Tuesday 28 June 1836

This 24 hours mostly strong winds from the NW with
a heigh sea all resqusite sail set Steering to the
Eastward     Latt^d 37.50 South Long^d 69.41 East
In the everning read to the little flock 8^th chapt by
Jerimiah M^r Richards and myself prayed and
God seemed to be with us the Lord has once
more delivered us from the violence of the Sea
I am told by a Father of a family on board that
he is continually being soliceted by one who aught
to be a patern of all christain wisdom and virtues
that he aught not to send his children to family
worship his motives I cannot tell but after examining
my own is I trust pure to teach them Christain
virtues on the christain principles to reherce scripture
passages and hymns – which they have done and
still do without being solicited they appeart to be drawn
by love which is a great mercy if they git to heaven
