Letter from N.D. Pendleton to Rev. Fred E. Waelchli in Wyoming, Ohio, USA. Although Waelchli’s letter arrived last, Pendleton is choosing to answer it first as all the other letters he has received ask for funds from the already extended Extension Fund. Pendleton thinks Los Angeles is “a great center of human life” and hopes the Church will hold on to its foothold there. He thinks Waelchli’s proposed visit in the Fall should help “brace the situation.” There are several theological candidates who might soon be ready to take on the job of society-building in Los Angeles. Pendleton will speak to them this term about the importance of society-building and note any interest taken in the subject. Pendleton has been informed of the death of Waelchli’s daughter, Provida, and he asks Waelchli to pass along his sympathies to Alena. Names mentioned: Mr. (Cornelius Peter) Unruh, Provida (Waelchli Hilldale), Alena (Hughes Waelchli)
