Mrs. E J. Smith
Dear Student,

Your favorEditorial Note: See 382.50.075. came yesterday. Was delighted to hear from you and learn of your prosperity. May God bless and guide you is ever my prayer.

Hope you are healing the patient you referred As Written: refered to Can you not see how easily the dear Jesus could do it through Christ, Truth, if only he were here?

Well he is here, Jesus was the idea of, and the impersonated Truth. And is this not here to day; and impersonated by you when you change the sick to health and the sinner to repentance and love towards God and Man?

What a glorious mission is yours and how in imagination I can see you walking down the dim Isles of time with this history. But you have enough of my preaching in books.

I wish I could write a letter that would please you As it is, I am absorbed only in this great cause—to honor God and do good to man I hope dear Mrs Smith, you and your husband will soon be with us and working as I know he can work in this field of usefulness. I must close hoping to hear soon

Am glad if you enjoy my last Edition of S.&H.Editorial Note: The sixth edition of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.

Ever truly yours
M B G Eddy
