Beloved Student

I had my laugh over your letterEditorial Note: See 003B.03.039 You are right on my despatch of business and of work But you should have said as Patt said. "I think a little credit is due to one ownself"

You I have found prompt to help When I was overtaken by the demand for new plates everythingAs Written:every thing was against me seemingly But see how quickly I had the whole business in shape and how faithfully you carried out my instructions

If only the students will do as I direct and give me the opportunity to direct that is all that is needed

Now I cannot see why I should agree to pay $200Editorial Note: 200.00 for two weeks work done "correctly" until I examine the work of Mr. M Kenzie. So wait till I can examine the plate proofsEditorial Note: This is a reference to the plate proofs for the 226th edition of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. William P. McKenzie and Edward A. Kimball were assisting with copy editing for this major revision of Science and Health. and if they are correct I will pay this sum

With love mother
