[MS 295]

fervently and with singleness of heat to his
mercy seat - this I hope is the case with you - and
may it be so with this poor shaddow - do I say a
shaddow - yess truly it is no more - but if it should
please the Almighty ruler of al lhearts to change
this hard and rebellious one of mine and to grant
in exchange a heart of flesh filled with meekness
and heavenly love what a blessing will it be
to those dear little Children you have been
the Instrument in the Hand of God of collecting
together from time to time and have now left
behind among ravening folnes (if I may so say)
pray fo rme and for our Dear Brother and Sister
teachers that the Lord will go on and work
out that which is be gun in much weekness
amd "who Shall let or Hinder" none- Peraps
you and I may neve meet mor on this earth
ly Ball - but should this be the case hope
and trus that we may be permitted to met
around our Hevenly Fathers ?d where
parting shall be no more for ever and ever

[MS 296]

But on the contra shoul we be spared to
injoy the blessing, to see one, that has been
brought up in a Land of iniquitty, comeing
to us again, with the Gladsome Sound, the
truths of the Gospil of Jesus Chris - to proclaim
and preach to us poor mortuls - how unspeak
able will it be beyond comparrison to those
that love the Lord Jesus Christ in sinserity and
in truth - was it on any other condition
but this alon I think that it woul be more
than we could do but since this be the
case woud repeat. Go - and the God of
Grace and truth Go with you, and crown your
labours with abundant success, to promote
his blessed truth's and may you be the
means in the hand of God to call and
awaken some poor benight sinner from
the error of his way to call upon the Re
deemer in his time of distress ---
