TRIAL AMONG THE QUAKERS,

DIR. DOuEan Clark to Answer for Hay-
ing Undergone the Rite of Baptism.
The Quaker Church Of America promises
to have heresy trial as celebrated In its
limits as the Briggs case in the Presby-
terrain church. DR.. Dougan Clark, profess
SCR In the theological school at Earham
College, at Richmond. Ind, 1t was recently
disclosed, had been baptized with ten other
Quakers, at the yearly meeting at Damas-
Gus. Ohio. during the last summer
This act on the part OF DIR. Clark Is a
direct rebellion against the time-honored
tel cts of the Society of Friends. The ia
nous founder Of the society, George Fox,
expressly laid down that baptism is OF the
spirit and not of the water.
DR.. Clark is not the first Quaker in Amer
lea to offend in the matter of baptism, but
he Is the first man Of prominence in the
society to defy the elders. His position
at Earham College. where he has been
teaching the Quaker youth for years,
makes II necessary that the elders take
action.
Accordingly. DR.. Clark has been tenn
porarily deprived of his honors and in
fiuence and is now passively waiting the
action of the committee which has been
appointed to investigate his heresy.
