Wesley Corpus

To James Creighton Date: BRISTOL, March 3, 1789. Source: The Letters of John Wesley (1789) Author: John Wesley --- DEAR SIR, -- I think you may advise Brother Black either (1) When they persecute you in one city, flee to another; we have often done with good success. Or (2) You may write to Lord Inniskillen, a word from whom would terrify the rioters. Or (3) Let Mr. Moore write to one of our lawyers in I)ublin, and inquire which is the best method, -- To move the King's Bench for an information, or to arrest three or four of the chief rioters, with an action of assault and battery. My judgment, if the King's Bench is moved, it should be against one or more of the Justices. -- I am, dear sir, Your affectionate friend and brother.
