My very Dear Brother Harris,

         I rejoyce to hear by Dear Brother Ingram, that ye Lord’s Work still goes on in Wales, & yt you are still upheld in yr blessed Labours in his Gospel. The Lord increase you more & more! – I have recd ye Money for ye Books, wch most kindly you sent to Mr Start for me. I forget if I told you of it in my last[.]  The Lord reward all yr Kindness to unworthy me, an Hundred-fold! I shd be glad of a Line from you before you leave London. And if you write, wd be glad to know if you’ve seen Dear Mr. Erskine since you came to Town, & if he’s well; as I writ to him some Week’s since, to desire him to acquaint with some Things, & hav’t yet heard from him. –

         The Lord is exceeding good to me. His Presence be with you ! In Haste, with great love, I subscribe,

                                 Dear Sir,

                                             Yours entirely & foreer in our most

Dear & Precious Lord Jesus,
