Sunday, February 13, 1876

Sunday, Feb. 13th.  Afternoon meeting was held at T. Mayberry's.  The Chittendens, Griffins and a few others were present.  We had singing, then prayer by Brother Cluff, then more singing.  I talked about forty minutes; D. Cluff, five; T. Mayberry a few.  His feelings were so tender he could hardly talk and brought others to tears.  I then took a few minutes explaining the first principles suited to the young members of the families.  After supper with Mrs. Griffin, I joined D. Cluff and Sister Mayberry in escorting her oldest daughter to where she works for a minister's wife, two miles, where she has been hearing his Gospel views.  I explained a number of questions she asked, and, before parting, she said she had been undecided, but now after the meeting and this further talk, she was ready for baptism.
