Collieston (1854)



He addressed three meetings in the open air, at which large numbers attended, hungering for the bread of life. He had great liberty in speaking, and the Spirit accompanied the word with power. Much feeling was manifested among his hearers at these meetings. Many were conhe addressed three meetings in the open air, at which large numbers attended, hungering for the bread of life. He had great liberty in speaking, and the Spirit accompanied the word with power. Much feeling was manifested among his hearers at these meetings. Many were convinced of sin, and anxiously inquired what they must do to be saved. He could scarcely get away from them; and, after he had left for home, late in the evening, one young man came after him inquiring more particularly as to the way of salvation. He pointed him to Jesus the friend of sinners and proceeded on his way lifting up his heart to God in prayer, that the convictions which had been produced might give place only to a sense of pardon and acceptance with God, through the merits of a crucified Saviour.      vinced of sin, and anxiously inquired what they must do to be saved.
