Decatur. Ill., August 1, 1896.
MARY BAKER G. EDDY.
My Dear Mother:— On reading your article on teaching and the new by-law in August Journal, I feel I must acknowledge my love and gratitude to you personally, or imperil my future spiritual growth by allowing anything to prevent an honest confession of benefits received. Therefore, I may be pardoned this trespass on your request about letters.
