14.—“Sunday. I preached at 11 a. m. Large crowd in grove. Good liberty, and good attention. Athey preached at 3:00 p. m., and did well. Returned home.”
The records of a few days immediately following may also be of interest.
24.—“Drove with my family to father’s, fifteen miles distant.”
25.—“Started for Hessville quarterly. Drove thirty-seven miles to Father Mason’s.”
26.—“Drove to Bee Gum Station fifteen miles further east. Good meeting in afternoon. Preached at night.”
27.—“Sunday. Discoursed at 10:30 a. m. on ‘The New Testament Church.’ Preached again at three o’clock on ‘Benevolence and Honesty.’ Led song service. Drove fifteen miles back to Brother Mason’s.”
28.—“Left at 6 a. m. and drove thirty-seven miles to father’s.”
