Nitschmann. Feb. 16th.
It was a beautiful day, and the land looked very fair. At two o’clock we reached Tybee, and were all very happy. The song service was blessed, and we thanked God with prayer and praise.

Wesley. Feb. 5th.
Between two and three in the afternoon God brought us all safe into the Savannah River. We cast anchor near Tybee Island, where the grove of pines, running along the shore, made an agreeable prospect, showing, as it were, the bloom of spring in the depths of winter.

Nitschmann. Feb. 17th.
I went on shore with Mr. Oglethorpe, and we together fell on our knees and thanked God, and then took a boat to Savannah. I went at once to the Brethren, and we rejoiced to meet again. I found the Brethren well, and looked with wonder at what they had accomplished, went with Toeltschig and Spangenberg to the garden, and also received letters from Herrnhut. Spangenberg had to go immediately to Mr. Oglethorpe to discuss many things with him.
