In this journey he describes himself to have met with several, who were pleased with his visit but to have found difficulties with others, towards whom however he felt a sympathy and tenderness on account of their being entangled by the spirit of the world.
In the year 1759, he visited several of the Society who held slaves in Philadelphia.

In about three months afterwards, he travelled there again, in company with John Churchman, to see others under similar circumstances.
He then went to different places on the same errand.

In this last journey he went alone.

After this he joined himself to John Churchman again, but he confined his labours to his own province.

Here he had the pleasure of finding that the work prospered.
