Savory's at Stoke Newington.
The day was spent, I trust, profitably, and on parting, about seven o'clock, we had a comfortable time, and something was expressed by my M.and self, and dear W.Allen.After taking a very affectionate leave, we posted on to Barnet.
My brother Thomas and J.A.Wilson took us up the next morning; and we four came down in the coach to Sheffield, and [the nest day] to Ecclesfield to dinner, and arrived at our humble cottage the 15th of the Twelfth Month, I trust with thankful hearts. * * * * * It is appropriate to give in this place some account of Martha Savory's character and Christian experience.
That our notice is brief and incomplete, is owing to the loss of most of her own memoranda, and of the letters she addressed to those with whom she was on intimate terms.
She possessed, it will be seen, an intellectual character and disposition, as well as an experience, very different from those of her husband.
