LETTER MCCLXVIII.
T o the Reverend Mr. T――.
Edinburgh, September 2, 1762.
I AM just this moment returned from Glasgow, where I have been enabled to preach every day, and twice at Cambuslang. Auditories were large, and Jesus smiled upon my feeble labours. God willing, I shall leave this place on Wednesday next; but I despair of seeing you. I have heard nothing of Mr.
M――n and V――n since I left them at Leeds. What a mercy, that we are sure of meeting in heaven! Surely, you will not go before me thither. Must it be always juniores priores? Adieu. Cordial respects await your whole self.
Lord Jesus be with your spirits! I fear the carrier will be gone. Accept these few rusty filings from, my very dear friend,
Yours, &c. &c. &c. in our glorious Jesus, G. W.
September 9.
Thus far I went on Friday; but found that was the wrong day to send.
Since then, I have been helped to preach every day. The Kirk hath been a
Bethel. Grace! grace! On Monday, God willing, I shall set off. Follow with your prayers.
Yours, &c. &c.
G. W.
