[November] 28. Fri. [1862]

Rode to picket with letters, bot. two chickens at "3 levies"
ea. of a colored woman bot. them in alive tied to Saddle.
Visited hospitals -- found one man very sick -- talked with
him & prayed -- urged him to immediate acceptance of offers
of Christs offers. About ten -- I went in again he was
just gasping in death -- Another young man called, to talk
about his soul. He hopes he has today found peace, in believing -- an
intelligent young Englishman -- seems very fearful
lest it should prove illusory -- & transient -- prayed with him --
Oh -- that God would revive his work abundantly here.
