In the morning I enjoyed a refreshing season in prayer and felt sure that God would show us what to do and help us in our duty. On going out of the house, the Lagoon Indians pointed to some smoke beyond the hills and said the Patagonians were coming. This proved incorrect, however, but did not shake our confidence in God that He would defend, keep and direct us in the way that we should go. Rosalie off early.
