My dear Teacher

I feel just like saying a few words to you this evening as I sit in my beautiful office. The feeling of love, gratitude and desire to help you on never was greater in me than now, and I feel that I am growing every day stronger and stronger with Great Truth and can feel myself more of a man than ever before. I am getting better satisfied with myself daily. I am "sweeping clean" and have taken a "new broom" and renewed energy. I love the Truth more than ever and I must feel that I am now again nearly in the "straight and narrow way"Matt 7:13 ¶Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Matt 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. to the perfect healing. My office I have lately moved down one flight and refurnished it, I am now up only one flight in place of two and in every respect have a better and more cheerful and inviting office than before, although the other was very good, but up too high for those in the belief of sickness.

I shall be down to BostonEditorial Note: Boston, Massachusetts to see you just a few minutes soon. I am glad you refused to see me when I wrote before as long as you could not spare the time. How wise it is in you to be able to say no in place of yes to every favor asked of you. I have learnt by my little experience that if we say yes to everybodyAs Written:every body, somebody or something is sure to be neglected.

From your Affectionate Student,
Albert

Please tell bro Frye to write me in answer to my letter.
