LETTER MCCLXVI.

To Mrs. C——.

London, May 28, 1762.

Dear Mrs. C——.

I AM just now come to town for a few days, sensibly better by my country excursion. Once more I have had the honour of taking the field, and have now some hopes of not being as yet quite thrown aside as a broken vessel. Help me to praise Him, whose mercy endureth for ever. Why do you persist in keeping poor Mr. D—— in suspense? If not done before, I expect to marry you both immediately upon my arrival, but do not stay for that. Your hint about Mr. S——’s being inclined to the ministry, made me smile. Mr. R——’s account shall be paid as soon as possible. But I beg no such thing may be done again. This is wrote in very great haste, hearing that the ship is gone. I wrote to all from Bristol, very lately. This must now do for all. God bless and reward you. Amen and Amen! I am, dear Mrs. C——,

Yours, &c. &c. in Jesus,

G. W.
