Part of Papers of Terrot Reavely Glover
Manuscript letter, in which Glover thanks Carlile for his letter and for the notice of the book. He has read the article by the editor of 'Tablet' in today's edition of 'The Times', which shows Roman Catholic contempt for small Protestant groups and what is in store, no doubt, for Baptists under Mussolini. On the subject of the 'Red Indian Bible', this was the work of the much despised Independents and Puritans in New England. Glover thinks it may be the first translation of the Bible by Englishmen into a heathen language. He is busy working on two tracts of Tertullian for a Loeb Library volume. Anybody who thinks he knows Latin is welcome to translate De Spectaculis, Chapter 3 on his behalf. Tertullian's writing is powerful and packs a punch; when the volume is finally finished, he will send it to the 'Baptist Times'.
