How much will it be for them- And I am going to take all the other courses you teach just as soon as possible- and mother & Nellie shall, too- I intend to make my home in California (Southern) on the seacoastAs Written:sea-coast, & work with the scienceEditorial Note: Christian Science there, when I can bring it about to go, and after I have studied some more with you & feel well established & independent in ScienceEditorial Note: Christian Science.

Shall I take a lady for a student who has one eye put out & very much smaller than the other- & if Mrs. HillEditorial Note: Possibly Ada A.
