_To Mr. I―――― C――――._
_Bristol, May 18, 1741._
_Dear Brother C――――_,
I Received your letter this morning, and am just setting out for
_Wiltshire_. The LORD hath been much with us. Yesterday I preached
three times. At every sermon, a sweet melting was observed in the
congregation. Last night I gave your sister the sacrament; she is
recovering. I afterwards, administered the sacrament at Mr. _T――――_’s,
and had a love feast. JESUS was in the midst of us. I know not
but I may come towards _London_ next week. I wonder not at your
heaviness.――Before every increase of your work, you must expect some
trials. Humblings are necessary for your spirit, and mine. I return
my love to all. I must away. Brother _H――――_ rejoices in spirit, and
joins with me, who am,
Ever yours in CHRIST,
_G. W._
