I praise God for it, tliis cliurch as they tell me here is in a Jairer way of tlourislung than ever. There are a great tiumy families come ovei- from the Dissenters &. many more talk of doing so. I have distributed tlie Books that the IL^noiable Society were jileased to send over for this people, & have taken the names of the people I gave them to, the more to oblige them to come to our Cluircli Constantly, and which I make use of when 1 tind any of them wanting.
