Boston, Dec 188
Your good letter did me good. Now I have not many minutes to scratch. What I meant for your subject of students meeting was, the very method that saved our numbers here, namely, getting together and all uniting thought on the argument "there is no animal magnetism, no hatred, malice, no will power, no power in evil etc." After five minutes of this argument then select the individuals most reached by this demonology and give the several members one or two for each one to treat for malicious m --. Until cured. Dr. A. needs this treatment and it should have been done long before this. Read at every meeting of the C. S. A. The By law relating to keeping the subject you discuss from being spoken outside, on penalty of expulsion Keep up your Bible lessons if you or any one can explain them right.
Would not Mrs. Gestifield join my normal class? Mrs Philbrick will do, and Mrs Bickford is good as gold, but wait a little she will say. I will take Mr Sherman but he was my candidate long ago Thanks more than words can tell for your Christmas offering
Give my love to all the dear members of C. S. A. I shall refer to their Christmas work in Journal
