It gives me great pleasure to be able to inform you of another beautiful proof of the efficacy of Christian Science. I was struck on the finger by a baseball with such force that the nail of my little finger was knocked out at the root. Our trainer cut a part of the nail off, saying it would dig into the wound and interfere with the healing. This happened on Thursday afternoon and on the following Saturday I played as good a game of ball as I ever played in my life and have not missed an inning since.

This was a beautiful demonstration to me, as the injury was on my right hand, the one I throw with, but I experienced no difficulty or inconvenience whatsoever in throwing or batting. I have had many proofs of the healing as well as the regenerating power of Christian Science, but this seemed especially wonderful because in the old way of thinking I doubt if I could have played within a week, and then probably only by great effort. Through the protection Christian Science teaches, I have been enabled to play almost five years without missing a game on account of disability. I cannot begin to tell how grateful I am for what understading I have of this healing truth.
