Forty-five ladies and gentlemen, from all parts of the country, and one from the old country,—Mrs. Colles, of Killeny Castle, Ireland,—assembled to listen to Mrs. Eddy's instructions in her last primary class, which closed at the vernal equinox, March 21. Perhaps this date was a happy one in its auspices, for it heralded the approaching release of nature from wintry bonds.
Many States were represented in this class: Colorado, Michigan, Iowa, Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Pennsylvania,—the South as well as New England. In fact, this was the largest class, as well as the widest in its constituency, that Mrs. Eddy has ever held.
