ABERDEEN, _Jan. 3, 1637_.
[173] Kirkcudbright.
LXXXI.--_To_ MR. JOHN MEINE (_Jun_.).
[MR. JOHN MEINE was the son of John Meine, merchant in Edinburgh, "a solid and stedfast professor of the truth of God." His mother was Barbara Hamilton, a notice of whom see Letter CCCXIII. He was now, it would appear from an allusion in the close of this letter, a student of theology, with a view to the holy ministry. Halyburton on his deathbed spake of this letter as one in which was to be found "More practical religion than in a large volume."]
