Free Will Reign of God Repentance
DEAR CHARLES, -- I am glad to hear so good an account of the work of God in Glasgow. But you must not stay there too long at a time. That is not the Methodist plan. I expect, therefore, Brother Johnson and you constantly to change once a quarter. It does not appear that we have as yet any place in Greenock. But I am glad you have paid a visit to Air. Many things have hindered Brother Barber. [Thomas Barber was at Castlebar, Tiverton.] But I hope you will see him soon. It seems Brother Surer is in his place--I am, dear Charles, Your affectionate friend and brother. To the Rev. Mr. Charles Armore, In Glasgow. To Mrs. Foley [LONDON, November 3, 1781 ().] Your occasions of fight [will lead you to] conquer. The danger is, lest that inflammation should turn to a cancer. Probably this may be prevented by an easy remedy. Make a strong decoction of Briar-leaves, and gargle your mouth with it eight or ten times a day. See neither of you grow weary in your mind! -- I am, my dear sister, Yours affectionately. To Mrs. Foley, At Quinton, Near Birmingham. To Mrs. Barton LONDON, November 6, 1781.
