From the June 1889 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Since ten years old I have been afflicted with bone scrofula, and the past ten years I have been a hopeless sufferer, given up by the doctors as incurable. At the age of twelve years, two-thirds of the right thigh bone, also portions of the shin bone, were removed by surgeons. A little over a year ago the knuckle joint of the hip bone came out. I have also been a slave to opium. All these years I have not been able to walk without the aid of crutches. Hearing about a Christian Scientist in this town, I came to him, Jan. 6th, last, to take treatment, and after taking three weeks' treatment I began to walk without supports, and I have had no desire for opium since the first treatment. I am now perfectly well, being healed of other diseases also, and can walk very well without anything, and I thank God and Christian Science for it all. Anyone that wishes to know more about my case may do so, by writing to me at the address named.—
