• Notes

  From Christian Newcomer's Diary Sunday February 25th -- Rode to Peter Kemps; he was very ill and rejoiced to see me, stretched forth his hand and said, Oh! Brother, how ardently did I desire to see you once more in this world; I know my time is short, soon I shall try the realities of another world. Being very weak, he was not able to say much. I asked him whether he had the love of Jesus dwelling in his soul. He replied, ?Oh yes, bless the Lord for it. He continued to grow more feeble, until the following morning, when between 5 and 6 o-clock he expired in the arms of Jesus. At the time ef his death we were all at prayer around the bed. 27th. This morning the remains of Br. Peter Kemp were interred; a great many people attended the funeral. Br. Geeting preached the funeral discourse, from Psalna 8, v. 5,1 followed him in the English language. 28th- I returned home. .
