LETTER CCXXXVII.

_Saint George’s (Pensylvania) Nov. 24, 1740._

_Dear Brother T――――_,

GOD has revived his own work in _Philadelphia_. His glory filled

the great house. The affairs belonging thereto, I believe, are

well settled. We have had precious times at _Cohansi_, _Salem_,

_Fogs-mannor_, _Nottingham_, _Whiteclay_, _Creek_ and _Bohemia_.

Brother _G――――_ is come from _England_ very opportunely. Brother

_S――――_ comes about _Christmas_. The brethren I think do grow, though

sadly divided. But our LORD will order all for good.――Upon several

accounts, I think it best to embark for _England_ as soon as possible

in the Spring. O pray for me, that I may not by any means grieve the

children of GOD. I hope the weather is warm enough for you. I trust

our LORD has warmed and filled your dear soul. Your brother _Charles_

is with me. My dear fellow travellers salute you and our dear brother

_R――――_. My love to all that love the LORD JESUS. The war goes

on bravely between _Michael_ and the _Dragon_. Our dear LORD (O

condescending love!) is wonderous kind to your poor, weak, unworthy

brother and servant in

CHRIST,

_G. W._
