HIGHLAND FALLS, N. Y, Oct. %.
Mrs. Harrington, widow Of Lieut..
Harrington. who persisted with Custer
in the battle Of Little Big Horn, has
applied to Judge William Avery for a
warrant for the arrest of the Rev. Oil
yer P. Hazard, formerly pastor of
the Presbyterian church here. The
judge issued the warrant, and COnsta-
ole Marius made the arrest.
Mr.. Hazard was taken before Avery
for preliminary hearing, and was
bound over in $500 to keep the peace.
Not being able to furnish a bond, Mr..
Hazard was taken to NeWbUrg Jail.
Mr.. Hazard was pastor here twenty
years ago. His affection for his for
mer flock never Waned, and he made
occasional visits to this place and West
Point, making his home with the
Berards. whose family is one Of the
Oldest and most respected here. Mr.
Hazard arrived at the Berard cottage
about a month ago. He was warmly
welcomed and given the best room.
Mrs. Berard lives alone with her
daughter, Mrs. Harrington. Mr. Haz-
zard seemed to enjoy his surround
ings and gave no hint as to the date
of his departure.
see the veranda and lawn covered with
chairs one morning last week Mr..
Hazard told the astOnished ladies that
8. revival meeting which would throw
Moody and Sankey into the shade was
to be held under his auspices during
the afternoon.
Nobody arrived, and Mr.. Hazard
explained that it was because the fire
bell had not been tolled Then the
women began to get afraid They hint
ed that a change of air might benefit
the clergyman.
He smiled and said the Highland air
was the most salubrious he had ever
inhaled.
Mr.. Hazard thought Coroner Miller
and his family, whose house is oppo-
site the Berard cottage, were fit Sub
jects for conversion. One night last
week, when Coroner Miller had just
finished his first sleep, he was aWak-
ened by the noise of his dogs and
poultry. He seized his gun and eau
tiously opened q window. A curious
sight met his gaze.
On top of the chicken coop stood the
minister, book in hand.
Hens and rOOsters were raising an
awful racket, and the dogs were trying
to taste the preacher. Miller knew Mr.
Hazard, and prevailed upon him to
return to the Berard house. The old
gentleman had found an audience,
however, and every night after that
the coroner had revival meetings in
his back yard.
Few knew of the minister's action,
as the Berards feared notoriety, and
Miller, being again up for county cor
oner. was afraid to create prejudice
should he complain.
Matters reached a climax, however,
when the ladies heard a series of ter
rible crashes in the parlor at night.
They dressed as quickly as possible
On a heap Of furniture Mr. Hazard
stood in the middle of the room He
evidently had contemplated building
a large fire, and everything was in
readiness to start it, including logs
which had been drawn in from the
back yard. This led to the minister's
arrest.
