Editorial Title: Rachel C. Mather to Mary Baker Eddy, September 16, 1879
Author: Rachel C. Mather 
Recipient: Mary Baker Eddy 
Date: September 16, 1879
Manuscript Description: Handwritten by Rachel C. Mather on lined paper from Charlestown, Massachusetts.
Editorial Note: Mather writes of visiting Mary Baker Eddy the previous evening. Eddy had apparently shared with Mather her trials and struggles during their visit, and the main portion of the letter is Mather's attempt to comfort and encourage Eddy. At the end of the letter, Mather says that Eddy is likely to always encounter conflict in conservative New England, and she invites Eddy to come to her home in Beaufort, South Carolina, where she also runs "a large freedman's school," a boarding school for African Americans.
