William Somers with contributions from Elizabeth H. Somers

After eight years' experience in the truth as taught by MRs. Eddy in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," I feel it a duty to tell others what Christian Science has done for me and mine. I have been healed of heart and stomach trouble, and many other ills. I have also been lifted out of such bad moral conditions as envy, jealousy, hate, selfishness, the tobacco and liquor habit, as well as such mental conditions as fear, worry, doubt, discouragement, etc., and in place of being without any hope or God, I have a firm hope and trust in God as my only Saviour, through a knowledge of the truth taught in Christian Science. I now know that God is the source of my life, my health, and my supply.

Our children have been healed of measles, scarlet fever, throat trouble, whooping-cough, etc.; and we have also received help in case of accidents, such as falling down a flight of stairs. One child, just three years old, had some hot tea spilled over her, but the effects were overcome instantaneously, for there was not even a blister; and another child had a large flatiron fall on her foot, but this injury was healed in two days, all through Christian Science.

We have had no medicine in our house for the last eight years. Our only reliance has been in God. I hope this may be as a cup of cold water to some needy one.

Through Christian Science our baby was healed of a wasting disease, whereupon we got a copy of the text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy, and studied it together. We went to church for some time, and after studying the text-book for three months my husband found that he was healed. He could eat whatever he wanted, and having at the same time lost all appetite for liquor and tobacco, our home became more harmonious. He has given a testimony of this healing several times in the Christian Science society of which he is a member, and I gladly assent to its truth, as I have been an eye-witness to his healing, and also to that of the children.

My husband has not been sick one day for several years, and he is more interested in Christian Science than ever. We are indeed grateful for it, since it has brought peace and harmony to our home, where formerly there was only discord.
