Messrs. Clowes and King were appointed to preach at Tunstall, on behalf of a new chapel there, the first having become too small. Mr Clowes the in the afternoon of Sunday, May 6th, ''and in the middle of my discourse," he says, "the work broke out The cries of penitents and the rejoicings of believers were so great that I desisted discoursing, and we carried on a mighty praying service till six o'clock, and it was supposed that twenty souls found pardoning mercy through the blood of the Lamb. At night Brother King preached, and the converting work still went forward."
