Pendleton is returning the enclosed papers to W.F.P.. Of Miss Beekman’s work, Pendleton writes, “Miss Beekman brings to the consideration of the subject - not to mention many things characteristic of her unusual enlightenment - an entirely new view of the ‘Holy Spirit which came upon Mary.’ I had always taken for granted that the Holy Spirit thus spoken of was the Jehovah seed - the ultimate Truth from thereof, by which...

Pendleton invites W.F.P. to stay with his family during the Pittsburgh Assembly. He did not extend this offer earlier because he assumed W.F.P. would stay with Luelle. However, Luelle and her husband Bob have just bought an unfinished home on Heron Hill, and they will be staying either in Bryn Athyn or Glenview while they wait for it to be completed.

Pendleton is planning a trip south, and he hopes W.F.P. will take his place in Pittsburgh until he returns. In case W.F.P. cannot stay the entire time, Pendleton suggests Mr. Acton or Homer (Synnestvedt). Pendleton reports that there is opposition in the Pittsburgh society to the cost of the addition they are planning to the present Church building. However, more adequate accommodations are needed, and the majority is in...

Handwritten letter from N.D. Pendleton to Bishop William F. Pendleton.
Pendleton met with his committee last night about a potential trip south. The committee was unanimously against it. They feel he has been absent too much over the past year with his regular trips to Erie, and this has been “injurious” to the Society. Pendleton states, “I left the meeting feeling that there was nothing to do but to give up the Erie work, and I place my resignation in your hands in the hope that you will be...

Handwritten letter from N.D. Pendleton to Bishop William F. Pendleton.
Pendleton will read aloud W.F.P.’s most recent letter at the next Committee meeting as presenting W.F.P.’s position may “bring about a change of sentiment.” At their last meeting, the Committee was unanimously against Pendleton leaving the pulpit for a southern trip. However, they did not take an official “vote of refusal.” Despite an especially “affectionate response to spiritual instruction” over the past year,...

Handwritten letter from N.D. Pendleton to Bishop William F. Pendleton.
Pendleton read W.F.P.’s last letter aloud at the last Committee meeting. The members were asked whether they approved of Pendleton’s resignation from his work with the Erie Circle and what they thought of his proposed trip South. The general consensus was that they did not mind Pendleton leaving for special services on occasion, but they were unhappy with him leaving regularly for Erie because of the effect of his absence...

Pendleton has been waiting for a response from W.F.P. to his last letter. He does not know if, under the circumstances, it will be wise to carry out his trip South as planned. However, Mrs. Lindsay seems happy with her decision to pull her children out of the Church school, and now the tension has been somewhat eased. Pendleton writes, “I want to do the right thing, but it has been difficult to see clearly.”
