Revd Sir, I am desired by the Revd Mr Pratt to leave the inclosedenclosed L[ette]rs from Mr Marsden with you, in order that you may return them again to him when you see him on Monday next. I perfectly agree with Mr. Marsden in his plan of proceeding with respect to the New Zealanders, and am happy to add on the part of myself and Mrs. Kendall, that
we shall cheerfully obey the Summons; and we humbly trust that God will qualify us for the work, and accept our feeble endeavours to promote His Honor and Glory. In contemplating the rising glories of the Redeemers Kingdom, every true believer’s heart must be filled with holy delight. Every humble Instrument employed in promoting its Interests will become partaker of this Joy in proportion to
his Capacity & Zeal, while both heaven & Earth will acknowledge to the Lord, that by “His own right hand and his holy arm hath He gotten himself the victory.” And am Revd Sir Yours faithfully Tho Kendall Gt Quebec St. 20 June 1812
Revd. B Woodd
