Charley and I have been cuting wood to day for the little stove. The weather has, I think taken a turn for the better--rather, it is becoming colder. "As the spokes of a carriage wheel approach their centre, they approach each other; so, also, when men are brought to Jesus Christ, the centre of life and hope, they are drawn towards each other in brotherly <s>love</s> relationship, and stand side by side journeying to their Heavenly Home." How wonderful is the religion of Christ to give man holy purposes & desires. | Charley and I have been cuting wood to day for the little stove.

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1870.
We finished geting up the wood which we have been cuting this forenoon and this afternoon we have been piling manure in the barnyard. The weather still remains cold and has every appearance of Winter. Saw in the paper a notice of my old Friend Mattie Burke's death. Her husband lived in Bowmanville. His name is Prouth{?}. Dr. Clarke Says that a full free and perfect Salvation is the birthright of every son of man. What a pity that all do not claim it.
