WENDESDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1870.

We spent a very pleasant forenoon at the house of our friend. After dinner Bro Harris and I went out for a drive. This evening I went with him to his protracted meeting at the Bethel Chapel. We went through Harrisburg. The meeting was rather interesting. Souls are being saved. Seasons of sweet communion are still granted me, and my will is becoming more & more lost in His will. He knows the desires of my heart & He alone can give.

Mother and I started for Dundass about nine or ten. Our visit at St. George has been a very pleasant and agreeable one throughout. It did not take us long to go down to Dundass Found our friends there all well. I went down to the Plains Chapel with Bro. {illegible} to attend a Missionary Meeting there. This also was a pleasant little trip. Met with my old Friend Benjamin Clement, also made the acquaintance of several others. Among the rest Mr. & Mrs. Jeffry of the latter I formed a high opinion.
