Massachusetts Supreme Court Validates Eddy Trust Ruling
The Massachusetts Supreme Court decides Rev. Mary Baker Eddy created a valid public trust to be administered by a court-appointed trustee, barring heirs from inheritance. It bars a state statute limit on the bequest to the church but allows the trust to be managed per Eddy’s wishes, applying only to two properties valued around 143000 dollars in Massachusetts. The New Hampshire Supreme Court previously ruled Eddy’s fortune trust for promoting Christian Science remains valid.
