ON BOARD S.S. ADRIATIC, OCTOBER 31ST, 1931

Mr. P. Lyon.

Beloved Brother, — We have been thinking much all the week of the meeting with the Forest Hill brothers and we earnestly look for a good result.

We are thinking of you too in view of Valence, also Mr. House.

I was thankful indeed to receive your note on the steamer. We both wish to thank your dear sister and you again for all your kindness to us. You will be much in our thoughts and prayers.

I am thinking much of the new Depot. I am assured that Mr. J——— will be helped of God in its management. I hope A.E.M. will, as the hymn-book is completed, draw out, as I urged him. The work is that of Gershon or Merari and is not suitable for him.

The news from America is fairly good, save that Chicago proposes to have special meetings again this winter, notwithstanding the widespread feeling or knowledge of wrong conduct and principles remaining unjudged. I understand A.M.H. suggested to them to invite me, evidently being ^[p. 331] unaware of underlying conditions. In his letter to me A.M.H. attacks H——— as if he could inform me about him. The enemy would make H——— an issue so as to divert from conditions in Chicago.

We have had an excellent voyage, thank God, and we both have been well, save that my wife has suffered from earache. I am gaining strength steadily, thank God.

Our united love in Christ to you all,

Affectionately in Him,

James Taylor.
