When I was a small child, my aunt was healed through Christian Science after being given up by the physicians. Some time later my mother became interested in this Science. Where we lived there were no others interested, so we did not have the privilege of attending church or Sunday School. However, to please my mother, I read the Lesson-Sermon in the Christian Science Quarterly with her.

After leaving school I visited Yellowstone Park with a brother. One day I became very ill and stayed in the tent and read a copy of The Christian Science Journal which my mother had put into my traveling bag, and I remember clearly realizing that God is All. I was completely freed and went on with the party as usual. This was the first time that I had proved the truth for myself.

Three years later my mother decided to take class instruction from one of our Leader's students. I accompanied her to the city, and there being room in the class I also availed myself of the opportunity, a blessing for which I have never ceased to be grateful. A few months after this, services were started in our home and held there until a Christian Science Society was formed and a public hall secured.
