My Dear Sister—
I am such an entire & absolute unbeliever that I have no compunctions about as to Orion or any other full grown person; “The Bible for Learners” may cure him or kill him—a body can’t tell which—but I’ve sent it I’ve ordered the publishers to send it to him—let’s await the result.
You can get the audiphone & send bill to me if Ma wants to try it.
