To Henry Moore Date: BRISTOL, March 14, 1790. DEAR HENRY, I have received the parcel by the coach. I quite approve of your sending the note to all our Assistants, and hope it will have a good effect. I would do anything that is in my power toward the extirpation of that trade which is a scandal not only to Christianity but humanity. Slavery in the abolition of which Wesley took the keenest interest. See letter of Oct. 11, 1787. It will require both time and thought and much patience to bring into execution the other design which we see at a distance. We go on well in this circuit; and no wonder, since John Valton and Adam Clarke and Miss Johnson are here. I am, with kind love to Nancy, Your affectionate friend and brother.
