Yours of date 12thEditorial Note: This letter is not extant. is now before me. Receive my thanks for the explanation. You speak of a change which needs to be made in your ManuscriptsAs Written:Mss written before, do you mean by this in your Bible ones I suppose you must, whatever As Written: what ever I can do for you in any way that you think I am capable of doing. I am ever ready and at hand to do it.
I have not been aware As Written: a ware that you ever held the argument that the idea Man contained any intelligence whatever As Written: what ever . But then you must know that when you first read your ManuscriptsAs Written:Mss to me it could have been nothing more than an opinion or knowledge of the thing so it is not at all surprising to me to see that I have forgotten how they were written. And then Mary Baker Eddy you know that after we have come to the Wisdom of a certain Point, our knowledge is gone and we forget that we were ever in the dark. Colby was in town a few days ago and in conversation with a friend they remarked that universalism had gone by. and Colby answered by saying yes and so will Spiritualism As Written: Spiritwalism have its day and pass by and there As Written: their will be something As Written: some thing better come up. So you see May perhaps your words were not said in vain that you conveyed to him last summer, Nearly every paper that I take up I see something As Written: some thing which shows that people are calling for a work on this ScienceEditorial Note: Christian Science. I think that whatever As Written: what ever trials you have to undergo As Written: under go by its publication that you will be well repaid by seeing many who will accept and understand. I have not seen Sarah of late as she is not situated so as to commence yet I do not care to be in her influence until As Written: untill I am ready to rub her head. the Lady with her is yet unwell. I shall do with her Just as you have told me to knowing that her Spiritualism is as nothing
