Washington Minister Vindicated of
f Girl's Chare After Fonr
J . .;- teen Years.
Jtev. GUbvrt Fwulng William of Wash
r tngion, D. C, a deposed priest of the
I Episcopal church, who, fourteen years
I tfco. was unfrocked and cast upon the
ecclesiastical world a .derelict, and who
four year ago rented a public hall and
before thousands denounced as hideous
the allegations that convicted hiui before
a court of his clerical peers, has been
reinstated, and once more, on Sunday,
at the age of 64. renewed his calling; as
a duly ordained minister of the gospel.
Through the long years that have In
tervened since he was ousted from his
church. In consequence of charges of im
morality brought against him by a young
woman who san? in his choir, he ha
made a tireless plea to be declare! guilt
:ss and restored to the position of honor
in the priesthood- that cast him out '
Fourteen years of suffering and of
human tragedy! In that span of time
the girl upon whose testimony Mr. Will
iams was convicted and deposed as rec
tor of Christ Episcopal church has grown
to womanhood, the man has entered old
age. She stilt Is comely, robust.' The
man's hair la thinned, his mustache is
as white as snow and the wrinkles of
age have furrowed his face and brow.
But today he Is entering upon a new
llk-a life of vindication and honor and
renunciation of those who have embit
tered his career.
Before and during his trtal Mr. Will
iams steadfastly protested his Innocence
and branded as a composition of lies
the testimony on which he was convicted.
Then he denounced his trial as a pro
ceeding manifestly unfair and prejudiced.
He appealed to the civil courts and was
sweeplngly sustained.
The late Bishop Satterlee then appealed
this decision to the supreme court of the
District and It was reversed. Mr. Will-
iamsand his friends among the laity
and clergy used strong endeavors to have
the case,- reopened, pointing out glaring
contradictions and vita! Impossibilities in
the testimony ot witnesses for the prose
cution anil .attacking the verdict of the
court as being against common Justice
and destructive of the usefulness of the
Episcopal discipline. Bishop Satterlee re
mained firm, and there for ten years the
case rested.
'. In commenting on his reinstatement Dr.
Williams declared his complete exonera-
tion and reinstatement were based on
evidence of such an overwhelming and
indisputable character that the standing
committee which heard the witnesses,
headed by Dr. Randolph H. McKim,
recommended unanimously that Bishop
Harding reinstate him. Washington

The man who maligns his home town
Injures himself.
Many a man. la to unlucky that if he
ever got a place on the ladder of fame,
the rungs would break. .
The girl who really can sing Is never

A man minus a grouch of some kind
misses a lot of fun.
All any man wants is Justice but ha
iikea to be the judge.
Most wom?n seem to think it their duty
to cry at a funeral.
Make hay while the sun shines; make
love when the moon shines.
If it had been the return of the prod
