MY DEAR BROTHER, You have great reason to praise God for the late glorious work at and near Newry. And I make no doubt but it will continue, yea and increase, if the subjects of it continue to walk humbly and closely with God. Exhort all our brethren steadily to wait upon God in the appointed means of prayer and fasting. The latter of which has been almost. universally neglected by the Methodists both in England and Ireland. But it is a true remark of Kempis, 'The more thou deniest thyself, the more thou wilt grow in grace.' I am Your affectionate friend and brother. To Thomas Roberts LONDON, October 23, 1790. Your affectionate friend and brother. To Mr. Roberts, At the Preaching-house belonging To the Rev. Mr. Wesley in Carmarthen. To his Niece Sarah Wesley HINXWORTH, October 27, 1790. MY DEAR SALLY, I am glad you have found benefit at Margate; and am persuaded the sea and the journey together will help you, not only as to your particular complaint but as to your health in general. On Saturday I am to return to London, and to remain a fortnight before I begin my next journey. So you should contrive to be with us when you can. You know you are always welcome. I stay here to write two or three lines before I set out for Bedford, He left Hinxworth at twelve that morning for Bedford. lest you should fear your letter had miscarried. Dear Sally, adieu! To Adam Clarke BEDFORD, October 28, 1790.
