appeared tonight before the special commit
tee OF Plymouth Church appointed to try his
case. The charges preferred against Bowen
BY the examining committee were read and
Bowen made very lengthy report, which

SANDER, Bowen said that the publication of
his communication ofFebruary 4th, had made

been brought against him, is presumptive
proof that he has not been guilty of SANDER.
