Further account of the intended Orphan House for Seven Hundred Poor
Children, bereaved of both parents by death, from May 26, 1852, to May
26, 1853.

In the last chapter on this subject, it was stated, that on May 26,
1852, 1 had actually in hand towards this object 3,530l. 9s. 0 1/4 d.;
and now I go on to relate how the Lord has been pleased to help me
further since then; but, for the sake of brevity, I can only refer to
the more remarkable donations.

June 18. Received 5s. 7d. from the Orphans in the Girl's Department of
the New Orphan House, in commemoration of the anniversary of the opening
of the New Orphan House, which took place this day three years. Received
also 3s. 9d. from the Orphan Boys. These little sums from these children
have given me much joy. I likewise received this day a donation of
200l., of which the donor kindly wished me to keep 20l. for my own
personal expenses, and to use the 180l. as might be most needed. I took
of this sum 60l. for the Building Fund, 60l. towards the support of the
300 Orphans, and 60l. for the various other objects of the Scriptural
Knowledge Institution.

June 22. Today I was informed that there had been paid into the hands of
my bankers 500l. This sum is from a donor whom I have never seen, but
whom God evidently has led, in answer to my daily supplications, and to
those of my fellow-labourers, to help me in His service. This donation
has exceedingly refreshed my spirit, and has led me to expect more and
more help from God. As this 500l. is left at my disposal, I took of it
one-third for the Building Fund, another third for the current expenses
for the 300 Orphans, and the last third for the School--, Bible--,
Tract--, and Missionary Fund of the Scriptural Knowledge Institution.

July 1. 50l. The money being left to my disposal, I took half for the
Building Fund--and half for the School--, Bible--, Tract-- and
Missionary Objects.

July 29. Received from one of the Orphans, formerly under our care, the
following lines: "Dear Sir, will you please to accept the enclosed
silver chain for the Building Fund, and the 3s. 6d. for your personal
use, from your grateful Orphan, * * * *." This donation gave me much
joy.

Aug. 6. From an Irish friend 53l., "As a small acknowledgment of the
donor's gratitude to his Heavenly Father for enriching him with the
unsearchable riches of Christ, and to his dear Redeemer for loving him,
and giving Hims
