I wish to take a course of instruction in Christian Science. Shall I come to Boston or can I get it as well in Chicago or Milwaukee? Can’t you give me help that I cannot get at institutes taught by your students? It will cost two or three times as much to get it at your institute but I do not care for that providing it is right to do it. I am married: have one little girlEditorial Note: Clara L. Clark (b. Light) (1880-1974) was the daughter of Mary Baker Eddy's student Joseph C. Light.. My wifeEditorial Note: Frances "Frankie" W. Light (b. Carter) (1853-1933) was the wife of Mary Baker Eddy's student Joseph C. Light. and her people are opposed to my selling out my store and have no faith in Christian ScienceAs Written:C. S. I am sure it is from God and will make any sacrifice for it. Can I get into your March class providing I can get there?

Truly Yours
