the letters received from the brethren, to whom I have sent money, have
shown to me their great need. Some were in the greatest necessity when
my remittances were received by them. Under these circumstances a
donation of 117l. 2s. 7d. came in this morning, of which I took 50l. for
these objects, and 67l. 2s. 7d. for the Orphans.

Aug. 19. Today all the means for home and foreign labourers were again
gone. Also for the support of the various schools and the circulation of
the Holy Scriptures and Tracts, scarcely anything remained; 48l. were in
hand, yet, considering the liabilities for rent, &c., not more than 5l.
of this sum at most could be considered available. When I had,
therefore, so little, there came in 267l. Thus my heart is made glad,
for I am able to send help to many brethren in these days of peculiar
distress.

Oct. 26. This evening there was given to me anonymously at Salem Chapel
a sealed paper, which contained two sovereigns and these words: "For
what most needs." I took this donation for these objects, as I have now
scarcely any money left towards paying the weekly salaries of the
teachers in the Day Schools next Tuesday. Oct. 31st. We have not been so
poor with regard to these objects since the accounts were closed. But I
hope in God.

Oct. 28. I received from Calne 2l.

Oct. 30. Received from Bath 1l.

Oct. 31. There having come in this 5l., and 1l. 10s. 9d. besides, by the
sale of Tracts, I had enough to pay the weekly salaries of the
teachers.

Nov. 4. Saturday. There were now again only a few shillings in hand
towards paying next Tuesday the weekly salaries of the teachers in the
Day Schools, when I received this morning from the neighbourhood of
Leeds 5l.

Nov. 5. There was put into the boxes at Bethesda 2s. 6d.

Nov. 6. Received 1l. 0s. 6d.

No-v. 7. This evening I found, that, by what had come in during the 4th,
5th and 6th in the way of donations, and by the sale of Tracts during
this week, there was more than enough to pay the weekly salaries.

Nov. 9. Only a few shillings were left in my hands on Tuesday evening,
the 7th instant, towards the weekly salaries of the teachers, for the
coming week. Also almost all the Tracts are again gone, and it is nearly
four weeks, since I paid out the last money in hand for missionary
objects. As to this latter point, my heart had been especially longing
to be able to send again help to home and foreign labourers, knowing how
very great the n
