rollcall, and this was ordered by the mod
orator. 1t showed all present, except Rev.
}. NJ. Tenney of San Jose, who had been
called home on some urgent business.
In response to the request of the mod
orator for the report of the committee on
charges; its chairman, DR.. II. n. Hoyt of
Sacramento, announced that the commit
tee had prepared two reports. One was
formulated fiom letters making certain
charges, which had been submitted by
two ladies, and the other outlining the
method of procedure before the council.
He was asked to read the latter first, and
did so, as follows:
1t is the recommendation OF your Joint COM
mlttee of five that the case of DIR. Brown, before
this council, be conducted by an officer or CON-
mitteeman, with duties similar to those of
judge advocate; that is to say, said officer or
committeeman TO have charge of the presenta-
tion OF all evidence to come before the council
and to question all witnesses in examination,
both direct and cross, excepting the right al
ready accorded DR.. Brown to appear in his own
also excepting the right of any member of the
council to propose questions to any witness
under examination.
DR.. Hoyt nominated Mr.. Woodlands to
take charge of the presentation of evidence
to the council. This brought DR.. Brown
to his feet in an objective mood. He said !:
do not rise positively to oppose this but to
suggest merely 1 would be very glad to ac-
cept Mr.. Woodlands as the prosecuting officer
in this case. But it seems to me anomalous to
me that he who has always been u friend and
who has voted for me on every question that
has arisen of late should be now asked to TAX
position directly opposed to me. 1t would be
unfalr to him and unpleasant, and he would
be placed IN an embarrassing position as my
prosecutor.
Hoyt-The thought expressed by DR.. Brown
was not IN the mind of the committee. We
were not selecting q man to prosecute DR..
Brown, but one who is simply to be the busi-
ness agent OF the council to present the proper
matters toit for its action.
DR.. Browns attention was called to the
The San Francisco call., 1896-02-20

use OF the words in the report of the COM
mlttee which defined the duties of such a
person as being similar to those of Judge
advocate-one who is to act in strictly
| impartial manner-and then withdrew all
opposition to the appointment of Mr..
woodlands, who was duly elected and in
Vlted to take a seat on the platform With
the council mem bers.
Moderator Mclean called for the other
report OF the committee. Before present
ing 1t Chairman Hoyt spoke as follows:
There was difference of opinion among the
h>a1n hers OF the committee to whether you
had given us any other power than that of re-
celving and formulating charges that might be
that we should formulate ana summarize
charges made up from newspapers and other
reports. Ne nave done both. | would pre-
sent the briefe- report and leave to you the
disposition OF the other.
Mr.. W oodhams then read the following; {;
Your committee of three has received the
following charges in writing, and properly
signed copies OF which have been put in the
hands of DR.. Brown:
/. That the Overman letters are genuine
2. That DR.. Brown, in his acquaintance with
Mrs. Albertine Stockton, was not ministerial
in his conduct.
3. That DR.. Brown has been guilty OF intimi-
dation in respect to Mrs. Lena Blanchard.
4. That DR.. Brown was concerned in a con-
spiracy with Miss Overman to spirit Mrs Tun-
nell away from the City.
The proceedings then continued as fol-
lows:
Pond--I move that the committee be in
structed to present the second report.
Brown have not received a copy of the
document read before this body. l was not
furnished copy OF the document just read.
The San Francisco call., 1896-02-20
Brown, and he would read the shorter re-

Brown, and he would read the shorter re-
| port, which is as follows:
Your committee of three has received the
| following charges in writing, ana properly
signed, copies of which have been put in the
| hands of DR.. Brown:
First-That the Oyerman letters are gen.
uine.
second-That DR.. Brown in his acquaintance
with Mrs. Albertine Stock ton was not miniSte-
! rial in his conduct.
Third-That DR.. Brown has been guilty of
intimidation TO Mrs Lena Blanchard.
Fourth-That DR.. Brown was concerned in a
conspiracy with Miss Overman 10 spirit Mrs.
Tunnel away from this City secretly.
At the evening session Mrs. Cooper gave
to the council a lengthy and well-worded
statement: of her knowledge of the charges
against DR.. Brown. With the exception
of one or two new points the document
presented nothing that has not already
been published. She sprang surprise on
the accused pastor and his friends when
she declared that her first positive knowl-
edge of wrongdoing came when Rev. Mr.
Coplin informed her by letter that he
knew Christian lady who was familiar
with the alleged misconduct of DR.. Brown
and Miss Overman.
Mrs. Cooper said that the pastors rela-
tlons with Mrs. Stockton were true in de-
tail and fact, that lady having admitted as
much to her. She had learned however,
that an effort had been made TO prevent
the widows appearance before the coun-
ell, but that she (Mrs "copper" had great
faith in her ultimately coming. Concern
ing the disappearing of Mrs. Tunnel she
said that she mad been informed by a re-
porter that the lady in question left the
home of DR.. Brown about IL 80 o'clock on
the Sunday night following the arrest of
Mrs. Davidson. She made her exit by
means OF a side or rear door.
On cross-examinatio by DR.. Brown,
Mrs. Cooper was asked to repeat the state
ment about Mrs. Tunnell, and the pastor
then said that he had asked this for
purpose as there was neither side nor rear
entrance to his home.
The fall statement of Mrs. Cooper, to-
gether with the days proceedings, will be
found below.
Considerable matter has been printed
recently concerning some supposed
trouble DR.. Brown had with a student at
Oberlin. The following telegram is self
explanatory:
SPRINGFIELD, OHIO, Feb. 19.-An Elyria
(Ohlol special here to-day says DR.. C. o. Brown,
the Congregational preacher of San Francisco,
who has gained especial nOtorietv on account
of charges brought by Mrs. Davidson, mem
Der OF his church, was al one time a student at
Oberlin College. Young Brown and the entire
Brown family were OF good character, being
considered honest, religious and upright. At
Is years OF age the young man married Miss
Mary Wheat of Oberlin, but as it was against
the rules for student to marry. he was COM
PEELED TO leave the college. He pursued his
studies elsewhere.
The council will meet again to-day at .
O'Clock, when the examination of Mrs.
Cooper will be resumed.
The San Francisco call., 1896-02-20

McLean-Yol said you were familiar with
those newspaper reports. We agreed 10 fur.
nish you with. copies of all documents simply
that you might not be surprised
Brown-I asE to have copy of all documen ents
that are in the nature of charges against me.
think that am entitled to them.
1t was decided to provide DR.. Brown
with copies of all papers, after which
Chairman Hoyt spoke as follows:
We have not selected or procured witnesses
TO prove these charges. They have simply been
summarized. Two persons came before the
committee and submitted written evidence
ana we have summarized it, as shown in our
report. In addition TO this we have prepared
another paper which summarizes the charges
| in the news spsper articles.
Mooar-I wish to know if the committee has
the evidence on which the charges in the
newspapers are made.
Hoyt-We have not had time to secure It, but
have made inquiries as to who Will testify and
where they can be found. But we are in doubt
| as to what the procedure is to be, and we have
asked Mr.. Wo0dh ans to help us in this matter
l think that the report we have already made,
and the letters hold in my hands, will make
clear as to what we should do. There are
ladies here who are ready to make statements
to substantiate these charges
+. G. Williams-f the newspaper charges
are brought up and the peopie who cansed
them 10 be printed do not come forward then
DR.. Brown goes clear. If these people do not
come forward we must believe that they are
afraid of the truth. or tnat the matters caused
10 be published by them are not true.
Dr. Ponds motion was adopted, and
Chairman Hoyt spoke as follows:
Isit the desire of the council to hear the sec
ond report previous to hearing the letters we
hold in our hands, or do you desire to leave
entirely in our possession the matters pertain
ing to the first charges?
McLean-The council has assumed the un-
| usual duty of ascertainiEg what charges there
are In the community, and l do not see how
they can go forward without formulating
charges. 1t is unusual for council to show
such Difference to church and to an accused
pastor as has been shown up to now in this
case. We will, therefore, hear these second
| charges.
Chairman Hoyt read them as follows;
| Charges and specifications preferred against

| gational Church:
| CHARGE l-CoNDUCT PREJUDICIAL TO THE WELFARE
OF THE CHURCH.
Specification frst-In this, that knowing

| he publicly recognized and treated her as a
| Christian woman and spoke of her to others in
| terms OF approval, thereby misleading them as
/ to her true character and bringing reproach

Specification second-In this, that knowing

was guilty OF permitting immodest and i'm
