This continues from the previous Part 2 which presented download links to the entire series of the periodical journal Der Lutheraner. In this post, I am providing the links to the scanned copies and a few transcriptions of most of the convention essays that C.F.W. Walther and Franz Pieper presented to the old (German) Missouri Synod and the Synodical Conference. There are also two by F. Bente and one by George Mezger. Although many of these essays have been translated and published by Concordia Publishing House (CPH), yet the largest books of translations of Walther's essays, Essays For The Church, are currently unavailable. They are promised to be made available again in the future. Used copies may be available on Amazon or elsewhere.
In a previous post over a year ago, I published a spreadsheet of most of the Convention Essays of the old Missouri Synod and Synodical Conference. That spreadsheet will be of great value for reference in sorting through all of these wonderful essays. It especially indicates where English translations might be available.
The file names should be fairly self-evident: Year-District-Author-Title.PDF or DOC
Most files are PDF scans of the original German. Sprinkled throughout are a few DOC files of the German text which I was able to transcribe. These make it quite easy to copy text into Google Translate for a quick view. [August 2015- but see the many added links to OCR text of original German]
