Wesley Corpus

To Adam Clarke Date: LONDON, November 5, 1788. Source: The Letters of John Wesley (1788) Author: John Wesley --- MY DEAR BROTHER am always well pleased to hear from you. I am glad you visit Guernsey. You must in no wise confine yourself to Jersey. It would be a sin against God and the people. You ought not to spend more than twice as much time in Jersey as you do out of it. It would have been quite wrong to have made a collection for Dr. Coke at this critical time. The Doctor is often too hasty. He does not maturely consider all circumstances. If you have any money in your hands, you may expend what I subscribed and draw upon me for it. Probably at the Conference your sphere of action will be enlarged. I hope in the meantime you will not suffer Sister Clarke to be unemployed. See that she fulfill the office of a deaconess. Peace be with all your spirits! I think it will be well to sell the old chapel. [See letter of June 1, 1789.] -- I am Your affectionate friend and brother.
