The large Primary Class just completed at the Metaphysical College was in some respects the most interesting and promising ever taught by Mrs. Eddy. It included clergymen and students, of rare literary attainments. There was a perfect unity among the members, so that "what fed one, fed all." At the end of the sixth lecture they had received all the instruction necessary for the Primary Course, and on the seventh day their Teacher declared the class finished. Before returning to their several homes the class presented their Teacher with a rare floral gift and a beautiful silver device for the table.
The class-term was concluded in seven days instead of twelve; but notwithstanding this curtailment of the number of sessions, all the students went away perfectly satisfied with the instruction received; and, loving their Teacher, they held a proper sense of their solemn responsibilities as Christian Scientists.
