Yesterday we had a blessed Sabbath, undisturbed by rumours;
it is generally a day of startling reports set afloat by idlers. The Bishop
preached and administered confirmation at St. Paul's. The President was a
candidate for confirmation, but was detained by business. It is such a blessing
to have so many of our public men God-fearing, praying Christians!
