March 3 '92
Dear Mr Nixon

You have taken a false step, it may get you subscribers and contributors to the church fund but this is not all If the C. S. Jour had been conducted rightly there would have been no need of rumors to help it; twice the subscription has reached about 5000 names But the way this JournalAs Written:Jour. has been carried on has disheartened my best students and of course they have not worked as much for it. If this MagazineAs Written:Mag. is conducted rightly it will double its list of subscribers shortly . But the Editor cannot be out or off on other business and this be done

Affectionately
MBG Eddy

Do not recall her until April if you and the CommitteeAs Written:Com. think best to have her finish this tour But I hope you will know better next time.

If she gets 10000 subscribers for the JournalAs Written:Jour. it will not change my views They will be lost again unless the JournalAs Written:Jour. deserves them. You look at effects, I at cause Truly MBG Eddy
