SATURDAY, JULY 9, 1870.
The past has been a fine day for hay-making. Of course we have improved it as much as possible. We finished up the 'Big Flat' this afternoon. Altogether we took about sixteen loads of hay of that field. Rather a small field for fifteen acres of ground. I am still trying to live in hope of the blessing which God has so often promised me. The assurance was renewed again this morning, on reading "He will withold no good thing from them that walk upright."
SUNDAY, JULY 10, 1870.
The past has been a day fraught with priveleges and blessings. I went to hear Bro. Ebersoule preach this morning and this afternoon Bro. German preached. We had a very good congregation. The sermon was excellent. And then our class meeting afterwards was unusually a season of refreshing from the presence of the Lord. It was my privelege under God to recieve a new member {ontrial?} to day. One of whom I had but little hopes, but he has been drawn by mercy & power of God to seek salvation. It was Andrew Smith, a man more than fifty years old.
