turning to HIM, there find rest. he
prayed that his flock should not lose

that their troubles might lead them
to more perfect reliance upon Jesus,
the friend who never forsakes. He
prayed especially for that one OF his
! flock who must needs eudHTe the
cruel criticisms of many, and hoped
that strong in his own integrity and
strengthened by help from above he
might stand with fortltude the trials
