Notices

with contributions from James F. Lord

Our readers will be interested to know that a gift of the property at Bow, New Hampshire, which was formerly the farm of Mark Baker, the father of Mary Baker Eddy, where Mary Baker was born in 1821 and where she lived until about fifteen years of age, has been made to The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts, by Mr. James F. Lord of Brookline, Massachusetts, who acquired it in 1917. Since that time Mr. Lord has maintained the property, improving its condition, and in 1918 he erected a Concord granite memorial on the site near where the house stood.

On May 18, 1927, Mr. Lord conveyed the property to The Mother Church with the following consideration stated in the deed:

"In consideration of my most profound respect for Mary Baker Eddy and my deepest gratitude for the regenerating Truth which she brought to the world through her discovery and teaching of Christian Science."
