Beloved Christian Scientists:—I take the following gems from my private treasures and give them to the public that, thereby, American manners toward religion and distinguished individuals be improved, and pattern our ancestors.
Home Office, Whitehall, 28th February, 1901.
Sir:—I am commanded by the King to convey to you hereby His Majesty's thanks for the Loyal and Dutiful Resolution of the Members of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, London, expressing their sympathy with His Majesty and the Royal Family on the occasion of the lamented death of Her late Majesty Queen Victoria.
I am, Sir, Your obedient servant,
(Signed)

Beloved Mother:—Since writing you of the meeting to pass a resolution of sympathy with the King and Royal Family, we have received an acknowledgment of its receipt from His Majesty, King Edward. I read it after the close of the Wednesday evening meeting to a large audience. It was received with great satisfaction, arising largely from its recognition of us by His Majesty, as a Church of Christ. Scientist. The people separated after singing enthusiastically "God Save the King." I enclose the above copy of the acknowledgment.
Now I want to tell you of something else that will rejoice your heart. The demonstration of reaching the public through the press is at last made. Only those who know the conservatism of the English people and press can fully appreciate what it is to accomplish this.
With deepest gratitude and love from Mrs. Miller and
Your student,
