Excerpt from Monthly Circular Letters Relative to the Missions of India, 1813, Vol. 6 In entering on a review of the past year, feelings of a peculiar nature fill our minds. This year has witnessed both judgment and mercy in an unusual degree. It has closed, moreover, the twentieth year since the formation of our Society. The dealings of God with us therefore deserve to be diligently recorded, and carefully pon dered in the heart. Surely it is not presumption for us to realize the ad vice of the Psalmist respecting the Lord's dealings with us, nor deceptive to expect the fruit he declares to follow therefrom, Whoso is wise and will observe these things, even he shall understand the loving kindness of the Lord. We will begin the review with the afflictions God has been pleased to lay upon us, and which indeed almost commenced with the year. It had pleased God in the last week of the preceding year, to remove sister Mardon who had been previously confined by illness nearly two months. This was succeeded in the month of January, by the death of one of our pupils. But in February we were visited with an alarming disease sel dom found in India, the putrid sore throat. Brother Ward's second. Daughter, about six years old, was the first who was seized with it, and within two days after the disease was perceived, it carried her of. The disease afterwards seized the other children of brother Ward, then both himself and sister Ward, and afterwards brother Marshman's fami y, brother Carey's neice, sister Carey, and the greater part of the chil dren in the school. Here, however, mercy was evident, neither bro ther nor sister Ward, nor any of their other children, nor any one of the family, was carried otl' thereby; and only one of our pupils, who died in April. Affliction however still followed: in the latter end of February, brother Marshman's infant son was taken ill in a different disease, and. After an illness of ten days was removed death.
