T. @. I4dlock prosecuted. and he wss
instructed by the church people to spare
no pains to convict the disturbsrs, who
were very much frightened BY being
dragged into court. Ali the deiendenss
we're children Of good families, and II
was their Arst oaepse. They csndidly
admitted they laughed ont in church,
and the st,te insisted that BY their own
mouths they we're condemned.
