ment of Cousin Here

j. G. Beresford, of Davenport Neck,
New Rochelle, through a personal rep
resentative, yesterday denied that the
late Charles Beresford, whose body was
saved from burial in Potter's Field by
the timely intervention Of Supreme
Court Justice John McGrate, of Brook
lyn, was in any way related TO the late
Admiral Lord Charles William de la
Poer Beresford

Beresford from making the denial in
person, but in his behalf it was stated
that Charles Beresford did not belong
to the family of the well known Lord
Charles Beresford and was unknown 10
him.
j. C. Beresford is widely known as
the cousin of Lord Beresford He came
TO the United States twenty-five years
ago. He married Emily Iselin, the
daughter Of Adrian Iselin, banker. and
Is well known socially.

Charles Beresford was member of the
famous Beresford family.
Il know" he said, that Charles
Beresford had dinner with Lord
Charles Beresford at the Holland House
and that they were related. My friend
Mr.. Beresford told me of their inter
view. Any one who ever saw a picture
of Lord Charles and then saw Charles
Beresford must have noted the resem-
blance"

Christian Science
Disseniers Perfect
New Organization
Leader of Independents AS
serss Movement Was Re-
sult Of False Teachings of
Those Controlling Church

The first meeting of the Free and
Independent Christian Science World
Movement, recently organized under
the leadership of Mrs. Helena Barwis,
of 327 Central Park West, former first
reader at the Tenth Christian Science
Church, was held last night at thai
address. The tenets and bylaws of the
rev Church were adopted and per-
manent committees appointed to handle
details of the new organization.
In statement which is proceeded
by an announcement that the. plan is
for 'perpetuation of pure Christian
Science as originally set forth by Mary
Baker Eddy" Mrs. Barwis says:
1--WE organized this movement be-
cause we are convinced that much
erroneous human opinion and false
teaching have crept into the kind Of
Christian Science advocated by those
now in control of the mother church of
Boston. 1t is our opinion that unless
these false teachings are eradicated
from Chri Sciepce, the great dis
covery Of Mary Baker Eddy will be
again lost to the world.
The First Independent Christian
DNAcLiCc AHuICn is composed OF earnest
seekers after truth. We are all loyal
Christian Scientists and faithful fol-
lowers of Mary Baker Eddy. Most of
us have been members of the mother
church for many years.
Our object is to perpetuate the
truth of pure Christian Science as set
forth in the Bible, from Abraham to
Jesus Of Nazareth, and rediscovered
by Mary Baker Eddy. We will en-
deavor to give true knowledge of God
to all seekers, help the suffering and
heal the sick
charter was issued to the new
church on May Is. Helena Barwis.
Joseph Bradley Read and Glenn A.
hratzer were elected trustees of the
governing body for the Metaphysical
College, which will be conducted in
connection with the church. Mai
kalna, Webster Norcross, Sophia
Chlrogge, Herman Chlrogge, Alfred
Joseph Minner, David Silve, Theodore
Ficke, Helena Barwis and Joseph Brad
ley Read were elected trustees of the
church proper
The split, which resulted in organ
ization of the Independent Church is
the outcome of strife that began two
years ago between supporters and op-
ponents of the board of directors Of the
Mother Church.
