Text:

P. Quimby of Portland has the
spiritual truth of diseases.
You must imbibe it to be
healed. Go to him again
and lean on no material
or spiritual medium. In
that path of truth I first
found you. Dear one, I am
at present no aid to you although
you think I am, but your spirit
will not at present bear this
quickening or twill leave the
body; hence I leave you till
you ripen into a condition to
meet me. You will miss me
at first, but afterwards grow
more tranquil because of it,
which is important that you may live
for yourself and children.
Love and care for poor sister
a great suffering lies before her.
