  • Kalimpong Kids: the New Zealand Story, in Pictures by Jane Mccabe
    Kalimpong Kids: The New Zealand story, in pictures By Jane McCabe. Dunedin: Otago University Press, 2020 RRP: $35, ISBN: 978-198-859-236-7. Reviewed by: Suddhabrata Deb Roy Kalimpong Kids is a rare book. Written by historian, Jane McCabe, this book recounts the history of a scheme which managed the emigration of mixed-race children from Kalimpong and North-Eastern India to New Zealand. The scheme, which began in 1908 at the insistence of Dr John Anderson Graham, went on till 1939, the view across this time being that ‘mixed- race people ... were “undesirable”’. The plan, however, did not go on continuously and was halted from 1929-1938 due to numerous governmental and geo-political reasons. The Anglo- Indian children were shifted from St. Andrews Colonial Homes which was later renamed into Dr Graham’s Homes. The first two graduates who found their way to Dunedin were Leonard and Sydney Williams. Although Dr Graham’s initial wish was to settle these children across the British Empire, New Zealand proved to be the only country where the Kalimpong Kids could settle down. Dr Graham, a Scottish Presbyterian Missionary stationed in Kalimpong, aspired to provide the children of mixed ancestry in British India with a future which was secured and free from the vulnerabilities which awaited them in British India because of multiple colonial laws. The book sets out a course to uncover the history behind the relocation of the children, who were sent to New Zealand to achieve for themselves, the benefits of Western education and to rid themselves of any possible effect due to racial mixing in India.

It allows me to express the great gratitude of the UK Committee to Anna Panter and the Ladies’ Committee who organise this joyful annual luncheon reunion. An average of £6,000 is raised, which is a large contribution towards our efforts in raising over £220,000 annually, for the work of Dr Graham’s Homes. Perhaps, you would like to join us at the lunch next year. In two days time, along with 17 others, I will depart for the annual “3 K’s” Tour. For many this will be their first visit to India and after having seen the work and worth of Dr Graham’s Homes many respond in very real terms. “I didn’t know India was like this”! It is a common and positive response and I often quote the Chinese proverb “I hear and I forget, I see and I remember, I do and I understand”. Perhaps you, or someone known to you, might like to be a part of the November, 2010 tour. It is a holiday and much more!

  • Christian Mission, Educational Institutions, and Identity Formation Jayeeta Sharma Kalimpong As a Transcultural Missionary Contact Zone
    PART I Christian Mission, Educational Institutions, and Identity Formation Jayeeta Sharma Kalimpong as a Transcultural Missionary Contact Zone Abstract This article explores Kalimpong as a transformative mountain space for mixed-race children, a locality closely associated with a range of imperial missionary activity, notably through the personality and ca- reer of its famous adoptive citizen, the Rev. John Anderson Graham, the founder of the St Andrew’s Colonial Homes, now known as Graham’s Homes. From the 1870s, the Foreign Mission of the Church of Scotland undertook an array of activities directed at the diverse populations of the hill-station towns of Kalimpong and Darjeeling on the mountainous edg- es of British India and the regions of Bhutan, Nepal, Sikkim, and Tibet. The chapter examines how Scottish Presbyterian associational networks around print, religion, education, social reform, and self-help enterprises helped develop Kalimpong’s role as a transcultural and transnational hub that functioned as a key contact zone in the Eastern Himalayan region. 25 JAYEETA SHARMA Introduction This chapter explores Kalimpong as a dynamic contact zone for transcul- tural and transnational missionary interactions. It explores those histori- cal trajectories with particular reference to the Eastern Himalayan Mission of the Church of Scotland, as well as the associational and transnational networks that emerged around this space. Since the 1870s, the Foreign Mission of the Church of Scotland had undertaken Christian preaching and local outreach around the British Indian hill-station towns of Kalim- pong and Darjeeling, particularly in the areas of education and health, which had considerable local demand. In 1887, the Rev.

  • MCCABE, JANE. Race, Tea and Colonial Resettlement. Imperial
    Book Reviews 353 MCCABE,JANE. Race, Tea and Colonial Resettlement. Imperial Families, Interrupted. Bloomsbury Press, London [etc.] 2017. xvii, 253 pp. Ill. £65.00. (E-book: £56.16.) In 1900, Reverend Dr John Anderson Graham, a missionary of the Church of Scotland, who had settled in Kalimpong to work with the local community, founded St. Andrew’s Colonial Homes. The institution became known as Dr Graham’s Homes (hereafter Homes). The primary aim of Homes was to provide institutional care for tea plantation children of mixed parentage, born of British men planters and Indian women workers. The scale and ubiquity of these relationships had captured considerable public attention in the late nineteenth century. Homes adopted a scheme to facilitate the migration and settlement of these children to New Zealand. It is this scheme that is the chief subject of Jane McCabe’s book. The author’s grandmother was one of the inmates of Homes, who had been sent to New Zealand as part of the scheme in 1921. The book traces the history of several such children, who were removed from the plantations to the home and then to New Zealand, focusing on six families. The search for similar families and the tracing of their histories of separation, travel and settlement is part of the nuanced and sensitive account constructed by the author. It draws together history, memory, genealogy and ethnography to tell a most unusual story. One significant aspect of the account is the inclusion of the seekers of the story in the frame of analysis – the descendants in New Zealand who have been a critical part of the research and whose questions and curiosities about their Indian past has provoked and enriched the search.

  • Disturbance and Intimacy in an Interracial „Empire Family‟
    An Unlikely Pair: Disturbance and Intimacy in an Interracial „Empire Family‟ JANE McCABE It was on a Monday morning, 23 April 1906, after several delays due to „a terrible spell of weather‟ that Egerton Peters set his two young children, Lorna aged four and George aged two, on a one-way journey away from their tea plantation home in Assam. The children were accompanied by their father for the first leg of the journey by boat from remote Cachar to the nearest town, where they were put in the hands of a „reliable man‟ to make the two-day rail journey to Ghoom, in the Darjeeling district of Bengal, northeast India. At Ghoom they were to be met by a representative of the St Andrew‟s Colonial Homes, who would escort them to their destination, the tiny hill station of Kalimpong. At 1.22pm the following day, Peters dispatched a telegram to the Homes advising of the children‟s departure and „trusting arrangements for meeting them alright‟.1 This moment of separation from their father represented both a beginning and an end for the children. They would never see their mother again, nor their extended kin on the tea plantation, nor Assam itself. And it would be 20 years before they would again meet their father, not in India but in far off New Zealand. As for beginnings, this was the moment from which the trajectories of their lives were defined by their categorization as Eurasian, a term that was widely understood as indicating an ancestry that included a male European, but was otherwise ambiguous.2 Classification as Eurasian was essentially a negative distinction, a classification of what one was not (i.e.

  • The Melong: an Example of the Formation of a Tibetan Press
    The Melong An Example of the Formation of a Tibetan Language Press Revised Edition Of a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the "Mag.phil." (MA) degree at the University of Vienna, Austria Anna Sawerthal Vienna, 2011 2 Abstract Until the beginning of the 20 th century, there was no such thing as “press” in the Tibetan- speaking world. Texts, the act of printing, and the act of reading were highly entwined with religious, i.e. Buddhist, aspirations and did not necessarily fulfil the goal of acquiring knowledge or spreading news. On the contrary, printing and reading were often expected to accumulate merit. The concept of “news" in the modern sense did not exist. It were Christian missionaries on the one hand, and Chinese representatives residing in Lhasa on the other hand, who introduced first attempts of producing newspapers in the Tibetan-speaking world in the first decade of the 20 th century. In 1925, the first Tibetan stepped into the scene: Dorje Tharchin founded the Yul phyogs so so’i gsar ‘gyur me long (The Mirror of News from Different Regions), in short: the Melong (Mirror) which was usually published monthly. The Melong existed until 1963 and in the course of time grew to be a serious piece of journalistic work. This study deals with the Melong, as an example of the formation of journalistic Tibetan publications. The general question is raised: how can the Melong be characterized? To answer this question, the study clarifies the Melong's position in reference to the two journalistic genres of newspapers and magazines.
