THE LECTURES

The teachings of Christian Science were last night [April 8] explained to a considerable audience in Hope Hall by Mr. Bicknell Young, member of the Christian Science Board of Lectureship of The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, U.S.A. Lieut.-Col. Hobart, who presided, remarked that this was the first occasion on which a lecture on Christian Science had been presented in Liverpool. He (the chairman) stood there as one who, through a small measure only of understanding of the truth of man's divine Principle, God, had derived untold mercies and had been the recipient of many individual and family blessings. Christian Scientists. was not aggressive, nor were Christian Scientists. They did not aspire to convert any one, or to force their views on any individual. They show forbearance and Christian love towards everybody,—to all clergymen, to all medical gentlemen of whatever school, to all nurses and hospitals and institutions for the benefit of the human race, and for the destruction and overcoming of sin and sickness,—and that spirit of forbearance they looked for and expected from all others.

The Earl of Dunmore's daughter, Lady Victoria Murray, Mrs. Ward (London), Mrs. Brimner, Miss Coutts Fowlie. Maurice Sanderson, Mr. Lewis Firth, and a number of other well-known persons, including a sprinkling of clergymen, were among the large audience that gathered at the Montgomery Hall last night [April 15] to hear the lecture on Christian Science given by Mr. Bicknell Young, a member of the Christian Science Board of Lectureship of The First Church of Christ, Scientist, Boston, Mass. Dr. Wilding, the Manchester gentleman who gave up his medical practice on account of his conversion to Christian Science, presided over the meeting, and said that many years of his life had been spent in the study and practice of medicine, and when he reached the conviction that Christian Science was the only true method of healing and the same as shown by Jesus, he forsook all material systems for this healing Christ.
