RI. REV. BISHOP ToEBBE's ANSWER IN THE
ST.. AUGUSTINE CHURCH SUGT-HE DENIES
THAT He HAD ANY KNOWLEDGE AS TO How
THE PLAINTIFFS MONEY WAS APPLIED. The
following is the answer of Bishop Toebbe in
Il, nf wi ku Mt ND <~tb tbap
against Joseph Goebbles and others, Trustees
OF st. Augustine Church, in which the
plaintiff sues to recover money loaned to
the Trustees of the Church for the purposes
of buying ground and building school
house and church, and for which they re-
ceived notes from the Trustees. and they
seek to hold the church property RESPONSE
BILE.
The Bishop says it is true that he holds
the legal title to the following lots: In
Howard d Co.'S Subdivision of Covington,
in Peaseburg, to wit: Lots 26, q, 80 and
40, 6, 7,8, 8, TO- II, II, 13 and IA; and that
he holds said property in trust for the con-
gregation of the Roman Catholic st. Angus
tine Church. ,.
He says portion of said property. to wit.
Lots 26, q. 80 and 40, were donated by ]. c.
Howard, c. G. Wallace and Charles w.
Stewart, for the use and benefit of the
Church, with reservation of reversion to
them if not used for that purpose. These
lots were conveyed to him as title-holder,
simply, for the use of the Church, as is
usual and customary.
But be denies that tine conveyance to
him was fraudulent in purpose, intent or
in fact. Respondent has no knowledge,
nor has he any information, upon which to
found a belief as to the nature of the
plaintiffs demands, or either of them, nor
as to the use to which the money was ap-
piled, for the loans of which the several ob-
legations of the two plaintiffs we're given,
and therefore requires strict proof. Y
He denies that the church property held
by him in trust as aforesaid, is bound for
the plaintiffs demands or either of them,
or any part thereof, or that the plaintiffs
have anv lein thereon. He denies that
the bonds or obligations sued on are the
obligations of the congregation of St.
Augustine Church. He denies that they
or either of them were issued by the
authority of said congregation, or with the
appreciation or that their executive was
ever notified by said congregation.
He denies that said congregation lisa cor
poration. He denies that either personally
or in his official relation as Bishopiof tile
Diocese of Covington he authorized the
parties to these obligations or either of
