Got up this morning and felt
a little sick and sad. Went
out on the deck and sat down and thought
of the friends I had left at home, and a
feeling of loneliness came over me, I then went
in and took the large Bible lying on
the slab, and read several chapters and
then cast myself on the Lord in prayer
as I read I felt my sadness all disappear
and felt a sweet peace and trust in my
Father once more, blessed be His holy name.
I felt that He was directing me aright.
and told me I could have another room
in place of the one I had given up, so
that is all right. Attended a prayer meet-
ing down on the main deck this evening
and enjoyed it much. While it was
going on there was swearing and confusion
of all kinds all around us. We are the
last vessel to leave here as the others are
all gone. It has been a lovely day, soft and
balmy air and seems like summer but
alas that this nation cannot enjoy it in
peace. May the Lord soon hasten the day
when we shall be at peace once more, and
if it be His will return us all safe to our friend[s]
I have occupied the time principally
in reading to day
