she hath loved much." A dying saint was once heard to
say: "Hunt up all my sins; pile them mountain high; one breath of
faith sweeps them all away; and the more I'm forgiven the louder I'll
sing."

Ah, brethren and sisters, we can rejoice that the Lord condescended to
be a guest with us poor sinners. He proclaims salvation to every one
of us. And inasmuch as he has come in to sup with us and we with him,
let us hold him by the feet, ever welcome to our hearts, and he will
abide with us forever.

It is in a feeling of unavoidable sadness we now approach the closing
weeks of Brother Kline's life. We will now, with great care, trace his
steps going to and returning from the last Annual Meeting he was ever
permitted to attend.

FRIDAY, May 6. This is the day on which he started. He stayed the
first night with Reuben Regelman, then living in the head of what was
then called Germany, a remote section of Brock's Gap, and so called on
account of the number of original German people who settled there near
the close of the Revolutionary War. Regelman lived in a deep mountain
retreat, just in the line of what appeared to Brother Kline his safest
route.

SATURDAY, May 7. This day he crossed the Shenandoah mountain by a
near-cut pathway, coming down into Sweedlin valley, in Pendleton
County. He next crossed the Sweedlin mountain by a pathway, at the
foot of which flows the beautiful mountain river called the South
Fork. He followed this stream about two miles through a deep gorge
between Sweedlin mountain and the South Fork mountain, and got to the
widow Nelly Henkel's on top of the latter mountain in time for dinner.
From there he went to Sister Mary Bargdoll's on the South Mill creek,
where he stayed all night. He was now fifty miles on his way. He
reports the weather as being very pleasant so far.

SUNDAY, May 8. This day he visited Enoch Hyre's. From there he went to
old Brother Parks's. He then stopped on his way to read and pray with
old Sister Parks, who was entirely blind. From here he went to Brother
Martain Cosner's, where he had afternoon meeting, and preached from
one of his favorite texts, the Lord's invitation to all, given in
Matt. 11:28, 29, 30. He stayed all night at Brother Cosner's. All the
families he visited this day were then living northwest of Petersburg,
in Grant County, West Virginia. He reports another beautiful day. He
is now sixty-nine miles from home.

MONDAY, May 9. This day he had meeting by
