Glover, of Lead City, S. D.. the only son of Mrs. Mary Baker Glover Eddy; his daughter. Mary Baker GIOver and George W. Baker, of Bangor, Milinc, a cousin of Mrs. Eddy. These three. as “next. friends” in legal parlance. of Mrs. Eddy, complain ed against Calvin A. Frye. Irving C. ,, Tomllnson, Herman S. Herring and ‘Lewis C. Strung, of Concord; Alfred Fariow, Ira C. Knapp. William B. John- son and Joseph Armstrong, of Boston; Stephen A Chase. of Fall River. Mass... and Edward A. Kimball, of Chicago, alleging that Mrs. Eddy is, and has been for some time, incompetent to do ‘1 business, or to understand business transacted for her by others; and that '.the‘ defendants have possessed them selves of her person and property and that there is reason to fear that. they have wrongfully converted hcl‘ proper- ty to their own use. ‘01) these grounds the plaintiffs ask for'an accounting on the part of the, dc- . fendants and the creation of a. re- ceivership for Mrs. Eddy's estate. . ’ On March ll. Ebenezer .I. Foster Eddy, of Waterbury. Vermont, an ad- opted son of Mrs. Eddy. and Frederick Walter Baker, of Epsom, \i. ll, her nephew. were joined as plaintiffs. .

These trustees asked of the "court the right to intervene and be ,, substituted as plaintiffs in place of Glover and the other “next friends" ‘In the suit of. Eddy vs. Frye. ‘To this, on April. 16. the trustees made answer and prayed for a speedy hearing an their motion. On the same date the original defendants filed their answer to the‘criglnal bill, entering a general denial of its allegations and charging lack of good faith in the in- ititutlon of the proceedings. ,‘Meanwhile voluminous affidavits have been filed on both sides, includ- ing a letter by Mrs. Eddy herself to the presiding judge. expressing her disbelief in the good faith of the ori- ginal proceedings.
