We visited Salem and Vassalborough Quarterly meetings, taking meetings on our way thither, as we did in returning to Sandwich Quarter, which we also attended; from thence I returned home with my dear husband, who met me at that place, and was favored to find our family and friends well, which was cause of gratitude to the author of every blessing.Although I was frequently in this journey tried with poverty of spirit, and , suffered much from indisposition of body, yet, nevertheless it pleased Almighty goodness at some meetings which we attended to manifest Himself to be near in opening the way for some relief to my exercised mind, although mostly in a few words, for I was fearful of exceeding the bounds of truth's requiring... ...
