I read with delight the last JournalEditorial Note: The June 1894 issue of The Christian Science Journal. especially your portions of it, done well. Please say to Mr. Armstrong I want immediately an assignment of the matter which I have contributed up to this date, dating from the last assignment of copyright. Before it slips from memory I will name a few mistakes of Mr. Frye's viz. writing Science and Health with Key to the ScripturesEditorial Note: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy with quotation marks and a comma after Health. I have forbidden this every time I have read his copy and saw it, but sometimes As Written: sometines he sends it without my examination. I long to see you punctuate my matter just as you do your own; that is the modern way but I know no rules for it, and leave this to you. I have changed the poemEditorial Note: This is a reference to Eddy's poem, "Laying the Cornerstone," which was written on the occasion of the laying of the cornerstone of the Original Edifice of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston. and published in the June 1894 issue of the Journal. It was set to music and sung at the dedication service of the church in January 1895, and published as "Laus Deo" in Miscellaneous Writings, 1883-1896. a little in punctuation and composition which greatly improves it. I wrote it so quickly I had no time to chose words as is necessary To you, my sweet Camilla, I can look for a wise word on hurrying them up on copyright assignment. Why? Because I have an opportunity just now to engage a skillful composer to set the poem to music. But I may not accept his composition. Still it must, before leaving it with him, be copyrighted in my name
