The Christian Science Monitor

A family settlement between Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy and George W. Glover (a son) and Ebenezer J. Foster Eddy (an adopted son), has been concluded and the deeds evidencing the terms of said settlement have been duly executed and delivered. Under these settlement arrangements and the trust heretofore established by Mrs. Eddy, George W. Glover and his family receive the sum of $245,000, and Ebenezer J. Foster Eddy the sum of $45,000.

On Feb. 25, 1907, Mrs. Eddy conveyed to Frank S. Streeter, Archibald McLellan, and Irving C. Tomlinson, $125,000 in trust for her son George and his family, which these trustees now hold. To that trust fund of $125,000 is now added $50,000 of the present payment to George W. Glover, making the total amount held by said trustees the sum of $175,000, which, added to the balance of the moneys now paid, make $245,000 either paid to Glover or set apart in trust for the benefit of himself and his family.

The two sons, in consideration of these moneys, have executed deeds relinquishing all their present and prospective rights or expectant interests in their mother's estate, either as heirs-at-law or as legatees under any will now or heretofore made by Mrs. Eddy; and the sons respectively covenant that neither they nor any one claiming under them will contest or retard the probate of any will which their mother may leave, or attempt to set aside any gifts, deed, or other disposition of property which she has heretofore made, or make any further claim at any time to any portion of her property or estate. They also severally acknowledge that full particulars regarding her estate have been exhibited to them. The details of this settlement have been under consideration since last September.
