Eric W. Borden (1848-1921) was born and died in Fall River, Massachusetts. He married Caroline C. Davis in 1873. In 1881, when his father resigned as cashier of the Massasoit National Bank of Fall River, he was elected as his successor. Upon the consolidation of three banks in 1903, he was elected cashier of the Pocasset National Bank, a position he held until his death. In 1886, Stephen A. Chase sent a check from Borden to Mary Baker Eddy for what was most likely a copy of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.
