names but they entended to look more particularly after each one
therefore they soon settled Bands to which I was admitted & geting
a great love for them they were very much bless to me. Some of my
Companions being soon after this receiv'd into the Congregation it
Cause'd me many uneasy hours, as I was left, however I thought
to try & get to them though I knew not how to set about it, when almost
dispairing I often felt exceedingly encouraged and very much strengthened
I was not allow'd to go to the Congn meetings this drove me to the
determination to make my mind known which I did by a letter
to the Congn expressing my greatest desire to be embody'd with them.
My request was soon granted our in year 1745 this was an inex-
-pressible grace & favour to me past discribing being then very
chearfull I thought I had then got all that could make my happiness
compleat. In this way I went on for some time.
In the year 1747 the first Sisrs Oeconomy was settl'd at Oxhaighs I
having the favour to be one of the first, I look'd on it & accepted it with
a real thankfull heart, & the blessing which I then enjoy'd well never
be forgot by me. This happiness lasted for some time but before I was
aware it all vanishd away and I was left as much distresst as ever
being ready to determin to leave the Sisrs & take my thing in the world but my Consionec would not permit me to such
on this account I often whr'd to a lonly place, which I had found
quite to my mind, then I often lamented my state without the least
hopes of being helpt through, & sav'd at last but my best & faithfull
friend notwithstanding my negligence followed me endeavouring
to bring me to the place where I at all times bught to have a remaind
er at his feet, he thererfore took an Oppertunity to shen me my state
by nature & convincd me that noself working would avail me any
thing, but he was willing to take my care on himself. I was hereby
quite overcome, by his asuring me I was his, which so worked on me
that I was determin'd to be his intirly with soul & body, and as a poor
Sinner to receive grace at his hand.
