I THINK the first time I ever heard of Christian Science was in February, 1891, while visiting my sister in G— N. H. Many cases that the M. D.'s had pronounced incurable had been healed by Christian Science; among whom was a gentleman I knew. He was healed of a carious bone. I thought if it could do that I could be healed.
I soon found where one of the Scientists lived, and made my way to her and found her full of work. She referred me to a Scientist in Boston—one of Mrs. Eddy's students, but I felt reluctant to leave her without understanding something about it. She sat down and began to explain it to me. I was perfectly delighted! I saw it was the Truth. I did not want to leave her.
Finally she said, "If you will buy Science and Health I will treat you a little while." I did so. I remained under treatment during my stay in G——, which was about three weeks, and left the place feeling much better than when I came. I threw away all my medicines,— except a bottle of camphor I gave to my sister.
