CHAPTER XXXV
26/29
A large number of those with whom he conversed, appeared to be truly regenerated.
Mr.Wheeler, on the following Sabbath, found the interest more widespread.

Three years before, there was not a Protestant in the place.

A still larger attendance was reported on the following Sabbath, when more than a hundred failed of getting into the house of worship.
