Many are the curious items in the list of circuit payments and allowances. The yearly salary paid to Wesley was £30; to his brother £60; to Creighton, £61; to Dickenson, £50; to Coke, £30; while the quarterage to the itinerants, and to their wives respectively, was £3 each. With a few more extracts we conclude this lengthened notice of London Methodism, during the last seven years of Wesley’s life. “1784: November 7, a new pail, half a crown; December 6, chain for dog, two shillings. 1785: January 4, shaving the preachers, £2 10_s._ 6_d._; February 18, “news pappers,” 13_s._; May 18, lamplighter, four weeks, 6_s._; August 8, Mr. Tennant, to pay his debts, and to send him to Leeds, £9 9_s._; August 13, letters, four weeks, £2 15_s._ 8½_d._ August 19, for shaving the preachers at conference, £7 5_s._ 3_d._ 1787: February 2, two trees for front of dwelling house, 3_s._ 6_d._; December 17, for curtain over the altar, £5 1_s._ 9_d._ 1789: March 28, paid expenses of a hogshead of cider, from Guernsey, a present to Mr. Wesley, £1 9_s._; July 7, paid the man servant a quarter’s wages, £1 1_s._; December 29, paid Mr. Moore for cold bath, £1 1_s._ 1790: July 1, the hairdresser’s bill, £1 1_s._, for one quarter. 1791: February 22, paid the Rev. Mr. Wesley’s salary (the last he received) £15; April 20, paid for Rev. Mr. Wesley’s horses standing at livery after his decease, £1 11_s._ 9_d._; December 3, paid Mr. Judd’s bill for hanging the New Chapel with black superfine cloth, £41 16_s._”[271] These may seem little things to introduce into a work like this; but little things often indicate greater, and, sometimes, it is only by knowing minute matters that men can form a correct opinion of a great general system. After this long, but we hope not uninteresting digression, we must return to Wesley in 1776.
