Chapter CCCXXXIX: Letter CCCXL: To Mr. T―――― G――――, at London

_Edinburgh, Aug. 8, 1741._

YOU will see, my dear brother, by the following, what GOD is still doing for me. On _Sunday_ evening, I preached in a field near the Orphan-house, to upwards of fifteen thousand people; and on _Monday_, _Friday_, and _Saturday_ evening, to near as many. On _Tuesday_ I preached in the _Cannongate_ church; on _Wednesday_ and _Thursday_ at _Dumfermling_; and at my return on _Friday_ morning, at about eight o’clock, I preached at a town called _Queens-Ferry_, seven miles from _Edinburgh_. Every where the auditories were large, and very attentive. Great power accompanied the word. Many have been brought under convictions; and I have already received several invitations to different places, which, GOD willing, I intend to comply with. At present I can say no more, but desire you to pray for, and expect soon to hear further from,

Your affectionate friend and servant in CHRIST,

_G. W._
