LETTER CCCCLXVI.

_To Mr. J―――― T――――, in Edinburgh._

_London, Nov. 6, 1742._

_Dear Mr. T――――_,

ABOUT five this evening, our ever blessed JESUS brought us hither,

and gave us a happy meeting with our dear friends. How good is JESUS

to the chief of sinners! He solaced my soul all the way, and gave his

angels charge concerning us, otherwise we must have been frequently

hurt in our ways: but he heard the prayers of his people. I am

persuaded he gave them a spirit of supplication in our behalf. I felt

it, I feel it now, and long to preach again. My dear friend, remember

us in the dearest manner to all. I hope to write to several on

_Monday_ next. How sweet is rest after fatigue! How sweet will heaven

be, when our journey is ended. Forgive the brevity of this.

Ever yours,

_G. W._
