My dear Student

Yours just received The booksEditorial Note: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy have been sent Am glad you have found out that the action of a weather vaneAs Written:weathervein is no better for a cause, than the battle-axeAs Written:battle axe of an open enemy, I have proven this true long ago

The other one is ousted. I shall not teach spies when I am duly warned

Now do not speak of this matter of Hammond to the ShemansEditorial Note: Bradford Sherman, Roger Sherman, and Martha E. Sherman for I had asked Mr. B. Sherman's interest in this matter before I named it to anyoneAs Written:any one else. I felt it was due to him for the good work he has done. You know I said to you when you named Hammond for a candidate to take charge of an Institute, not College that I doubted his fitness, in all but learning.

I want a learned Teacher, and a firm, honest character to take the head of a ChicagoEditorial Note: Chicago, Illinois Institute

Lovingly Yours
