in some measure. This amount took the last pound in hand for this
object. How gladly would I have sent assistance to other brethren also,
but I had no more. Now I am in some degree supplied for this object. 4,
Very recently our tracts for gratuitous circulation were almost entirely
gone; but, before they were quite exhausted, the Lord sent more means,
so that about 200,000 could be ordered.

Oct. 23 Received 149l. 8s., the disposal of which was left with me. I
took of it 100l. for the support of the Orphans, for whom I had not 5l.
in hand, when it came, and the remainder for these objects, for which
still much is needed, in order to help labourers in the Gospel at home,
as well as foreign labourers, and in order to go on with the circulation
of the Holy Scriptures and Tracts, and to meet the expenses for the
various schools. This morning I had also the promise, that in about a
month 400l. should be paid to me for the work of the Lord. Thus, after a
season of several months, during which scarcely any large sums have been
received, the Lord is pleased, in answer to many prayers, to cause the
streams of His bounty to flow again more abundantly.

Oct. 26. From a visitor at Clifton 50l., which I took for the School,
Bible, Missionary, and Tract Objects.

Nov. 27. In great need there came in 100l., which was left to my

and the other for the Orphans, and am thus again helped, in answer to
many prayers.

with mercies. I received from one engaged in the work 2l. for missions.
-- From M. E. for missions 5s.--From E. 0. 5s.--From M. A. E. 4s.
4d.--From B. S. 1l. for missions.--Also 10l. for the support of

Jan. 2. From a few believers in Huntingdonshire 15s. 2d. for missions.

Jan. 3. From two Christian ladies in London 10l. for missions, with 10l.
for the Orphans.

Thus we were helped till I received on Jan. 8th the promise of the
donation of 5,700l., of which, as has been stated, 1,400l. was taken for
these objects. This, with what came in besides, from Jan. 8, to May 26,
1855, enabled me so a
