In South Carolina. 375 



"We breakfasted with kind and attentive Anthony Fos- 

 ter; and continued on to Robert Hailes's, Friday. 

 Beached the Fish-dam in the evening. Our Sister 

 Glenn went to glory about twelve months ago; her 

 exit was made in the full triumph of faith. Saturday, 

 crossed Broad Biver at Clark's Ferry, and pressed 

 forward to Mr. Mean's. Here, and it seldom happens 

 that I seek such a shelter, we were under the roof of

 few people. We have a pretty chapel here; John 

 Buchanan and Jesse Harris are chiefs in this work. 

 On Monday we came to J. Jenkin's; after six years' 

 rest and local usefulness, he means to travel again.

 his son James will be a g reat and holy preacher. I 

 am under the necessity of taking emetics. Wednes- 

 day, reading. Thursday, I preached in the evening. 

 Friday, had a cold ride to Black Biver, where I was 

 compelled to take to my bed again. Saturday, en-

Sabbath, 16. I knew not if I could get to the new 

 house; I went and was helped of the Lord: the house 

 was filled, and I spoke plainly. On Monday I visited 

 Thomas Boon; his father was the first to entertaii) 

 me at the Lower Santee Ferry. We found our dinner
