This led to a first collection being made in 1746 'towards a lending stock for the poor.' No more than £1 was lent at once, and this modest capital had to be repaid in instal- ments of about eighteenpence a week. Nothing more emphatically testifies to the hard lot of a 141 WESLEY AND HIS PREACHERS main part of the people than the record of this Fund in the days of George ll. Starting with a capital of £^0, i6s., as many as two hundred and fifteen persons received loans in the course of about a ...year and a half. Certain of the humble borrowers rose to good positions as tradespeople, and such would nowadays strike one as being remarkable examples of thrift, honesty, and per- severance. We need not wonder that the enter- prise was heartily encouraged by persons outside of the Methodist Society — *Dr. W., hearing of this design, sent a guinea towards it; as did an eminent Deist the next morning.' The truth is, that the poverty to which many Christian people were reduced was very severe, for what might have been seen * in Bethnal Green hamlet' in 1777 very closely corresponded with what might be witnessed there to-day.
