<p>My Dear Miss Miller:</p>

<p>You were very thoughtful to send Mrs. Jordon and myself tickets for last-night&apos;s lecture.  I attended and was entertained and instructed.  Mr. Robertson is certainly a skillful and ready debater, and the &ldquo;Gentiles&rdquo; are under obligations to you for an hour&apos;s stimulating discussion.  I wish that more speakers would be as judicial and dispassionate.</p>

<p>Sometime when we meet, I am sure we

<p>What tremendous conclusions are involved in adopting that as a premise.</p>

<p>Yours sincerely<lb>
W. H. Jordon</p>
