JW sends preachers to Scotland

Monday, August 1, 1785. Having with a few select friends, weighed the matter thoroughly, I yielded to their judgment and set apart three of our well-tried preachers, John Pawson, Thomas Hanby, and Joseph Taylor, to minister in Scotland. And I trust God will bless their ministrations and show that he has sent them. Wednesday 3, our peaceful Conference ended, the God of power having presided over all our consultations.
