Beloved Brother

Though I wrote to you a short time ago, I just send a line to say that I hear that C. E. Lawrence of Kamloops is likely to be turned aside by Upson. I do not know whether you have any influence with Lawrence, who was much esteemed here, but is isolated for a long time in Winchester, so that he did not see many. This T. Wells movement which is popish in assumption, seems to extinguish all christian affection & they have forced division in several places. But where the brethren have got free from it, there seems quite a reviving of spiritual energy & blessing. And I do trust that, through God's mercy, that may go on. The general state of things is low indeed, – but there is a desire with many of the young to walk so as to please God, & to read the Scripture. The want of conscience, & independence, ^{and spirit of slander,} shown by the T. W. partisans is terrible, especially D^r. Fosbery, who falsifies every fact either by what he states or omits, so as to give it a false colouring; & he quibbles over the word "fellowship" exactly as they did in T. Wells, so as to conceal their self will and unrighteousness. It is heart-rending to have to be occupied with these things; but I think the Lord is giving us deliverance, at all events in a measure.

Our much love in the Lord

Yours aff{ectionate}ly in Him

W. J. Lowe

I sent you the package of 18 "Letters" for Binding Lix & Lx together some short time ago.
