formed me that Brother Evans and Thos. Magee were doing all in their power to convert the Indians at St. Clair, but had not as yet been able to see the fruits of their labours. The Indians there are hardened.
Monday, September 1st. — Visited the houses of the Christian Indians, and was happy to find they had made great improvements in civilization: their houses looked pretty comfortable, and their crops of corn and potatoes promise more than sufficient for their own consumption. The Lord has done much for these people since I was here last, which is upwards of four years.
Wednesday 3rd. — Early in the morning I met my Indian brethren, and addressed them on the importance of vigilant watching and constant praying. I appointed to meet the pagan Indians on the Point this day at noon at the council house. In the afternoon we bade farewell to the kind Mission family, rode out to the Back Street, where we arrived before sunset, and lodged with Mr. Stafford for the night. I trust our visit to the Mission has been of some profit to the poor Indians.
Friday 5th. — We left Brother B.'s about noon, and went to the Camp ground, where we found scarcely any person except the Indian brethren from Munceytown. The Rev. W. Ryerson arrived on the ground about the time we came. He is the Presiding Elder of this District.
Sunday 7th. — Religion appears to be at a low ebb in these parts, and it was hard work to preach to stone. However, the Lord appears to be at work among the people. The Indian brethren had a powerful time, and the four pagan Indians; who came to this meeting, were brought down to the ground under the power of God, and they rose up, testifying that God for Christ's sake had forgiven them their sins. * *
Wednesday, October 15th. — About noon I left the Credit for the Saugeen Mission, via Goderich.
