Between four and five we set out from Roughlee. But observing several parties of men
upon the hills and suspecting their design, we put on and passed the lane they were making
for before they came. One of our brothers, not riding so fast, was intercepted by them. They
immediately knocked him down, and how it was that he got from among them he knew
not.
Before seven we reached Widdop. The news of what had passed at Barrowford made us all friends. The person in whose house Mr. B. preached, sent and begged I would preach there; which I did at eight, to such a congregation as none could have expected on so short a warning. He invited us also to lodge at his house, and all jealousies vanished away.
