_To Mr. W――――hy._
_Bristol, April 28, 1769._
_My dear Mr. W――――hy_,
I SUPPOSE you have heard, that all arrived safe at _Georgia_, _February
26_. The very moment they cast anchor, fifteen miles from _Savannah_,
an opportunity offered to send a few lines. This is the reason no other
letters are yet come. More may be expected daily. Be so good as to
send a line of information to _Essex_. I believe an opportunity will
soon present, to write by the ship bound for _Savannah_. My packet is
to come up early next week. We finish at _Bath_ next _Sunday_. About
a week more I stay in _Bristol_, or thereabouts. Good seasons every
where. What a mercy, that while the potsherds of the earth are dashing
each other in pieces, the great Head of the church is building up his
spiritual _Jerusalem_! That you and yours may be daily built up in the
most holy faith, earnestly prays,
Less than the least of all,
_G. W._
