including those of the church and society and how much influence the church has on the society.

The manuscript conveys how the Portuguese explored Central and Southern Africa. The Portuguese started to explore Angola and Mozambique. Stanely explored Congo. Livingstone Explored Zambezi. Portuguese colonists in Angola and Mozambique were fewer in number and weaker in authority than those in the interior of South Africa. They were unable to control coastal trade and merchants in the hinterland, and their economies were poor and corrupt. Whites had superior status and prestige, and Portugal regained its colonizing energy only after the Napoleonic Wars. Portuguese attempted to expand their colonial nucleus in Angola and Mozambique, leading to wars with African peoples, superior status, and prestige. Portugal regained its colonizing energy at the end of the 19th century. Until the 1890s, the Portuguese held limited power outside of their coastal strongholds. The lone bright point in their fortunes in southeastern Africa was Delagoa Bay's burgeoning affluence as commerce with the Transvaal developed. Internationally, Portuguese claims over Delagoa Bay were recognized in 1875. With the discovery of gold in the South African Republic, the bay gained additional significance as its nearest exit, and Lourenço Marques became Mozambique's capital in 1888.
