Scope and Contents

Typed letter from N.D. Pendleton to Rev. Robert J. Tilson in London, England. Pendleton has received Tilson’s letter of April 10th. Pendleton was pleased to receive the record card informing him of Henderson’s ordination into the second degree. He thinks Tilson has saved “some trouble and no little expense” by ordaining him before he departed for Sydney. After the death of Alvin Lindrooth, Henry Heinrichs feels it is time to give up the Church’s work in Denver. Pendleton is sorry for the state of the Church in Denver. He writes, “It was once a fairly prosperous center, but time has gradually worn it down, so that now only a very small remnant is left. In the earlier days a split occurred there along the usual lines. Convention has done little or nothing there for many years. We have held on up to the present time, but it looks like the end now, unless something like a miracle happens.” Names mentioned: Mr. (William Cairns) Henderson, Alvin Lindrooth, Henry Heinrichs
