The full bench Of the Massachusetts
supreme Court has decided that the
will Of Rev Mary Baker Eddy has
created a valid public trust which can
be administered by trustee appointed
by the court The decision also de-
clares that the heirs cannot inherit

This finding affects only the portion
Of Mrs. Eddy's estate in Massachusetts,,
consisting Of two properties estimated
at Sl55,000 in value. The most Of Mrs.
Eddy's estate is In New Hampshire,
and the Supreme Court o: that State
