Testimonies of Healing

SICK OF THE PALSY

From the July 1887 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Dear Journal: It is with pleasure I submit this testimonial in Truth, for it is my desire that others should know of this new (and yet old) mode of treating the ills of the flesh. For ten months I have been hobbling along on crutches, having been stricken with that dread malady, palsy, or paralysis, in leg and arm. I have been a burden to myself.

A neighbor, hearing of Mr. Filbert, the Scientist at Council Bluffs, went down to see him, and came back healed of a serious trouble, of many years' standing; so I concluded to go and see this strange man.

I was put aboard the train and came down. On the evening of April 26 I consulted Mr. Filbert, and took my first treatment. He told me to stand up. I did so, and took three steps without my crutches. I then called for them, and departed for the night.
