Now to the opening of the Quarterly Meeting for worship, which was like the day of Pentecost, when the place was filled with a rushing mighty wind from heaven.

The first stream of ministry flowed again through W.H., who appeared from these words: "In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me and drink." It was indeed applicable; for all seemed athirst, and were invited and admitted to drink of the waters of life freely; those who were afar off drew nigh, and those who were near were enabled to acknowledge the might of Him who had called them to his footstool, and crowned them with his presence.

Huldah Sears and Mary Watson were also much favored in testimony.

Immediately afterwards M.R.appeared a long time in supplication, and then H.S.both very powerfully; so that goodness seemed to rise higher and higher, until we swam in divine life.
