dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be
their God, and they shall be my people."

The tone and spirit of this tract, is the kernel, if I may say so, of his
deepest religious convictions.

He gave me a number of New Testaments for distribution, as he did also to
one or two others of our missioners. The following letter accompanies
the parcel:--

"My dear Mr. Wardle,--I have sent thirty Testaments for you and thirty
for Mr. Fielden. Will you kindly oblige by marking in each the
following passages, viz.:--

Matt. chap. 2, V. 28, 29. "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are
heavy laden, and I will give you rest."

"Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in
heart; and ye shall find rest unto your souls."

Gal. ch. 5, v., 19., 25. "Now the works of the flesh are manifest,

idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife,
seditions, heresies, 21. Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings,

Kingdom of God." 22. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy,
peace, long suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23. Meekness,
temperance; against such there is no law. 42. And they that are
Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If
we live in the spirit, let us walk in the spirit."

Also I John ch. 4, v. 15. "Whosoever shall confess, etc."

He also published a little work entitled "Christ and His members; or the
in-dwelling of God, the root of faith in Christ." One or two quotations
may be sufficient to show the nature or scope of the work, a copy now
lies before me.

"Belief or faith in Jesus being the Son of God, is the distinguishing
spiritual mark of the members of Christ's body; it is a fruit which
springs from a root, or source, from which it is sustained, and
increased. This root is the indwelling of God the Holy Ghost in the
soul. This indwelling gives faith or belief in the fact that even as the
sun gives light, or the fire gives warmth, and as there can be no warmth
without fire, and no light without the sun, neither can there be any
belief in Jesus, without the indwelling of God in the soul."

He wrote me from Liverpool as follows:

"My dear Mr. Wardle, do n
