_To the Same._
_Plymouth, August 3, 1744._
_My dear, dear Friend_,
IT is past ten, or I would write you a long letter. Our convoy is come,
and perhaps we may sail to-morrow. It is delightful to be here. We come
from _Dock_ in the evenings, in great companies, singing and praising
GOD. Our parting there has been more awful than words can express. I
shall have sailed before you can answer this.
