_To Mrs. S――――._
_New-York, Sept. 2, 1754._
_Dear Mrs. S――――_,
I AM much, yea very much indebted to you for your works of faith, and
the labours which, I believe, have proceeded from unfeigned love to the
ever-loving and ever-lovely JESUS. Put all to his account. You shall
be rewarded at the resurrection of the just: then shall the righteous
shine forth like the sun, O happy, happy time! LORD JESUS, hasten it!
May the blessed Spirit prepare us to meet him! Methinks I hear you say,
“I will not lose a moment.” The LORD strengthen you in this and every
holy resolution! You must pray that I may not flag in the latter stages
of my road. Blessed be GOD, we had good seasons between _Philadelphia_
and _New-York_. In the _New-Jerusalem_ more glorious seasons await us
yet. At present I can no more. Be pleased to remember me in the kindest
manner to all, and believe me to be, dear Mr. _S――――_,
Your assured friend, and ready servant for CHRIST’s sake,
_G. W._
