By Robert Roberts
The brethren and sisters assembled at Sutton Park, where they spent a season in Scripture reading and conversation in quiet seclusion. While so engaged, a number of those separated from us on the question of inspiration assembled on the other side of the little valley and sang "Brethren, let us walk together." It was very pretty, but misplaced. If there had been music for the Scripture words "How can two walk together except they be agreed?" we might have responded. Any other response would have been unsuitable, so we remained silent. Union has to be spiritual before it can be social.
-- R. Roberts, July, 1890
