In various ways, the day was very well spent. Nothing
of interest took place in the a.m. In the pem.as I was
coming from my dinner, I stopped in at Belgika for a few
minutes & met a man who was ill & suffering from Cold.
Capt. Cremonini asked if I could so anything for him & I
told him yes, so I brot him to my house with me & fixed
up some medicine for him. Nest-day—he-had~e-slisht

ually relieving the sick Van den Borge.

I went to service this a.m. after which I went down to
call on my i11 friend. I found him with a slight fever,
because he had not followed out the directions which T

harsh & stern words & they were carried out. I was told
a few minutes ago. Int p.m. I went to service & a Mr.
Lowen conducted the meeting. I had the pleasure of

bringing out a Mr. Von den Eynde. At night he came out
again with me.
