BostonEditorial Note: Boston, Massachusetts May 26 - 85
Dear Teacher,

Your postalEditorial Note: See L02532 at hand and I am exceeding sorry that my first literary effortEditorial Note: This a reference to a pamphlet by Clara Choate titled, The unfolding; or, mind understood the healing power. It was apparently the published text of an invited talk given by Choate before the American Legion of Honor, in Tremont Hall, Roxbury, Massachusetts, on March 12, 1885. should cause me such displeasure, I will forward you another lecture and will you please mark such places as you deem are quoted from your work.

Nothing will give me greater pleasure than to right a wrong and if I have seemed to borrow it was an error of the head and not of the heart for I never deny you as my teacher of Metaphysics or Christian Science and if I speak, teach, or write I expect to teach, speak, and write as I was taught and you of all others know I was not a dull scholar.

I do not claim the idea of healing with mind as originating with me and in whatever position I am in this work I represent you and your teachings and be assured I am no disgrace to you or them. I am ready to rectify anything wrong in my pamphlet.

Now that I am writing I would like to say that I most truly forgive all the unkind things said and done by those about you and I am sure that God will speak sometime and He will be heard.

It is the effort of my life to “Do as I would be done by”Matt 7:12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. Luke 6:31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.

Your Loving Student
