To Samuel Bardsley Date: BRISTOL, August 5, 1771. DEAR SAMMY, I had intended you for a more distant circuit, where I believe you would have been exceeding useful. But we can hardly show tenderness enough to an aged parent. Therefore, for your mother's sake, I will alter my design, and appoint you for the Derbyshire Circuit, which you know borders on that of Manchester. Take care to walk closely with God and to exhort others so to do. Be instant in season and out of season. Encourage all to expect salvation now! I am Your affectionate brother.
