Affidavit of Miss Julia S. Bartlett
Mrs. Eddy's hair not gray in the
year 1882:
l studied Christian Science with
the Rev. Mary Baker G. Eddy in
1880. The picture of her in sitting
posture, with a book In her hand
was made by Mr.. w. Shaw Warren
in 1882 or 1888. 1t was true like
ness Of Mrs. Eddy as SHE appeared
when / first knew her, in 1880, and
for many years thereafter.
The picture published by Nc
Clure's and represented by the editor
of that magazine as having been
taken from photograph of Mrs.
Eddy made in 1882 is not picture
of Mrs. Eddy and does not represent
her in any way. 1t appears to have
gray hair. In 1882. and for many
years thereafter, Mrs. Eddy's hair
was a natural brown.
(Signed) Julia S. Bartlett.
Boston, Nov. 81, 1906.
Then personally appeared the
above named Julia S. BARTLETT and
made oath that the foregoing state
ment by her subscribed Is true. Be-
fore me,

Affidavit of Mrs. Janet Il. Colman,
c. S. D.-Says positively Mcclure S
picture not a likeness Of Mrs.
Eddy:
l studied with Mrs. Eddy In Jan
uary, 1888. The picture Of Mrs.
Eddy in sitting posture with book in
hand was taken by w. Shaw Warren,
and was given to me the following
Christmas. This is evidence that
the picture was made in 1883, or pre-
viously. 1t is an exact likeness OF
Mrs. Eddy as she appeared at that
time.
The picture which appeared in
December number of McClure'S
magazine, and which is represented
as being a picture of Mrs. Eddy and
having been taken in 1882, is not a
likeness of Mrs. Eddy.

New York. April discharges Of con.
spiracy IN the appointment Of Robert
II. McCurdy as superintendent of the
foreign department Of the Mutual Life
Insurance company were made in a new
action brought by that company against
Richard A. McCurdy, formerly president
OF the company, and his son, Robert.
The complaint alleges that the McCur-
dys conspired to enrich Robert II. Me
Curdy by maintaining his compensa-
ton on commission basis at an ex.
brilliant rate. In the suit the Mutual
seeks to recover from the defendants
81, o02,s4i.
IL is alleged in the complaint that
Robert II. McCurdy's profits derived
from his interests In the Arm Of G. II.
Raymond s Co., metropolitan agents
for the Mutual Life, amounted to $780,,
600 in the ten years prior TO t903. Al
ter he was made superintendent of the

his connection with Raymond q Co.,
but that II was his duty To devote
bis entire time and energy 70 his new

crt II. McCurdy received in commissions
between 1885 and 1905 the sum Of
$i,2s2,s41. A just compensation for
his services while superintendent of the
foreign department Is declared In the
complaint to be $4,000 year prior to
1898, and $4,000 year thereafter UNI
I'll he resigned.
1t is possible that the five indict-
ments for forgery and grand larceny
found against Frederick A. Burnham,
president, George Burnham, Jr., first
vice president and counsel, and George

Mutual Reserve Life Insurance company,
may bed ismissed. Judge 0'sullivan
