John Wesley - 10 June, 1760, 01:00 PM

from The Journal of John Wesley, page 259:

At noon William Ley, Jaynes Glasbrook, and I rode to Carrick-upon-Shannon. In less than an hour, an esquire and justice of the peace came down with a drum and what mob he could gather. I went into the garden with the congregation, while he was making a speech to his followers in the street.
