Laurie, Thomas, 1821-1897

"By a Returned Missionary"

Yet in the
morning she returned with even increased interest in spiritual
things. Said she, "Two or three times I was left alone for a moment,
and then I tried to commit my soul to my Saviour." Those few moments
she seemed to value above all price. Not long after, she found peace
in Jesus, who became her chosen theme. No wonder she loved to point
others also to the Lamb of God, and lead them to the mercy seat.


CHAPTER X.

GEOG TAPA.
DEACON MURAD KHAN IN 1846.--PENTECOSTAL SABBATH IN 1849.--MEETINGS
IN 1850 AND 1854.--EXTRACTS FROM JOURNAL OF YONAN IN 1858.
The village of Geog Tapa is so prominent, and has been so largely
blessed, that, though there is not room for a continuous account of
the work in that place, we here give a glimpse of its progress in
different years.
Deacon Murad Khan, one of the assistants in the Seminary, and a
native of the place, spent some Sabbaths there in May, 1846. He took
turns with the other native teacher in this, going Saturday, and
returning on Monday. He tells us that, after morning prayers in the
church, pious men met together to pray for a blessing on the day;
twelve of their number then went to labor in other villages, the
rest remaining to work at home.
