LETTER MCCXCIV.
To Mr. R—— K——n.
Philadelphia, October 21, 1763.
My very dear Mr. K——n,
THE bearer, Mr. R——d, is a young sober gentleman, intended for the temple, and will be very glad to see and hear Mr. Romaine, and other gospel ministers. I hope all are flaming for God, even a God in Christ. Here are some young bright witnesses rising up in the church. Perhaps I have already conversed with forty new-creature ministers of various denominations. Sixteen hopeful students, I am credibly informed, were converted at New-Jersey college, last year. What an open door, if I had strength! But—Father, thy will be done! blessed be His name, I can preach now and then. Last Tuesday we had a remarkable season among the Lutherans. Children and grown people were much impressed. Grace! grace! If possible, I intend returning with Mr. H——m (now here) to Georgia. You will hear the determination by the next ship, that goes very soon. I wrote to dear Mr. H——y very lately, by way of Bristol. Tender, tender love to him, and to all. I have scarce time to beg the continued interest of all your prayers, in behalf of, my dear steady old friend,
Yours, &c. in our Jesus,
G. W.
