Dear Mrs. Eddy

We received your kind letterEditorial Note: See L03374 and are trying to profit by your instructions

I am now quite sure that some mesmerist is arguing to me in various ways, to thwart my progress in Christian Science, and now before I was quite aware of it I have a belief of sore eyes with a dimness of sight, - a belief that I never had before that I can remember, Is it possible that we are the direct objects of their torture? What else can it be. Such embarrassments are not pleasant but I will try to profit by them. For same reason we have not received the little pamphletEditorial Note: Possibly Historical Sketch of Metaphysical Healing that you mention in your letterEditorial Note: See L03374

Yours in Haste
Ira O. Knapp
