The Lectures

with contributions from S. J. Stewart, John S. Miller

A large and representative audience filled the Independent Congregational Church, Sunday afternoon (September 23), to listen to the eminent lecturer, the Hon. William G. Ewing of Chicago, who spoke under the auspices of First Church of Christ, Scientist.

Rev. S. J. Stewart, pastor of the Independent Congregational Church, introduced the speaker in the following language:—

In being honored with the invitation to introduce a distinguished speaker, I am naturally anxious to comply at once with a request coming from neighbors and personal friends. As a public teacher myself, however, of course what I say in public cannot be measured alone by the tests of personal friendship or courtesy. I may say at once that my introduction of the distinguished speaker of the day is an indorsement of the character and sincerity of the man rather than the cause. It would be a false modesty if I were to say that I know nothing about Christian Science.
