_To Mr. S―――― M――――, at London._
_Bristol, April 27, 1741._ _My dear Friend and Brother_,
ON _Tuesday, April 22d_, I left _London_, and preached on _Wednesday_ and _Thursday_ morning at _Newbury_, to large congregations. On _Friday_ evening I preached at _Bristol_, and have continued to do so twice every day to great and affected auditories. I received your kind letter, and thank you for it. I rejoice in the good news from _New-England_. Last night, I rejoiced much in seeing a soul wonderfully exult in GOD, just at the borders of death. Great manifestations of the divine presence have attended my sermons. Praise the LORD O my soul! I am glad to find Mr. _S――――_ goes on well. Pray give my love to brother _G――――_. My body is sometimes weak, but my soul rejoices in GOD my Saviour. I know not, whether I shall come so soon as proposed to _London_. I find it necessary, through the increase of awakened souls, to get a society-room built adjoining to our new tabernacle. I pray GOD to fill it with his glory, and beg leave to subscribe myself, dear Mr. _M――――_, Your affectionate friend, brother and servant in CHRIST,
