In August, 1907, when I turned to Christian Science I was a mental and physical wreck, my only thought being to get out of this world in some way, I cared not how, in order to relieve my family.
In gives me much joy to add my testimony to the many thousands that have gone before, heralding the good tidings of this healing truth which is filling the world today.

Never a day passes but thought mounts in gratitude to God, the giver of all good, for the glimpses gained of His love and goodness through Christian Science.
When I first attended a Christian Science meeting about twenty-five years ago, I was very much in need of healing—physically, morally, and spiritually.
