I have only time to say come to me for 4 weeksEditorial Note: Tomlinson had previously worked for Eddy in her household but found the work challenging and had been periodically dismissed before being asked to return. He had been dismissed on January 1, 1908, before Eddy asked him to return with this letter. He ended up working as one of her secretaries fairly consistently from this point through 1910. Let no one know when you go I will pay you at the rate of $120Editorial Note: 120.00 annually Do not fail to come and then if you and God and I think best you can arrange perhaps to remain here

Lovingly
