Submission 63169adf2e68c

Copy of letter addressed from Elkridge MD to Paul Limbert, 21 Claremont Avenue, New York City, January 4, 1936, with seven typed pages, plus a single page entitled, WHAT DYNAMIC RELIGION MEANS TO ME, dated the following month, February 1936. The single page, judging from date and content, evidently was a condensation of the seven pages, which according to Heath’s penciled notation on an envelope, were the original version of what later came to be called THE INSPIRATION OF BEAUTY, published in booklet form (Item 2022).

Typescript heavily amended in pencil by Heath so that it was difficult to transcribe. Consequently this transcription does not contain all of the material that is in the original. An abbreviated essay was started from this by Spencer MacCallum, titled by him “The Historical Jesus’ Earthly Vision” (working draft Item 2044a), deleting the discussion of contemporary Christian Left and Right. This abbreviated essay MacCallum intended to use in a book-in-process based on Heath’s Chapman College talks, Economics and the Spiritual Life of Free Men. Item 2044 has a close relation to three items discovered subsequently — 2163, 2251 and 2278. The order of the writing can only be determined by close study, but 2251 may be the most developed of the three. Item 2278 has an intriguing one-page preface, suggesting Heath may have been planning another book. These presumably date from the early 1950s because of reference to an article in The Freeman, which magazine started in 1950, and the fact that MacCallum, who joined Heath in 1954, does not recall Heath working on it.

The Romance Of Realty

A popularizing story which Heath paid to have written for a chapter in his then forthcoming volume, Citadel, Market and Altar. But he was disappointed in the result and did not use it. The latter part, however, shows much of Heath’s own hand.

Photocopy (next Item same number 2042) of an Easter song, “’Twas a Bluebird Told the Story,” from the hymnal used at the Unitarian Church Sunday School in Baltimore where Heath’s three daughters attended as girls. Daughter Beatrice told Spencer MacCallum on April 28, 1993 that Heath loved this hymn and would play it joyously, trilling up the piano. A Book of Song and Service (Boston, Unitarian Sunday-School Society, 1902).
