Hartford, Conn., Dec. 13, 1908.

Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy, Brookline, Mass.

Beloved Leader:—For some time I have wanted to tell you what you and the truth, which you have rediscovered for all mankind, have done for me. From the time I was two years old I was under the care of doctors, both abroad and in New York city, for my eyes,—the result of an accident,—until a little over ten years ago, when I came to the point where nothing more could be done for me, according to materia medica. I was brought up in the strict orthodox Jewish faith, and therefore was much opposed to the name Christian,—not understanding its true meaning,—consequently my healing was slow. From the time I was led by my little boy, then eight years old, to the Reading Room, and later to Second Church of Christ, Scientist, in New York city, I have never doubted that Christian Science, which is the word of God, is for the Jew and Christian alike. I knew it would heal me, and it did! Since my healing, many of my people have investigated and accepted this blessed truth, and all have been more or less benefited by it.
