Abstract
Two documents relating to John Tyler Ryland (1786–1841) have recently emerged that provide an interesting gloss to the exhaustive historical research on Ryland pro-vided by Roger Hayden (Baptist Quarterly 46.3 [2015], 120–27). An 1801 letter by a youthful Ryland to the prominent London Baptist minister, John Rippon, and a note from 1823 addressed to Rippon’s wife containing transcripts of three hymns by John Ryland, Jr. (1753–1825), J. T. Ryland’s father, reveal much about the younger Ryland’s efforts to achieve a serious education, his interest in local politics and legal matters, his involvement with the Baptist Academy, and his connections to his father’s world of hymn writing and ministers among the Particular Baptists.
