| Abstract | Thos. M. Taylor letter to Justin Perkins in which Taylor responds to a letter from Perkins. He writes about a prior donation and new donation (from Zion Church) for Perkins' mission. Taylor shares that they have much good being done there by means of Bible reading and women of the lowest orders going forth and telling of Jesus, whom they themselves have found. He also writes regarding the influence of the "missing link" of England (The Missing Link, or Bible Women in the Homes of the London Poor). He shares his own impression of the book and the effort it describes. He notes a visit from Mr. Harmond, additions to the churches there, and a visit from Dr. Wright. In closing, he remarks on Perkins' solitary return to Persia. |
