To Richard Boardman () Date: NEAR LONDON, January 12, 1776. MY DEAR BROTHER, I rejoice to hear so good an account of the work of God and of my dear friends Mr. and Mrs. 'Smith. I believe I shall send you a man after your own heart, a stanch, sensible, solid man, and one that I trust is a living witness of the grand Christian doctrine. Our little books you should spread wherever you go. Reading Christians will be knowing Christians. My health (blessed be God) is perfectly restored. I am Your affectionate friend and brother.
