I began seriously to doubt Cummings honesty - he had given
me high hopes of Kintore, as well as Inverury.
He had started a Society at Inverury he said, I only found 3 or 4 who
would acknowledge the principle I could get no Church - there was a sermon in
the Methodists, and they would not give me the Independents. I got the promise of the working mens Hall
from my kind host, and there I determined to lecture.
I sent the Bellman through the town who called a meeting for
me. A most miserable concern it was not
about 24 were present - but I lectured about 2 hours - 2 names were added. They have no perserverence here and it will
require two or three more lectures to set the thing a going.
