Pulpit Charges Refuted

Boston Post,

Brief Extract from the Boston Post, June 8.

Tremont Temple has been the scene of many remarkable gatherings. Within its walls men of nearly all faiths or phases of belief have met and given hearty assent to the proclamation of their creed, yet never in the history of the revered hall, revered because of association, has there ever been a more remarkable demonstration than that of last evening, when the Christian Scientists met to give testimony of their belief.

It was at the close of the interesting service that the great altitude was reached, that fairly seemed to carry the vast audience into the seventh heaven of blessedness. The faces of the throng were aglow with a great aspiration and conscious joy, and the close of the day came to the assembled people like a benediction fraught with consecration. They were exalted because they believed in the triumph of their faith, and it seemed like the coronation day of "Love divine." They had just heard testimony after testimony of the power that had healed from sin and had restored to health, and, above all this, they had just witnessed more than two thousand people rise and publicly refute certain charges that had been made against the tenets of their faith.
