Christian Science and Mrs.Eddy

She and others credit her with the ability to heal instantaneously.

Married three times, she took the name Mary Baker Glover from her first marriage. She was also known from her third marriage as Mary Baker Glover Eddy or Mary Baker G. Eddy.

In 1903 Mark Twain published a book illustrating Eddy and her church entitled Christian Science. Twain wrote

“ In several ways she is the most interesting woman that ever lived and the most extraordinary. The same may be said of her career, and the same may be said of its chief result.

It is thirteen hundred years since the world has produced anyone who could reach up to Mrs. Eddy's waistbelt.”
