NEVER USED PRIZE HORSES

Boston Herald

The rumor which was circulated yesterday, alleging that the Rev. Mary Baker G. Eddy, Leader of the Christian Scientists, had a thrilling experience while driving with the prize horses which had been presented to her by Mr. T. L. L. Temple of Texarkana, Ark., is declared by the Christian Science Committee on Publication to be incorrect. Mr. Farlow says:—

"Mrs. Eddy's secretary and also her driver declare (in fact, Mrs. Eddy herself has told me) that she has never ridden behind the new horses; that her driver tried them and decided that they were not adapted to her drives, and so informed Mrs. Eddy, whereupon she decided not to use them. While she appreciated Mr. Temple's kindness and accepted the beautiful horses out of courtesy to him, she had from the first been really too well satisfied with the pair which she has been driving for several years to give them up for the new ones, and she gave Tattersall and Eckersall back to Mr. Temple."
