The history of womankind has no parallel to the career of Mary Baker Eddy and its effects on the lives of others, and the woman who passed away at her home in Brookline, Mass.
In the death of Mary Baker Eddy the world has lost a wonderful woman, one whose life's work will go down in church history as the equal of the Wesleys, Calvin, Luther, and others of like prominence in the promulgation and foundation of theological teachings and ethics.
We of the present moment, lacking the gifts of prophecy or even of perspective, must estimate the life, character, and achievements of this Founder of a new religious and philosophic school on a basis of personal observation.
