The above charges it should be understood
were not made by the persons themselves, last
evening, but the charges were read from a
memoranda in DR.. Dana's hand writing, which
he appears to have furnished the Pioneer
Press.-REPoRTER.
After the memoranda of com plants were
read Mr.. McManus, referred to by DR.. Dana
as his authority for the charge of bribery in
taking SIS from teacher for her appoint
ment, said that the allegation was all false,
and he had never made it.
Joseph Roberts, one of the persons re-
ferred to in connection with the charge of
suspending pupils, appeared and made a
statement, saying that he was aggrieved
because his boy was kept for
three or four months in the Madison
school without being assigned to class.
His boy was 18' years old; had been to St.
Johns college, Professor 1aylor's school
and to ST. Mary's parish school. He COM
planned to the superintendent, but could get
no redress from him and so removed his
children from the school.
| From questions put by DR.. Sweeny,
Albert Scheffer and Mr.. Thomson, it appear
ed that Mr.. Roberts had said that he did
not think Mr. Sayles was proper person to
teach andshe removed his children because
he was reinstated after being suspended.
| As no others referred to in the complaints
were present, q number of resolutions were
I'D irTI
vidu lily 70 attend the board on Monday
evening and substantiate their charges.
I The secretary said that he had called OF
the parties ard asked them to attend, bu,
they had said they should not do so, and al
expressed surprise that their names were
mentioned in the matter at all-some knew
nothing about it.
sMr. Merriam thought it hardly possible
that gentleman could make these charges
and not come forward and give his grounds
for the assertions.
MIR. Wlthers thought DR.. Dana ought t.
be present.
Mr.. President also thought the reverend
gentleman, for his own credits sake, SHOULD
attend.
} The secretary said he had asked DR.. Dan
to attend but he said he could not do so-h
had to 90 to Northfeld. The secretar
could get the charges from the Pionee
. Press, but he (Dr. Dana) could not come be
fore the board.
Mr.. Merriam expressed great surprise tina
clergyman should make such charges an
; turn them over to a newspaper and refuse t
> come and substantiate them. The gentle
man should be summoned and ought mos
certainly to be here.
!, DR.. Murphy thought to make such gros
!. insinuations against mans character an
then to try and saddle thel
!. upon other peoples shoulders an
!, all from hearsay-was to spea
mildly anything but honorable. Mr.. Dana
if he values his credit, will postpone his tri
a to Mortified and attend the board and prov
what he says.
= The resolutions were then put separated
: and passed, the secretary being instructed
% serve copy upon each person named.
The board then adjourned till to-morro
