Mr and Mrs E T Hall read an account of the Faith in The Christian Commonwealth written by Wesley Tudor Pole and wrote to him asking for further information. Pole passed the letter on to Ethel Rosenberg who sent a package of Bahá'í literature to the Halls who became interested and shared it with their relatives, the John Cravens. The Halls wanted to know if there were any other Bahá'ís in Manchester and were told of Sarah Ann Ridgeway who had become a Bahá'í in America and had returned to England in about 1904 or 1905. The Halls, the Cravens and Sarah Ann Ridgeway had a visit from Ethel Rosenberg who deepened them in the Faith. [SAR90; EJR118-121]
