Dear Mr Fry

I see that the new book is at last out. Will you send me a half a dozen immediately, and I will send by return mail a post office order for the money. Do you make any reduction when the order is for six or a dozen? You know I sent you the money $3.17Editorial Note: $3.17 in 1886 is the equivalent of $91.38 in 2021. for one of the books some time ago. Will you kindly mail it to Miss Emma C. Read

I am doing splendidly in my business! I regretted very much that neither Mr or Mrs Campbell, nor any of the BostonEditorial Note: Boston, Massachusetts ScientistsEditorial Note: Christian Scientists, let me know anything of the meeting of the association. I knew nothing of it until it was all over, so missed seeing four people whom I much wished to see. Of course, as a scientistEditorial Note: Christian Scientist I look at the omission as charitably as I can, and try honestly to believe that it was a misunderstanding. Give much love to my dear dear Mrs Eddy, and tell her I never have ceased to thank her for the wound she gave me, and assure her that my allegiance to her as my liege lady has never swerved for an instant.

Yours sincerely
Laura Lathrop
