A scribe is merely a person who writes.

He may be a copyist, he may be an amanuensis, he may be a writer of originals, and furnish both the language and the ideas.

As usual with Mrs.Eddy, the connection affords no help--"echoing" throws no light upon "scribe." A rock can reflect an echo, a wall can do it, a mountain can do it, many things can do it, but a scribe can't.

A scribe that could reflect an echo could get over thirty dollars a week in a side-show.

Many impresarios would rather have him than a cow with four tails.
