To George Merryweather NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, June 7, 1761. MY DEAR BROTHER, I had allotted two nights for Yarm; but by the advice of our brethren here I have made a little alteration in my plan. On Wednesday and Thursday the 18th instant I am to be at Stockton. On Friday evening and Saturday noon I purpose (with God's leave) to preach at Yarm. He preached at Yarm on the Friday evening at seven, and on Saturday at noon 'applied those words, "Now abide faith, hope, love; but the greatest of these is love."' See Journal, iv. 464; and letter of Jan. 24, 1760. On Saturday evening I am to be at Hutton Rudby, which is nearer the centre of our Societies. I am Your affectionate brother.
