A Wednesday Evening Meeting

H. P. W. with contributions from Samuel Longfellow

The following testimonies were given at a recent Wednesday evening meeting at Savannah, Ga.

One gentleman told about his aunt in England who was a great sufferer from a complication of diseases, among them rheumatism, paralysis, dropsy, asthma, and cataract of the eye. The attending physicians had given her only one month to live; their skill had been exhausted in trying to relieve her. This gentleman had recently been benefited by Christian Science, so immediately sent her some Christian Science literature. She soon ordered a copy of Science and Health, and commenced to take treatment. At once there was an improvement in her condition, and now, although she is an old lady, she is able to attend to her household duties and can see. This was a year ago, and to-day she says she is in better health than ever before in her life, and knows that Christian Science saved her from the grave.

Another gentleman said that a great many people say "Oh, you would have gotten well anyhow," trying to detract from the power of Science. But he is confident that no material remedy could have done anything for him, as he had been under medical treatment since boyhood, and steadily grew worse. He had pulmonary trouble since childhood. The doctors said his left lung was full of ulcers, and finally pronounced it entirely destroyed, and the right one liable to go in the same way. He had lived on medicated air for eighteen months, and gone through every form of treatment advised. After a while a specialist decided that he had Bright's disease also. He bought medicine by the wholesale, but grew worse and worse until, in his extremity, he found Christian Science. He immediately commenced reading the text-book, and his health began to improve. That was seven years ago, and to-day there is not a stronger, healthier man in the city, all his old diseases have completely disappeared.
