Dear Frank: – – – I have been very much out of health for a fortnight, and quite
sick during the last week. Sunday, 15th, I got up from a bed of severe sickness to
preach. God gave me strength for the occasion. And though it was with much difficulty I
got to the hall, only four doors away, I preached three long sermons too large and
attentive audiences. The church here is growing in faith and knowledge, and is of good
report without. A very general interest is awakened, and not a few of the clergy of
different churches attend our meetings, especially Methodists and Roman Catholics. I
am mending in health, and have sat up much of the day to-day, and hope to be out to
morrow. James J Strang.
