Dear Madam.

I have been reading the “Journal of Christian Science”. and have learned from that of some of the cures, which you have done. I have been ailing nearly all winter, and as I have little faith in Dr's or medicine thought I would write you and perhaps you could do me some good. My health is usually as good as people in general. The middle of December As Written: Dec . I took a hard cold which gave me a cough and my throat troubles me some. it has been much better several times, and I would take cold and bring it on again. I do not feel strong and my back is always rather a poor one. My system is not filled up with medicine as I've never taken but little. I have been married 20 years am 43 years old, no children. I have a pleasant happy home and wish very much to feel better than I do now.

Please write me soon if you think you can help me, and what are your terms, and would you like any more information in regard to myself.

Truly Yours
