St Mary Woolnoth

It was from John Newton, 1725 to 1807, of old the godless sailor land, then the captain of a slave ship on the Atlantic.

Later, after long convictions, in which a glance at Thomas a Kempis had a place, brought under Whitfield's mighty influence, at length ordained, curate in charge of Olney for fifteen years, and now recently made rector of St. Mary's Woolnoth in the city.

Newton's repute for Christian good sense had already led Simeon to his door in Charles Square, Hoxton, and he now wrote a letter of admirable counsel, spiritual and practical, to his Cambridge friend.

A few sentences must be the sample.

Ten days later another and longer letter reached him dated Hoxton, London.
