_To Mr. S――――._
_Burford, June 15, 1743._
_My dear Sir_,
I Cannot go any farther without writing you a line. Our Saviour
hath dealt most graciously with your unworthy friend. On _Monday_ I
experienced some sweet teachings from above, and was so happy, that I
thought our LORD was preparing me for some fresh trials. The prospect
pleased me much, knowing how all things had already worked together
for my good. Yesterday my body was very weary, but my soul happy, and I
preached at _Fairford_; this morning at _Glanfield_, and just now here.
It is dry ground; but the LORD has promised to pour water upon such.
He has richly watered my soul. Where I lay, was indeed a Bethel, a gate
of heaven. I hope GOD has been with you. My tender love to dear brother
_A――――s_. My fellow-travellers salute you. My love to the Tabernacle
people. Their prayers are heard. Grace! grace!
Yours affectionately,
_G. W._
