ALS to J.C. Carlile

Manuscript letter, in which Glover sends an account of Douglas' visit. Douglas is in top form, does things his own way, as a man should. Glover listened to every word.

ALS to J.C. Carlile

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'.

ALS to J.C. Carlile

Manuscript letter, in which Glover writes that the notice on the second sheet can be reproduced in the 'Baptist Times' and gives all the necessary facts for the moment, namely that it has been stated inaccurately that Glover will succeed Professor B.W. Bacon in the New Testament Chair at Yale University. A proposal has been made to Glover, which he is considering, but he does not think that he will give up his domicile in England. He cannot thank Carlile for the rest of the letter in print, but he does value the wish Carlile and several others express that Glover does not go. He adds that the climate is horrible and that he is indoors, trying to avoid a cold.

ALS to J.C. Carlile

Manuscript letter, in which Glover asks Carlile whether he has received the Ancient History volume of plates from Cambridge University Press. If not, he suggests that Carlile ask them why not, since both he and Carlile have given them space and praise enough. Glover will write something on Eusebius; he read the Loeb volume while he was in the States.
