Wednesday, 21.--Some applied to the Quakers at Enniscorthy, for the use of their
meeting-house. They refused: so I stood at Hugh McLaughlin's door, and both those within
and without could hear. I was in doubt which way to take from hence, one of my chaise-horses being much tired, till a gentleman of Ballyrane, near Wexford, told me, if I would
preach at his house the next evening, he would meet me on the road with a fresh horse. So
I complied, though it was some miles out of the way. Accordingly, he met us on Thursday,
22, six or seven miles from Enniscorthy. But we found his mare would not draw at all; so
we were forced to go on as we could. I preached in the evening at Ballyrane, to a deeply
serious congregation. Early in the morning we set out and at two in the afternoon came to
Ballibac Ferry.
