Sat. Apl. 14 Came to the Schooner early this morning hoping, that during the night she had been got off; but finding her still on the bar, returned to Mr. Day’s intending to spend the Sab. among a people destitute of preaching – went with Mr. D. to Cedar Island, a distance of about 4 miles, to the house of Mr. Randolph Daniels. Mr. Daniels and his wife are members of a Baptist chh. – Tarried at his house at night. An appointment was made this afternoon to preach to morrow. The people in this place are entirely destitute of preaching, and of very many of the advantages of civilized life. They have no Min. Magistrate, Physicians, Lawyers, Meeting-house, Court-house or Jail. A small part of the Island will produce any kind of grain. They support themselves by fishing and oystering. The Island is 10 miles long and form 1 to 1 ½ wide.
