May God give us grace to acquit ourselves faithfully in his fear. Dr. White gives a flattering account of the colony, as you will learn by a personal interview with him, which you will doubtless have. I have but a moment's time to write as our camps are on the eve of moving and Dr. W. is in the same condition.
We hope to reach the place of our destination in about 8 weeks, if God will give us a share in your petitions to the Father of all our blessings, that we may have grace to plant and water churches in the true apostolic spirit.
I have not time to write to our relatives in the state of N. York. You will confer a favor on us and them should you insert a note in the Baptist Register stating that we are all in health.
Yours respectfully,
EZRA FISHER.
