In His Last Sickness

It may not have been to the discredit of Dr. Phineas P. Quimby, that in his last sickness, he was under the care of a drug physician, but it does not speak in the highest terms for the efficacy of his healing system, nor can it be said to be a strong argument in favor of the claims of those who are now maintaining that the system of Christian Science healing was borrowed by its author, its Discoverer and Founder, the Rev. Mary Baker Eddy, from Dr. Quimby or his writings. It is well known to every intelligent person these days that Christian Scientists rely upon God, or Divine power, for their healing, in every and any emergency, rather than upon a human physician. It is well for disinterested people, who desire only to know the truth, to bear in mind this fact, and consider the probabilities and non-probabilities of the question in all its aspects.
