The testimonies in The Christian Science Journal and Christian Science Sentinel have always been a source of great joy to me, and I wish to add my testimony to the abundant store.

During my junior year in high school I met with an accident which resulted in a deep gash in my throat. To mortal sense this was serious because the jugular vein was exposed. I was taken to a doctor, who felt the necessity of closing the wound with stitches. Members of my family were notified of the accident, and work was taken up for me in Christian Science. I was beautifully protected, for although at first I was very faint, this condition passed almost instantly. Even during the time that the stitches were being put in I experienced no pain, much to the surprise of the doctor and those around me. I was told that my face and jaw would be very stiff for many days, but they were not. The stitches were removed a few days later, and one week from the day of the accident I was awarded first place in a state declamation contest. Christian Science treatment was continued until the healing was complete.
