From Australia
Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, April 24, 1899.
Dear Sentinel:—I desire to express my gratitude to the many Christian Science friends in Boston, Hartford, and New York City, who did so much to make my sojourn among them last year so delightful and profitable. With their help and the never-to-be-forgotten experiences at the Mother Church it would indeed have been strange if I had returned as empty as when I went. I left my home a student of mental Science. I returned with an earnest longing, a desire I feel sure will never grow less, to become a Christian Scientist.
When I left Australia in February of last year, practically nothing was known here of Christian Science. Mental Science was strong in the leading centres of population, and although copies of Science and Health were in the Mental Science libraries, they were seldom read, being considered "too heavy and not containing enough of the Spirit." As soon as I understood the situation, I communicated the facts to my wife and sent her copies of all the literature. She at once took a firm stand. Science and Health is now in great demand, and the present seems big with promise of a rich harvest in the near future.
