Dutch immigrants once held fervent beliefs: Premillennialism spread at the end of the nineteenth century, Zionism soon became influential,
 and the Fundamentalist movement began around 1914. Then over one hundred years ago the Great War changed everything ...
The one hundredth year anniversary of Rev. Fles passing into glory was March 29, 2021.  Myself. 

 The "Lord's Garden" web page  has an 1894 quote from Rev. Fles.
 Rev. J. I. Fles biography - the longer version had end notes.  The last link in it mentions a Zeeland RCA church. Now I'm finished adding more.
 This time I mean it (unless something big happens)!
 The same longer version but try saving word as html page.  Try to possibly catch within archive.org and store that saved result for later access via wayback machine?
 The same longer version in a pdf.  If your device doesn't have Word, it might not show the many end notes.
 The published version of his story.  The article in CRC history magazine has other pictures. Not available now.
 His story in a single page.  Here is a nice way to get a brief impression; wordcloud.  Here is another new one.
 A story about Rev. John Rottenberg.  I hope the short format is suitable for "this hero who gave up his life
                                                             for the sake of bringing the gospel to the Jewish people." (per Glaser)
 The same Rottenberg story, as a pdf.  A good format.
