". . . Last evening a letter was received form our rector, giving us reasons to expect his return this week, and, of course, this will deprive us the pleasure of seeing you. . . . The Presbyterians received more than twenty accessions yesterday, and the Baptists several. These are the results of a protracted meeting. Our own people stood pretty firm, nor do I think we have lost any permanent members."
