Wesley Corpus

To Joseph Taylor Date: BRISTOL, September 24, 1752. Source: The Letters of John Wesley (1782) Author: John Wesley --- DEAR JOSEPH, -- Joseph Andrew writes to me about his keeping the books still. I answer, ‘It was determined at the Conference that the books all over England should be kept by the Assistant in each circuit.’ [See letters of Sept. 9.] I believe he has discharged this office well; but I believe you will discharge it better. You do not expect to do your duty without giving offence Recommend the Magazines, Kempis, and the Primitive Physick in earnest. And take care of the bands and the children. -- I am, dear Joseph, Your affectionate friend and brother.
