The martyrs of Madagascar

Note:
Caption: “The condemned native Christians were tried to poles and carried up to the top of a precipice. They were offered life if they renounced their faith, but none faltered. One of them, a young woman, was compelled to see the others hurled over the fatal rock, but not even she was intimidated, and indeed begged to be thrown after her friends.” [Field, between pgs. 156-157]
