John Wesley to George Merryweather in Yarm, Yorkshire, January 24th, 1760
John Wesley is writing to George Merryweather (c.1743-1817), recommending two books to Methodists, ' The Christian Pattern' and Wesley's 'Primitive Physic' - "Tis great pity, that any Methodist shou'd be without them". Wesley also comments somewhat high-handedly on a rich gentleman he breakfasted with recently at Yarm, "Even the Rich may (underscored) enter into the Kingdom: for with God all things are possible."
Merryweather was a wealthy salt merchant involved deeply in the Methodist cause and friendly with John Wesley.
