5th We left Mr Abers walked to Westtown we had another meeting at the Academy I
preached to them in the spirit of God & warned them to repent & obey the gospel we
returned to Mr Clarks who was the teacher of the Academy & a member of the presbyterian
church he had kindly opened his doors to recieve us & was believing the gospel he made up his
mind after we returned to his house to obey the gospel in company with his wife on the following
day. But O, what power Satan has over the minds of men for during the night Sa[tan] tempted him
& he gave way to the temptation & was ready to say to us in the morning go thy way for this time. 4
