SECOND VISIT TO AMERICA. (continued 5)
Reading edition
"There are not a few who think the following prophecy of Nixon (being as yet, it is supposed, unfulfilled) has a respect to the Rev. Mr. Whitefield and his followers, and that it will have its accomplishment in the Christian people called Methodists:—
"A young new set of men, of virtuous manners, shall come, who shall prosper, and make a flourishing Church for two hundred years."
Among the countless Methodist broad-sheets, issued in the days of Whitefield and the Wesleys, there are none more curious than this of J. Lewis, of Bartholomew Close, London.
