The whole of the chapel was crowded to excess. People coming from all parts of the bay with a chair from any person they could make their friend, filled the landings. The stairs leading up the whole of the three stories (which are carried up outside the buildings in this country) were occupied, by four persons on each. And then the poor creatures went into our hall, and laid their ears on the floor to listen from beneath. This is a congregation in Jamaica; and often we have them standing in the streets exposed to the rays of a vertical sun! Behind and before, on the right hand and on the left, we are surrounded, yea crowded, in every possible way. The result is, that on the evenings of the sabbath we wear a completely emaciated appearance. Oh, say you, this is not right, you ought not to do so. I am fully aware that we ought not to do so, but the remedy is not with us. You may try, and try again, to overcome such feelings, but you cannot. I should pity that man who professed to have the welfare of souls at heart who would not be aroused by such overwhelming scenes as we have here. When persons have come from two to twenty or thirty miles to hear the word of eternal life, to disappoint more than can possibly be helped, is what I cannot, what I dare not, do. For as I value my own immortal soul, as I prize the joys of heaven and dread the miseries of hell, so in proportion I consider it my duty to let all, as far as in me lies, hear the truths of that gospel which is able through Christ to raise poor perishing creatures from the degradation of sin to a life of righteousness and holiness by faith in him. Pardon me, my dear brother, pardon me for giving vent to the flowing tear while I am again considering that the remedy is not with us. Here is myself and there are my brethren with congregations which are enormous. We cannot refrain from shedding a tear again and again, because we are not able to do more for their thirsty souls. The remedy rests with friends at home. I often think that I must as I am now doing fall, very soon fall, a sacrifice to the cause in which I have embarked. Through mercy I fear it not. I am happy, truly happy, in my work, and feel confident that should I be a martyr to the cause, I shall receive a martyr's reward. BAHAMAS.
