Stetson Case Fractures Christian Science Leadership
Mrs Mary Baker Eddy rebukes Augusta Stetson in a 1909 letter urging self correction amid a growing personal leadership claim by Stetson’s practitioners in New York.

The editor emphasizes class instruction should foster mutual understanding of divine principle, not domination or subservience.
