., to be used for all the various objects, "as the present need
might require." I took, therefore, 50l. for the support of the Orphans,
and 50l. for the other objects, which are also in great need. Received
also from Wandsworth Road 1l. 10s. 8d.; and in the course of the day 2l.
3s. 3d., through the boxes at the New Orphan House. Thus we are again
helped for the present.

July 19. For some time past I have been under an engagement to leave
Bristol at the end of this month, or in the beginning of August, for
about four weeks, to labour at Sunderland. On this account I have
besought the Lord during the last days that He would be pleased to send
me some means for my own expenses, but especially that I might be able
to leave some money behind, to last at least for some time. Yesterday
the Lord was pleased to begin answering my request, in sending means for
the support of the Orphans. I received from Lymington 5l.--From
Tregenda 10s.--From Thetford 10s.--From Perth 1l.--From
Kilmarnock 5l.--By sale of Reports 18s. 10d.--Proceeds of an
Orphan Box 1l. 5s. 9 1/2 d. Today I have received from South Brent 1s.
-- From Middlesex 50l.--Ditto 18s.--From Clifton 5l.--From
Dudbridge 8s.--Through the boxes in the New Orphan House 7l. 1s. 3d.
-- By sale of Reports 1l. 8s.--Returned on paying an account 2s. 4d.
-- From a visitor at Clifton 50l. and a gold chain. The donor kindly
wished me to retain 10l. for my own expenses.--From Kingsbridge 2s.

me more on the following days. I record the income for the Orphans:--
