20 INDIA STREET, GLASGOW, 23rd January 1892
MY DEAR
FELLOW-PILGRIM,
—Very many thanks for your Visit to
Palestine. It is a capital book for the young, and reading your narrative
is just like taking a walk with you and hearing you all the time calling our
attention to sights and scenes... . We must have a talk about all these things.
I am not at all pleased at your expressing doubt as to 'Lazarus' Tomb!' I went
down into it, and thought it so grand to stand on Resurrection ground. And now
you are robbing me of that delight. 'Thy Land, O Immanuel !' No wonder we feel
it to be sacred. Again sending you my warmest thanks, believe me, your brother
and companion in tribulation; and in the kingdom and patience of Christ,
ANDREW A. BONAR.
