-41- has opened for us far beyond what a person would think of; though I did not doubt at all before I left home. Ida's ministry is searching and powerful; and people express themselves well satisfied in being at our meetings. Much tenderness has been expressed to Ida R. Chamness for her visit both in England and Norway. Ninth month, 7th. We went to meeting in Devoshire house. On the 8th. We had a large meeting in New Southgate at eleven o'clock; and one at eight o'clock in the evening. I had no service in the first; Ida was largely exercised in both meetings; and the life flowed freely. We went to Frederic B. Sainty's? to dinner where we were bountifully supplied. This Friend told us here that our meetings were like those he attended when he used to live with his grandmother in his young years. He was now eighty years of age. One man's condition was spoken to in regard to removing all the rubish before building a new house. We were very thankful for the favors of that day. We went to the Slums of London to-day amongst the poor class of people. I pity them in the crowded city of eight million inhabitants. We were also at the place where the children met to worship God; on the ruins of the meeting house which had been pulled down, and the parents sent to prison. The crowded streets in London we see swarming with millions of people; say nothing of the traffic underground.
