Wesley Corpus

To Henry Moore Date: PARKGATE, April 25, 1790. Source: The Letters of John Wesley (1790) Author: John Wesley --- I thank you, my dear Harry, for giving me another proof that you are a man to be depended on.

Dr. Hamilton But how is the fact Is the Society in Dublin quiet or no Is contention forgot or does it continue Are a majority of the people for retaining or for abolishing the eleven o'clock service [See letters of May 6, x788, and May 12, 1790.] Surely Dr. Coke is not well in his senses. I have wrote a loving but plain letter to Arthur Keene [See next letter, and that of July 6, 1789.] (without saying a word of the forenoon service) to this effect: 'You would not have been justified in removing such a friend as me even if I had turned Papist or Mahometan.' -- I am, with kind love to Nancy, dear Henry, Your affectionate friend and brother.
