SATURDAY, AUGUST 20, 1870.

We have been threshing to day. A little sooner than I expected although they told me that they would come to day. Had some difficulty in geting hands but with the blessing of God succeeded at length. Got the job done about dark. My life this day has been a wonder under me. Never have the has Divine guidance and blessing been more apparant unto me. Have been beset on every side with difficulties and yet the Lord has delivered me, to the exceeding joy of my poor soul.

SUNDAY, AUGUST 21, 1870.

I went over to the Advent service this morning. Heard a very good discourse on the necessity of Christian perfection. Our own Dear minister Bro German was with us this afternoon and preached from-- And now abideth these three Faith, Hope, and Charity, but the greatest of these is Charity. We had a soul stirring discourse some of whcih I would like to record but cannot do it justice in this little space. We had our beloved Class leader with us again to day. Captain McFell & of course had a good class meeting.
