THE late Edward A. Kimball, C.S.D., our beloved brother whose passing away we announce with profound sympathy, was well known to Christian Scientists all over the world, and was greatly beloved by them for his loyalty and helpfulness to the Cause of Christian Science, which commanded his most earnest and intelligent devotion and labors.
Not only was Mr. Kimball a successful teacher and practitioner of Christian Science, but he was a member of the Christian Science board of lectureship from its organization and in the work of this board he displayed the same marked ability and effectiveness which characterized his work as a teacher and practitioner.
Mr Kimball was fortunate in being a personal student of Mrs. Eddy in the Massachusetts Metaphysical College, and later was honored by her with an appointment as teacher in this college under her direction. One could ask no greater reward for faithful service than the commendation written by Mrs. Eddy when Mr. Kimball tendered his resignation from this important position after five years of service: "The long term of the incumbent teacher in the board of education, Edward A. Kimball, C.S.D., expires in June next, when he retires crowned with honors—his teacher and Leader loving him, and the race benefited by his labors."
