Among the Aristocracy


Monday, July 17, 1905.  2 Aglionby St.  Carlisle.

In the forenoon we studied.  After dinner, the three of us went tracting.  When we finished tracting, we went to Upperby to see Sister Lightfoot.  She prepared a nice tea for us, strawberries and cream, all we could eat.  We remained there till late in the evening when Elder Everett and I started for home, leaving Elder Riches to stop over night.

Tuesday, July 18, 1905.  2 Aglionby St.  Carlisle.

Studied till dinner time.  As dinner, then we three Elder Everett, Riches, and myself went tracting.  We went among the aristocracy.  We received much cold indifference.  Elder Riches and I doubled up on a man who claimed to be sinless and saved.  Then his wife came to his assistance and we gave it to them from the scriptures, but they were so unreasonable, they would not accept scriptures.  We bore our humble testimonies to them and left.  After completing the day's tracting, we went and called on Sister Taylor.  Had tea there and practised some songs over the piano.  Leaving there, we called on Sister Sanders.  From there, took Elder Riches part way to Upperby where he was stopping with Bro. Lightfoot.  Then Elder Everett and [I] came home.  Retired later.

Wednesday, July 19, 1905.  2 Aglionby St.  Carlisle.

Studied in the forenoon.  In the afternoon, we went tracting.  After tracting, we went to Mutual at No. 7.  After our regular lesson was over, Bro. Campbell of Scotland spoke to us, also, Elder Riches. After meeting, we went home.
