Plaintiffs Vs Walter Morris Nathaniel Thomas, William Coo per, Aluster Harris, Jesse White, and Fred Fort, Defendants. Doc 140 No. 109 PETITION Come now the plaintiffs and for their cause of action, allege and say: 1. That all of the plaintiffs and defendants are residents of Oma ha, Douglas county Nebraska. 2. That the plaintiff, Emmett H.

That plaintiffs McFall and Wain wright are deacons of said church an<l plaintiffs Blue, McClennon, Dean and Shine are trustees of said church. 3. That Nathaniel Thomas, Wil liam Cooper, Aluster Harris, Wal ter Norris, Jesse White and Fred Fort are members of said Safcem Baptist Church. That Nathaniel Thomas until recently was treas urer of said church and had in his posession all records of monies re ceived and expended by said church, including books of ac count, check books, cancelled checks, bills, receipts and con tracts covering normal operating costs of said Salem Baptist Church and the cost of a new church edi fice and parsonage. 4. That on or about the first day of July 1939, Nathaniel Thomas, was removed as treasurer of said church and he was ordered to turn over to the board of trustee* ail records of his office, and he has failed, neglected and refused so to da 5. That on or about the middle of July, 1938, plaintiff Emmett H. | Hilson was elected pastor of Salem Baptist Church to serve for an indefinite time. That shortly after taking over his office he discover ed that certain funds received from the United States Govern ment from the sale of a church property had not been accounted for in full; that he and the plain tiffs in this action have for many months sought an accounting from the said Thomag and his codefen dants and a production of the re cords relating to said transactions. That these defendants refuse to deliver said records and seek to prevent further investigation of their financial transactions. And in this behalf they have set on foot a conspiracy bo have the plaintiff Emmett H. Hilson removed as pas tor of said church so as to pre vent a completion of the investi gation and recovery of money due said church, which defendants withold. 6. That the defendants are insol vent and if there were a remedy at law, it would be ineffective. 7, That the defendant* and each of them trea.tcn to prevent a check of the financial records of said church, which defendants have in their posession, by doing bodily harm to the plaintiffs; by ritious conduct in meetings of the said Salem BaptUt Church and boards thereof; that the defen uants are spreading iaise anu malicous reports about the work of the plaintiffs and Salem Bap tist church and threaten to con tinue to do so unless restrained and enjoined from so doing; that they have created false accounts against Salem Baptist Church and these plaintiffs and will continue to do unles srestrained therefrom they already having created a two hundred ($200.00) dollar obligation in favor of Harry E.

That unless these defendants and each of them is restrained and enjoined from interfering with the plaintiffs in the conduct of the said Salem Baptist Church and the completion of the investigation of its financial affairs and the questionable financial operations of .the defendants, will suffer irre parable damages for which there is no adequate remedy at law.
