Before me were a people whom I might not meet again until the judgment; and the desire for their salvation led me to speak earnestly and in the fear of God, that I might be free from their blood. Great freedom attended my effort, which occupied one hour and ten minutes. Jesus was my helper, and His name shall have all the glory. The audience was very attentive. {LS 227.2}

Foran mig var et folk som jeg ikke ville mødes igen med før dommen; og ønsket for deres frelse fik mig til at tale alvorligt og i Gudsfrygt, så jeg kunne befries fra deres blod. Jeg havde stor frihed i mine anstrengelser, som tog en time og ti minutter. Jesus var min hjælper, og Hans navn skal have al herlighed. Tilhørerne var meget opmærksomme.
