To James Oddie Date: LONDON, February 14, 1768. DEAR JEMMY, I require William Ellis Oddie's third colleague at Newcastle. to go into the Dales (if he is not gone already) without delay. Otherwise I require you to forbid his preaching in any of our Societies. Push on the collection in God's name! I think you will not easily stop short of seven hundred. See letters of Jan. 12 and 15. It is not right, Jemmy; it is not right. They envy the rooms of those poor girls, The Misses Dale at the Orphan House. and want at all hazards to thrust them out. I wrote to Molly Dale on Saturday in haste; but to-day I have wrote her my cooler thoughts. Peace be with you and yours. Dear Jemmy, adieu
