BROOKLYN, N.Y., OCTOBER 21ST, 1938

Mr. Ernest Pittman.

Beloved Brother, — Many thanks for your letter, also for the notes of the Highland Park meetings.

I am very appreciative of the excellent work of our dear sisters expended on these notes. It is a valuable service to the Lord and His people and I am assured He will bless them in it. My prayers shall be for them.

I am sending under separate cover readings 1 and 2. I have looked over these and believe they can be safely circulated as ‘unrevised’. I hope to send the remaining three soon.

When you have made copies perhaps you will send these all five, original copies back to me. I shall then, God willing, prepare them for publication. I should start on them at once, only I am working on notes of recent meetings in England.

Brethren from these parts returning from Toronto speak favourably of the meetings there. It seems, however, that things were said which tend to weaken the position gained through recent exercises. I observe this in some who had not helped in these exercises. Paul confirmed the assemblies.

The Lord is helping us in the truth, and the more spiritual the things pressed upon us the more He looks for a response in separation and holiness. Any reactionary tendencies — strengthening the hands of those who would take a lower line — and these are never, alas! wanting — are to be deplored.

^[p. 136] Our brother and sister Mr. and Mrs. Collie-Smith will be with you all this weekend and I trust the Lord will give cheer.

My wife unites in love to you and your family,

Affectionately in Him,
James Taylor.

Our brother, Mr. H. P. Wells, will, God willing, be with us next week.
