Collected by Methodist Missionaries (Methodist Missionary Society) and circulated among churches in England on Mission Sunday to raise money for the missions. 67 ½” length. Finely forged iron point with butted seam socket. The haft of the natural branch or vine with the bark intact required stretching it with suspended stones during its growth cycle to produce this perfect result.
