One night as I lay on my hammock, it was suggested to my mind “thou art lost, beyond hope of recovery;” when in the agony of my soul I cried out “Lord save, or I perish!” And in a moment faith sprung up in my soul, my guilt and condemnation was all gone, and I was filled with peace and joy in believing; I could say with the Apostle, “being justified by faith, we have peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ;” but when I thought hath God indeed, forgiven all my sins? I was so overwhelmed with gratitude, that I cried aloud and praised God in the Barrack room.
