=== FRIDAY, January 28, 1870. === I have had Charly drawing up wood to day. Mother and I went out to Townsend after our ministerial brethren had gone, to make Robert Colvers a visit. We had rather a pleasant time. The weather is quite cold but very clear and pleasant. "I know that I shall reach the hights and depths of Jesu's love, and that soon I shall be His fully and entirely. I feel that I am fully consecrated but faith sometimes trembles. But I will strive to press on with all my heart for I do know that strength will come bringing rest & peace. === SATURDAY, January 29, 1870. === Charley has been drawing up wood to-day as usual. I have been cuting and spliting at the Wood-house. There was once a building of stone erected. The mason put in just one stone which was soft and in course of time that stone crumbled away and a hole was left in the wall. It so hapened that the stone was directly under the beem that supported the roof or rafters. This of course fell in and the building was a ruin all from one stone. So with our lives. One single stone of our character may ruin the whole.
