_To Mrs. D――――, at Gransden._
_London, July 17, 1741._ _My dear Sister_,
I Bless GOD that I saw you at _Gransden_. The LORD was with us, and has been with me the remaining part of my journey. We shall yet see greater things than these. Wonderful things from abroad. The inclosed will shew you, how desirous my family is of corresponding with you. Pray write to my dear little orphans, boys and girls. GOD, I hear, hath been working powerfully upon their hearts. I would have you also write to Mr. _J―――― B――――_, a converted planter; to Mrs. _B――――_, his kinswoman, who has lately received the assurance of faith; to Mr. _C――――_, a dear baptist minister; to Mrs. _S――――_, who is carried on the wings of faith and love; and to my dear Mr. _H――――_, who is Superintendant of the Orphan-house affairs. You will excuse this freedom. I am willing your usefulness should be as extensive as may be. May the LORD bless you ever, more and more. I expect to go to _Scotland_ shortly. A ship will soon sail towards _Georgia_. Write soon, dear Mrs. _D――――_, to
Your affectionate brother and servant in CHRIST,
