Whaly preached very well. Aunt feels very
lonely says other folks has children

she will do another sumer things will remain
as they are this winter. The next I think
thee will want to here from is my dear R.
I have no very late accounts his last date
that I have received was the 27th of last month
it takes a letter about a week after the
date of it to reach me from that part
of Canada. up to the time of his last writing
they'd had 13 meetings since Pellham Qt -
[deleted]about[/deleted] two meetings a day nearly all the
time. Rufus says it is the greatest place
to get up large meetings he ever saw. Friends
& others make nothing of going 10 or 12 miles
to an evening meeting. they met with
many very near & dear friends some
of whom had been with them so much
it seemed hard to part with them but
they expected to leave the next day

[page break]

for Pickering to be there to there
Monthly M. last wek to the [Mon?] Meet.
Young Street & this week to that Q Meeting
after that they will probaby leave soon
for Adrion. Rufus thinks he is in
his right place. Johnathan has much service some
deep proveing seasons but the Lord had
helped him out of them all & he had been
very much favoured.

sends her love to thee Mary & the rest.
