This April 1911 issue of Munsey's Magazine (Vol. XLV, No. 1) contains the featured article "The Girlhood of Mary Baker Eddy: As Revealed in Letters Written by Her and Now Published for the First Time," by Isaac F. Marcosson. The piece presents six previously unpublished letters from Mary Baker Eddy's youth, discovered in the estate of her sister-in-law, Mrs. George Sullivan Baker, in Tilton, New Hampshire. Marcosson provides biographical context on the Baker family—noting her father Mark Baker, brothers Samuel and Albert (the latter a Dartmouth graduate and promising lawyer), and youngest brother George Sullivan Baker. The article reproduces the text of Eddy's earliest known letter, dated September 7, 1835, written at age fourteen to her brother George when he was in Connecticut. The letter concerns family matters, health, and her appreciation for his counsel and affection, written in the candid voice of an unschooled rural girl.
Each page has its own page — the cartoon, who’s in it, and what the satire means.
