While gratefully acknowledging the public confidence

manifested in daily letters that protest against receiving

instruction in the Massachusetts Metaphysical College

from any other than Mrs. Eddy, I feel, deeply, that of [10]

necessity this imposes on me the severe task of remaining

at present a public servant: also, that this must prevent

my classes from forming as frequently as was an-

nounced in the October number of the Journal, and

necessitates receiving but a select number of students. [15]

To meet the old impediment, lack of time, that has oc-

casioned the irregular intervals between my class terms,

I shall continue to send to each applicant a notice from

one to two weeks previous to the opening term.
