In July, 1897, I had a cough and sore throat which developed into pulmonary disease called quick consumption. I coughed violently and was very weak, and at times had a high fever, but being anxious to finish my school work before returning home, I stayed until the summer term closed.

One of my friends insisted upon calling a physician, but knowing what Christian Science had done for my mother who had consumption, and what it had previously done for me, I said, "No, God (Good) has all power, medicine has no power apart from belief."

On August 11, I started for home, a mere skeleton of my former self. I reached Clay Centre the next morning and called on a healer for treatment. September 1 my cough left me, being just three weeks after I began treatment.
