Scope and Content

Letter to B. J. Taylor from H. Pearson. "3'02 ev. 4th st Dayton, O July 15, 1899 My dear Bro Taylor I am in receipt of yours of the 12th just. It is quite refreshing to hear you are doing so well in Bible work- Sorry the 'clipping' escaped you before it was imprisoned in the envelope. 1. In reference to the collections: I took a collection of $13.10 cash and a subscription of $9.15 unpaid at the Presbyterian Church in Warren. I also took a collection in the Disciples Church, Cash $8.91, unpaid subs $3 40, with the promise in each case that probably the subscription would be forwarded to me. You society had no relation to these collections seeing they were taken by me. If the N.Y. Office should see fit to order these collections paid to your (page break) 2 Society that would be within their province but it is not within mine. If the bretheren will enclose with the money the receipts I gave them for the cash I received when there, I will return their receipts for the entire amount in each case, so that it may be more con- vinient (convenient) for them in making reports to the treasurers of their Presbetery Convention. 2. As to the canvas. I am very much pleased that you are about to make it, but I have no one to recommend. The distance is so great from here to Warren that transportation would be very costly. It also is best to secure a person well known locally. My recollections of my visits are very pleasant and I hope to see you all again, if not in deed quite often. Keep up the meetings Drop me a line as so progresses. Ever cordially yours Jno (John?) Pearson"
