influence in keeping my heart right even when not surrounded by the purifying influences of home. It does not indeed depend on a woman alone for true piety at home. The husband has duties as important as those of the wife to keep the fire of devotion in a constant blaze upon the domestic altar. She say right when you say she can do much with her influence in making a happy home but she needs air from others. This is true her nature is much more sensitive than that of man’s and frequently a rude word or look so wound her spirit that she shrinks from manifesting her spiritual wants. It does need all the good moral influences of both sexes after all to make a true home. As in the physical world nothing comes to perfection without the aid of the sexes.so I believe in the intellectual and moral world there must be a true marriage in order to produce intellectual and moral perfection. I believe that we are as much men and women spiritually as we are physically and there is not a true marriage without a union in all respects. The male or female mind without its mate is imperfect each needs the other. Where they are brought together in true marriage they form a unit.Tell me how these views coincide with yours. Ask Mary to also write me upon this subject. I want you both to criticize and tell me about what you both think I have written in each letter. I write in great haste and try to imagine you are with me and talking to me. You speak of Elliott’s lectures to young men and women . I have not seen them but since you have spoken of them I fel a desire to read them and shall try to do so.
