Mrs. M. B. G. Eddy.
My Dear Madam–

I must write you once more, and ask if I may come to you in November As Written: Nov.ember

I wrote you the last of Aug. or first of Sept.Editorial Note: See 410.51.003. that I would like to come in Oct, (supposing then that classes were formed each month) and asking that I might be informed as early as possible the day of the month on which the term would commence, have waited patiently a reply, but am impressed that it was not received, or perhaps was overlooked As Written: over-looked in the press of other business.

I have your letter of July 22ndEditorial Note: See V03478. speaking of your interest in the state of my mind, and desiring that I should join your class in early AutumnAs Written:Autum, but for that I should be discouraged, and feel that I could not be accepted. I hope you have not forgotten me, unworthy as I am of your remembrance.

If you could but know my anxiety for fear this great good should be denied me, you would be filled with sympathy. For a whole year I have thought, and hoped, and planned for nothing else, but to learn this beautiful ScienceEditorial Note: Christian Science of you.

My whole life is filled with this one desire, that by this means I may be enabled to live a useful life. May I hope for an early reply?

Very Respectfully Yours,
Maria B. C. Newcomb.
