Text Content: How happened you to establish a college to instruct in metaphysics, when other institutions find little interest in 15 such a dry and abstract subject? Metaphysics, as taught by me at the Massachusetts Metaphysical College, is far from dry and abstract. It 18 is a Science that has the animus of Truth. Its practical application to benefit the race, heal the sick, enlighten and reform the sinner, makes divine metaphysics need- 21 ful, indispensable. Teaching metaphysics at other col- leges means, mainly, elaborating a man-made theory, or some speculative view too vapory and hypothetical 24 for questions of practical import.
