I have been a student of Christian Science for a number of years and have had some beautiful healings. With the help of practitioners I have been completely healed of tuberculosis, pneumonia, a nervous breakdown, and many minor ailments.

When it came to a business problem, I trusted only to material ways and means of working this out, with the result that I failed completely. With the passing on of my parents I was left with a mortgage, covering both their properties, some legacies to heirs, funeral expenses, and because of a change in the trend of fashion, a failing business. Further to complicate the situation, the attorneys holding the mortgage raised their rates of interest.

I felt compelled to seek a loan elsewhere, so transferred into a Building and Loan company, as their rates were represented to be cheaper than the one I was carrying. I then took up the profession of nursing, and for three years kept up the payments on the loan, and with the help of a brother and sister paid the funeral expenses. When nursing was not available I did baking, and raised turkeys and chickens; no task was too hard if I could only meet my obligations. Despite my efforts, however, my payments lapsed, and I awoke to the fact that the last loan had been misrepresented to me, and it would be impossible for me ever to pay it out.
