| Editorial Title: | Martha S. True to Mary Baker Eddy, April 16, 1883 |
| Author: | Martha S. True |
| Recipient: | Mary Baker Eddy |
| Date: | April 16, 1883 |
Manuscript Description: Handwritten by Martha S. True from Patten, Maine.
Editorial Note: True is grateful for the benefits she has received from studying Mary Baker Eddy's
book, Science and Health. She says that she has found the chapter "Recapitulation" to be particularly helpful. She writes at length of her sister seeking treatment
for illness from homeopathy, and then from an alleged Christian Science healer who
recommended that the sister turn to Warren Felt Evans, author of The Mental Cure (1869). True is surprised that a Christian Scientist would recommend Evans, as she
feels that his teachings are not in harmony with Christian Science. She speaks of
others who had been patients of Dorcas Rawson and had also received treatment from Edward J. Arens, but without result. True describes her desire to help her mother and others through
Christian Science, and she asks if Eddy has a class currently and when her next class
will be. There is no evidence that she ever studied with Eddy.
