BROOKLYN, N.Y., MAY 16TH, 1941

Mr. L. E. Samuels.

Beloved Brother, — I send a line to say that I hope to leave New York by train at 4.30 p.m., daylight saving time, Tuesday, 20th inst., reaching Chicago at 7.40 a.m., Wednesday, leaving St. Paul, 7.45, Gt. Northern, arriving Winnipeg 8.45 a.m., Thursday. My wife is not going.

My thought is to leave Winnipeg, God willing, on Monday, 26th, at 6.35 p.m. I wish to obtain as much rest as possible at Rochester before the meetings there. I am not taking on any meetings en route either way — on account of two heavy meetings within ten days.

I trust Mrs. Samuels and you all keep well, and, through God’s mercy, that your arm is quite better.

My wife and I spent last Saturday and Lord’s Day at ^[p. 224] Manchester where the Lord gave us all a good season. There is a very good interest in these parts.

Tidings from our beloved brethren in Great Britain arrive steadily and are most cheering. My sister in Belfast and her three families there are unhurt, also her other family at Coventry. All this causes thanksgiving to God.

I had a bad turn, caused, I believe, by poisoning of some kind, this week, but I am better, thank God.

My wife unites in love in Christ to you all.

Affectionately in Him,
James Taylor.
