Samuel j. Elder and Hon. VIM. A.
Morse. Great credit is due these men
for the calm, considerate, indulgent
and judicial manner in which they
conducted their case.
During the progress of the case it
had been thought advisable by Mr..
Streeter, counsel for Mrs. Eddy, that
an expert alienist, whose honesty, re-
putation and competency could not be
questioned, make a thorough study of
the case and be prepared to pass
judgment thereupon If it became nee
essary. 1t was thought advisable that
this alienist should be the very best
which this country affords, in order to
sible according to the justification
which he might find, and to this end
DIR. Allan McI.ane Hamilton was chos-
en-.
Doctor Hamilton had formerly testi-
fled against Christian Science In
New York case, but his sterling char
acter and veracity is of such a nature
that ii was believed by Mr.. Streeter
and the Christian Scientists whom he
consulted that the doctors disbelief
in some of the teachings of Christian
Science would not in any way inter
fere with his making just and fair
estimate of Mrs. E6dy's condition.
He visited Mrs. Eddy and has decid-
ed to submit his findings for publica-
tion.-Alfred Farlow Gen. Manager
Christian Science, Com. of Publica-
ton, Boston, Mass, August "a, 1907.

rived would be offered and would sus-
tain and prove each and all of the al
legations in their bill relating to the
incompetency of Mrs. Eddy and the
imposition and restraint that was i'm
posed upon her by ali those that were
surrounding her.
Since the beginning of the hearing
by the masters appointed by the
court, the fullest opportunity has been
given them and the greatest latitude
and indulgence has been shown them
by the masters, and yet each succeed
ing day has shown their inability to
idence that would tend to show IN any
degree that Mrs. Eddy was not fully
competent and able to manage her af-
fairs, or, as a matter of fact, that
there was any ground or foundation
whatever for any of the charges that
they so audaciously set forth. And,
after days of reiteration and repetition
of what they intended to show, they
have finally admitted. by their own
motion to dismiss the proceedings,
their utter inability to produce the
ttAQCIitS III >dppOlL Va iItSC
grave, unjust and unfounded charges
that they so emphasized and proclaim
ed at every opportunity through the
press and in all other public ways.
There could be no more complete
and higher vindication of Mrs. Eddy
and no stronger admission of failure
on their own part than their voluntary
act of asking dismissal of the case
that they have themselves instituted.
Such a disposition of the case must
have greater weight in the minds of
all fair-minded persons than even a
finding of the masters in favor of Mrs.
Eddy could possibly have,-to concede
that the evidence they had offered
was so slight that they themselves
recognized that it was not even suffi-
cient to submit to the masters for
their consideration.
During the time which has elapsed
since the institution of this suit, il has
developed in various ways that with
exception of Mr.. Calvin A. Frye, Mrs.
Eddy's faithful secretary, none of the
ten defendants had the slightest
of Mrs Eddy's business af-
fairs nor had ever handled a dollar
of ner money. 1t was also shown by
the affidavits of exnert accountants
that Mr.. Frye had very carefully Civ
en- account of Mrs Eddy's affairs and
that when he closed them up he had
made errors against himself SO that
there was due him something over six
hundred dollars.
1t was also discovered that Mrs. (
Eddy had manifested a shrewdness in I
her investments and in the general /
of her affairs which is
seldom equaled even by the most /
and careful business men. !
Another point of interest to the pub f
ic is the disclosure that Mrs. Eddy 4
s surrounded by trusted friends of 1
Ter own choosing. who are unusually /
attentive and careful regarding N l
wants
The case was defended by Gen.
Frank s. Streeter, his partner. Allen

Collapse of the Eddy Case
The SO-called Next Friends Admit In
ability to Produce Evidence.

The famous so-called suit in equity
which was instituted through George
w. Glover and his daughter, Mary B.
Glover, and others, charging that Rev.
Mary Baker G. Eddy, discoverer and
founder of Christian Science, has been
incompetent to manage her business
affairs and that she mas been CONTROL
ed and dominated by certain of her
followers, has suddenly collapsed by a
motion of the plaintiffs.
For months glaring charges con-
corning the condition of Mrs. Eddy
and the conduct of her near support
ers have been blazoned forth to the
public. and counsel for the so-called
next friends have given out the i'm
preston that startling disclosures
were to be made that they would be
able to prove that Mrs. Eddy is in a
helpless state and in the hands of de-
signing men who We're not giving
proper account of her income.
After months of noisy Boosting it
now turns out that the so-called next
friends" and their counsel are not able
to produce scintilla of evidence in
favor of their allegations but that they
have made their charges without the
slightest provocation: that they never
have had the slightest evidence, but
have manufactured their charges out
Of whole cloth.
There has been and is much specula-
ton as to the real plaintiffs in the
case. as to who originated this gigan-
tic farce, and it now appears to have
been simply an effort to annoy and
discredit Mrs. Eddy and stigmatize
the religion of which she is the found
err and that probably the so-called
next friends were themselves the
tools of designing men," and that
they probably never would have insti-
tuted this suit of their own volition
had they not been solicited and mis-
led.
A few days ago, in the course of the
hearing which has just closed, the
three masters who had been appoint
ed by Judge Chamberlain to determine
the question of Mrs. Eddy's business
capacity on the second of March last,
when she executed a deed of trust
together with the leading counsel on
both sides of the case. visited Mrs.
Eddy at her home and it was found
hat Mrs Eddy was not only thorough
v competent but exceedingly alert
and quite a match for the gentlemen
who visited her. Even the counsel
who was seeking to prove her incom-
potency was heard to remark that
she was as sharp as steel trap
The result of this interview, which
has been published all over the coun-
ry. has established beyond any doubt
he fact that Mrs. Eddy is not only
strong for one of her years,
)ut one of the most alert women of
Ter age who lives at this period.
Ever since the filing of the bill. the
next friends. through their counsel
lave made repeated statements to the
public press as to what they expect Z
ID to prove and the evidence they
claimed to have in nand but which I
hey asserted could not be disclosed
It that time but when opportunity ar
