Eddyite Denies Charges in Christian Science Case
Herbert W. Eustace, trustee, testified in Boston that the Christian Science Publishing Society trustees did not set up the deed of trust against the church bylaws and never threatened the directors. He said the trustees did not intend to separate the publishing society from the mother church or ignore Mrs. Eddy’s instructions, though they refused to sign the directors’ authority paper. He disputed whether power granted to directors ended with Mrs. Eddy’s death.
