SIX YEARS' DIARY

BY

JAMES SLATOR CUMMING, ESQ.,

A LIEUTENANT IN HER MAJESTY'S 9TH FOOT,

Written solely for his own Emprovement,

FOR HE SAYS,

"There is a kind of satisfaction in keeping up a connection with fleeting
Time; I shall thereby be able to consider what have been my thoughts and
habits in the different stages of life, and thus determine WHETHER MY FEELINGS
ARE TO BE THOSE OF PLEASURE OR REGRET."-July 3rd, 1839.

OF THE AUTHOR, A DISTINGUISHED OFFICER WRITES,

"There was this consolation, no one ever left this world better prepared to
die; he was, indeed, charming in every way: I considered him faultless."

"Woe to them that trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horse-
men, because they are very strong. But they look not to the Holy One of Israel,
neither seek the Lord."

"Turn ye unto him, from whom the children of Israel have deeply revolted."
ISAIAH C. Xxxi. v. 1 and 6.
