I have another favor to beg of you to procure Mr. Belcher's See letters of March 15, 1748, and May 28, 1757. leave for me to enclose my proof-sheets Explanatory Notes upon the New Testament. The work was begun on Jan. 6, 1754. See Journal, iv. 91; Green's Bibliography, No. 172; and letter of June 20. to him. Mr. C. Perronet Charles Perronet had charge of the Notes, which Wesley was passing through the press. See Jackson's Chs Wesley, ii. 87; and letter of Sept. 12 to Blackwell. sends them down to me in thanks; then I correct and send them back to him. The next week I am to spend at Liverpool. Toward the end of the week following I hope to be at Haworth, near Keighley, in Yorkshire. God has blessed me with a prosperous journey hither, though the roads and the weather were rough. I hope both Mrs. Blackwell and you are making the best use of a things, rough and smooth. That is the part of a good solder of Jesus Christ, To trace His example, the world to disdain, And cheerfully trample on pleasure and pain. Poetical Works v. 427. I am, dear sir, Your very affectionate servant.
