Memoir and Diary of John Yeardley, Minister of the Gospel

CHAPTER IX
2/28

The love of God was felt among us, and the Principal said, at parting, that he had not before been so impressed with our views.

I sent him Tuke's "Principles," and he told me yesterday he was attentively studying it.

My dear M.Y.told me it had been given her to believe we were in our right place, and that we were called by religious intercourse to bear witness for our Lord and Master and his good cause.
I am afraid, he remarks in a letter in which he describes their service at Schaffhausen, I am afraid thou wilt think me too minute in my details; but really when I enter into the feeling which accompanied us in these visits, it seems as if I could scarcely quit it.
They spent the 29th at Schaffhausen in close Christian communion with two pious families.

To C.K.particularly, at whose house they dined, they felt so nearly united, that they scarcely knew how to part from her.
We have cause to be thankful, says J.Y., for our visit to Schaffhausen; but if we were more faithful we should be more useful.

Our friends were quite inclined for us to have had a meeting with them, but we were too fearful to propose it.
