The Single SisHanh Tordoff has left the following
concerning her course of Life.
I was born at Houme in
the Lordship of Tong Decbr ye 10th 1759 baptiz'd by
the Brn in my childhood I frequented the Childrens
meetings which prov'd a great blessing to my heart &
I often prayd our dr Savto make me quite happy,
the Sistrs Oeconomy was then in Houme Lane where I injoyd
the Love of the Sistrs and had also our classes there,
which were blest to my heart. March 25th 1770, I
was taken into the great girls choir, which I lookt ??
upon as as a great favour, and got a desire to live with
the Sistrs which was granted me, and July 15th 1770.
I went to live in the Sistrs Oeconomy at Gumersal, for 
which I was very thankfull to our dr Savr but- 
finding many things to come go thro with which I did not
expect, it went very hard with me for some years, I had
not my health very well, and having now to feel more & more
every day, how poor and sinfull I was by nature I stood
in need of the love and forbearance of the sistrs and 
sometimes thought I felt more then it was possible for me to come
thro' with, which it would have been the case had not my dr lord
Slept in, & thro his tender loving and kind heart towards
me help'd me thro, which he had has often done and always
provd my friend; my forward and hasty Temper often could me
and the Sistrs pain, and no I now begun to feel the natural 
corruption and deep depracity which lay in me and being very
reservd, I did not like to tell it and was afraid any Body

Register.
