My first testimony was published in The Christian Science Journal of April, 1931. I wish again to express gratitude to God for the many blessings that have come to me during more than forty years.

In 1928, after undergoing surgery three times, I was still suffering from physical trouble. I turned to Christian Science for help and was healed. From that time I have depended entirely on this Science and we have had many healings in our family. Sometimes these came through my own prayers and study; many times they resulted from calling on a Christian Science practitioner.

During the economic depression of the thirties, my husband's business, a wholesale grocery, was lost, and a nice home had to be given up. Several hundred acres of land which he owned were mortgaged to cover the indebtedness. We had help from a practitioner during this time, and many blessings came about as the Bible began to come alive through the light of understanding from the textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy. The holder of the mortgage allowed my husband to cut timber from the land, thus paying off the mortgage. The land was redeemed, and from that time my family and I have had an income from land leases, sales, and other benefits.
