To James Dempster Date: BALLINROBE, May 19, 1775. DEAR JEMMY, That one point I earnestly recommend, both to Brother Rankin and you and all our preachers by prayer, by exhortation, and by every possible means, to oppose a party spirit. This has always, so far as it prevailed, been the bane of all true religion, more especially when a country was in such a situation as America is now. None but the God of almighty love can extricate the poor people out of the snare. O what need have you to besiege His throne with all the power of prayer! I am, dear Jemmy, Yours affectionately.
