My dear Mrs Eddy

I received six copies As Written: coppies of Science & HealthEditorial Note: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy the 24th with bill, which I do not understand. Why should I be charged $15.78Editorial Note: 15.78 for six copiesAs Written:coppies, when others are charged but $15.06Editorial Note: 15.06 for six orAs Written:on $30.Editorial Note: 30.00 for twelve?

I know they were sent to Mrs Leavitt last winter at Lockport New YorkAs Written:N. Y for $30 & to people here.

The Express charge on mine was $1.10Editorial Note: 1.10 & at those prices it leaves not a trifle for myself, that although I am desirous to sell many, & would like to have them constantly on hand, I question if it will pay me for the trouble & receive nothing in return.

Very many of Evans books are being sold & recommended here, & it seems As Written: seams to me that there should be some inducement not only to recommend Science & Health, but that we should receive something for our labor.

Most Sincerely Yours
Mrs E. M. White.

Please write me that I may know what to expect & be able to tell my friends here whether As Written: weather or not I shall have Science & Health to let them have. E. M. W.
