Scope and content
Clear reply to the substance: that “our attitude” was indeed different from that of the “old Goshen”, the separation between old and new Goshen [Goshen College] was “clear-cut”; on Brunk reference to a J S. Hartzler [Jonas S. Hartzler] that Bender did not know, Bender considered at least part of Brunk’s reference irrelevant; a bit of explanation about rumor of an anti-Brunk remark by Oyer, disagreement that Oyer treated dress [attire] question “lightly”; Burkhart’s explanation of a smile Brunk had thought derisive; etc.; remarks on Burkhart [Irvin E. Burkhart?] study of Menno Simons’ Christology; more defense against criticism of Goshen.
