Metaphysical Healing Efficacious in Bad Burn

Concord Evening Monitor

There was the usual large attendance, and the usual interesting accounts of works of healing from sickness and sin were given at the Wednesday night meeting at Christian Science hall last evening. Among the speakers was the leader of the work in Paris, France, the president of the St. Louis Church, and representatives from Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago, and elsewhere. One speaker confessed that he had been an infidel, had scoffed at the Bible and religion; that Christian Science had led him to Jesus, helped him to love the Bible, and given him a God of Truth and Love. The principal of one of the St. Louis schools, having twelve hundred pupils, bore witness to the value of the study of Science and Health for teachers, and declared that Christian Science had helped him to be a better teacher and a better citizen. Another teacher, who was healed, told of her increased efficiency through the study of Mrs. Eddy's works and the great help to herself and to others that had come therefrom. A letter was read from Rev. Mr. Reynolds of Lancaster, telling of the progress and growth of the movement there, and another letter from a prison convict related his healing from sin, saying: "I can truthfully say that I have been immensely benefited, morally, mentally, and physically. I can faithfully promise that my life on my release from this institution will be one of loyalty to God."

An invitation to attend the opening services of the new church in London, Ontario, was read. The interesting information was given that through the kindness of Mrs. Eddy, the following works, of which she is the author, namely, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," "Miscellaneous Writings," and "No and Yes," had been gladly received by five of the public institutions of Concord.

The meeting concluded with a remarkable case of the instantaneous healing from the painful of a serious burn occasioned by hot fat being accidentally poured upon the head and neck of a Mr. La Force of Concord.
