Saturday, April 9, 1796 - We came to Cane Creek, in Burke County. We dined on some peach-pie in the woods. In the afternoon there arose a most dreadful storm of rain, with thunder and lightning: it was very awful; we cried to God for man and beast, and were preserved. We came in about seven o'clock, and were received by T. B. with great kindness. Wednesday 19-Oct-1814, Rode to Bolings. Behold! Richard Bird came one hundred miles to hasten us to camp meeting away in the bleak hills of Haywood ... Monday 24-Oct, We visited the house of Richard Bird ... Tuesday 25-Oct, I preached in the home of the father, Benjamin Bird. There was such feeling manifested. We collected liberaly on the mite subscription to help the suffering ministry. I had for twenty years past wished to visit the cove; it is done and I have seen my old tried friends, dear Richard and Jonah Bird and William Fulwood, who sheltered and protected me when, during the war of Independence, I was compelled to retire to the swamps and thickets for safety.
