I was greatly interested in his preaching for ten years.

He has for the last nineteen years preached at South Farms now the town of Morris.

This Mr.Parmelee was a merchant till he was thirty years old, and was then converted in some mysterious manner, as St.Paul was, and left his business to preach the gospel.

He proved to be one of the soundest preachers in the land, and I have no doubt but he will be one of the bright and shining lights in heaven.

Oh! what happy days I saw during those ten years, little dreaming of the great troubles that were before me, or that I should experience in after life, which are now resting so heavily upon me, many times seeming greater than I can bear.
