I am one of Dr. Roger Sherman's students in Christian Science and how faithful he has been in his teachings you can well understand; and now I desire to take a course under you, hoping to be able to come to you in January or February 1886.

Kindly let know when classes will be formed, suitable for me to join during the early part of the new year.

When I come would very much desire, if possible, to board in you family.

I would like to express my deep regard toward you only words seem idle when the truest compliment that can be paid you is in trying to live a life conformed to the spirit of your beautiful lessons.
