    [Letter mutilated. Address panel and left margin wanting] Sept. 4, 1779 [D]ear Joseph If there is ever a single man [ei]ther in the Nottingham or [Lei]cester Circuit, who will go [to] Canterbury in your stead let [hi]m set out without delay. It [is] all one to Your Affectionate Brother J Wesley [Wesley was in Bristol at this time, although he does not include the place in this letter. Richard Heitzenrater speculates that “Joseph may been Joseph Pescod, who was in the Leicester circuit in 1777 and 1779 (in Pembroke in 1778), or perhaps Joseph Harper, who had been appointed to the Kent (Canterbury) circuit in 1778, the previous year (which had just ended). The minutes also list in Kent for 1778 (along with James Rogers) a third person simply by initials, M. F. (for Michael Fenwick, who fell out of favor). I think Michael was a single rascal so perhaps Wesley was trying to replace him with another single man.”
