Scope and content
Writes that he is glad Glover has read his article on Morgan's book, which he holds in high regard. Sends a limerick about a lady who doesn't believe in the Trinity, 'le Pere, le Fils et le Pigeon'. Criticises Glover's present company, including John Mott and the Y.M.C.A. Argues that Glover's books, like Mott's speech on the outbreak of the First World War, distinguish Christianity from its practical application. Reminds Glover that his late son was a hero of the war, and visualises Divinity as Christ dying on the cross. Accuses Glover of ignoring the War, and the action he believes it necessitated.
