Excerpt from Protestantism in Poland: A Brief Study of Its History as an Encouragement to Mission Work Among the Poles The Poles belong to the great Slavonic race, which includes a majority Of the inhabitants in the Austrian and Russian empires, besides myriads of others in provinces subject to the Turk, and in kingdoms newly freed from his rule. The Polish people may be traced as far back as the sixth century At the time when all the lands forming the jagged margin of the Mediterranean were included in the vast empire Of the Roman Caesars, the Slave hians were decidedly the most numerous Of the four stock-races which divided amongst them the rest Of Europe - the Celts in the west, the Goths in the middle and north, the Slavonians in the east, and the Ugrians or Firms in the extreme circumpolar regions. Physically, they are a well-formed race, taller than the Celts, with complexions as fair or nearly as fair as the Goths, and with hair brown or reddish, but seldom black. Contrasted with the Goths they are what physiologists call brachy-ce phalic, - that is, their heads were proportionally broader across, and less deep from front to back.
