Plain Text Transcription	To Mr [Christopher] Hopper At the Preaching-house In Bradford Yorkshire London Oct. 13, 1771 My dear brother Methodist preachers cannot have always accommodations fit for gentlemen. But let us look upon David Brainerd and praise God for what we have. In the general, Yarm Circuit is one of the best in England. The living souls make us ample amends for the inconvenient houses. I am persuaded, wherever the assistant is earnest in the matter and has a little address and patience, the weekly contribution will answer the end. Difficulties we must expect. But by the help of God, you will conquer them. If Tommy Hanson and you live till May, you may change again. I am, with love to S[ister] Hopper, Your affectionate friend and brother J Wesley
