Will you please send me your terms & particulars = I am quite interested, and would like to take the Lecture course if I can possible arrange to do so

will you also tell me what my expenses would be per week in your city .. My work is dressmaking but I have very poor health and this winter, am doing but very little.

I have a gift of “secondAs Written:sechond sight” some call it and years ago I was told that unless I gave up and done as the Good Lord wanted me to As Written: too my health and Strength would be taken from me = that certainly has come true .. and it has seemed to me that the past year has been the most trying one of all, For everythingAs Written:every thing I have tried to do has been a failure .. I have myselfAs Written:my self to take care of and must do somethingAs Written:some thing ..

If I go to Boston perhaps I can find something to do that will help pay my expenses..
