Dear Madam,

Some four months ago I made application to you for admission to a primary class in Christian Science.

This has been a great disappointment to me, but has not lessened my interest in the ScienceEditorial Note: Christian Science or my desire to take a course of instructions of you personally.

I can refer you to Dr. G. B. Wickersham of DenverEditorial Note: Denver, Colorado, who has been a friend of our family many years, but I had already done that in filling out the blank you sent me. I have been steadily at work in the Science since coming to this place two months ago, with some encouraging results. My aim is to prepare thoroughly for work in the Science and give more of my time and energies to it than I have been able to do heretoforeAs Written:here-to-fore–. To that end I again make application for admission to a primary course of instruction,

With the highest regard for you, [?] Unclear or illegible  and hoping to hear from you favorably I remain,
Yours in the Truth -
