Wesley Corpus

To Adam Clarke Date: SHEFFIELD, July 2, 1786. Source: The Letters of John Wesley (1786) Author: John Wesley --- DEAR ADAM, - I really know not what to say. Many desire that you should be in Bradford Circuit next year; but I imagined it was your own desire, which, therefore, I intended to comply with. But if you think you could do more good in another place you may be in another. I commend you for staying in the Dock during the Conference. [That is, in his circuit at Plymouth Dock. John King was his colleague. Clarke was appointed to Jersey at Conference. He was in love with Mary Cooke, of Trowbridge. See letters of Sept. 14, 1785, and May 17, 1787.] Brother King may either come or stay with you, as you shah agree. Be much in prayer, and God will direct you right. - I am, dear Adam, Yours affectionately.
