Saturday, July 27 1 was in the morning weak and poorly in body ; but, blessed be God, not destitute of comfort. In reading Job i. in Clarke's Bible, I was much interested, and found much matter for useful meditation. Mr. Crabtree preached a funeral sermon for Mrs. Sarah Pickard, with which I was deeply affected. The text was, Ezek. xxiv. 16:6 Son of man.
