In 1867 I taught the first student of Christian Science the science of Mind-Healing. From this seedling has grown the Massachusetts Metaphysical College in Boston, which was chartered in 1881. Up to this time I have been the sole teacher in my College—from which has sprung the only scientific scholarship in the above branch of education.
As the people understood and demonstrated my Healing-system, physically, morally and spiritually, they became more deeply interested in it. Now the wide demand for this universal benefice is imperative, and it should be met cautiously, systematically and generously. This Healing and educational System should be established on a broad and liberal Christian basis, and law and order should characterize its work.
My students have ample means, through their profession, to sustain the expense of good School buildings located in the best portions of our chief cities, and this should be done without delay.
