This letter was written by Francis while at Northampton, to [John] Sutcliff at Olney in Buckinghamshire. He had arrived in Northampton at about 12 o’clock that day, where he received Sutcliff’s letter of the day before (the 20th). He intended to be with Sutcliff on Thursday the 26th, which left enough time to attend preaching in the morning. He intended to be in Northamptonshire at Kettering and Walgrave, etc over the next week as he had been invited to preach three Sundays in a row at Northampton. His love was to be passed to Mrs Andrews and Sutcliff should tell her that he slept last Tuesday and Wednesday night at good Mr Palmer’s house and all the family were well. The letter was written 21 September, 1793, and can be seen here.
