Bro Frederick Hammond.
Nice to hear from you, as always. Thanks for the
book, ‘Legalism and Faith’; it’s a beautiful book, very enlightening,
showing me some greater spiritual heights I have to try to reach. I
have been keeping Okay. I had the pleasure during the past month of
visits from four brethren from Canada and a Christadelphian couple from
Tobago. I hope that the case on our behalf will begin soon, God
willing, so that, hopefully, in the near future I will be off death
row.
