THURSDAY, MAY 26, 1870.

The boy and I have been cleaning out some furrows in the ten-acre field to day &c. Charly has been preparing teh potatoe ground. Have heard, through the day, several reumors of "fenians" through the day and to night I was told that our volunteers had a fight with them down at Ridgeway & killed thirteen. I ahve been unusually blessed in prayer too day. My desire has fervently gone up to God through his dear Love The assurance that His exceeding great and precious promises should never fail was never more glorious.
