Contest of Mrs. Eddys Will Filed in Concord

In Concord the continuing dispute over Mrs. Eddy’s will sees former Senator Chandler and Professor Taylor join with attorneys to argue the next of kin must seek probate in solemn form. The opinion notes courts may later decide the residuary clause’s validity and equity will interpret the will after proper action.

Opinion on Mary Baker Eddy bequest validity in New Hampshire case

A Massachusetts Church’s residuary bequest to a Boston church from Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy is ruled void under New Hampshire and Massachusetts laws. The opinion notes the domicile of the testatrix, prohibitions on large gifts to a single church, and the lack of authority for the legatee to accept such endowments, leaving the residue to heirs under New Hampshire statutes.

Copyrights and Eddy Legal Question in New Hampshire

The Concord report fronts a Washington dated letter from December 24, 1910 seeking opinion on whether a church may take a legacy under New Hampshire law limiting bequests to churches.

Directors Unfazed by Concord Will Action at Mary Baker Eddy Estate

Directors of the Mother Church of Boston show little alarm over a Concord legal move challenging Mary Baker Eddy's will. They warn a ruling against the bequests could affect other churches and reference past cases like Stephen Salisbury’s Worcester Art Museum gift. An unnamed Boston attorney expects the issue to be manageable, noting the funds support Christian Science aims and may lead to court appointed trustees if needed.
