ANSON JONES

The fall of 1833 found me with my mother's family and others, camped within the borders of Texas, of which we had just become citizens. Texas was then a wilderness, inhabited by roaming, hostile Indians.

I was a refugee in 1836, fleeing from home before the army of Santa Anna. Of the pioneers who enlisted under the flag of the Lone Star to battle for freedom, I am one of the few now living to testify to former conditions. After seventy years sojourn in my adopted state, I became again a refugee, fleeing from a merciless foe—ill health—to the standard of Christian Science to battle for right against wrong, for truth against error, for God and His demonstrated power.

Only a few years since, Mrs. Eddy startled the world with this new philosophy, this new Science of God, infinite Mind, an ever-present help to those who seek aright, and I am proud to say that I am again a pioneer and have demonstrated this fact of God's healing presence to my entire satisfaction.
