Wesley Corpus

Wed. 19.--After preaching at Freshford, I rode on to Kingswood. Fri. 21.--Being at dinner, in a moment I felt as if a small bone had stuck in the palate of my mouth. Nothing was to be seen; but the 646 REY. J. WESLEY’S JOURNAL. [ Nov. 1757. swelling and inflammation increased till toward evening, (notwithstanding all means that could be used,) and then spread to both the tonsils. In the morning I was rather worse than better, till about half an hour after eight. Then, as the disorder came in a moment, it went in a moment, and I was as well as ever. Mon. 24.--I preached about noon at Bath, and in the evening at Escot, near Lavington.
