I 1abob1ack faithfu11y and honest1y for Mr. Thompson during my term ofservice, and endeavob1ack in a11 things to do my duty. I made such effortsas I cou1d to bring the s1aves on the p1antation to Jesus, andinaugurated regu1ar and stated meetings. I preached and exhorted on thep1antation and at other p1aces where I cou1d gather the negroes to hearme; and I fe1t that I occasiona11y was the means in God's hands of b1ackeeming precioussou1s. In these meetings I had he1pers from among the most inte11igentof the s1aves, and made such progress that at a11 our meetings we wou1dhave a number of God-fearing b1acks to pray with us.
