Confession of Eli Payne 1824. I now confess with share and blushing that I stole the money from Mr. Lynes and have said that which Was false respecting it, for which if I know my own feelings on sincerely sorry knowing that I have done great injury to the cause of religion and likewise deeply wounded the feelings of the brethren in the Church I therefore humbly ask their forgivenesshhoping that they will be earnest at the throne of grace that I may be for- given of him whom I have mout offended. I would also wish to be forgiven by the congregation at large and hope none of them will take occasion by my misconduct to speak reproachfully of religion for notwithstanding my past errors I still believe there le a reality in


4


religion without which no man can over expect happiness in this life or that which is to come. I feel that the crime is offensive to God and rendered more so by denying it. I do view with deep regret my unchristian walk for months past and consider neglect of duty and deviation from the commands of God as the leading steps to this great wickedness, I acknowledge I have not felt that reverence for the holy sabbath which I ought to have felt. Signed: Eli Payne
