Who was Harry Morse ?

[Scott Pitta]

Charles Yadon published a book in 1952 called Jehovah Jesus.

On page 114, he lists and retranslates a handful of verses (Ep. 5:5, 2 These. 1:12, 1 Tim. 5:21, 2 Tim. 4:1, Titus 2:13, 2 Pet. 1:1 and Jude 4 as examples of the Granville Sharp rule.

He lists both the work penned by Granville and also the book "Greek Testament" by Bloomfield.

I wonder if this is the first mention of the Sharp Granville rule in Oneness literature ??

What was the impact of Jehovah Jesus on the Oneness movement ?

Yadon’s Book was actually almost a Word for word copy of an earlier book I can’t remember the guy’s name. Actually more Arian than Oneness.

Right. Yadon did not author the book, he added to it. Robert Weeks wrote it.

It was sold by by the UPC. But like other early books penned by Oneness writers, it did not stay in print. I'm not sure Urshans book on the Oneness or the Ewart title "Jesus: Man and Mystery" are in print any longer.

Not a criticism of any one. I just have trouble finding certain books.

I do have "Jehovah Jesus". But I don't remember using it in college.

I figured out a way to create a list of persons who Harry Morse performed marriages for. It requires I scroll page after page of public records, but it is paying off. So far I have found a dozen couples between 1916-1921 that he married.

Afterwards, I will track down each couple to see who they were. They might be members of the Big Downtown Mission, or they were students, or they were connected with Harry some other way.

This will take a while, but it is fresh data.

Today, I added material to my file on George Royal Farrow. For my interests, he was part of 1920's Apostolic central California. He does not seem to have left much of a paper trail.

Farrow was a Quaker before meeting Frank Ewart in 1914 Los Angeles. He pastored in Lodi and in Turlock and he retired in Texas.

I did manage to find 2 pictures of him. But I have never figured out how to post pictures here.

Was Lucy his wife?

Lucy F. Farrow of Azusa Street is different from "Lulu Farrow" the wife of George Farrow. The birth name of Lulu Farrow was Mina L Brumwell. They were married outside of Portland, Oregon in 1915.

Earnestly Contending for the Faith by Elder James Tyson came in the post today. But it had no useful data for my project.

9 early Pentecostals are given a one page bio followed by an article penned by the person in the bio.

Close, but no cigar.

The book will be tossed into the pile of early obscure books penned about Oneness Pentecostalism.
