Dear Mrs. Eddy: I would like to speak to the suffering, through the Journal, and tell them what has been done for me, through Christian Science.
When eighteen years of age, I had a very severe fit of sickness, which confined me to my room a year, and as I had always been feeble, it was hard for me to rally. After a few years I rode out, but could not walk half a block. I have remained in that condition thirty years, and in that time have had many long and tedious fits of sickness, and employed seventeen different physicians of different schools, but not a Christian Scientist.
Last July I was advised to go to Dr. L. T. Manly, 11 Maple street, Fall River. I began treatment July 25, 1887, without any faith, but it was but a very short time before my faith began to come, as I could see improvement every day. Dr. Manly attended to my case faithfully four months. Since then I have been able to go anywhere I please with ease, walking a mile at a time, and I have enjoyed better health in the past six months than I ever did in my life.
