From the January 1902 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I Enclose a letter which a prisoner in our penitentiary desires to send to the Journal.

We have a Christian Science Lesson-Sermon in the Colorado State Penitentiary, at Canon City, once a month. There are about six hundred prisoners in this institution, and we have from two to three hundred of them at our services. We have been told that the Christian Science service is better attended than any other held there. Eighteen prisoners receive the Sentinel and Journal regularly, and some have the Quarterly.

We have fifty copies a week of the Sentinel and twenty-five copies a month of the Journal to distribute at our services, and the gratitude expressed for them is very touching. One young woman told me that no one could know what a comfort they were to her at night in her lonely cell.
