Vlll PREFACE.
Since the last edition was published, several
pious young men have made an eflort to bring
the knowledge of salvation to the long-neglected
Highlanders, in a similar manner. Instead of
being envious, I hope I can say, like Moses, I
wish that all the Lord's people were prophets.
[ would wish by all means to encourage them :
yet there is room — much land yet to be pos-
sessed. I would say to the Lord's people of
all denominations, who have been praying and
using means to enlighten the dark places of
Scotland: Brethren, be not weary in well-doing;
your labour has not been in vain in the Lord !
I can testify, from personal knowledge, that a
Yv'onderful reformation has taken place on the
manners and morals of the people in general ;
besides, I hope many are truly converted.
That your efforts may never cease, till all shall
know the Lord, from the least to the greatest,
is the prayer of your well-wisher,
P.O.
