BROOKLYN, N.Y., JANUARY 20TH, 1928

Mr. P. Lyon.

Beloved Brother, — Your letter is just to hand and I am glad to have it and all the news it contains of the Lord’s work and interests on your side of the Atlantic.

I need not say that I am very interested in all you mention. I shall indeed be glad if you go to the West Indies, for the need is great. There is a wide open door here also and I believe you would find much cheer among the brethren. The interest in this district is perhaps greater than I have seen it — thank God! Of course you need not take our movements into account. We have decided nothing yet, but we have the end of March before us in view of Easter.

Thus if you go to Barbados and Jamaica you would have sufficient time to give the dear ones in both islands a good turn and then make for New York.

Of course we should miss you greatly when in England, but the Lord’s interests have to be considered and not us. It is likely we shall go to Germany, possibly at Whitsuntide.

The news of Glasgow interests me greatly — I am glad you were there for the meetings at New Year time. Poor ——— were he at all with God how quickly adjustment would come! He is not standing on the “sea of glass”.

My wife joins in warm love to Mrs. Lyon and your sister, also yourself — and Lois. We shall gladly accept your hospitality — thank you for your kind invitation.

In haste, affectionately,

James Taylor.
