My Darling Teacher

I am about to ask a great favor of you for a Dr Thompson who has been an invalid for a long time - has been given up by all the Physicians. Miss Bartlett knows about him as she treated him awhile, then Miss Osgood - now Mr Bertram and he is very much improved

It has caused a great commotion among the people as they were determined he should die - and in fact they rather he would die then to be healed in Truth.

The Dr and his wife are here todayAs Written:to day and say their son is very anxious to study "Christian Science" but that he has not the means to pay Now, that the son will pay you when he earns, or just as soon as he can - that he is a moral young man, nineteen years old. I write this by request of Dr Thompson and wife - they are desirous of an immediate reply.

Please direct to Dr A. B. Thompson

Barnett VermontAs Written:VT

I have not time to write more now as the Dr & wife are about going but hope to see you soon -

Ever your loving Student
Mary E. Harris

P.S.

They would like to know when the Class begins if you will inform them in your reply to this he is very desirous of knowing Christian Science -

Yours with love -

M. E. H.
