Christadelphian Copyright

In “Christadelphian Answers” (p. 259) one of our veterans, Brothers G. F. Lake, set forth the view that no one can has any moral right to set up a claim of copyright in the expression of Divine Truths Christadelphian Treasury page 255 F. G. Jannaway

it was farthest from his mind (bro. Roberts) to claim any copyright or vested interests in his expression of the truth or to put any veto on the reproduction or circulation by any brother of what he had been privileged by God to publish F. G. Jannaway Christadelphian Treasury page 256

in keeping with that mind "The Christadelphian" has been equally free in the use of other brethren's labours....reprinting thousands of pamphlets without asking the consent of either the Author or his heirs. Hence in more senses than one the real "Christadelphian" policy has been to ignore vested interests in Christadelphian writings and simply be concerned like bro Roberts in the circulation of momentous truth F. G. Jannaway Christadelphian Treasury page 257
