I preached near the main street, without the least disturbance, to a large and attentive
congregation. Thence we rode on to Axminster, but were thoroughly wet before we came
thither. The rain obliged me to preach within at six; but at seven on Sunday morning, I cried
in the market place, "The kingdom of God is at hand; repent ye, and believe the gospel"
[Mark 1:15].
In the evening I preached in the street at Ashburton. Many behaved with decency; but the rest, with such stupid rudeness as I have not seen, for a long time, in any part of England.
