Worst behaved congregation JW ever encountered

Wednesday 19 Jan 1785, I returned to Colchester and, on Thursday 20, preached to a lovely congregation at Purfleet and, the next morning, returned to London. On Sunday,23, I preached, morning and afternoon, at West Street and, in the evening, in the chapel at Knightsbridge. I think it will be the last time, for I know not that I have ever seen a worse behaved congregation.
