It is very difficult for the public to understand that Rev. Mary B. G. Eddy is very busy attending to her numerous classes and her large correspondence; and that she is not connected with any of the various so-called Christian Science publications which find their way from the pens of different people throughout the country. When writings bear her name, they are hers, but not otherwise. Even this Journal, which she formerly edited, is now placed in charge of a committee.
Also, the public should understand that Mrs. Eddy is not connected with any church except the Church of Christ (Scientist) in Boston, which holds its meetings in Chickering Hall. Of this church she is the honored Pastor. Mrs. Eddy never preaches at other Scientist Churches, so-called. Indeed she is not always present at the public meetings of her own church, and is rarely able to conduct the Sunday services; though her presence is greatly desired by her friends and the public, and the announcement that she is to preach, always draws a large audience.
