When a member of our family was healed through the understanding of a practitioner I was very bitter against Christian Science and lost no opportunity to ridicule it. However, I noticed improvements in this individual which I could not deny.

One night I was alone and a great fear of burglars seemed to possess me. I said all the prayers which I had been taught to say in the church which I attended, but my fear increased. In desperation I turned to the textbook on Christian Science, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, never believing it would help me. I read the first chapter on Prayer and then went to bed and slept the whole night through. Still I said nothing; but I had to admit to myself that I had received a peace that I could never attain from my present belief of God. From then on I always read when fear seemed the strongest, but clung to my religious beliefs and rituals.
