To Mrs. Woodhouse Date: LEWISHAM, NEAR LONDON, July 30, 1773. MY DEAR SISTER, I am sorry for poor Mr. Fletcher See letter of April 1 to her; but still more for poor Mary Meggot Was she the widow of Samuel Maggot See Journal, v. 465; and letter of Feb. 10, 1783, of whom I expected better things. She may now keep the room for her new guests, for certainly we shall have nothing to do with them. The point they aim at is this to make Calvinists. Our point is to make Christians. They endeavor to convert men to the dear Decrees; we to convert them to God. In every place they have used their whole strength in opposition to us. But you and many more will not be tossed to and fro with every wind of doctrine. Stand fast in the truth which you have received, and be not removed from the hope of the gospel. I desire the building The chapel at Misterton may be finished without delay. Follow after all the fullness of the promises. My wife joins with me in love to you, with, my dear sister, Your affectionate brother.
