Excerpt from A Selection From the Letters of Lydia Ann Barclay, a Minister of the Gospel in the Society of Friends In preserving these rough drafts of letters, written under exercise of mind, I desire to be preserved from boasting, or seeking to make a fair show in the flesh (as it were), knowing that in my flesh dwelleth no good thing; 'but by the grace of God I am what I am, ' and that, if His grace bestowed upon me hasnot been in vain, it is all of His adorable love and mercy in Christ J esus my Lord. But my whole and sincere desire is, that, if in the perusal of these papers by any when I am gone to rest, the pure mind may be stirred up, or that which is tender or of God in them strengthened - 'that the abundant grace may through [their] thanksgiving, redound to the glory of God, ' the fountain of all good, and the centre of all true worship and praise.
