entirely left him. ♦ “countenance” replaced with “continuance” per Errata *This spirit, he says, used to direct him in dreams to go to such a place and hunt, assuring him he should meet with success, which accordingly proved so. And when he had been there some time, the spirit would order him to another place. So that he had success in hunting, according to the great man’s promise. *There were some times when this spirit came upon him in a _special_ manner, and he was full of what he saw in the great man. And then, he says, he was _all light_, and not only _light_ himself, but it was light all _around him_, so that he could see through men, and knew the thoughts of their hearts. These _depths of Satan_ I leave to others to fathom, and cannot guess what conceptions of things these creatures have at the times when they call themselves _all light_. But my interpreter tells me, that he heard one of them tell a certain Indian the secret thoughts of his heart. The case was this; the Indian was bitten with a snake, and was in extreme pain. Whereupon the _diviner_ (who was applied to) told him, that at _such a time_ he had promised, the next deer he killed he would sacrifice it to some _great power_, but had broken his promise. And now, said he, that great power has ordered this snake to bite you for your neglect. The Indian confessed it was so, but said he had never told any body of it. But as _Satan_, no doubt, excited the Indian to make that promise, it was no wonder he should be able to communicate the matter to the conjurer. [On Friday and Saturday, he was very much amiss; but yet preached to his people on Saturday. His illness continued on the sabbath; but he preached notwithstanding, both parts of the day; and after the public worship, endeavoured to apply divine truths to the consciences of some, addressing them personally: several were in tears, and some appeared much affected. But he was extremely wearied with the service, and was so ill at night, that he could have no rest; but remarks, that “God was his support.” On Monday, he continued very ill; but calm and composed, resigned to the divine dispensations.]
