Abstract
By the end of 1739 Susanna Wesley had moved into what was to be her final home, her son John’s newly acquired and renovated Methodist headquarters, the Foundery. There her last four extant letters (and doubtless a number of others that haven’t survived) were written. Not always in the best of health, Susanna never the less continued to be a lively correspondent. To the familiar themes of her sons’ work and her own spiritual and temporal condition are added here a hint of her role in the community at the Foundery and a unique perspective on her personality in a letter to the countess of Huntingdon.

Abstract
By the end of 1739 Susanna Wesley had moved into what was to be her final home, her son John’s newly acquired and renovated Methodist headquarters, the Foundery.
There her last four extant letters (and doubtless a number of others that haven’t survived) were written.
Not always in the best of health, Susanna never the less continued to be a lively correspondent.
To the familiar themes of her sons’ work and her own spiritual and temporal condition are added here a hint of her role in the community at the Foundery and a unique perspective on her personality in a letter to the countess of Huntingdon.
