I will tell you all the particulars when I see you. I have had some splendid, demonstrations. The Lord is blessing me wonderfully, and praise be to His name.
You remember the, conversation I had with you about my lecture I am preparing, and enclosed you will find some questions, which, if you have no objections, I would like to have you answer.
