Monday 27th. — Started from Hamilton, and arrived at the Mission House, Grand River, about sunset; found those of our Indian brethren who were at home still persevering in the service of the Great Spirit.
Tuesday 28th. — In our morning prayers my soul was wonderfully blest; we all rejoiced while worshipping the Great Spirit. Attended the general prayer meeting in the evening, when Brother E. Stoney preached to us and held a class meeting. We had a powerful time — saints rejoiced, and sinners wept and mourned.
March 4th. — My brother John having business at the Court of Requests at Brantford, I accompanied him down to see the proceedings of the Court; was much grieved at the immoral conduct of some of the white people.
Sunday 5th. — After early prayer meeting, I attended the Sunday School. About noon Mr. Crawford preached, and I exhorted — attended the class; had a happy prayer meeting in the evening. Oh Lord, keep me humble and thankful until death.
Monday 6th. — Went up to see my father, where I stayed all night.
Thursday 9th. — Spent a happy hour in secret prayer and meditation this evening. I feel sensible of the great benefit derived from secret devotion, and mourn that I too often neglect this great duty. How true are the words of our Saviour, "When thou prayest enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father who is in secret, and thy Father who seeth in secret shall reward thee openly."
Saturday 11th. — Was visited this day by a clergyman of the name of Carter, who preached to us from these words: "Our Father which art in Heaven." In the afternoon went to Brantford, and had some conversation with the above named gentleman about our Indian affairs at the Credit.
