Summary

The morning of the 8th March was occupied in bidding farewell to the pastors and delegates, with whom, for so many days, we had enjoyed the most pleasant Christian intercourse. The meetings were throughout characterized by cordiality, and on all important topics the most entire unanimity prevailed. On the afternoon of the following day, as Mr. Brown's health was sufficiently recovered to travel, we bade adieu to our very kind host and hostess, Mr. and Mrs. Hewett, whose unvarying regard to our comfort, vigilance over our health, and arrangements for the happiness of all, have left the most grateful memories of a visit never to be forgotten. Our first stage was to Falmouth by the coast road. The next day we proceeded to Kettering. In the evening, Mr. Brown and Mrs. Underhill left for Calabar; I remained for the services of the Lord's-day at Refuge. This station lies on the hills, between Duncan's and Swanwick. It was one of the first stations in Trelawny established by Mr. Knibb. It is now under the pastoral oversight of his son-in-law, the Rev. E. Fray. As the day was very wet, the congregation was smaller than usual. Recently, Mr. Fray has attempted, and with good success, to reach some of the new mountain settlements, by employing six of his most intelligent young men to visit them, and to open rooms for divine worship.
