What is the reason you look so pale and intends to leave your Country Zeal I look pale 't is true for I am troubled with a Timpany in my body and do daily labour and travell in loop to bring forth some new doctrine and opinion and for the leaving of my Country it is because we caunot keep our Conventicles and receive that happy Be ediction after prayerr without many disturbances and incombrances Sup.
