To Thomas Wride Date: LONDON, January 17, 1777. DEAR TOMMY, If your fellow laborers and you are zealous and active, you will give me a good account of the circuit. I found it in a flourishing state. So will you before you leave it. Robert Empringham has done exactly right as to the sacrament. I advise you to tread in his steps. I wish you would inquire at what price I could have some kind of vessel to carry me from Whitehaven by the isle to Dublin. I am, dear Tommy, Your affectionate friend and brother. I take no horses with me.
