He introduced a printing press which he used to print the Luganda version of the Holy Bible. The printing press is now at the Uganda Museum. Unfortunately, his work was cut short by persecution from the leadership then. He fled to Tabora, Tanzania, where he died at the age of only 41 years. (Mackaycollegeinfo).

SAINT NICETAS OF REMESIANA - C. 414.

Te Deum Laudamus. Illuminated by Esther Faithfull Fleet, Chromolithographed by M. & N. Hanhart. 1868 .

London: Emily Faithull, Printer & Publisher in Ordinary, to Her Majesty. Victoria Press, Princes St. Hanover Square, 1868 . 2nd Edition. 0. A very good original binding, rebacked at some time in the past. Signed by the Author (using her married name: Esther F. Cumberledge) . [4pp.]/ 29 leaves of plates/pp.9/[1p.]/pp.9 . Navy blue boards with gilt title. Corners and spine carefully strengthened at some time in the past. All page edges gilt. Foxing to endpapers. Owner's details to front endpaper: "Ester F. Cumberledge 138, The Grove, Ealing, W.5." Title-page in red, lightly foxed. Otherwise, clean text and illustratons throughout. A well preserved book with an excellent provenance. * ".. Among the children were Esther Faithfull Fleet (1823-1908), who was both a book illustrator and the mother of seven children. The youngest child, Emily Faithfull (1835-1895), was an feminist reformer, philanthropist, printer, publisher, novelist, and lecturer. ** "Emily Faithfull (27 May 1835 - 31 May 1895) was an English women's rights activist who set up the Victoria Press to publish the English Woman's Journal.. The Victoria Press was a printing press started by Emily Faithfull, along with other feminist activists, in London, on March 26, 1860. The press, named after Queen Victoria, was created to allow more women into the printing field. In 1867 management of the press was given by Faithfull to William Wilfred Head, a partner in the press. Head continued to print pieces advocating for the employment of women until 1882, even after buying Faithfull out in 1869. Faithfull was a member of the Society for Promoting the Employment of Women and co-founder of the Women's Printing Society. She was also awarded the honour of being printer and publisher in ordinary to Queen Victoria, indicating that Faithfull was the official printer and publisher of Queen Victoria. Faithfull was convinced that work as a compositor could be a well-suited trade for women seeking occupation since by the nineteenth century this was generally a well-paid industry. After learning type-setting, Faithfull founded the press, and then went on to train and hire other women as compositors for her shop. Despite generating hostility from the male-dominated London Typographical Society (then known as the London Society of Compositors), and The Union denying women access to compositor's work (using the justification that women lacked the mechanical ability and the intelligence to be compositors) Faithfull persevered, and her press continued for years." *** "Esther Faithfull (1824- 1908) was born in June 1854 in Penge, Surrey, the daughter of Esther Faithfull and John G. Fleet. She married Charles Farrington Camberlege on 21 November 1874 in England. She died on 5 December 1944 in Ealing, Middlesex at the age of 90. Esther Faithfull Fleet, was both a gifted book illustrator and the mother of seven children, including John Faithfull Fleet, a noted historian and Indologist; George Rutland Fleet, a successful actor; and Herbert Cecil Fleet, a Vice-Admiral. Her younger sister. **** Te Deum Laudamus, published by Emily Faithfull with twenty-one chromolithographic plates designed by Esther Faithfull Fleet, catered to the Victorian taste for beautifully decorated books. Each plate in this devotional book features one verse of the hymn Te Deum Laudamus inside a panel printed in imitation of medieval manuscript illumination. The artist also provided brief captions for each illustration at the end of the book. Regarding the exhibited verse, which highlights the feminine role in Christian salvation, she wrote: "The blue and white of this plate are the well-known colours of the Virgin; the lily is the emblem of the Incarnation, and the doves refer to the offering in the temple at the time of the Purification (Luke ii. 24)." - Please see pictures.

The Union School-Song Garland. A Collection of Songs for School and Home Use; The Music Arranged for Two Trebles and Bass, and Printed in Hamilton's Patent Union Musical Notation, (Invented by Mr John Lang).

London: Bayley & Ferguson, nd. Originally published in the 1870s, this edition is probably from around the 1890s. A collection of songs for schoolchildren. "The music is written in the " patent union notation," which is an ingenious combination of the ordinary and the tonic sol-fa methods, and is suited for instrumental as well as vocal rendering. The Editor deserves credit for the excellence of his choice, both of words and music."( — Scotsman). 20cms x 17cms. Pp.188, words + musical notation, owner's name to title page. Grey/blue cloth, gilt title to front, edges slightly rubbed. VG. ** "The great favour with which the "Union School Singing-Book" has been received by Teachers has induced the preparation and issue of the present book of songs, printed in the same notation. The work contains no instructions or lessons in singing, but is simply a collection of songs for practice and recreation. It extends to six Nos, forming a rather extensive collection, embracing a large number of the best German melodies, united to suitable words, with many from American and other sources, together with a larger proportion of the home songs of our own country than it has hitherto been usual to admit into simi- lar collections for children's use. No pains have been spared to obtain good and pleasant melodies, and to unite them to suitable verses. It has been a special object, also, to make the harmonies flowing and singable, while at the same time effective and musician-like.".
