| Editorial Title: | John M. C. Murphy to Mary Baker Eddy, October 17, 1883 |
| Author: | John M. C. Murphy |
| Recipient: | Mary Baker Eddy |
| Date: | October 17, 1883 |
Manuscript Description: Handwritten by John M. C. Murphy on lined printed stationery of J. M. C. Murphy, Hatter
and Gents' Furnisher, from East Boston, Massachusetts.
Editorial Note: Murphy is replying to a letter (not extant) written by Mary Baker Eddy on October
12, 1883. He tells her he has been so busy in his store that he has not had time to
attend meetings of the Christian Scientist Association. He tells of giving Christian Science treatment through prayer to a woman who has
had enlarged glands in her neck for over 25 years. Through Murphy's prayers the glands
have been reduced in size and the woman is breathing more freely, but she has not
yet been completely healed. He asks for help from Eddy, or from members of the Christian
Scientist Association, in removing from his own mind the error that is keeping him
from witnessing a complete healing. He is going to send Clara E. Choate a check for $5.00 ($130.59 in 2016) as payment for a subscription to The Christian Science Journal, in case Choate needs it before she sees him in person. Murphy asks when the Sunday
services begin, and he concludes his letter by saying that his wife is unable to study
Christian Science with Eddy at present due to family cares.
