LETTER DVIII.
T o the Same.
Swanzey, April 12, 1743.
My dear Friend, I Hope all is well with you. Great things are doing in Wales.—An effectual door is opened for preaching the everlasting gospel. Yesterday I preached at Neath, (seven miles from this place) from a balcony, to about three thousand souls in the street. The Lord was with me of a truth. This morning I preached here to about four thousand with great power. About one I preached at Harbrook, four miles off; and am now returned to preach here again.—Our Saviour has prepared the way before him. O free grace!
Dear brother H―― has discoursed in Welch yesterday and to day.
Ever yours, G. W.
Postscript. Past seven in the evening. I have just now done preaching.
Swanzey is taken! I never preached with a more convincing power. Many of
the rich and great were present. The congregation larger than in the morning. Free grace for ever!
