Moral Man and Immoral Society: Rediscovering Reinhold Niebuhr

Correspondence with Bishop Will Scarlett



Union Theological Seminary
Broadway at 120th Street
New York

June 14, 1954

Dear Will:
I hope you won't laugh or be amused or be
angry if I tell you that I am dedicating my new book
"Beyond Tragedy" to you and Sherwood Eddy. I know
you are strange bedfellows, and yet in a sense not
so strange. I wouldn't tell you anything about this
except for the fact that I am puzzled about whether
I should say simply William Scarlett, or Bishop William
Scarlett. If you can give me your advice on this mat-
ter I would greatly appreciate it.

We are once more back at the old grind after
a very lovely summer. Ursula and I greatly appreciated
your letters and we hope we will have a chance to see
you soon.

Affectionately,
Reinie
