Not Permitted to Preach

1778 Sun. 9. I preached at eight in the market-place at Dewsbury to some thousands of serious people, as Mr. Powley would not permit me to preach in the church ‘because it would give offence’!
After visiting Bradford and Halifax, I struck across to Manchester and Stockport, and went on by moderate journeys to London.
