Chicago, 111., Nov. 29, 1906.
Dear Mrs. Eddy:— The grateful and reverential though of the hour, on this beautiful day of national thanksgiving impels the recall from memory's pages of the experiences of years gone by. In contrast and in bold relief I see the manifold blessings of this year, all seemingly welded into a continuous chain of hallowed events,— the logical sequence of the golden light of Christian Science which has illuminated the dark chambers of my consciousness,— and all because of the courage, fidelity, devotion, love, patience, and spiritual ideas which you have reflected for so many years.
Last March the shadow of pneumonia was quickly dispersed when submitted to the rays of divine Truth, and many other seeming difficulties have since been dissipated by the same scientific law of Christian Science. One of these specific delusions, prejudice of a bitter and intolerant type, clung to me more or less tenaciously after I began the study of Science and Health, and was not overcome until the appearance in the daily press on Oct. 28 of that vicious and malicious attack upon you and your work. That glaring, transparent Beelzebub aroused active thought from its dormant slumber, and at one stroke the intruding nightmare of prejudice was swept away, and the pure air of divine Love became the sublime essence of life.
