My dear madam: I have read and been much interested in your "strong reply" to Rev. Dr. A. J. Gordon. May I ask your opinion of the many lately reported "faith cures?" To what do you attribute them? What is the best work published descriptive of your system of healingEditorial Note: Christian Science? I myself have caused strong, stout and healthy persons to fall asleep, simply by waving my hands at a distance from them, they being first told what I intended to do. What is this power? Do you administer physic in healing?

Fraternally yours -
Chas. Marseilles.
