No. 4, and I do sincerely thank God that I went, because now I can see how far from the Lord I was wandering and so unintentionally because I never meant to be a sinner, but I just wanted to have a good time. But now, I can see where some of those good times lead us. Captain, I often think how brave you must have been to go on with the work at No. 4, with so little help, 'that is, earthly help.'
