Will one and all of my dear correspondents accept this, my answer, to their fervid question: Owing to the time consumed in travel, etcetera, I cannot be present in propria persona at our annual Communion and the dedication in June next of The Mother Church of Christ, Scientist. But I shall be with my blessed Church in spirit and in truth.
I have faith in the givers and in the builders of this church edifice,—admiration for and faith in the grandeur and sublimity of this superb superstructure, wherein all vanity of victory disappears and the glory of divinity appears in all its promise.
Pleasant View, April 8, 1906.
