As yYou have said somewhere in your writings that you have taught about four thousand studentsMary Baker Eddy, Science and Health with Key to the Scripturesxii:6During seven years over four thousand students
 were taught by the author in this College. Meanwhile

I am at a loss to understand about your having taught so many students; for I have no record of more than a thousand and I hardly think there is even so many that were taught by you since I have been in your employ.

I call your attention to this matter so that if you were questioned about this matter you would be better prepared to give an answer as to where your money had gone to.?
