I have received so much help in Christian Science that I feel it my duty to write a few lines of gratitude hoping that it may help some one to whom the way seems dark and dreary. The true way was first brought to my notice, nearly eight years ago, by a loving Christian Scientist. I read a little at that time from Science and Health and can now see that I was helped at that time. About four years later I was stricken with a severe nervous attack, and for months lived in great fear. Worse than all the rest was the constantly present fear of insanity. I struggled on in this way for a time; then the same kind friend who first brought Christian Science to my notice suggested to my sister with whom I was staying at this time that Science was the only way out of bondage.

With the loving help of this faithful Scientist I was enabled to grasp a little of the blessed Truth which does indeed set man free. Besides the mental healing, which has come gradually, I have been healed of what the doctors called a valvular affection of the heart; of so-called Spanish influenza by one absent treatment; of the smoking habit while reading "Miscellaneous Writings" by Mary Baker Eddy. For these and many other healings, physical and moral, I am indeed thankful. I am also grateful for the loving help so cheerfully given by all Christian Scientists and for the Christian Science literature, and I find as I am willing to give up a material belief that a spiritual truth is gained.
