Testimonies of Healing

It is well-nigh time that my "tithe" was in "the storehouse," so I most lovingly submit the following testimony, with a heart full of gratitude which no words can express. When Christian Science first found me I was surely in the valley of shadows, as five or six of the best physicians in our land had said that I could not possibly recover.

UNDER God, I owe all I have and am to the teachings of Christian Science,—my present life, since November, 1900; my spiritual understanding; my earthly possessions, my home, and family circle,—and it is due Mrs. Eddy that I make this declaration in the most public way possible.

It is with a deep sense of gratitude to God and thankfulness to our beloved Leader that I attempt to give a statement of my very remarkable healing through Christian Science. Some ten years ago I was most wonderfully healed of a complication of diseases which threatened to prove fatal, and which the attending physician pronounced incurable.

Christian Science came to my attention through the healing of my wife of appendicitis, and I at once became a student of its text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy.

Christian Science has done so much for me that I wish to add my testimony, as it may be of help to some one under similar circumstances. About three years ago I was suddenly stricken while at work, losing the use of my limbs, my whole right side being badly affected.

My attention was first seriously called to Christian Science through the clear statement made by a friend, who was called upon quite unexpectedly to give a reason for the faith that was in him. Beyond knowing that this friend was a Christian Scientist, I had not heard him speak of it before, so that his clear exposition of such a subject, coming from a business man, impressed me greatly.

For a number of years I had a severe cough and trouble with my lungs. In the spring of 1895, while in St.

From my earliest childhood until a few years ago, when healing came to me in Christian Science, I had never known a time when T was not suffering from pain and weakness. Severe illnesses from lung and throat trouble, etc.

The month of January, 1900, found me a patient a hospital at Memephis, Tenn. , suffering from a severe case of lung trouble.
