Excerpt from Joseph Dix' Family History (son of Mary Bland & John Dix), written in 1897, about Mary Elizabeth Dix (Joseph Dix' niece):
God had given her a mind to be her own, and after she gave her heart to him, she read and thought for herself, and believed in being let by the Holy Spirit in a vocations in life. And after her dear mother’s death, and other changes in the family circle, her mind was drawn towards Christian work, and in 1891 she engaged in Christian benevolence, caring for the destitute and perishing in Belleville, Ontario Canada. She loved this work and felt that
(44)
was her calling and concluded to devote herself to it. She soon went to Chicago to the Deaconess’ school for that purpose; and after taking the full course she graduated in the year 1893, and entered the Deaconess’ work. The order provided a home, board, clothing and expenses, and care in health and sickness, (for life even unto old age) when not able to work. The deaconess’ home was under the auspices of the N. E. Church. But there was an independent association of the same class of work, in the city, superintended by Dr. Geo. W. Gray. When she became acquainted with it she preferred it to the former; although their workers had no stated salary, and no stock funds to fall back on in any case, or at any time, in sickness or old age; they trusted in the providence of God for all help they needed in the worl(d). After working soje (?) two years in the Deaconess’ work, she gave up all their benefits and cast her lot with Dr. Gray’s association, trusting God for all she might need; forgetting self, working for others.

Excerpt from: HISTORY OF THE DEACONESS MOVEMENT IN THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH BY REV. C. COLDER, PH. D
Dr. George W. Gray, superintendent of Methodist City
Missions in Chicago, has shown that in one district of
Chicago, with a population of twenty-two thousand, there
are but two Protestant Churches and one Catholic Church;
but in the same district there are two hundred and seventy-two saloons, eighty-five wine-houses, seven opium and eight gambling dens, and not less than ninety-two houses of ill-fame. Tf the Church is indifferent to such conditions, she will sow the wind and reap the whirlwind. True, it can not be said that the Church has altogether neglected her duties. She appoints city missionaries, opens mission halls, and has inaugurated an extended missionary activity of the most varied character; but the Church mem bers themselves are passive; in fact, they studiously get out of the way of this class of people. They do not wish to give up anything of their social position; they move in other circles, dress better, cultivate science and art, and unfortunately the large churches of the present day are so arranged and appointed that this poorest and most abandoned class would not feel at home in them, even if they were visitors. City missionaries are looked upon by this class as paid agents of the Church, and the efforts made unfortunately do not achieve the results which, in view of the means employed, might have been reasonably expected.
