worthy to pick up the crumbs under his Master’s table; and on another, that Christ was his only hope; that He had paid his ransom, and that He would receive him into glory. With another class of visitors, those of his family and friends, he was equally decided in declaring what great things God had done for his soul, and what necessity there was that they should turn and repent if they would be saved. Indeed, a discourse of this kind had made some of them think him insane. He had told his relations who had come to him, that he was formerly unclean and unholy; that they were so at that moment. He therefore entreated them to apply to _Him_ who had cast out the unclean devils into the swine, to cleanse their souls. On all occasions, when he could, he manifested the same desire to instruct others, and lead them to that refuge which he had found so precious to his own soul. On Thursday, October 1, Mr. Durell records a very interesting visit which he paid the prisoner: interesting, as it showed the state of mind in which he found him. “As we approached the passage,” says Mr. Durell, “we could hear the loud ejaculations of the prisoner’s prayers.” The gaoler observed, that he always found him thus employed when he was left alone in the cell. Mr. Durell read to him the account of our Saviour’s death, from Matthew xxvii., and concluded with a prayer, at the end of which Jolin was much affected. He exhibited, on this occasion, the deepest sense of gratitude to all about him; and Mr. Hammond, his advocate, who was also present, bore witness to the calmness and the change of Jolin’s state of mind. To the latter gentleman, he, on that occasion, expressed his sense of the great services rendered to him on his trial. He sat up on his bed, and clasping both his hands together, said most earnestly, “Mr. Hammond, I thank you over and over again for the pains you have taken for me. I regret that I have nothing to give to reward you as you deserve.” This same sense of gratitude led him constantly to express his thanks to his gaoler, whose kindness and attention, those who were so often going out and in the prison can fully testify. But it was not on this occasion alone, for the evidence afforded to his state of mind was very remarkable. The acting lieutenant-governor, the dean, the mayor, a leading medical man who came to inquire into his insanity, clergymen, dissenting ministers, his advocate, his relations, his attendants, all appear to have come away from the prison with a common conviction, that the power of God had been at work in producing the wonderful change which they witnessed.
