See likewise, p. 246. CH. VII. ] FIRST YEARS OF THE COLONT. 193 acting through the instrumentality of man, the British nation was spared the sin and shame, which it had well nigh incurred, of casting forth from its own shores a vile mass of uncleanness and corruption, and forgetting at the same time to place amongst it the smallest portion of that good leaven by which alone its evil might be corrected. Accordingly, one chaplain* was sent out to officiate among about 1 000 souls, who were at fir...st dispersed in eleven ships, and more than two- thirds of them were in a state of extreme spiritual need, inasmuch as they had been guilty of gross and flagrant offences. And thus, thanks to the zeal and good feeling which had gained a victory over the supineness of govern- ment, the discharge of religious duties on the Sunday was never omitted at Sydney, Divine service being performed in the open air whenever the state of the weather would permit. All seems to have been done by the chaplain which could be effected under circumstances of great dis- couragement, f When our blessed Redeemer sent forth his disciples, he sent them by two and two, and how en- couraging, in the midst of an evil world, is the conver- sation or counsel of a Christian friend that is dearer than a brother !
