| Editorial Title: | Emily M. Meader to Mary Baker Eddy, December 16, 1881 |
| Author: | Emily M. Meader |
| Recipient: | Mary Baker Eddy |
| Date: | December 16, 1881 |
Manuscript Description: Handwritten by Emily M. Meader on embossed lined paper from East Somerville, Massachusetts.
Editorial Note: Meader is grateful for the wonderful views of Life that Mary Baker Eddy's book, Science and Health, has brought to her. She had never seen Eddy until hearing her speak at Clara E. Choate's rooms in Boston, and had only recently learned of Science and Health, but she hopes to have a personal interview with Eddy. She has been an invalid for
fourteen years, under the care of skillful physicians. She'd reached a dark place
in her life and had no hope of regaining health when Science and Health was placed in her hands. The truth it contains came to her with such force that she
was almost overwhelmed. She sent for Clara E. Choate, and under Choate's care she
is being restored to health. She writes that she has many questions she would like
to ask Eddy and also many moments of doubt. Yet she still feels that she is being
resurrected in body and mind. She says that she would come to an interview with Eddy
in a spirit of reverence, as she values Science and Health right alongside her Bible. She predicts that it will shine brighter and brighter
with the passage of years. She closes by asking if there's a day and time when she
could call on Eddy at her home in Lynn and expressing her hopes for a bright future.
