I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. (1 Timothy 2:1-2). Letter by J.K Popham from the March 1936 Friendly Companion magazine, on the occasion of the death of King George V.
