MY DEAR SISTER, Near INISKILLEN, May 23, 1773.
I THANK you for your comfortable letter. Right “precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.” Where there is any eminent instance of mercy in this kind, it is almost always a means of convincing and converting others. It is a season one would wish to improve to the uttermost; for then the windows of heaven are open.
