Hi All,

[The diary begins.]

The Diary of Sister Elizabeth
[Lutheran Medical Center, Brooklyn]

April 8, 1883: I came here to New York and was received by my
brother-in-law, with whom I have lived for three weeks. During that time
I have gone around to become a bit acquainted and have made some house
visits and sick calls (ten in all).
April 27 [? Ms. Illegible]: Moved today to Mrs. Bamber's in the
hope of learning a little English.
April 28: Made three house visits, and in the afternoon to Pastor
Everson's school and went around a little with him.
April 30: Read some English, and was at Pastor Mortensen's. From
there to 18th Street. Found there a sick man sitting on the edge of the
bed glad and at peace with faith in his Saviour. To 15th Street for a
longer visit. Then to 1711 to a distressed soul who longs for peace with
God.
May 3: Spent some time with a distressed woman who was disturbed
about her family's wandering on the broad road away from the Father's
house. God grant that she herself may come with a whole heart to Thee so
that she can witness about Thee to her own!
