To William Alwood NORWICH, March 29, 1759. DEAR BILLY, I believe each window may stand eight foot (the bottom of it) from the ground, The preaching-house at York was being built. See letter of March 6 to Alwood. and be four foot broad and six or seven high, arched at the top. If you think it would do good, I should have no objection to preaching at Selby about eleven o'clock, as I come from Epworth, on Wednesday, April 18. Oblige Dr. Cockburn as far as possibly you can. We can bear with little tempers, though we do not approve of them. I can say little now to what T. Tobias One of Alwood's colleagues. A letter from him to Wesley is given in Atmore's Memorial, PP. 429-30. He died about the year 1767. writes of. I should think a patient, mild man might quiet two scolding women. Billy, pray and labour with your might. You may direct your next to me at Epworth. I am Your affectionate friend and brother. I doubt Sister Hall Ruth Hall (born at Woolley, near Barnsley, in 1732) did much for the spread of Methodism in and around York. See Lyth's Methodism in York, pp. 69-71; Arminian Mag. 1781, p. 477, 1789, p. 303. forgets me.
