To Jonathan Crowther Date: NEAR BATH, September 25, 1787. DEAR JONATHAN, The sum of the matter is, you want money; and money you shall have, if I can beg, borrow, or anything but steal. I say, therefore, 'Dwell in the land and be doing good, and verily thou shalt be fed.' See letter of Aug. 31, 1775. I should be sorry for the death of Brother Burbeck but that I know God does all things well; and if His work prospers in your hands, this will make your labors light. Oar preachers now find in the North of Scotland what they formerly found all over England; yet they went on; and when I had only blackberries to eat in Cornwall In Sept. 1743. See Wesley's Veterans, iii. 81. still God gave me strength sufficient for my work. I am, dear Jonathan, Your affectionate brother. PS. To Mr. Atlay: Pay to Jonathan Crowther or his order, five guineas.
