granted to me May 21st 1759. I
was now very happy and comfort-
able, felt quite at home, and
thought I wanted nothing more.
The 13th of Nov. the same year I
was rec'd into the Congn with 26
others; having made no previous

be, which humbled me at the Lords
feet to seek grace and pardon, and
when the whole Congn had missed
the H. Comn for 3 successive
times, the feeling which pervaded
us all when we again had the
