To Adam Clarke Date: MANCHESTER, April 14, 1790. Source: The Letters of John Wesley (1790) Author: John Wesley --- DEAR ADAM, -- You have done exceeding well in searching this diabolical matter to the bottom and in arming our innocent members of the Society against that plausible delusion. I am glad you have at length succeeded in plucking honest Mr. Durbin out of the net. I have now hopes that his poor daughter will be delivered and will live to be a comfort to him. I wish you would write a particular account of your own state of health to Dr. Whitehead; and follow his advice with regard to every point, except the leaving off of preaching. I think, if I had taken this advice many years since, I should not have been a living man. Peace be with you and yours! -- I am, dear Adam, Your affectionate friend and brother.
