The sun shining in my face was a little troublesome

Sat. 16 July 1774. I went to Epworth and preached in the market-place to a numerous and quiet congregation. Sunday 17, about eight, I preached at Misterton. The sun shining in my face was a little troublesome at first but was soon covered with clouds. We had an useful sermon at Haxey church. About one, I preached at Upperthorpe; and between four and five, the rain being stayed, I began in Epworth market-place. Such a congregation never met there before. And they did not meet in vain.
