Stevenson informs us that `In the preceding year, 1781, Mr Wesley sat again for his likeness. At Burslem, in Staffordshire, he found a young man named Enoch Wood, possessed of great natural skill in modelling from the life, pleased with his ability, Mr Wesley gave him five hourly sittings at different times. On the last occasion Joseph Bradfield was with him, and adjusted his best wig. Soon as the promised hour had expired Mr Wesley, who had been reading all the time, rose and stood behind the artist, to examine the work. "It is too gloomy for me," said Mr Wesley. "The fault is yours, sir." "How? how?" said Mr Wesley promptly. "Why sir, you would always sit reading. If you will give me your eye for five minutes, I can correct that fault." "You shall have it." With watch in hand, the five minutes were given: then, taking his place again behind the artist, he said approvingly, "If you touch it again you'll mar it".'" (p. 19, from Memorials of the Wesley family, p. 349).
