murmur; The Lord has hitherto helped me.

3rd.

From hence we are to journey to Cohorse

, in Vermont.

.

At which
place we arrived on the 4th. I was much weary. We had two Meetings

the day
following, being first day; One of them was held in a School-house
in a good degree solid; the other in a Baptist Meeting house, large, but
interrupted by the people's going out and in: It is often so, when we consent
to hold meetings in the houses which belong to People of other Societies.
I believe we ought carefully to feel our way, even when their houses are offered
freely. Here I met with my friend Henry Hull from Nine Partners.

7th.

I had a Meeting in Sharon

near Bassett's, which was large; but it
suffered Loss by a friend's speaking rather too much about his own
Convincement: My Mind was distressed hereby; And my desires are that
Friends of the Ministry may be well guarded against branching out
improperly, when silence might be more useful near a Meeting's Conclusion.

We now set out for Danby, through a Mountainous Country, which
9th.

we reached the next day. My journey since I left my habitation, I
think amounts to near two thousand Miles by land and Water till
came to this place; And I am thankful that I feel in good measure
Comfortable after the Fatigue which has attended such a long Travel.

10th.

At Danby

we had a meeting that was large, and exercising. I thought
the people's minds were too much outward, and not attentive to the true founda-
tion.

The next day had a favoured meeting at Mountholly

on the green
mountain in Vermont, where no Meeting of Friends was ever held
