ON WITNESS STAND
Waterbury Man, Adopted Son of Mary

Science Litigation.

BOSTON, May 10. - DIR. f J. Foster
Eddy, adopted son of Mary Baker G
Eddy, was a witness for the defense

the directors of the First Church of
Christ, Scientist, seekin to have Mr..
DittemOTe : removal as a director de
clared void. William G.. Thompson, of
counsel for Mr.. Dlttemore. will continue
the cross examination of DIR. Eddy to-
day.
Dr. Eddy : testimony was almost
wholly concerning events prior to Sept.
|, 1892, when the deed of trust creating
the Christian Science board of directors
was executed. He was called to sustain
the contention of the directors that the
reorganization of the church and the
organization of the now existing First
Church of Christ. Scientist, took place
Aug. %, 1892, not on Sept. %, 1892, as
is contended by Mr.. Dittemore.
Under crOss-eXaminatiOn Dr. Eddy
said that he Is a retired doctor of med
icine. He is now a Christian Scientist
and lives at Waterbury, Vt He was
adopted by Mrs. Eddy under the Massa-
Chusetts laws in 1888 when he was Al
years old
Asked by Mr.. Thompson if it were
true that he joined with Mrs. Eddy 5
son in proceedings brought in the New
Hampshire courts some years ago, dur
ing Mrs Eddy lifetime, to have a
guardian appointed. on the ground that
Mrs Eddy could not take care of her
property, DR.. Eddy said he thought it
was.

tally incompetent when she made it,

The witness described the meeting
held on Aug. %, 1892. at which II OF the
persons who signed the uneXecuted pa
0erS of incorporation were present. He
read to this meeting the deed of trust
then unsigned. and at Mrs. Eddy s direc-
tion told those present that she wished

four men were then elected. Mr.. John

notes of the meeting,
Walter A Dane. of counsel for the di-
reCt0rs. said that a search for these
notes has failed to locate them The
witnes said he gave them to Mrs. Eddy
and saw them but once afterWard They

DR.. Eddy identified as the handwriting
of Mr. johnson the writing of the
words. first meetinG,'' over a report
of the meeting of Sent %. 1892. DR..

had existed before this meeting and said
that their establishment at the meeting

PUTNEY ROAD
TREATED WITH OIL
Residents from Common to Spofford
Lake Road Unite in Effort for Fa-
vOrable Action by SeIeetmen.

Residents of the Putney road from
the common as far north as the road
leading to fSpoffoTd lake have Joined in
an effort to secure oil treatment for
that highway this season. Learning
from the selectmen that this road was
to be placed under patrol of the state,
the residents at once Joined in a petit
tion to State Highway Commissioner
T. w. Dix, but that official has replied
that the state has taken over the road
Only to a limited extent with no pro-
vision for dust laying. Commissioner
Dix adds, however, that if the town
wishes to treat the highway with oil
the state will be willing to aid so far
as it can.
With this question of responsibility
determined the Putney road folks are
now turning their batteries on the Sc.
lectmen. pointing out not only that oil
should be applied for the comfort of the
residents but for the sake of the surface
of the highway itself. There Is little
doubt that the movement has consider
able popular support, for it is generally
admitted that the money spent for oil
last season was good Investment.
