New York, N. Y., April 17, 1910.

Beloved Leader:—"Love is the fulfilling of the law," and surely gratitude is the first-born of love. I write to express to you gratitude for your life, teachings, and writings, which have for the past six years been all to me. At that time I had reached the place where I did not wish to live, and yet feared to die. This condition was not the result of ill health, but of a life wasted and ill spent, that of a prodigal son in every sense of the words. I had separated myself from my family, and wandered far from home and friends in England. A friend used to speak to me of the truth, but I did not hear him, and he left me alone, feeling, as he told me afterward, that the seed had been sown. About a year later a blow came that sent me directly to him, and he advised me to see a practitioner. I went, although little understanding what for; but a short conversation convinced me that the practitioner had something worth while, and I began to hunger for it. Our text-book was put into my hand, and from that day to this it has been my constant companion.
