We may then expect an increased attend
ance Upon the various services of the Bethel
until it shall secure a well established con-.
gregation from both the sea and the land.'
; During the year we have visited 612 Tes
sels, and held, religious .conversation with
8,300 officers and men,' in health and in
sickness, in comfort and in trouble, in the
cabin, in the forecastle and by the way." v
: We have . distributed 10,360 .-pages of
tracts, 1,100 copies of the Beamed . Friend
and Life-boat, besides Bibles and Testaments."
-. There have been admitted to the Marine
Hospital 81, of whom 5 have died;
1.555 seamen have been entertained at
the Home, under the able management of
CaptW." J. Penton, its present keeper. '
; In view of the encouraging prospect of
securing a ne w Home and Bethel, - which
will be a credit to this society and an orna
ment to the city, we see a brighter future
opening up before . us. But the ' crowning
excellence of our work , will not be this
house we build for the Lord, but the pres
ence of His Holy Spirit guiding multitudes
in the path of peace and fitting them for
His heavenly temple, where there is full
ness of joy and pleasure f orevermore.
