ALS to J.C. Carlile

Manuscript letter, sent from San Francisco, in which Glover writes that he will leave Berkeley to travel east on the 3rd December. If Carlile intends to write to him, he should send any letters to Cambridge, Mass., c/o Professor J.H. Beale, or else to Glover's Canadian address if posted after 20th December. Glover hopes that there will be no difficulty in reaching Brighton on 7th January, but if there is any delay, will Carlile facilitate postponing the Lambeth discussions until Glover arrives? Glover has tried to tell Carlile how sick the whole thing makes him; he doesn't think Carlile realises what a shindig they are in for at Cardiff. They have all got it into their heads that Glover likes fighting, when he doesn't. Glover does not want a row, yet a row there will be. J.H.S. doesn't realise how people feel about his abandonment of his original Baptist ideas. The best thing Carlile can do is to get Shakespeare to accept a pension. Glover will approve its being a generous one. Carlile can do this because he is on good terms with J.H.S. Glover hates the toadying, cadging atmosphere of the Church House! But nobody can help their case as much as Carlile can.

ALS to J.C. Carlile

Manuscript letter, in which Glover thanks Carlile for sending a copy of Inge's canticle to him (Sir William Ralph Inge, 1860-1954). Also discusses what should be done about J.A.S. It is clear from the Geoffrey episode that his family do not think he should return and a resolution that he should return may thwart their wishes. Though Glover does not like the man's policies, he does not want to see disaster for him. He encourages Carlile to be wise on Tuesday and not open the door for fresh trouble.

ALS to J.C. Carlile

Maunscript letter, in which Glover thanks Carlile for the cheque that he sent in recompense for the article, but returns the cheque on the basis that he did not expect to receive anything. They may consider his article part of the main job. He also returns a typescript letter written by his father [dated 20th February 1906], concerning a book on the Baptists.

ALS to J.C. Carlile

Manuscript letter, in which Glover thanks Carlile for the books. Several have been used or consulted. He writes from Sheringham in Norfolk, where he has had to preach sermons to the United Methodists and Primitives. Glover likes serving these people - old men whom he knew in 1903 are still there. His entire family is in Norfolk with him.

ALS to J.C. Carlile

Manuscript letter, in which Glover writes to Carlile with a list of "roughly 1001 things". Encourages Carlile to give generous praise to T.H. Robinson, D.D. of Aberdeen. Though Robinson wasn't promising as an undergraduate, he has grown and developed greatly; Glover requests that Carlile do justly for him. Concerning Ben Greenwood, Glover doesn't often agree with him, but on this occasion, he does - and against Charles Brown as well. Glover is not doing any work at the moment and cannot bring himself to plan twelve future articles just yet. He found preaching at the United Methodist Church more tiring than expected and is still undecided about Yale, though Mary says that he shouldn't make a decision until he is fitter. She is sitting with Glover as he writes and asks to tell Carlile that she has returned the book that he sent to her for review.
