MY DEAR BRETHERN, - I have no connection at all with Thomas Coleman. I am not satisfied with his behavior. I desire Mr. Wrigley, Francis Wrigley, James Perfect were preachers in Kent. Booth, and Perfect to act as if there was no such person in the world. Coleman opened a school at Margate about 1767, and used the room for preaching. See Journal, vii. 128; W.H.S. xvii. 73 As many of our Society in Margate as choose to remain under my care I desire to receive these as they would myself. Commending you all to the God of peace and love, I am, my dear brothers and sisters, Your affectionate brother.","word_count":121,"source_url":null,"themes":["universal-redemption","social-holiness","catholic-spirit"],"created_at":"2026-01-30T05:15:01.832246"}]}
