443. to some Missionaries, a Salary might be both agreeable and proper, yet with him it would not do, strikethrough as he had, from the beginning strikethrough devoted himself to the service of the Lord, among the Heathen, without any other view of a reward than such as his Lord and Master should deign to bestow on him; well convinced that if he proved faithful and deserving of being rewarded he would strikethrough receive it strikethrough especially when he had strikethrough finished his earthly career and strikethrough joined Him whom he had served here below. Tho he coveted not the things of this world but being content with food and unclear alone; he was not inclined to censure strikethrough those who sought to acquire wealth. He only hoped that the wealthy would make such use of what they had acquired that it might prove a blessing to them. How often have I observed the smile on his Countenance and seen his Eyes glisten, when he, either strikethrough witnessed or learnt from others that strikethrough a needy or distressed Person had been relieved.
