Tuesday, 17.--At five the congregation was large and appeared not a little affected. The
difficulty now was how to get back, for I could not ride the horse on which I came. But this
too was provided for. We met in the street with one who lent me his horse, which was so
easy that I grew better and better till I came to Wolverhampton. None had yet preached
abroad in this furious town; but I was resolved, with God's help, to make a trial, and I ordered
a table to be set in the inn-yard. Such a number of wild men I have seldom seen; but they
gave me no disturbance, either while I preached, or when I afterward walked through the
midst of them.
About five I preached to a far larger congregation at Dudley, and all as quiet as at London. The scene is changed since the dirt and stones of this town were flying about me on every side.
