Signs of the Times

Annie M. Knott

[Excerpts from an article by Mrs. Annie M. Knott, in The Christian Science Monitor, Boston, Massachusetts]

Mrs. Eddy was born in New England, July 16, 1821; she was reared among deeply religious and thoughtful people. Her personal appearance when she was actively engaged in the work of the Massachusetts Metaphysical College in the eighties was remarkable. Her hair was abundant and beautiful, of a rich brown color, while her complexion was as fresh as that of a woman of twenty-five, and her figure erect and graceful.

It would have been extremely difficult to have guessed her age at this period, as there was a freshness not always seen even in very young persons, but there was also a sort of mental maturity to which few people attain, and that spiritual poise which is not swayed by the passing of the years, but which betokens a reflection of the changeless life of Spirit.
