MRS. EDDY LONG
INSANE SAYS SON
AMENDMENT TO BILL IN EQUITY
FILED AT CONCORD ATTACKS
RELIGIOUS VIEWS.
SEES HALLUC|NAT|ONS
Is One of the Newly Alleged Reasons
For an Accounting--Her Gifts
to Church and the
Poor Perilsd.

Concord, N. H., June S-That Mar,
Baker G. Eddy, the founder of the
Christian Science church. Is and has
en- for many years insane IS the
startling allegation made in an amend
ment to the bill in equity brought by
/ her son, George W. Glover, and 9th
ers styling themselves next friends. "
This amendment injects an entirely
new element into the suit, inasmuch
as the original bill only alleged that
her mind was impaired by the infirm-
titles OF age.
The amendment was filed In the
office of Clerk of Court Amos j. Shurt-
left in this city just before the office
was closed this afternoon
This amendment is viewed BY many
as an attack by the next friends"
upon tha religious views of Mrs. Eddy
and her church.
Mrs Eddy say the next friends,
has declared her belief in the inhu.
ence of mind over mind and that the
control thus exercised in some cas-
is evil and in others good.
Hallucination, Alleges Bill.
This they allege, is one of her hal
lgc nations, and it is expected that
they will bring it out in the trial, to-
gg gther with other opinions held by
her, and allege that they have been
the means by which the defendants
her of various kinds from time to
time.
They therefore ask that all who
have received those gifts be compelled
to restore them to the receiv r, which
they have already asked to have ap
pointed.
Among the more notable of her gifts
Is That Of more than 100000 to th
church & not TT namedP n,sdPfaas as hHEaeaeen,apa
in the bill It is believed the amend
ment may be so construed as 70 ~
clude gifts Of this kind.
During the conduct of the case up
to date no gifts to private persons
have come to the attention OF 'he
court except that to CALVIN a. frs'.,
her secretary for the past quarter o.
a century.
His affidavit, filed at the time the
motion of Mrs. Eddy's trustees 10 IN
tervene and be substituted as piaif'
lifts in place Of the next frltnds
was argued. showed that he had re-
ceiyed from her from time to time
gifts aggregat.ng about $1,000
Frye Only Defendant Affected !,
Mr. Frye, being one of the deiehd-
ants. is therefore, the only person
whom the amendment directly affects
as the case stands up to date. Ihefe
are however. hundreds of persons
scattered throughout the entire couh-
try who have received gifts from MIS-
Eddy who might be affected by the
decision in this connection.
They include those Of her acquainf
anees to whom she has desired 70
show her friendship by gifts OF moft
or less value, the poor ana heeas
with whom she has always sharee
lber property, as well as scores Q
charitable institutions in her hom'
city and elsewhere.
