BROOKLYN, N.Y., MARCH 3RD, 1932

Mr. F. Ide.

Beloved Brother, — I am very glad to have yours of the 18th inst. and I write at once to say that it will be quite unnecessary for you to take your car to Ireland. Our thought is to visit Dublin only in the Free State and it will be cheaper to go by train than to ferry your car from Liverpool to Belfast. After Dublin — which would be the week after Easter — we think of Scotland. We should cross from Belfast, after Dublin.

We shall be looking forward to seeing Mrs. Ide and you at Belfast and we are glad you hope to be there. Mr. Williams writes that they may attend the Birmingham Conference also. I hope they will.

We purpose to sail by the Cameronia on the 12th inst. — we land at Belfast, which is very suitable, arriving there probably on the 20th, Lord’s Day. I shall have business to attend to that week.

I note your remarks as to sonship and I trust the special meetings held have been supported of the Lord. I have heard of such meetings as profitable in many places. If the Lord is calling attention specially to Himself in this respect it is important that the saints should know. The truth as to His Person is very poorly understood. I have, at the request of the brethren, written a paper as to the hymn book and also a letter in answer to Mr. W———’s naughty paper. Some on your side are carefully going over these, and I believe the Lord is making the truth clearer. All do not see eye to eye, as new features have come up, but ground is being gained.

There is much cheer here — another meeting is under contemplation, our meeting dividing. I am assured the Lord will bless this movement — and a remarkable interest has sprung up in the New Jersey area.

My wife unites in love in Christ to you all.

Affectionately in Him,

James Taylor.
