_To Mr. M――――, at London._
_Philadelphia, Nov. 10, 1740._ _My dear Brother_,
STILL my LORD shews me greater things. At _New-York_ the Holy Ghost came down like a mighty rushing wind. At _Baskenridge_ still a greater awakening among young and old. One that received CHRIST cried out, “He is come! He is come!” &c. The poor creature was wrapped up in the LORD JESUS: and both there and at _New-York_ my soul was taken almost out of the body. At _Newark_ the LORD worked wonderfully amongst some young men; and here at _Philadelphia_ the word runs very swiftly. This afternoon, how beautiful did the LORD appear in his sanctuary! I would cry out, “How amiable are thy dwellings, thou LORD of hosts!” In several places, almost as large as _Northampton_, are many faithful labourers. We all think and speak the same things: O that it was so at _London_! The LORD enables me to confute error wherever I see it. Pray for me, that I may be made faithful to my LORD and Master: he is dearer to me every day: he will have mercy, because he will have mercy. See brother _L――――_’s letter. Another journal comes out shortly. My hearty love to all. Stand fast in the faith: quit yourselves like men: be strong. Above all, give thanks to GOD; and pray in behalf of, dear Mr. _M――――_,
Your most affectionate brother and servant,
