30M. -- Rode to Galoway, a part of New broad Alban, 8 miles. This town, like all others in this quarter, is very much divided. The Presbyterians are, however, taking measures for settling the Gospel by uniting with a part of Amsterdam.

Oct. \st. -- Preached to 35 persons, at Deacon Otis's -- y^ people attentive. Visited several families. This town does not stand in great need of missionary labours ; and yet as much so as any part of y^ country that I have yet seen

2d. -- Spent the day in study.

Sd. -- Sunday. Preached to a large audience, in a meeting house -- the first house I have preached in since I left Deerfield. I find the people in this part of the world much more attentive apparently in y^ time of service tlian in New-England. It is the practice of this people always to have a contribution when they are supplied. Received $2. 16c. 5 mills. This chli. contains 50 members. Gave one of Lothrop's Cliallenges, and of Dodridge's Address to Deacon Otis, to be circulated in the neighborhood.

4tk. -- Rode to the Northwest to Northampton, 18 miles. This lies a little North of Sacondaga river, upon a branch of the Hudson, 50 miles Northwest of Albany. In the evening preached a lecture to 40 persons -- and appointed another on Wednesday 2 miles to y^ North. This is a large town ; but y« people are divided into 8 or 10 different sects ; and no one keeps up meetings upon ye Sabbath. It is probably as corrupt a place as Sandy Creek ; yet I find here and there a good character.
