Plain Text Transcription	To Mr Furly At Mr Greenwood’s Tullamore May 1, 1758 Dear Sammy Two conversations I have had with the Bishop of Londonderry and processimus pulchre [“we made good progress”]. I intend to write to him in a few days, and then I shall be able to form a better judgment. He loves the Methodists from his heart. But he is not free from the fear of man. Yet I have much hope that love will conquer fear. Will it not conquer all sin? Why do you not go every afternoon to visit the sick? Can you find a more profitable employment? I am, Your affectionate brother J Wesley
