LETTER MCLXXXII.

_To Mr. O――――._

_London, November 12, 1757._

_My dear Mr. O――――_,

I THANK you very kindly for visiting _Bethesda_ family, and for

administering the Lord’s-supper. I am glad to hear that the Master

of the feast was present. Ere long I hope we shall be called to the

marriage-feast of the supper of the Lamb in heaven. GOD only knows

what awaits us in our journey thither. I hope poor _Georgia_ will be

preserved. I trust the LORD of all lords hath said, “Destroy it not,

for there is a blessing in it.” We are in equal jeopardy. JESUS is our

common refuge. Conviction and conversion work goes on amongst us. But I

long to see _America_ once more. O that I may never cease itinerating,

till I sit down in heaven. My hearty love awaits all that are bound

thither. Hoping ere long to hear good news from you and yours, I haste

to subscribe myself, my dear Mr. _O――――_,

Yours, &c.

_G. W._
