Attended Muncey meeting, to our comfort.Dined at Samuel Wallace's, and went to WilliamEllis’s to lodge. 9th. Attended an appointed meeting at Muncey,in the forenoon, and one at Samuel Harris's in the afternoon: both large, — favoured seasons. 10th. Had a solemn parting opportunity with Samuel Wallace and William Ellis's families. Left Loyalsock creek behind, crossed Muncey, and rode thirty miles, to Northumberland, a town of about thirty houses, pleasantly situated between the north and south branches of Susquehanna, at their junc-tion: near which place, we crossed the Chilisquagus. 11th. Visited Hannah Miller, Richardson and wife, Josiah Haines and wife, in the forenoon; to the peace of my mind. Afternoon, had a solid meet-ing in the Methodists' house. 12th. Set out — crossed the west branch — rode down the west side of the river to Litle's ferry, where I rode the river: having travelled thirty-one miles. Lodged at Michael Bowers's, whose wife is a daughter of Cornelius Lane, and desired her love to Thomas Gibson. Litle's ferry is twenty miles from Harrisburgh, and about three miles from Peters' mountain. Hence the company proceeded to their several homes — having been absent on this toilsome, exer-cising journey, about four months and a half. Jacob Lindley.
