Historical Note

On July 4, 1876—the United States centennial—Mary Baker Eddy formalized the students she had taught, creating an organization called the Christian Scientist Association, or CSA. One year before, nine of Eddy’s students had organized an unofficial group, including officers such as a president, secretary, and treasurer.

The CSA existed officially between 1876 and 1889. The CSA was an essential part of the movement’s foundation and fulfilled a number of administrative functions.

An April 12, 1879, meeting at Eddy’s 8 Broad Street home in Lynn, Massachusetts, exemplifies the CSA’s centrality in the growth of Christian Science. There Eddy moved for the CSA to approve the first Christian Scientist church organization, which would be chartered as the Church of Christ (Scientist) that August. The CSA made its further mark on January 31, 1883, when it established the Christian Scientists’ Publishing Company (the precursor to what today remains The Christian Science Publishing Society). It also appointed a Committee on Publication on February 4, 1885.

This collection documents one of the CSA’s main responsibilities, that of managing the Boston Christian Science Reading Room. At an April 6, 1887, meeting, the membership voted to consider opening a “reading and waiting room,” which they located at the Hotel Boylston in September 1888. Receipts and records of sale illustrate the Reading Room’s work in selling and distributing Christian Science literature.

Throughout its formal existence, the CSA weathered challenges to its membership and to furthering the Christian Science movement. At an October 26, 1881, meeting, eight students withdrew from the CSA after reading a letter to Eddy that accused her of “frequent ebullitions of temper, love of money, and the appearance of hypocrisy.” Several weeks later, loyal CSA members expressed gratitude for Eddy’s leadership and teachings. They drafted a list of resolutions, dated November 16, 1881.

The greatest challenge to the CSA came in 1888. Students resigned over a disagreement involving a legal case with Abbie A. Corner, one of the CSA members. She was charged with manslaughter when her daughter died in concluded, some CSA members wanted to come to Corner’s defense and use Association funds to pay her legal fees. They disagreed with a vote to collect individual donations instead—something Eddy tended to favor. In the following days, dozens of members resigned, including Charles A.S. Troup, who was serving as both the secretary and treasurer. With his help, the dissenting members took possession of the CSA’s money, books, and papers. These were not returned until a legal settlement was made the following June.

As part of her reorganization of the Christian Science movement in 1889, Eddy requested the dissolution of the CSA. Members complied, disbanding on September 23. After this, the CSA continued with Eddy’s approval as an informal organization, holding less regular meetings. It continued to perform certain administrative functions, such as managing the Boston Reading Room until 1894. The format of the CSA (as well as the separate National Christian Scientist Association) would eventually inspire students of authorized Christian Science teachers to form their own associations. These continue to the present day.

Scope and Content Note

The Christian Scientist Association Records consist of correspondence; financial records (including receipts and records of sale); meeting records (including invitations to and reports from meetings); and membership documentation (applications, dues correspondence, lists, and withdrawal requests). The materials in this collection represent official business of the CSA, as well as items relating to its work not generated in an official capacity. They are organized into four series:

Series I. Correspondence, 1883–1895, n.d. Series II. Financial Records, 1888–1900, n.d. Series III. Meeting Records, 1880–1896, n.d. Series IV. Membership Records, 1875–1895, n.d.

Series I, Correspondence, consists of letters, envelopes, and receipts for registered mail. Letters in this series reference both official business of the CSA and issues affecting it. The majority of these letters were sent by individuals (usually members) to officers of the CSA, although some were sent by CSA officers regarding official business. These include form letters and empty envelopes sent to members but returned to the CSA. Two folders include some sealed but mostly empty envelopes addressed to members but never sent. A note accompanying these indicates that they went unsent because addresses could not be located or the recipients were believed disloyal. Receipts for registered mail indicate successful delivery.

Series I is arranged into folders by object type. Letters are arranged chronologically and described at the item level. Returned mail is arranged alphabetically by addressee and described at the item level. Unsent envelopes and receipts of registered mail are arranged in alphabetical order by addressee. Item-level inventories of these materials are available.

Series II, Financial Records, includes bills, checks, receipts, and records of sales for CSA business. Bills and receipts for general expenses document regular business costs, particularly for services officers and members performed on the CSA’s behalf. The majority of materials in this series document expenses incurred at the CSA-managed Reading Room. Many of these items are receipts for literature purchased from The Christian Science Publishing Society for Reading Room sales. Other receipts include those for utilities and services rendered by individuals and companies at Reading Rooms. Additional receipts document rent the CSA paid at different locations, including places housing the Boston Reading Room and halls rented for CSA meetings. Sales records include inventories of materials sold in Reading Rooms.

Materials in Series II are grouped by object type and arranged chronologically. Folders contain many receipts, grouped together with regard to services rendered and arranged chronologically. This series is described at the item level.

minutes, officer reports (particularly annual reports of the secretary and treasurer), and resolutions. Form letters sent to members, alerting them to upcoming meetings, are also present. Other items include drafts of resolutions and notes on proposed changes to bylaws and motions. Other materials are related to the recovery of money, books, and papers from former members, including a chronology of these actions written by William B. Johnson in the summer of 1889. Despite Eddy’s official dissolution of the CSA in 1889, members subsequently retained the structure of the organization and some of its activities. Post-1889 documents relate to annual and biennial meetings held in the early 1890s.

Series III is arranged chronologically and described at the item level.

Series IV, Membership Records, consists of membership applications, dues correspondence, lists, and withdrawal requests. Most of the applications for membership date from 1882 to 1885 and 1888 to 1889. Applications from 1886 and 1887 were filed alongside applications to the National Christian Scientist Association and can be found in LSC026, Series V, Membership Records. There is also a notebook documenting the nine earliest members who first formed the proto-Association in 1875, and five applications for membership signed by Eddy in 1894 and 1895. Documentation regarding dues includes correspondence requesting or accompanying payment of membership dues, as well as records for payment. Membership lists, as well as slips of paper with member names and addresses, further document the makeup of the CSA. Withdrawal requests largely include correspondence from members expressing their desire to leave the organization. Reasons given include ineligibility for membership (based on having never been taught by Eddy), distance from Boston, financial hardship, and breaks with Eddy and/or Christian Science.

Series IV is arranged first by object type. Materials relating to membership dues and withdrawals, as well as lists of members, are organized chronologically and described at the item level. Membership applications are arranged alphabetically within year of application. An index of applications is available. Signatures and addresses are arranged alphabetically.
