I am sorry I missed seeing you before I returned home– Had I known that day, when you called on me at my office that I should not have the pleasure of seeing you I would have given up everything As Written: every thing in order to have met you– I worked the next day for an hour over my time -hoping you would call– I called on Mrs Eddy the same afternoon, she was very As Written: vey sorry to think I had missed seeing you– I tried in vain to find out the Hotel you were stopping at– Mrs Eddy tells me if I remember right, that you are willing to instruct me in regard to your method of healing, if so what will be the expense- Can you teach me by letter or should I have to go to Chicago–?

If you see fit to take me into your confidence I would cheerfully comply with all your requests– Please give this your earliest attention
