SPRINGFIELD, Dec. 1.-THE death OF ex-

was great and the scandal was brought into
the courts. Father D{ugherty was finally
forced to leave tho city. cne Sunday before his
departure an angry crowd Of parishioners as
sembled at the church dbors and when Father
Dougherty tried to enter lthe church to say
mass he was thrown down the stops. Picking
himself up. the priest faced the angry mob and
bitterly cursed those who had turned their
hands against him. 1t Is q remarkable fact
that nearly all OF those cursed by the priest
met horrible deaths. and. what Is more remark
