Letter to Reverend Benjamin Colman

Westfield, October 11, 1738. Sir,

In your letter of August 19 you inform us that the Reverend Dr. Watts and Dr. Guyse desire that some other ministers, who were eye and ear witnesses to some of those numerous conversions in the other towns about Northampton, would attest to what the Reverend Mr. Edwards has written of them.

We take this opportunity to assure you that the account Mr. Edwards has given in his narrative of our several towns or parishes is true, and that much more of the like nature might have been added with respect to some of them.

We are, Reverend Sir, your brethren and servants. William Williams, Pastor of Hatfield. Ebenezer Devotion, of Suffield. Stephen Williams, of Long Meadow. Peter Raynolds, of Enfield. Nehemiah Bull, of Westfield. Samuel Hopkins, of West Springfield.
