One of the most remarkable women of this or any other...

Lincoln (Neb.) Daily Star

One of the most remarkable women of this or any other age passed from the scene of worldly activity when Mary Baker Eddy went to sleep to wake no more to mortal consciousness. There may have been women whose personality stood out in more marked contrast with her kind, who were more spectacular, and made more noise in the everyday life of a somewhat noisy world; but for far-reaching and enduring effect upon mankind, the work of this woman who has just passed away at her home in Boston is unparalleled by that of any other woman of ancient or modern times.

Christian Science owes to Mary Baker Eddy the hold it has secured upon the devotional spirit of mankind, and every adherent of its church holds her in reverential memory. Her death will occasion world-wide regret and sorrow, although her span of life has been as long in years as her usefulness could survive. Her work will live after her indefinitely, possibly until the end of time. Her life has been a lesson of what her teachings can accomplish.

Among the great women of the world there has been none who has left so great an impress as has Mrs. Eddy.
