This morning I employed myself in copying temperance songs
etc., the morning being extremely wet.
When the weather cleared up I travelled to Montrose, had an interview
with the Pres. & Secty who conducted me to Mr. Sharp(?) of the Review, who
received me kindly, and promised me a licence to lecture, would I but stay a
few days in the quarter. Mr. Sharp (?)
seems a frank open kind man. His
appearance bespeaks him to be a man of intense study. He is about the middle size, rather thin
(doubtless on account of great mental exertion). He was exceedingly kind to me.
I was in a manner idle this evening I attended a Prayer
Meeting which was in the family where I lodged and was much delighted with it,
it was in connection with the Scottish Baptists.
