LETTERS

The following two letters addressed to Mr.J.McKillop are additional to those in the bound volumes of Mr Taylor's letters.

Beloved Brother,

I am very appreciative of the gift, $25, from the dear brethren in Chicago enclosed in yours of the 4th inst. Having considered me in this way liberally in December, your bounty now is the more valuable. I always seek to regard the gifts of the saints unselfishly, avoiding to think of oneself as the terminus, but looking at them as a circulatory matter. The saints – givers and receivers – are thus brought together in a practical way – love expressing itself. You will, I am sure, convey my thanks to the brethren.

I am thankful Mrs....... is somewhat better and we trust she will steadily improve through the mercy of God.

The report of your visit to Des Moines is cheering. I heard of it also from Mr ….. I trust the Lord will bless in serving His people thus.

I should like to see the brethren at Des Moines en route to Winnipeg but I had to say to them that time and strength would prevent this – as I am to attend the meetings at Rochester a few days after Winnipeg. I hope to see you at Chicago however.

We hear that...... and...... are in Miami.

My wife unites in love in Christ to you and to the saints.

Affectionately in Him

JAMES TAYLOR
