of faith and love, and zealous ofgood works. I preached both in the evening and the next morning with the demonstration of the Spirit ; and all the congregation, rich and poor, appeared to be sensible of it. Saturday, 16. We had an easy journey to Brecon, where I preached in the evening. Sunday, 17. I preached in the Room at eight, on the fruit of the Spirit. In the evening I preached in the spacious Town- Hall, so filled as it had never been before. I think there is a little company here that are truly alive to God. Monday, 18. Iwent on to Carmarthen, and preached at six, on 2 Cor. v. 19; and again at five in the morning, Tuesday, 19, when the Room was well filled. A servant of Mr. Bowen's came early in the morning, to show us the way to Llyngwair : And itwas well he did; for I do not know that we could otherwise have found our way thither. We met (as I expected) with ahearty welcome. At five I preached in Newport church, to a large congregation, and with a greater prospect of doing good than ever I had before We passed an agreeable evening at Llyngwair. Wednesday, 20. I went to Tracoon, one of the most venerable seats in Great Britain. The good old house is buried in woods and mountains, having no resemblance to any place I have seen. It is just suited to the good old Admiral, with his four maiden sisters ; the youngest ofwhom, I suppose, has lived more thanseventy years. I preached at twelve, and in the afternoon went on to Haverford- west. The Room was filled sufficiently, and I could not but believe God will build up the waste places. Thur. 21. The Roomwaswell filled at five. Finding there had been no discipline here for some time, I determined to begin at the foundation, and settle every thing. So I first visited and regulated the classes, then restored the bands,which had been totally neglected, and then gave directions for meeting the Leaders both of bands and classes. After preaching in the evening, I met the society, and gave them awarm exhortation, -to set out anew . I trust they will ; and all the present Preachers, I am persuaded,will neglect nothing. Fri. 22.-I went to Pembroke. Here, likewise, not one Aug. 1788.] 435
