I am studying now with Mrs. Reed who this summer studied with Mr. Sherman of Chicago. I have taken treatment of Mrs. Reed & am cured of a sickness of sixteen years standing.

I hope I may be the instrument to help others as I have been helped.

All these years my sisters have taken care of me by teaching, & much as I want to receive instructions from you it is financially out of the question at present.

My half sister, Miss Sarah P. Burnham is City Missionary in Boston & has been for the past 20 yrs.

I see by your paper that you sometimes make special terms for students

Will you give me more definite information so that I may, if possible take advantage of it

I have a sister living in Omaha, Nebraska & if I succeed in what I hope is my work, I wish to go there to work.

Yours respectfully
Julia, M. Burnham
