'This volume on "Medicine versus Witchcraft" does not pretend to solve problems of medicine or those of witchcraft; it is not even a history of our Medical Mission. It is but a "Story" showing to our readers what happened when medical service was added to the missionary activities of Mariannhill, and the difficulties which were experienced especially in the struggle against witchcraft, which is undoubtedly the greatest of all obstacles to a Christian civilisation and orthodox medical care among the Bantu people of Africa.'
