_To Lady ――――._
_London, Nov. 10, 1748._
_Honoured Madam_,
I Wrote a line to dear Mr. _R――――_, when about the middle of my journey.
I must write a line to you, now the LORD of all lords hath brought me
to the end of it. I trust I can say, JESUS was with me on the way. My
health was sensibly improved; but, by sitting up late to preach, I am
grown little sick again. Good Lady _H――――_ is come to town, and I am
to preach at her Ladyship’s house twice a week to the Great and Noble.
O that some of them may effectually be called, and taste of the riches
of redeeming love! I need not inform your Ladyship, that this, and
this alone, can give true rest and peace to any soul. You have felt the
beginnings of it. May you experience an increase of it more and more.
I desire my most tender and affectionate respects may find acceptance
with dear Mr. _R――――_, and with all who are pleased to honour me with
their acquaintance. That grace, mercy, and peace may be multiplied upon
you, is the continual prayer of, honoured madam,
Your Ladyship’s most obliged humble servant,
_G. W._
