I had now, through all that had come in since May 26, 1864, including this last-mentioned donation, about twenty-seven thousand pounds in hand.

I had patiently waited God's time.

I had determined to do nothing until I had the full half of the sum needed for the two houses.

But now, having above two thousand pounds beyond the half—
