I desire to lie as a poor sinner at his feet, and to cry, Grace! grace! I find I am shortly to be called before the higher powers. Help me, my dear brother, by your prayers. In about nine days I think to leave Scotland. I commend you to Jesus, and desire to subscribe myself, dear brother B,
Yours affectionately in the bleeding Lamb, G. W.

O what a blessed thing it is, to have God's spirit witness with our spirit, that we are
