I shall enjoy the precious gratification of seeing you and your
Delegates in your proper places at the regular triennial meeting;
and I pray that the Divine Redeemer Who is the Prince of Peace, may
prosper our Convention with the Holy Spirit of consolation and
fraternal love, and consecrate out work with his effectual blessing
of Almightly God, I remain, in the bonds of Christian affection,

Your faithful friend and brother,
JOHN HENRY HOPKINS,
Presiding Bishop.

To the Right Reverend
