LETTER DXXVIII.
T o Mr. B――.
Bristol, July 19, 1743.
Dear Friend, I Have been so employed for some time past in preaching and travelling, that I could not possibly correspond with you or others as usual; but you see where I am; I came here to preach at the fair; because people from all parts flock hither at that season. Yesterday I preached four times, and twice statedly every day. O that sinners may be made willing to come and buy of Christ's wine, and of Christ's milk, without money and without price! Last night was such a time as I never saw in Bristol society before. To-morrow,
God willing, I set out for Hampton, to see what can be done for the poor persecuted sheep of Christ there. I hear I am threatened, but Jesus will stand by me. In what manner, expect to hear again soon, from Yours, &c.
G. W.
