Dear Miss Phillips,
So many thanks for you kind letter. I shall be looking forward to my visit to Aberdeen and to other places in Scotland. I am delighted to accept Mr Webster's most kind offer to give me his pulpit on Sunday 26th of January. I should like to speak at the evening service. What a splendid champion for righteousness and justice he is. I think he played a most manly part at the meeting the other day. Shall be very glad to hear from you again about arrangements.
Very Cordial Greeting
Yours sincerely,
Emmeline Pethick Lawrence
