To his Brother Charles Date: BRISTOL, April 9, 1739. DEAR BROTHER CHARLES, Against next post I will consider your verses. The clergy here gladiatorio anirno ad nos affectant viarn. Terence's Phormio, v. vii. 71: 'Aim at us with gladiatorial intent.' But the people of all sorts receive the word gladly. Hitherto I have so full employment here that I think there can be no doubt whether I should return already or no. You will hear more from time to time, and judge accordingly. But, whenever it seems expedient I should return, a lot will put it out of doubt. The God of peace fill you with all peace and joy in believing! Adieu. I forgot, I must subscribe to the Kingswood Colliers' Schoolhouse. Journal, ii. 171n, 239n. Whitefield laid the first stone on April 2, and on July 10 the schoolhouse was ready for the roof. So I will take the money of Mr. Wilson.
