Incidents in Scotland

Tuesday, 18. -- I preached at Dundee. Wednesday, 19. I crossed over the pleasant and fertile county of Fife, to Melval House, the grand and beautiful seat of Lord Leven. He was not at home, being gone to Edinburgh, as the King's Commissioner; but the Countess was, with two of her daughters and both of her sons-in-law. At their desire, I preached in the evening on |It is appointed unto man once to die| [Heb.9:27]; and I believe God made the application.

Thursday, 20. -- It blew a storm; nevertheless, with some difficulty, we crossed the Queen's Ferry.

Saturday, 22 (Edinburgh). -- A famous actress, just come down from London (which, for the honor of Scotland, is just during the sitting of the Assembly), stole away a great part of our congregation tonight. How much wiser are these Scots than their forefathers

Sunday, 23 -- I went in the morning to the Tolbooth kirk; in the afternoon, to the old Episcopal chapel. But they have lost their glorying: they talked, the moment service was done, as if they had been in London. In the evening the Octagon was well filled; and I applied, with all possible plainness, |God is a Spirit; and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth| [John 4:24].
