"From the year 1791 to 1794 he (Mather) was stationed at Hull and the three following years at Manchester and in the year 1797 at Leeds, I beg leave to observe, that in all those places there was a considerable revival of the work of God. Many persons in those Circuits were awakened and brought to the saving knowledge of God in a short time."
