Concord, N. H., May 6, 1903.

Through the generous gift of the Reverend Mary Baker Eddy the Christian Scientists of Concord, N. H., are to have one of the finest church structures in the Granite State. The plans for this edifice were presented at a largely attended church meeting to-night, and work will begin upon the new structure in the near future. The gift of Mrs. Eddy includes the desirable lot of land now occupied by Christian Science Hall in the heart of the city at the corner of State and School Streets, and is without doubt one of the finest locations in Concord for a church building.

In addition to the gift of this choice lot Mrs. Eddy presents to the church a cash donation of $100,000, making her total present represent the sum of $120,000.
