In 1913, Christian Science was first brought to my notice by my wife, who borrowed the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. I read a considerable part of it, but could not understand how healing was brought about. At the same time I was glad to find that in her book Mrs. Eddy had answered many questions that from time to time had confused me when reading the Bible. For this I was truly grateful, because I had questioned ministers upon these points, but they could not explain them.

About this time, 1914, the world war had commenced. Together with some friends I undertook the duty of helping in the work of entertaining those of our men who were looked after by the Australian Y.M.C.A., at a theater in London. While I was there my right foot became helpless; all its former spring and usefulness seemed gone, and I was assured by a fellow worker that I was suffering from neuritis in the ankle joint. I was healed of this difficulty instantaneously by the understanding of a Christian Science practitioner whose loving help I sought. On another occasion I was healed of an irritating disease which afflicted me near the joints in both my legs and my arms. It seemed at the time the most distressing pain I had been called upon to bear.
