Cousin Visits Aged Woman.
The only person who has been admitted
to Pleasant View. aside from counsel and
two or three Of the men VINO are nearest
to Mrs. Eddy in the management OF the
Boston interests and the church in this
city, is Gen Henry NJ Baker. an ex-
Congressman. and now chairman Of the

Mrs Eddy was born In conversation
with reporter to-day. he said
Il saw and talked with Mrs Eddy
about a week ago. and again on Saturday
at her request. It has been her custom
for many years past to send for me Oc-
icaslonally to talk over business mat
tiers.
Il was with her about n half hour a
day, and with her che whole matter OF
this latest move by her enemies was
gone through. She talked with me con-
corning the legal aspects Of the case. and
/ I told her at the conclusion that in my

Mrs. Eddy Has Nothing to Fear.
Il do not believe that the proceedings
which have been begun will have any
standing in law or that the case viii ever
be brought before the courts to a degree
which would give the plaintiffs the infor-
nation which they seek, but Of which, In

nothing.
Were il possible, on the basis Of such
fiimsy assumption as is contained IN the
bill for a complete accounting 10 be de-
manded by law OF Mrs. Eddy. she would
have nothing TO fear
ITO my personal knowledge, Mrs. Eddy
has. for about twenty years, had the per
sonal direction Of all her financial affairs
with the assistance and advice Of one or
| two Of the leading bankers Of Concord.
Were these bankers called upon in court
to state what they have known Of Mrs.
Eddy as q business woman during all
these years. her side Of the case would
have nothing TO fear
Signs All of Her Own Cheeks.
Mrs. Eddy 10 my knowledge, signs
all her checks down to the present time.
and is as clear mentally and as capable

financial matters as she has been at any
time in the past ten or fifteen years.
What is your opinion Of the stand
/ which MIR. Glover has taken in this mat

My opinion Of George w. Glover IN
the light of this proceeding" said Cen
/ Baker. is that he is a miserable migrate
after al that his mother has done for
him. and was willing 10 do. The story
that q trust fund had been created for
his benefit is, 10 my personal knOWl-
edge true, and while ] am not willing 10
state the exact amount Of that fund, l
will say that it is less than $4,000

/ Gen. Baker was also asked II he would
appear as associate counsel for Mrs.
Eddy. to which he replied that his name
would not be entered as such. though he
no doubt would act in an advisory ca
pacitv were proceedings given legal
standing. a result which he very much
doubted.
Many curiosity seekers attended the
service at the Christian Science Church
this morning. but there was no public
reference to the matter unless a hymn,
abide not in the world Of dreams,
which was sung, could be considered as
appropriate TO the excitement Of the dag.
People in this city continue almost with
one accord 20 express their sympathy for
Mrs Eddy
Notwithstanding the fact that al the
facts have been told to Mrs. Eddy. and
she has conferred with counsel, church
