dc.description.abstract The Baptist mission to the Delaware Indians of Kansas operated from 1832 to 1868. The mission was supervised by three missionaries during that time-Charles Wilson, Ira Blanchard, and John G. Pratt. The stated purpose of the mission was to Christianize the Indians. The actual purpose of the mission was to assimilate the Delaware into the culture of the white man. Although the mission failed to Christianize the Indians because of the cultural constraints of the missionaries, it was successful in the objective of assimilation. en_US
