_To Mr. J―――― S――――._
_Bristol, July 27, 1743._
_My dear Friend_,
ON _Friday_ night I reached _Gloucester_, where I received your kind
and animating letter. On _Saturday_ I came hither. Yesterday was an
high day: I preached four times in the fields, and the congregations
were as large as at the beginning: blessed seasons indeed! Here are
people from all quarters. I am just going out to preach again, and
therefore can only add, that perhaps I may set out for _Exeter_ on
_Wednesday_, from whence you may expect to hear again, from
Yours, &c.
_G. W._
