Handwritten letter from N.D. Pendleton to Bishop William F. Pendleton.
Pendleton has been thinking about a conversation he and W.F.P. had when W.F.P. was last in Pittsburgh. As a result of this conversation, Pendleton would like to use his allotted time at the upcoming Assembly to deliver a personal tribute to Bishop Benade. Pendleton feels this would accomplish their aim, and in addition, his planned paper on the Adversaria needs more time. He asks W.F.P. for his opinion on the matter....

Handwritten letter from N.D. Pendleton to Bishop William F. Pendleton.
Pendleton believes it would be best if W.F.P. gives someone else the topic assigned to him (Pendleton) for the London Assembly; Pendleton read a paper on the same subject just two years prior at the Glenview Assembly, and he feels he does not have anything significant to add at this time. However, he is currently preparing a new paper which he will present if W.F.P. would like. Pendleton agrees to go to London at the time...

Handwritten letter from N.D. Pendleton to Bishop William F. Pendleton. Circa 1904 CE.
Pendleton notifies W.F.P. that the paper he is writing for the Assembly is on the topic of Messianic prophecy. Pendleton discusses Alfred Stroh’s article on the relation of the sun to the “first element.” Before reading this article, Pendleton assumed Stroh’s views on this matter differed from his own. However, he now sees that they hold the same position. Beatrice is recovering nicely after the birth of...

Typed letter from N.D. Pendleton to Rev. Eldred Edward Iungerich in Pittsburgh, PA, USA.
Pendleton finds Iungerich’s comment about the length of the papers read aloud at the Assembly pertinent. Pendleton suggests they might try instituting a strict time limit, but he is doubtful about how well that will work. Pendleton hopes Iungerich’s letter to Mr. Pfeiffer will “call for a modest admission.” He states that the main issue the Church has with Pfeiffer is the tone of authenticity with which...
