27th
I laboured hard through the
day on my house And in the
evening in company with Mrs Woodruff
I went into Br Benbows to watch with Sister
Benbow she began to fail in the forepart
of the evening & continued to grow weaker
untill about 30 minutes past 11 oclok
when she drew her last breath & fell asheep
And now rests from her labours and
her works will follow her. She has admin
istered to my my wants and the wants of
my brethren the Twelve in a foreign
land and done much good for
which she shall not loose her reward
