ABSTRACT
In a 1774 letter published in Lloyd's Evening Post, previously unrecognized in Wesley Studies, John Wesley contested the use of the label ‘patriot’ in current political debate, particularly by those challenging the court of George III and pushing for abolition of constitutional monarchy—like John Wilkes and his followers. This article reproduces the letter, with an introduction and annotation.
