My dear Teacher

Although it does not seem necessary for me to Write so soon again, but the Spirit As Written: Sprit moves me to do so. I am very glad you advised me as you did, or rather insisted that I should not do as I did with the “quotations.” I know that the people should get those little hints of Truth, but there is something back of that, why they should be kept contained in your workEditorial Note: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy., the Greatest on earth. It is greater than the Bible to me, as I never should of known What I do now, from the Bible. I cannot As Written: can not explain why I feel as I do about it, but I do, and although I meant no harm, may God pardon me, as well as my dear Teacher for doing so. I of course mean to advertise and spread the Truth more or less all the time, but I shall only express it in my poor way, from your priceless teachings.

Mrs. Eddy, as I pass the Windows of a Drug store and notice an advertising card of some remedy, I can look back to it, as some old relic, of what was once, and look upon it as an interesting curiosity of times gone by, and thinking of what the people believed in once, and what curious sort of folks they must of been, &c. I believe I shall try and Write up something in that line of thought, which I believe is original, What do you think about it Mrs. Eddy? I can feel it and fully realize As Written: realze it, as I write. Give me some idea if you don't As Written: dont think that is a great glimmer of the Truth, would that not be a valuable thing to publish if I can only bring it out right, for I so earnestly realize it as I think and Write about it. My dear Teacher I believe or understand to quite a depth the True Science of Healing, I can fully realize disease as a lie from the beginning, and nothing in reality. I do honestly believe I shall heal many, instantaneously, and doing it already, but now where I see I can get, by and by, by living in the ScienceEditorial Note: Christian Science.

I will not take your time further but know this will be interesting reading to you, for you must be encouraged to hear a student talk as I have Written for you must know that I am in the ScienceEditorial Note: Christian Science some distance, do Write me Mrs. Eddy as often as you can, you can do great good by so doing.

From your Affectionate Student
A. B. Dorman.
