Wood, Esq. — First Sermon at Leeds. Armley House, Leeds : April 19, 1837. My clearest Friend, — I send a line because I know that you and your lady will wish to hear of us. Most calamitously, I was so hoarse on Sunday that, though surrounded by an immense mob, I could not do more than whisper my sermon. To my annoyance, "iiowever, there were reporters present from the three newspapers, 1 837 Letters, March to April 1%-^^"]. 219 and I was strongly urged to print my sermon by Mr. Hall, on behalf ...of the trustees. As I had not the remotest idea of printing it when I wrote it, this is a bore ; but as it will most likely be mis- represented in the newspapers, I thought I had better send it to the press, which I have accordingly done. After so much success and flattery, I look upon this failure (for a complete failure it was) as a merciful Providence ; it is a warning to me not to be too con- fident in myself ; it tells ine on whose strength I must wholly and solely rely. I am happy to say that I did not feel any annoyance whatever from such feelings as might arise from mortified vanity ; I have regarded the failure as a mercy, and not been annoyed at it the least, except so far as I failed in my wish to let my mode of conduct be known.
