Please present my compliments to the Publishing Society for their loving sense of my little poemEditorial Note: The April 1905 issue of The Christian Science Journal included the poem "Whither" by Mary Baker Eddy.; and for $100Editorial Note: 100.00 which I certainly do not desire for the service rendered. But greatly prize the courtesy As Written: courtesey that prompted it. You must not repeat it but give me the pleasure to know what you think of my old age versification.

Lovingly yours
M B G Eddy

P. S. Permit me to say that your Journal of this month is fine . The only imperfection is too many pages of Testimonials — 24 pages on one subject are too much like patent medicine suggestions to call attention rather than to satisfy enquiry
