_To Mrs. C――――._
_London, October 30, 1756._
_Dear Mrs. C――――_,
I CAN only drop you a few lines. I am just returned from a thousand
miles northern circuit, and Mr. _Graham_ is just a going. All your
relations are well. The fields have been white ready unto harvest.
In about a week, a new building at the other end of the town is to be
opened. I expect to see your new Governor every moment. By his ship I
hope to send letters to you all. May GOD bless and prosper you! _J――――
H――――_’s relations are well. You will give him all the encouragement
you can. I am still for lessening the family as much as possible. My
wife wrote lately. I have scarce time to subscribe myself, dear Mrs.
_C――――_,
Your most affectionate, obliged, and
ready servant for CHRIST’s sake,
_G. W._
