Wesley Corpus

To his Brother Charles Date: LEEDS, July 31, 1775. Source: The Letters of John Wesley (1775) Author: John Wesley --- DEAR BROTHER,--I must not delay answering your important question, ' What can be done with William Pine ' If he still, after my earnest warning, 'every week publishes barefaced treason,' I beg you would once more warn him in my name and in your own; and if he slights or forgets this warning, then give him his choice either to leave us quietly or to be publicly disowned. At such a time as this, when our foreign enemies are hovering over us and our own nation is all in a ferment, it is particularly improper to say one word which tends to inflame the minds of the people. My strength is gradually increasing. Except the shaking of my hand, I am now nearly as I was before my illness, but I hope more determined to sell all for the pearl. Peace be with you and yours! Adieu!
