Wesley Corpus

Mon. 25.--Having settled all the business on which I came, I set out early, and on Tuesday called at Windsor. I found here also a few, who have peace with God, and are full of love both to him, and to one another. In the evening I preached at the Foundery, on, ‘ Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord.” Fri. 29.--I spent an hour with poor Mr. M----e. His usual frown was vanished away. His look was clear, open and composed. He listened to the word of reconciliation with all possible marks of deep attention, though he was too weak to speak. Before I went, we commended him to the grace of God, in confidence that our prayer was heard: to whom, at two in the morning, he resigned his spirit, without any sigh or groan. Tues. June 2.--I spoke plainly to Mr. Piers, who told me he had been much shaken by the still brethren. But the snare is broken: I left him rejoicing in hope, and praising God for the consolation. Thur. 4.--I exhorted a crowded congregation, not to “receive the grace of God in vain.” The same exhortation I enforced on the society : (about nine hundred persons:) and by their fruits it doth appear that they begin to love one another, “ not in word” only, “ but in deed and in truth.” Frit. 5.--Hearing that a deaf and dumb man near Marienborn, had procured a remarkable letter to be wrote into England, J asked James Hutton, if he knew of that letter; and what the purport of it was. He answered, yes; he had read the letter; but had quite forgot what it was about. I then asked Mr. V--, who replied, the letter was short, but he did net remember the purport of it.
