f which I took 100l. for these objects, in
order to be able to send some help to brethren who labour in the Word,
and to have means for going on with the circulation of Bibles and
Tracts; and the remaining 90l. I took for the support of the Orphans.
Precious help, the fruit of many prayers!

Sept. 30. From Clerkenwell for missions 10l.

Oct. 13. 20l. from Austin Friars, London. I had been praying again and
again for more means for these objects, and had sent out 100l. within
the last few days to brethren who labour in the Word, but desired to
send out more.

Oct. 23. From London 20l.

Nov. 6th. Since Oct. 16th I had not been able to send any further help
to brethren who labour in the Word, much as I desired to do so, having
only means enough to meet the necessary demands for the Schools, and the
circulation of Bibles and Tracts, which amounted, from that time, to
about 120l. But I prayed daily for means for missionary objects and the
circulation of Bibles and Tracts. Today I received 180l., the whole of
which I have taken for these objects, as the disposal of it was left to
me, having great reason to believe that many labourers in the Gospel are
in need of help, and having still so many openings for the circulation
of the Holy Scriptures and Tracts. The Lord be magnified for this
precious answer to prayer!

Dec. 13. During November I was enabled to send 200l. to brethren who
labour in the Gospel at Home and Abroad, and also 197l. in October; but
during this month I have as yet been only able to send out 12l. My often
repeated prayer has been, that the Lord would give me the joy and
privilege of sending out a considerable sum during this month also. This
prayer was again repeated, when I rose this morning, and saw the windows
covered with ice; for I thought then of the needy brethren in this cold
weather, connected with the high price of provisions. It was not long
after, when I received 153l., to be used in the Lord's service, as
most needed. I took of this, 100l. for brethren labouring in the Gospel
at Home and Abroad, and 53l. for the support of the Orphans, and thus
have the joy of being able to send at least 100l. at once, waiting upon
the Lord for more.

Jan. 31, 1850. As the fruit of very many prayers, I have received today
100l., the whole of which I have put to these funds, the application of
the money being left with me; as there was nothing at all left now for
the circulation of Bibles and Tracts, and t
