Providence of God and a transformed life memoir
A letter from Kendal 1809 introduces Matthew Wilson of Oxonfell born to poor, irreligious parents, who after a hard life of vice and drunkenness finds salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. A widow recounts his illness, his vow against work, and his gradual spiritual awakening with missionary Rawson and the Methodist Society.
