Foreign Mission, and she is to be married to Mr Tracy he is to translate
the Bible in china She spend the Summer at Miss Grant at Ipswich
to prepare her the mission, and in giving up her self I hope she
obey her lord jesus, that whosoever will save his life shall lose it,
and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it our
saviour also says, that he who having put his hand to the
plough looketh back is not fit for the kingdom of God
19 this morning is rain continues cold East wind and the
Spring is very backward for the season, and I feel the
effect me very much. My dear Miss Emerson left us this morning
after prayers, she conversed with Mr Knapp on the great subject of
Religion I hope that will be blessed to him, her desire to do good all
ways and she recommend the religion of her saviour,
Tis the mind that makes the body rich
And as the sun breaks through the darkest clouds
So honor peareth in the meanest habit
