Harrison H. Merrick with contributions from Carolyn McArthur Merrick

When I first heard of Christian Science I was a semi-invalid constantly under the doctor's care, usually visiting him two or three times a week. I had been in this condition for several years; just sick enough to feel disagreeable, but not enough of an invalid to give up business entirely. I was supposed to have an enlarged liver, malarial fever, decrepitude of the blood, and other ills.

When Christian Science was presented to me, I became interested in it from the first, gave up medicine, and endeavored in a blundering way to follow its teachings, as I then understood them. Physicians had told me that the climate in St. Louis was injurious to me, and I was considering the selling of my business and moving to a more congenial climate. From the time I gave up medicine and turned to Christian Science for aid I was benefited, and gradually became strong and robust. That was about thirty years ago. I do not remember to have taken a dose of medicine during this period.
