#005 World Congress of Religious Bound Correspondence, p. 368
Tower Hill, Hillside, Wisconsin.
Rev. W.I. Nichols,
Philadelphia, Pa.
Dear Nichols:--
This notice will explain itself. We can hardly expect
to get you to Chicago. Send your suggestions. One of the
things which we will hope to develop probably will be a scheme
for a series of State or even more local Congresses which will,
after the spirit of the Chicago meeting, bring like minded people
of different names together. I am writing all our Directors.
Wright and Crowe have a feeling and hops that the next annual
meeting will be in New York City, and we in Chicago will be very
happy if we can further that scheme. I have written Bisbee and
Salter of Philadelphia, as I write you, wondering if that City of
Brotherly Love is not the place where, sometime during the next
winter, there may be held a Liberal Congress in truth and in deed,
a meeting of two-days, dignity, in which large and fundamental
questions will be considered, but the greater significance of which
will be in the truly representative character of those who take
part,- Jew, Gentile, Christian and Ethical Culture, noble preach-
ers, earnest laymen, laying aside the denominational anxieties
and sectarian itch to consider what can we do together for the re-
demption of Society. You are strong in Philadelphia. If Bisbee
and Salter and you, all Directors of the National Congress,
can see it possible to develop a scheme of this kind, you will
find the general officers very, very willing to help. If you
cannot come, let us hear from you.
Brotherly yours,
September 6, 1894.
