Letter XLVI

Blackfriars, June 24, 1777

My very good Friend: — Our journey is settled for Thursday morning next; we move slowly. Hope to be with you on Saturday, perhaps to dinner. Will you desire

Mr, B to give me leave to speak to his

people, Sunday morning. I shall take it as a

favor. I have seen poor D; he is a very

great penitent. The Lord has brought him through the fire; a miracle of mercy. Before this reach you, it’s likely he will be adoring the love of a triune God. My journey has been with much prayer. He that makes men to be of one mind in a house, will, I hope, unite us to himself by his loving Spirit, and render us useful to each other, as iron sharpeneth iron. I do not, I cannot, forget your family, Mr. M, and your beloved Isaac: I often have them on my mind. I am, with great respect in our common Lord, yours,

W. R.
