Chapter CXCIX: Letter DCXCV: To Mr. H――――

_Cambuslang, Oct. 9, 1748._

_My dear Mr. H――――_,

HAVE you not suspected, that I have forgotten you? but indeed I have not. As a testimony of it, though late, accept a line of love, even love unfeigned. I hope you are well, and that affairs go on at the Tabernacle as well as can be expected. I trust the shout of a king is amongst you. Blessed be GOD, he has caused his gospel to triumph in _Scotland_. I have been humbled and exalted; humbled first, in order to be exalted afterwards. Thus it is.――The LORD wounds and then heals. At present I am in the place where the great awakening was about six years ago. The fruits of it yet remain. To morrow, GOD willing, I take my leave at _Glasgow_. I believe we shall have a sorrowful parting. As I expect to stop in _Yorkshire_, I suppose I cannot reach _London_ till the latter end of this month, if so soon. O for a warm winter! You must remember me to all. I cannot now descend to particulars. I can only pray, that you and yours may be filled with all the fulness of GOD, and subscribe myself,

Yours most affectionately in the glorious JESUS,
_G. W._
