The Lectures

with contributions from J. R. Mosley, Albert S. Batchelder, S. Burd Edwards, A.E. Jennings, Charles B. Jamieson

One of the largest congregations of yesterday [November 9] was that at the Grand Opera House when Mrs. Mims, in a clear and convincing line of argument, propounded and expounded the beliefs, the objects, and results of Christian Science.

There was no possible room left for doubting the deep impression made by the lecturer upon her listeners, who reached from the orchestra circle and parquet to the rear of the family circle and balcony.

Included among the listeners were a number of Atlanta divines, who paid the closest attention to every word and explanation of Mrs. Mims. The audience, too, was distinctly locally cosmopolitan, embracing both the representatives of Atlanta's most exclusive circles and those who move in the plainer paths of the workaday world.
