LETTER MCCCCLIX.

To Mr. R—— K——n.

Philadelphia, May 9, 1770.

My very dear Friend,

THIS leaves me a two days inhabitant of Philadelphia. I embarked at Savannah, in the Georgia packet, on the 24th ultima and arrived here the 6th instant. The evening following, I was enabled to preach to a large auditory, and am to repeat the delightful task this evening. Pulpits, hearts, and affections, seem to be as open and enlarged towards me, as ever. Praise the Lord, O our souls! Whilst I am writing, perhaps Mr. D——n and his wife are ready to sail from Savannah. By them you will receive a large packet concerning Bethesda. All is well, blessed be God, all is more than well there. As yet I have my old plan in view, to travel in these northern parts all summer, and return late in the fall to Georgia. All the letters and packets came safe. I believe you had best write by the New-York packet. But letters directed either to New-York, Boston, or this place, will reach or be sent to me. Through infinite mercy, I still continue in good health, and more and more in love every day with a pilgrim life. God bless you, and all my dear friends and hearers in the great metropolis. I know they pray for me. They are never forgotten day or night. That all may increase with all the increase of God, is the continual cry of, my very dear steady friend,

Less than the least of all,

G. W.
