Dear Mrs Eddy; –

I am very anxious to do just what is right in this causeEditorial Note: The cause of Christian Science. and I wish you would kindly tell me what you think about any of Mr B. Sherman's pupils teaching or the pupils of any of the Normal class? Do you think we should admit any in the AssociationEditorial Note: This is a reference to a Colorado branch of the Christian Scientist Association in Boston, Massachusetts. who had not studied under yourself or some of your Normal Pupils?

I do not wish to teach neither does Mama, but several of the students are doing so and we have tried very hard to make them stop. As I feel that in time it may do more harm than good. please tell me just what you think of this? Would you allow anyone As Written: any one who had not taken the Course and simply studied the booksEditorial Note: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy and accepted the teachings in the AssociationEditorial Note: This is a reference to a Colorado branch of the Christian Scientist Association in Boston, Massachusetts.?

would the "Metaphysical" Christian Science Association be allowed to meet with the National C. S. A.?

It is quite important that I should have these questions answered from you for the good of those who are in this work. We may feel too rigid about this - and some are meeting with success. I wish to know what is right.

Yours in Truth,
Minnie B. Hall

P. S. Can you give me any hope regarding your coming to Denver? There are many, I know, who would take instruction of you here and cannot afford to pay so many expenses attending As Written: atending so long a trip- We hope to have this the Religion of the West. and Denver is certainly taken by storm. The danger attending this storm is the opposite SchoolEditorial Note: This may be a reference to Warren Felt Evans and the New Thought movement.. Excuse lengthy letter M B. H.
