Received by James Padgett.
Washington D.C.
I am here, your old partner.
You had a letter from Garfield. He
was so anxious to write that I thought it would do no harm to let
him try; and I am glad that I did, for what you said to him has
impressed him very much, and, I believe, will lead to his seeking
information on the subject of the New Birth. He is a wonderful spirit
intellectually, and has progressed to a very great degree in the
investigation of spiritual laws. So that on the whole his writing
will do no harm to our band.
Well, I do not understand it, as he was a Christian on earth, and
one would naturally suppose that he would have made inquiry for
Jesus when he came over. But it seems he did not, why I don't know;
but now that he realizes what you told him, he undoubtedly will
seek the Master at the first opportunity. I shall endeavor to show
him the way with all my heart and ability. Yes, I will soon. I am
very happy and am progressing rapidly, and expect to soon be in
the Fifth (Spirit) Sphere, where your father and Prof. Salyards
are. Oh, my dear Padgett, I cannot tell you what happiness I am
now enjoying. Well, I must stop.
Mrs. Riddle and Bert are advancing some, but they do not seem to
get the light as rapidly as I hoped they would. But they pray, and,
I think, are commencing to realize that God's love is waiting for
them.
So with all my love, and many wishes for your
happiness and success, I am
Your old partner and spirit brother,
A. G. Riddle
