Bender to Noah E. Byers

"Not an 'open' letter," objecting rather vehemently to Dean N. E. Byers [Noah E. Byers] of Bluffton for a Byers statement in Christian Exponent saying John Horsch was not promulgating nonresistance. Of course Horsch was Bender's father-in-law, but the tensions related to the Exponent are probably more important. (Bender pointed to a key writing in German by Horsch and sent carbons to Horsch and to Lester Hostetler; Byers replied, and the two letters show the tensions of the day).

Byers, Noah Ebersole, 1873-1962
