At Abingdon August 1746

We know from the diary of John Ryland that on one Sunday in August 1746 (7,14, 21 or 28) he preached for Beddome, while Beddome preached 30 miles east in Abingdon. This would be before Daniel Turner began his long ministry there, two years later.
Ryland's diary says

Mr Beddome at Abingdon
And Poor me to supply his Place here.
In the Morning my heart too dry and dull.
