1st. Thursday.
 
3
Thomson. Cloudy most of the day. Rained some in the p.m. A beautiful night.
4
Dined at Mrs. Johnson's, a well-to-do family. Lillian, the oldest daughter, is a pretty girl, her dark hair and dark eyes lending a fascinating charm to her graceful form. After dinner, played two games of croquette.
5
With Marvin's utmost drumming up I had a fairly large audience―mostly ladies. Very cold crowd. Very little sympathy and interest were shown to missionary matters―as presented in my talk. Maude Williams, a girl of 13, is a charming, fair, bright little creature. Thomson is a 3rd party town.
6
Marvin's grandpa, when young, used spectacles. The remarkable sight power he now enjoys came to him in his old days.
7
Marvin has fine mind. Though not very studious, by reason of his quickness of learning he got the first mark in his class. His stickability will stand him well in life's battle. Forgetfulness or absent-mindedness is one of his faults. He is said to have tried, when younger, to bridle a cow and milk a horse-so abstracted he was.
8
Enjoyed a letter from Lucy Flynt. It is rather a remarkable thing that while Mrs. Abbie H. whom I can not think of without love and to whom I have written so often should forget me, while Miss Lucy, a society-loving girl, should have that constancy of writing me now and then―me whom she did not meet but once―me whom she may afford to forget any moment she chooses to.

2nd. Saturday.
 
11
Augusta. Played croquette with Marvin, Maude, and Miss Lulu P. nearly 3 hours in the a.m. After dinner, took train to Augusta. Got there about 3:30. Found the city the largest I have seen next to Atlanta.
12
Knowing nobody, went to the Y.M.C.A. Was glad to get needed information from the General Secretary, Mr. Lawmaster. Called on Bro. Frazer at 4, but missed him. Very hot―sweating terribly. Was mortified and disgusted at being called "Chinaman" by black lowdowns and white trashes―of which the town seems to be well stocked―every step I took or every corner I turned. This due to the large number of Sing Sing's, Sam Sing's and other euphonious celestials that are present in the city.
13
Bro. Frazer's pulpit having been engaged for the Sunday by Dr. Glenn, Bro. F. made an arrangement for me to speak in St. Luke's Church.
 
 

3. 7월 3일

15
3rd. Sunday.
 
16
Augusta. Had a hot but not uncomfortable night in Virginia House, corner of Washington and Broad Streets. Breakfast at 9 a.m. At 11 a.m. went to Broad Str. Church to hear Dr. Glenn's sermon. It was sensible, slow, tedious. After which a large number of the congregation partook of the Lord's Supper. Then Bro. Frazer gave me 10 minutes to speak. He collected nearly 12 dollars for me. The people seem to be cordial and interested.
17
Dined at Bro. F.'s, Mrs. F. is exceedingly pretty―with dark eyes and hair. She seems to be better for a pet and ornament than for housekeeping and sensible work.
18
Attended the men's meeting in the Y.M.C.A. Thinly attended. A happy gathering, though. One of the bretheren gave what he called he A B C of Christianity in which the principal doctrines of our faith are summed up:
19
All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.
20
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved and thy house.
21
Come unto me etc., etc.
22
St. Luke's Church was packed to its utmost capacity. The audience was a responsive one. Bro. Timmons seems to be a working pastor. He has a businesslike wife. She came to America from England when 9 years old. Lived a large part of her early life in the North. Her accent and brisk manner attracts the attention of even a casual observer.
23
1. Augusta is a stirring town―fine broad street.
24
2. The people living in the town use deeply colored mud water. They ought to do better.
25
3. Prohibition which kept Augusta in red heat of excitement got defeated by the Saloonatics. In a righteous cause defeat is no shame.
 
 

4. 7월 4일

27
4th. Monday.
 
28
Harlem. Got up at 8 a.m. Already very hot. Bro. and Sister Timmons having to go to a private barbecue, I had to hustle up.
29
The town was from early morning in the liveliest mood on account of this being the national holiday of first magnititude. Was amused to see boys and girls in small groups go about in rags and in masks with sticks trying to frighten children. Plenty of parade by the blacks and whites.
30
Left Augusta by the noon train for Harlem, a small town of about 800 inhabitants. Alf. Oslin met me at the train and took me to his home. He has nice sisters, especially Miss Lula. Found Bro. Emory a stirring little man. Had a nice audience. Met Bro. Echols and his wife.
 
 

5. 7월 5일

32
5th. Tuesday.
 
33
Appling. Up early. Spent most the morning in playing croquette with Oslin, Miss Bell and others.
34
After dinner, bade farewell to the kind family of Oslin and left Harlem for Appling with Bro. and sister Echols. Three in a buggie was rather too crowded, but I could have stood a greater inconvenience to have the pleasure of riding with so charming a woman as sister Echols. Rained all the way.
35
Three hours' ride carried to the parsonage of Appling, the capital of Columbia County. It is nothing but a village with a court house, a prison, a blacksmith shop and a small store to which post office is attached. No wonder, Mrs. Gray told me that I would see nothing in Appling but tombstones and horse-racks.
36
The parsonage on a hill standing all by itself looked uninviting enough on the outside, but the interior showed the handiwork of a tasteful woman. For there was nothing attempted for show, but what there were seemed all disposed in the neatest possible way.
37
Mrs. Sallie Echols would have made any home happy. What a fresh, peach blossom complexion! What smileful eyes! What kissful lips! What sweet and soft voice! What gentle but dignified manner! What lovely disposition! What a pair of dainty hands! Her father is the mayor of Milledgeville. Now, it is a puzzle to me that a town girl like her should prefer, to all others, a young Methodist circuit rider, poor in the goods of this world, contented to live in a lonely cottage, to sweep and cook―this preference, is it a romance or love? In either case, Heaven bless the couple.
38
Bro. Echols is a pious, diligent and conscientious young man. He met me in Oxford during the Commencement and has ever since been a most sympathetic friend. May the Lord bless him and his work.
39
Considering the bad condition of the roads and the threatening aspect of the weather, I had a nice crowd. All seemed to be interested. They gave nearly4.50 ―a large sum for a place like Appling. Rained some in the night.

6th. Wednesday.
 
42
Sparta. Had a very healthy repose last night. After a nice breakfast―any and everything that the charming sister Echols touches is nice, Bro. Echols and I left Appling for Thomson in the buggie. Started at 9:30
43
Reached Thomson about 1:30 p.m. Just had time enough to shake hands with Mrs. Williams and her sweet little Maude.
44
Left Thomson at 12:30 (Thomson Time) for Sparta. Bro. Cook met me at the depot, Came to his home. Was delighted to meet Miss Fannie Shingleton, an excellent young lady from Oxford. Has been cloudy and cool all day and positively cold in the evening. An appreciative audience.

7th. Thursday.
 
47
Milledgeville. Cloudy and cold enough for fire. Bro. Cook took me out in the morning to the bank where I deposited100. The cashier, Mr. J. Walker, was kind to me contributing5.00 to the collection. Mr. Grave, who was indignant at the trick some boys played in putting water in my hat last night, bought a new hat for me. If the boys intended to help me, they couldn't have done better―at least in this instance.
48
Took dinner at Judge Little's. After dinner Bro. Cook and the two sons of the Judge took me to the train. Left Sparta and its kind people. Reached Milledgeville at 3:30 p.m. Bro. Thomas met me at the depot. A small but sympathetic audience. Sore throat.
 
 

8. 7월 8일

8th. Friday.
 
51
Merriwether. Early breakfast; with Gussie, Bro. Thomas' little girl, went out to the Insane Asylum, a great concern. About 1500 inmates, men and women, old and young, black and white. The most curious object that called my attention was a Jim Buzley, a man no more than 3 ft. high. He is 58 years old. Has a head big as Dr. Candler's.
52
Full beard, full voice but not full sense.
53
Mrs. Thomas is a splendid woman. Gussie is a fine girl. She will bloom into a beautiful girlhood and a magnificent womanhood.
54
After a hearty dinner, Tatum Harper and myself started out for Tatum's home 9 miles from Milledgeville. About 3 hours' ride carried us to a cool, well wooded and well cultivated part of country. Tat's home is located amidst trees. Found his father a kind, good-natured, strong man. Miss Annie, Tat's sister, is very pretty―white as snow―very modest―and very loveable.
55
Had a pleasant evening in playing croquette with Tat and his sisters. The friends so kind, the place so cool and quiet, the surroundings so inviting to a weary body and mind that I wished I could rest with Tat some days or weeks. But business before pleasure, I have to go on. Went to bed early after spending a few hours in cracking puzzles and looking at pictures.
 
 

9. 7월 9일

57
9th. Macon.
 
58
Rained most of the day. Suffered from cold.
59
After breakfast Tatum, his older brother―a nice young man―Miss Annie and Mabry and myself left Merriwether home for Pleasant Grove Church, about 7 miles off. The weather being so bad that only a few were out. There was a missionary exercise in which children took a prominent part. I was so unwell that I said only a few words. After the exercises, a hearty dinner was served by the members of the church. Bro. Morris―an old gentleman―the P.C. enjoyed the chicken pie well―the best thing that can be said of him. he has a sweet little daughter. About 3 p.m. Bro. Harper and the sweet sisters and myself once more got into the carriage and made for Browning's Cross―a depot not far from the Church.
60
Felt very sick in waiting for the train at the depot. Left Brown about 3:30. A short ride to Macon. As soon as I got to Macon, took my things and came to Park Hotel. Felt relieved to be in a comfortable room to do as I please. Mosquito curtains show that this is a mosquito country.
61
Dr. McFerrin and Bro. Christian, both being away, I was a loss what to do on Sunday. Went to bed early.
 
 

10. 7월 10일

63
10th. Sunday.
 
64
Macon. Rained in the a.m. Went to Mulberry St. Church, rather confused what to do. Met R. Rogers, an Emory graduate of '92. He proved a most valuable help in my bewilderment.
65
Talked to a small but substantial audience. When I got through Prof. Glenn, the uncle of B. Glenn, another '92 boy, made a few remarks and took up a collection for me. They gave47.55, the largest collection I ever got. Talked in Y.M.C.A. at 4 and to a handfull ladies and children in the Presbyterian Church. A small and dried up audience in the 1st Str. Church.5.70. Acworth would have beaten this on a Sunday night.
 
 

11. 7월 11일

67
11th.
 
68
Ft. Valley. Felt sick indeed and in truth. Wished to go to Joe Rankin's home for a rest, but of course I couldn't under the circumstances. Rogers came round to the hotel and took me in his buggie to the Bank, where I deposited55.00, then to the depot.
69
Left Macon about 10:35 a.m. Got here about 12:10. Mr. Gray, an Emory boy of '91, met me at the depot at the request of Osgood Cook. Very kind. Came to Osgood's home. found him sick.
70
Rained hard from 4 p.m. till dark. Everything seems to go against my talk. The rain, the mud, the sickness of Osgood, poor advertisement etc. So few came out that Bro. Branck kindly postponed the lecture. Had to go through a private examination before a few girls in the parlor.
 
 

12. 7월 12일

72
12th. Tuesday.
 
73
Marshalville. Spent a pleasant morning in reading the last chapter of Uncle Tom's Cabin. It is a wonderful book. Very often I became so oppressed with my indignation at the inherent cruelty of slavery and its practical evils that I had to stop and relieve my mind by the fact that slavery is no more. No wonder that this book is said to have been a causer of the War.
74
At 12 left Ft. Valley with no great regret. Reached Marshalville about 12:30. Cordially received at Bro. Read's. Revelled in peaches, this being a great fruit district. Very nice audience, considering the badness of weather and streets.8.00. Stayed with Mr. Murph for the night.
 
 

13. 7월 13일

76
13th. Wednesday.
 
77
Americus. The quinine I had taken last night produced a weakening effect. Felt feeble in the morning. Stayed in Bro. Murph's all the a.m. His wife is a very nice and religious woman. Left Marshalville at 12:30.
78
Reached Americus about 1:30 p.m. Williams met me at depot. Went to his home. Received a letter from dear Spencer.
79
After dinner fell into a hot and dull sleep. Got up near supper time, very gloomy and stupid. Nice audience.6.00. It made me feel sick to think that I had to go through this ordeal of cracking chestnuts for mere pittance to dried-up crowds yet many a time before I should be able to rest.
 
 

14. 7월 14일

14th. Thursday.
 
82
Cordele. After breakfast, the Baptist and Presbyterian ministers came to see me. At 10 Bro. Williams took me to see Mrs. Julia Murray, Nath's sister. I felt quite at home with her. At 12:15 bidding farewell to the hospitable Mrs. Williams, made for the depot. Left Americus by the 1 p.m. train. Got here about 2. Found a temporary home in Mrs. Jones'. Fearfully hot―the occasional showers only increasing the heat by evaporation. Oh, how I wish I could plunge into a big tub of cool water and have a thorough bath to my hearts' content! Happy Japanese! They beat any people under heaven in bathing facilities. In the evening, went out to Brother Blackwell's home in the suburban part of the town. He is a carpenter by trade and an honest, whole souled man.
83
Cordele has been called a magic city on acc't of its wonderful growth. Only 4 years ago the ground on which substantial bank and store buildings now stand were cotton fields. The town has a complete water work, electric plant and a fine hotel (unfinished) . This is what they call the wild grass region―the grass being used to a small extent only for making baskets etc. Hunting gofers in wild grass is a contemptuous phrase to designate a man unused to the ways and manners of a city. The Methodist Church is a handsome affair. Had about 50 persons out, the weather threatening rain.6.45 ―a liberal contribution from so small a crowd.
 
 

15. 7월 15일

15th. Friday.
 
86
MacRae. Had a pleasant a.m. with Bro. Children in playing spelling cards. I wished I could stay over a day. At 11 a.m. went to Mrs. Tommey's. She is a handsome mid-aged lady. Took dinner at her house. Left Cordele by 2 p.m. train. After nearly two hours' ride reached Helena, a station about a mile from McRae. Bro. Huckabee met me at the depot. His open countenance, frank manner, cordial greeting made me feel good. Put up at Harris House. Bro. Huckabee did an ample justice to his reputation for advertisement by filling the church nearly full in a Friday night at so short a notice.5.00. Bro. Huckabee has been busy and in a measure successful in establishing a Female Col. in McRae. The building is just begun.

89
Savannah. Had a tormenting night from heat, musquitoes and trains. Waked up at 4 a.m. and fearing to miss the train, ran down to the depot with a desperate effort. But when I did get to the depot, found the train 2 hours late. Left Helena at 6 a.m. Had a warm, slow, dusty ride of 6 hours. This S.A.M. road is rather a poor case. Bro. Carson, a member of Wesley Church, a kindly old gentleman met me at the depot and conducted me to Bro. Jarrell's parsonage. Dr. Jarrell a good-natured―therefore―fat gentlemen extended me a hearty welcome. Glad to see Charlie, J., the Dr.'s boy from Emory. Met sweet Tommie Thomson. After supper, Charlie and myself went to Tom's home and had a nice talk for an hour or so.
 
 

17. 7월 17일

17th. Sunday.
 
92
Savannah. Had a good night's rest. At 11 a.m. Bro. Adams of Wesley Church and Bro. Carson came to take me to their church where I had to speak. A fairly ogod audience. Came out without any serious blunder―I think. Took dinner at Tommie's home. His father has a jolly and happy and rather worldly countenance. His mother is a quiet and nice lady. Their children 5 boys are as pretty a lot of boys as anywhere to be found. Only one little girl―exceptionally bashful to strangers. Their home is well-furnished―nothing tawdry but everything neat.
93
Savannah―with, they say, about 40,000 inhabitants, is the prettiest town I have so far seen besides Washington D.C. Such fine squares, nice avenues, and delightful breezes. Palms on the side-walks and negro boys with fruit and vegetable baskets on their heads and crying out for their goods, are new features to me. I do wish I could stay over tomorrow. But having written Thom Shepard that I would go to his home on Monday I can not afford to break my words, especially he may very likely come seven miles to meet me.
94
Just before the church time it began to rain in a steady torrent and continued so until 9. This of course reduced the audience to a mere handful.8.49 (!) only 48¢ more than a smaller crowd in Marshalville in a week night did. All depends on who the pastor is. But for the10.00 from Wesley Church what Trinity gave would hardly have covered my R.R. expenses. Yet Trinity is the richest M.E. church in the town.

18th. Monday.
 
97
Reidsville. After a hurried breakfast, left the Trinity parsonage for the depot. No word could describe by delight at seeing once more the cheerful and smiling face of sweet Tommie who came to the depot to see me off. God bless him and make him a cheer to all through his career!
98
Left Savannah at 8 a.m. Reached Collins about 10:30. Faithful Thom Shepard met me at the train. Was glad I didn't disappoint him by staying over in Savannah. Thom, his little brother Walace and myself drove to Reidsville in a buggy hitched to a slow mule. Got to Reidsville at 12:30.
99
Found a hearty welcome at Thom's home, his parents being most worthy people. Miss Lilla(what a sweet name!) Thom's oldest sister is bewitchingly pretty. She is a young widow. Miss Eva, his younger sister, is stronger built than Miss Lilla, but very pretty―she is a regular flirt.

19th. Tuesday.
 
102
Reidsville. After breakfast, in company with Thom Shepard, Fred, his brother, Jerom Bazemore, Earnest Smith, and Rob. H. went out to the river 4 miles from the village. Had a pleasant time in bathing etc. When through we went to Shepard's orchard and ate the peaches to our fullest capacity. Came back about 12. After dinner took a short nap. Played croquet from 4 to 6 p.m.
103
The Tattnal County Teacher's Institute being in its session in the Court House during the week, I went there to hear the teachers and citizens debate on the question "Resol, that the corporeal punishment shall be abolished in the common schools of Ga." The debate was very common place. The negative side won the question. Went to rest very late.
 
 

20. 7월 20일

105
20th. Wednesday.
 
106
Reidsville. Spent the a.m. in writing letters, eating peaches, peeling fruits for Miss Eva. After dinner and a short nap. with Thom, went to the church to sweep it and get things ready in general for the night. As usual, we had a shower of some volume. But it cleared up when church began. Hot. Had a quite full house. All men pleased.11.93. Went to bed very late.
 
 

21. 7월 21일

21st. Thursday.
 
109
Reidsville. Heat and bugs kept me awake up to 12 last night, then to 3:30 this a.m. Felt bad when up. At 11 a.m. went to the Court House to hear Bro. Ellinwood, the Ed. of Tattnal County Journal, lecture on Phrenology. He is counted as the smartest man in the county, though his usefulness is somewhat crampt by his cranky notions. He examined my head and said:
110
1. My mother gave me the love for fashion, order and neatness.
111
2. Have a good constitution―love too much sweet thing.
112
3. Reasoning and reflective but not observative.
113
4. Stubbon―Thrift.
114
5. Want of self-esteem.
115
6. Love the fair sex less than loved.
116
7. Will make a devoted husband.
117
Took dinner a Bro. E. Smith's. Miss Rosa Smith is a sweet and fair girl―has more woman in her than in Eva.
118
After dinner played dominoes with Miss Rosa as my partner against E. Smith and another boy. At four played croquett and enjoyed the game very much. Miss Lilla Shep. is a really lovable woman. Happy he must be who shall win her heart and hand. I am sorry I have to go away tomorrow. The time I enjoyed here shall be a period which I may look back with nothing but pleasure. Heaven's blessings on Bro. Thom, his parents, sweet sisters and brothers.
119
Attended the Epworth League meeting. Slept from first to last.

22nd. Friday.
 
122
Lumber City. At 7:30 a.m. took a most leave of Misses Lilla and Eva and their parents. Thom, Willie and myself all in a buggy drove to the Collins' depot. Got there about 9:30. Waited nearly an hour for the train. Left Collins at 10. Met B.E. Wilcox, a Nath Thompson type young man, on the train. He is thorough in everything he does in religion as well as in business. He attend Emory the Fall term of 91―92. He kindly paid my fair from Lyons to Helana ($1.20) . Reached Lumber City about 2:30 p.m. Thom Day and O.P. Wilcox met me. Went straight to Thom's home, the most substantial in the town. Had the evening all to myself in writing letters and in sleeping. Thom's Pa―Capt. Day―and Ma can be best described by the word, solid. The Capt, is not only the richest in the community, but is the religious leader. Very kindly treated.
123
A large turn out14.00. Was delighted to see Sterling Wiggins.

23rd. Saturday.
 
126
Brunswick. Spent the morning in rest and quiet. Wrote to Miss Fannie Early. At 2 p.m. left Lumber City of Brunswick. Very hot, dusty and long ride. Reached Brunswick about 6. John Greer, Colson, and Mickler met me. Went to Dr. Thompson's parsonage. The Dr. was talkative and pleasant enough; but his wife impressed me as a inefficient hostess and a lazy housewife. I may be mistaken.
127
1. Brunswick, according to Dr. Thompson, is a most godless town. Sixty saloons for 8 or 9 thousand people. Very low religious condition. Burglras are numerous and successful. As a residence town, Brunswick is pretty, cool and healthy.
128
2. Mr. McCookthe Editor of Brunswick Times, was once a popular zealous Methodist preacher. He served the First Church 3 years. He built McKendree Church. But, a short while ago, he fell. He now out-sinners a confirmed sinner in obscenity, in profanity, in blasphemy. Exceedingly sad!
129
3. The Y.M.C.A. is in its last stage of consumption.

131
24th. Sunday.
 
132
Brunswick. Spoke to a fairly good audience in Dr. Thompson's church at 11 a.m.7.00. Took dinner at Colson's home. His mother is a sister to Osgood Cook's mother. Neither of these ladies is religious to any great extent―they are rather society folks. The dinner was elegant and elegantly seved. After dinner, John Greer took me to the famous Lover's Oak―whose umbrella-like foliage covers nearly half an acre. Thence to John's home. Enjoyed a saucer of ice-cream. With John, his brother and sister went to S.S.
133
Supped at Bro. Mickler's boarding house. Bro. Mickler whom I had met in Vanderbilt in 1891, is in Brunswick to fill the McKendree pulpit for Bro. Ed. Cook during his absence. Was glad to hear something about old Vanderbilt. Things seem to be in a rather bad fix there. Dr. Beemis, one of the best professors, and Dr. Deering resigned. Talked in McKendree Church, a very pretty structure, to a overflowing house.7.14.
 
 

25. 7월 25일

135
25th. Monday.
 
136
Waycross. Left Dr. Thompson's residence at 6:45 a.m. Bro. Mickler escorted me to the B. and N. Depot. Left Brunswick about 7:15. Reached Waycross about 10. A young man met me and showed me to Strickland House. Thence we had to go to Bro. Matthew's home fully a mile. At 10:30 Bro. Matthew took me to the court house to see Charlie Thomas, as Emory graduate of '92. Was delighted to see him. Stayed in the court house about an hour. Walked about 2 miles in the glaring sun to take dinner. At 2 p.m. went back to Bro. Matthew's home and rested my aching head, wearied limbs and disgusted mind in a quiet room until 6.
137
At 6:30 Bro. Matthew―his family being away―took me to Uncle Thomas' home. Was specially intersted in Bro. and Sister Thomas because of the fact that they had gone through most heroic self-denial for 8 years in educating their boy, Charlie. He married Miss Lucy Means of Oxford. She seemed to be really glad to see me. So was I. God bless their family. A nice audience. Put up at Uncle Thomas's.

140
Waycross. Got up at 8. After breakfast, went to the post-office looking for a card from Quitman but in vain. Henry Reddings, a Sub-F. class-mate, having kindly offered me a home for today, I came up to his house at 9. Henry's father is a M.D. Mrs. Redding is a fine looking woman, making one feel at home.
141
In the afternoon Dr. Redding took me round the town. After supper had a long talk with Mrs. and Dr. Redding. The former is the best informed and intelligent lady I have met within this trip. She knew what she talked about.
142
Waycross is a growing town, the new part of the town being best portion. The unvarying flatness of the country in this part of Ga. is rather tire-some―I long for the refreshing sight of wooded mountains and grassy plains.
 
 

27. 7월 27일

27th. Wednesday.
 
145
Thomasville. Left Waycross and the kind family of Reddings at 10 a.m. reached Thomasville about 2 p.m. after a hot and dusty ride. Brother Wynn and his wife being sick, I was directed to go to Stuart House.
146
After dinner, called on Mr. John Cartright, the brother of Mrs. Candler. He keeps a fine shoe store.
147
Thomasville is a pretty city with many a fine hotel most of which open only in winter 8 or 10 thousand people from North and West visit the city as a healthy winter resort.
148
Spoke to a fairly large audience.21.00.
149
Eugene Smith, a Sub-Fr. classmate, did not give me any attention―any more than if he had never seen me before.

152
Bainbridge. It being too expensive for me to stay in the hotel, though I was due in Bainbridge on Friday night, I made up my mind to go to the latter place. Reached Bainbridge about 3 p.m.
153
Went to the parsonage, nearly a mile and half from the depot. Found Professor Steward a most sweet spiritual gentlemen.
154
After an hour's stay in the parsonage Sam Hawes, a Sub-Fr. classmate, came around and invited me to this home. His father, Col. Hawes is a prominent lawyer and cuts a big figure in the community. Mrs. H., a fine looking lady, impressed me with her intelligence and gentleness.
155
Was gratefully surprised to see that Sam had printed great many handbills advertising my talk. Altogether, his treatment of me was opposite to Eugene S's.

Bainbridge. Had a poor night on account of bedbugs―the most detestable pest.
159
Spent a pleasant morning in playing checkers with Emmie, an exceedingly bright girl of 8 or 9 years. She is on a visit to Mrs. Hawes. She talks incessantly and intelligently.
160
After dinner, took a short nap.
161
At 5 p.m. Sam and I had a very pleasant drive around the town.
162
Bainbridge is noted for its mosquitoes, dances and religious lukewarmness.―
163
Spoke to a nearly full house.―
164
Mrs. Hawes is a genuine woman. Her unaffected kindness to strangers goes right to the heart of the recipient. She is a devoted wife, indulgent mother and a loveable friend.
165
The praise of Brother Steward is in everybody's mouth.

Albany. Could not sleep a single minute last night-Mosquitoes, flees and the accursed bugs whose very smell makes me nervous, did their worst. Was obliged to get up at 2 a.m. waiting patiently or rather impatiently the arrival of 4 at which the buss was to come for me.
169
The kind and thoughtful Mrs. Hawes was also up about 2. Was really happy, inexpressibly happy, to see once more, before my departure, the sweet face of my hostees. Had nearly a half hours chat with her in the hall―God bless her!
170
Left Bainbridge at 5 a.m. Reached Thomas at 7. The Albany train pulled out at 7.55 a.m. Slept all the way. Got to Albany about 11.
171
Went to Brother Robertson's residence. "Am glad to see you," said Brother Robertson. "But my wife is sick; a child is dying; our servant is away and I am very, very very busy. I can not keep you." I felt very sorry for his misfortunes. But I was glad to learn later on that his wife was well enough to see company in the evening, and that the dying child―which I thought to be Brother Robertson's belonged to another family living in other part of the city.
172
Here is queer introductory speech Brother Robertson made to Mrs. Mc. in whose house I have to stay till Monday. "Sister Mc.―this is Mr. Yun of Corea. He is a member of our church. Do you want a boarder? I can not keep him under my present circumstances. I know you are not unreasonable. I know you are resonable. He is a poor fellow trying to make his way through the college. He has been a student at Emory College, Oxford. He is preparing himself for the ministry―to go back to his country to teach and preach the gospel of Jesus Christ." A most absurd piece of introduction I ever heard of. A straight English translation of this speech would be this "Sister Mc. this is a poor fellow. He is going to be a preacher. Be charitable enough not to charge him too much." I do not like this!!!

Albany.
176
Attended the morning service at the Methodist Church.
177
Brother Robertson preached a very practical, sensible and enjoyable sermon.
178
At 4 p.m., Brother R. took me with him in his pastoral visit to the sick.
179
Spent the evening and took supper in the parsonage.
180
Spoke to a packed house. Brother R. oddities were once more seen in his introducing remarks when he said "Brother Yun does not come here as a begger;" and in his selection of hymns-none of which was missionary or familiar.
181
Met Mrs. Gus Muse―a sister-in-law of Miss Anna Muse. The audience was very appreciative.
