A Correction and Explanation

Dear Editor:—Will you kindly give place to the following explanation. Immediately after the Christmas holidays a letter, which I had previously written to Mrs. Eddy, was published in the Sentinel and Journal. In it I thanked her for sending to us a copy of Prof. Theodore F. Seward's book, "Bible Sunshine." I have recently learned that this mention of the book was regarded among some Christian Scientists as an endorsement of it. This is not correct. The author kindly sent this copy to Mrs. Eddy, and as she has but little time to give to anything apart from her increasing work, she sent it to us, and I was merely thanking her for her courtesy.

I have since been told that "many Christian Science healers are putting it into the hands of patients who think they cannot fully understand "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures." This statement, together with the information of the misdirected thought occasioned by a mere mention of the book in a letter which was not intended for publication, leads me to ask the privilege of making this correction. Had I suspected such an erroneous impression had been made upon any one, it should have been righted long ago.
