Dear Journal:—I want to tell you of our Martelle Christian Science Meetings, as we call them.
We started about ten months ago with a little handful, perhaps seven in number, and under many serious difficulties, all being farmers scattered over a radius of twenty miles. The weather was cold, and the roads bad part of the time; but every week found us together.
After the third meeting outsiders began to drop in; then other Scientists joined us, until we now number fifteen all told, with a prospect of ten more to be added in two weeks. The average weekly attendance, Scientists and outsiders, is sixty, gathered from a radius of twenty-five miles, but they cannot stay at home.
