could not be conceived of by those who had not seen it. The notice that
was taken of it by the people who came to town on occasion of the court
that sat here in the beginning of March, was very observable. And those
who came from the neighborhood to our public lectures were for the most
part remarkably affected. Many who came to town, on one occasion or

wounded hearts, and with those impressions that never wore off till they

Hatfield, in a place call the Hill, and the whole town, in the second
week in April, seemed to be seized, as it were at once, with concern
about the things of religion; and the work of God has
