I think "one of the friends", is an interesting phrase that at least in english has a very specific meaning.
"The friends", being a term for your fellow worshipers is the main definition, but it also seems to carry with it the added value of being a "serious" JW.
I would add that one.
I remember as well the PURE LANGUAGE district convention. Many WT articles followed with that same phrase. It seems to have vanished.

Whenever I heard the word COLPORTEUR I always thought of the song, BEGIN THE BEGUINE.
