two or three days _I_ waited on them again. Mr. Morress said to me, "_Well_, Mr. C., we have opend your case to Mr. Diot. Mrs. [...], him long with you; he is a great fool to sto_p here_ so long as he have, I wounder how he have _not gone_ long before now. But Mr. D. said you was _best to_ stay a little longer," and added, "Mr. C., proveden_ce has_ presarved and provided for you in a mer_ciful manner_, so I would advise you to wait with p_atience, and you_ will be deliverd in God's due time." I th_anked them and_ took my l_eave of_ them, wondring w_here that_ should come from, for it was the _words of a spir_itual man. I went in one of my solatry cornars and there sung, and blessed and praised God. I can almoste feel at this moment how happy and thankfull I was, so well and contented equaly to stay as to go; and if it was the will of God, I should stay there all my lifetime, still, good is the will of the Lord, may His will be done. So I continued to my work aboute the boats and vessels as before, walking in the same self-denial, until the 6 or 7 of Augst, 1795, when, unexpected, on Saturday received a letter from Mr. M----h to meet him at St. Paul's next monday, that he had obtained a pasport for himself, famely, and me to go to England, and Mr. Clansee was then at Brest, who had then got a nutral ship to take us home. Well, then, _this_ was a great as well as unexpected news, and many _times_ before then thought that I should be very glad and thank_ful_ if I ever lived to see such chainge.

So that on Munday morn_ing I set out_ for S^{t.} Paul's _in_ C^{o.} with Mrs. Diot and her two little _children and t_wo sarvants riding in a coach, and me on horseback, where we arrived at S^{t.} Paul's at ten in the morning, and there joind Mr. and Mrs. M. and their loving famely. Staid there untel Tuesday morning with my dear old friend and Mother, Madam Esel le Pleary, and set out for Landernau in C^{o.} with the two maidens. We arrived at Landernau aboute three in the after noon. Wensday morning breakfast with my two old friends, Mr. and Mad^{m.} Elel Renard, and old jen^{t.} and young lady, who was his daughter. We was many months prisonars togither, but then all librated, and they in their own house. Same morning took a boat, and at four in the afternoon arrived on board the ship _in_ Brest harbar, where we met all the fam_ily_ together, the same ten of us that was stop_ped to_gether through a merical of mercy in d_eed, and_ not one hair of our heads diminished. _Praise be_ to God, here was another chainge. This ship was form_erly an Engl_ish frigate, then under Danish coulars, _and_ the Capt^{n.} an English man. The _first night_ I sleept on the cabin flooar covered _with a_ great coat,
