I was somewhat surprised on receiving the enclosed As Written: inclosed letterEditorial Note: See 476.54.006. from Dr Sawyer.
What we told you when there, we did not think or know you intended to tell him.
You will remember that we said more after we found you thought it a duty to inform you of anything that was an injury to ScienceEditorial Note: Christian Science.
What I told you that Miss Graves said, I told you then I had only her word for it. And I had no reason to doubt that .
In her letters she spoke of it. Mrs Laura Sargent read the letters, and the others also.
She told the same to my son, I asked him after I received the letter last night.
We were not under any spell of M.– A.– M.– and how would Miss Graves know anything about this if she was not told.
And Dr S. was the only one she had met before, and she said he told them.
About what he said the night he called on us. Mrs Sargent and Mrs Pendleton heard all he said and we all told you together As Written: togeather , and we told you as it was, his very words, I could not repeat them now, but can remember some things that were said, and I know the others can too.
You can see from his letter he would imply that you told him, I would like to know if you did, if so, I know you did it for some good purpose. Now as for doing or saying anything to injure the Science or any of the ScientistsEditorial Note: Christian Scientists, why should I do it?
This with me is not a cloak to be put on and off as suits circumstances but I feel that this understanding of God is my all .
And I know that in trying to injure another I am the one that will suffer.
I have known that there was some, error at work somewhere. Let me tell you my experience I have had to fight night and day almost, for my family, even my servant girl has not been able in belief, to work for one week: and it has attacked me in almost every form.
When I received Dr Sawyer's letter I thought I could account for it. these beliefs have come in the forms of colds, Typhoid symptoms As Written: symtoms , cramps, pain in limbs, dizziness headaches sore throats and almost every other forms.
I will leave you to draw your own conclusions.
I hope that there is not anything anyoneAs Written:any one can say that will make you lose confidence in me, unless you see something yourself and when you do I beg of you that you will tell me plainly, for it will surely As Written: surly be through ignorance and not intentional.
I do not think I will answer Dr. Sawyer's letter Please answer and tell me what you think.
