_To Mr. H――――._
_London, April 10, 1741._
_My very dear Friend_,
I Ordered Mr. _H――――_ to send you some sermons and accounts, some time
ago: I suppose he has done it. I have been at the Parliament-house;
the _Georgia_ affair was adjourned. The gentlemen seemed apprehensive
that my account of the colony, would have too much weight. It was
somewhat of a trial to be in the House. I then remembered what the
Apostle said, “We are become a spectacle to men and to angels.” My
appeal will come to nothing, I believe. I have waited upon the Speaker;
he received me kindly. I cannot yet determine when I shall see you. If
you fear, I hope you will pray for me. The LORD blesses my ministry.
Salute dear Mrs. _H――――_: I will write to her next; but you two are
one. The LORD be with you both. At present I am weak in body, and
therefore must beg leave to subscribe myself
Yours, &c.
_G. W._
