The GOSPEL TRUTH
LETTER OF

CHARLES G. FINNEY

1860

To John Moody

14 April 1860

 

[MS in Finney Papers, Supplement # 80]

 

Houghton. 14th April. 1860.

My Dear Br. Moody.

Yours of the 9th came duly.

We are getting a little rested I hope.

We expect. D.V. to return to Manchester

on Wed. next. To commence labor there

on Sab. the 22d. Our labors there are to be

in connexion with the Independents.

We have not heard from Oshkosh since I wrote

you. Why did Mr. Emmerson get your agent

to bid in that Mill? Was it to make a

business for him? Did the agent bid it in

without any order from you to do so? If so

he is a singular agent. The state of things

at Bolton remains highly interesting.

I do not yet see my way very clear to return to

America. May do so in a few weeks. Where

do you purpose to go. Please keep us posted

in regard to your designs in this regard.

Mrs. F. is better. Since writing the above I have recd

yours of the 13th A letter directed to Manchester

P.O. will reach us after Wednesday of next week.

You will see us of course on your way to Liverpool.

When you come you will find us D.V. at

Mrs. Dr. Patricks. Dr. Hayles name on the door.

 

[page 2]

Dr. Hughes, Chatham St. Picadilly. Manchester.

When you come please let us know that we

may be at our lodgings.

Your Br.

C. G. Finney.
