An article in the Christian Science Sentinel made clear to me the duty and privilege of expressing my gratitude for the light which has come to me through the study of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, whose thought was pure enough to perceive the Christ, Truth, and to give again to the world that demonstrable knowledge of God which healed all manner of diseases two thousand years ago, as recorded of the works of Christ Jesus and his followers.

Since I began the study of the Bible together with Science and Health, nearly six years ago, there has been no medicine used for any ills in my family, except when civil law compelled vaccination of two boys, believed to be a preventive of smallpox. We all told the doctor the vaccination would not take, and he applied the treatment the more thoroughly, asserting that it would take, but it did not, and the scratches healed up readily. One boy had a leg mashed by a log rolling against it, blood poisoning set in and a piece of bone came out. We had absent treatment from a Christian Science practitioner and the boy was healed. Toothache, sore throat, and many minor ills have been healed; some instantly. Financial mountains have been leveled through help from a Christian Science practitioner. Once three notes, held by a banking institution, which had the privilege by contract to take possession of personal property to secure their money, were in arrears, but through the understanding of Christian Science as applied to the case by a practitioner a way was found and the obligation met.

For what Christian Science has done for me and for those in my family I am grateful to God, and also to Mrs. Eddy for her untiring efforts to bless mankind.
