An Easter Letter

Francis Hastings Jewett

Boston, Easter Sunday.

Dear Mother:—The chain which I send with this is one of several which Mr. Jewett selected and sent me to choose from for Easter, and when I saw this crimson and white one, so rich and beautiful, I immediately thought of you, and wondered if you would care for it to wear with your light summer dresses. The beads came from abroad, and I fancy may be rather uncommon.

Dear Mother, we send it with a whole heartful of love, and if you care for the chain, we shall be glad to have you accept the simple gift from us both.

May I add just one word of gratitude for your exquisite Easter poem, read to us in church this morning, and say that the love it breathed forth was, to me, the inspiration of our resurrection service of nineteen hundred and three.

Lovingly your student,

Francis Hastings Jewett.

To Rev. Mary Baker G. Eddy
Pleasant View, Concord, N.H.
