_To Mr. J―――― T――――, in Edinburgh._
_London, Nov. 6, 1742._ _Dear Mr. T――――_,
ABOUT five this evening, our ever blessed JESUS brought us hither, and gave us a happy meeting with our dear friends. How good is JESUS to the chief of sinners! He solaced my soul all the way, and gave his angels charge concerning us, otherwise we must have been frequently hurt in our ways: but he heard the prayers of his people. I am persuaded he gave them a spirit of supplication in our behalf. I felt it, I feel it now, and long to preach again. My dear friend, remember us in the dearest manner to all. I hope to write to several on _Monday_ next. How sweet is rest after fatigue! How sweet will heaven be, when our journey is ended. Forgive the brevity of this.
Ever yours,
