Life and Death of Mary Baker Eddy Founder of Christian Science
Mary Baker Eddy, lifelong devout leader of the Christian Science movement, born in Bow New Hampshire on July 16 1821, led a strenuous literary and church life. After multiple marriages and a pivotal meeting with Quinby she developed Christian Science and founded the Massachusetts Metaphysical College and First Church of Christ Scientist in Boston. Her later years at Pleasant View Concord and Chestnut Hill Newton were marked by public rumor, legal action over guardianship of her estate, and a quiet commitment to study until her death announced yesterday.
