NOTES FROM THE FIELD

Up to the time I was thirty-five years of age, I had very little to complain of the way of health and I used my strength to the best of my ability in trying to help fill our "barns" so that some day I, too, might say, "Soul, thou hast goods laid up for many years, take thine ease eat drink, and be merry. " I tried at the same time to be a good mother, a good neighbor, and do my duty as far as I knew but I had no God I could love or understand.

NOTES FROM THE FIELD

Several years ago, I found myself under a dreadful bondage of sickness and pain, attended by physicians, nurses, and despairing loved ones, who ministered at my bedside many weary months, with unceasing devotion and much medicine, after the orthodox custom. Finally I got up and around after a fashion—a very poor one.

NOTES FROM THE FIELD

Christian Science found me a wreck, mentally and physically. I had my family to support, and being a carpet weaver, the work at times was rushing and I felt my strength failing day by day.

NOTES FROM THE FIELD

Christian Science has done so much for me that I feel the least I can do is to make some acknowledgment of the facts. For fourteen years I have been suffering from locomotor ataxia, or progressive paralysis.
