Edward Townley

Our Leader, Mrs. Eddy, writes in the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health (p. 390), "It is our ignorance of God, the divine Principle, which produces apparent discord, and the right understanding of Him restores harmony." This statement has certainly been proved true in my experience during the thirty-one years since I first learned of Christian Science.

Three physicians had in turn expressed great kindness to me and had prescribed medicines, pills, and lotions, but they had brought no improvement in my health. In an endeavor to obtain all possible benefit from sea air, I spent a short holiday on an island reputed as having a health-giving atmosphere. This too brought no relief but rather the reverse. Severe pains in the head, back, and stomach, together with great weakness and a sense of debility, made it impossible to pursue business activity.

At this point new acquaintances who were earnest students of Christian Science sent me some of the pamphlets printed by The Christian Science Publishing Society, but after reading them I returned them through my mother, saying, "This stuff is making me worse."
