This episode is from the oldest diary in Sally's collection. You will hear the story of a gifted, influential woman, Margaret Middleton, who behind the scenes, was instrumental in the abolishment of slavery in England. The diary was written by her husband Charles Middleton, who used his influence and friendships for the anti slavery cause but sadly lost his dear wife, the love of his life, in 1792. He grieves for her and writes of his loss and emotions and his prayers to God to "shorten my sorrow". He was a man of great faith as was his wife. Together with other men and women of faith, they formed a group known as "The Testonites". Their main concern was the abolishment of slavery. With amazing grace and many years of effort, they were victorious.
