still, and suffer not my faith to fail,
till the happy hour shall strike which
summons me to meet thee, when I
shall say: "Here comes a sinner who

gone home at this time than recovered,
and both mind and body felt the effects
of this illness for a long period. In the
following <date>Sept</date>. several things combined
to weigh down my spirits, and every one
thought I was in a decline. As I kept
my trouble to myself, the burden was
the heavier, and I began to doubt my
Saviour's willingness to help. But he
appeared again to comfort me and put
my anxious grieving to shame. I was
especially cheered at this time, by the
privilege which he vouchsafed[?] me,
of joining in the celebration of the <date>16
of Sept.</date> with the servants of our Church.
