To Mr. R—— K——n.
Bath, April 18, 1769.
My dear Friend,
HITHERTO God hath helped us. A good opening at Chippenham. A precious season here on Sunday morning. This evening I am to preach again. To-morrow, God willing, I shall set out for Bristol, and return hither on Saturday morning. I hope to write to Mr. W——r, by to-morrow’s or Thursday’s post. I thank him for his punctual sending the papers. I find by them, who is dead, and by this time buried in Saint S——n’s chapel. The question is, whether there will be a resurrection, or what will be the consequence? Whatever it be, this is our consolation, “the Lord reigneth. Blessed be the God of our salvation!” I hope this will find dear Mr. E——s proclaiming it with abundant success. Tender love to him and to all. Surely they will not cease to pray for,
Less than the least of all,
G. W.
