_To Mr. R―――― K――――n._

_Bath, April 18, 1769._

_My dear Friend_,

HITHERTO GOD hath helped us. A good opening at _Chippenham_. A precious season here on _Sunday_ morning. This evening I am to preach again. To-morrow, GOD willing, I shall set out for _Bristol_, and return hither on _Saturday_ morning. I hope to write to Mr. _W――――r_, by to-morrow’s or _Thursday_’s post. I thank him for his punctual sending the papers. I find by them, who is dead, and by this time buried in _Saint S――――n_’s chapel. The question is, whether there will be a resurrection, or what will be the consequence? Whatever it be, this is our consolation, “the LORD reigneth. Blessed be the GOD of our salvation!” I hope this will find dear Mr. _E――――s_ proclaiming it with abundant success. Tender love to him and to all. Surely they will not cease to pray for,

Less than the least of all,
