Rev. T. G.. Hodson goes TO Sp,ktne
Monday to take temporary charge Of
the First Methodist church for the pur-
pose Of hearing charges against one Of
the female members of the flock who
is accused OF slandering the preacher,
DIR. Cool. The case has caused quite a
sensation in Methodist circles in Spo-
kane and may result in another split,
as friends Of the minister and OF the
lady are taking sides. Rev. HOdson
says that a trial committee will be ap-
pointed by him to hear the charges, but
their findings may not be final, as the
laws of the church provide for an ap'
peal. II seems to be another OF those
unfortunate rows which have split the
same church before.
