REJECTED MINISTER DIES.
Vincent NoII Succumbs to Grief Over
Refusal of License to Preach.

REFUSAL OF License TO TfSdSi'
New York, May 14.-Refused min
listers license month ago by the New
| York presbytery because he quesuoned
the existence of Adam, Vincent Noil, a
young theological student became ILL.,
and early yesterday he died.
| The presbytery at it's meeting Moi
DAY had reversed it's former action ana
decided to accept the young man, put
| it was too late and Noll never learned
| of his success. He was dead when the
morning papers containing the news
reached his friends.
That young Nolls death was
FASTENED If not actually brought about
hy his rejection is claimed by many. IL
Is known that constant worry SO
wrought upon him that he had not the
ability to fight the disease which ended
his life
This death has reopened the old
wound caused by allegations that the
New York presbytery Disseminated
against candidates coming from Union
Theological Seminary.
ut is all part of a scheme said the
Rev. Charles Ripley Gillette, secretary
of the faculty and professor OF theologi-
"a, German in the Union Seminary, TO
kill this institution. And may say
that they have taken "a pretty Dig con
tract upon their hands.
at is impossible for any one TO say
that the action of the presbytery Killed
this young man. but the Following are
undeniable facts:
"This young man had studied nara
He was under the care OF the New
York presbytery, and had been SO 1o1
many years.
",The candidate first was examined
privately and then was taken before
the full presbytery of some l5o mem
bers-only about ten of whom he knew
and he was literally pounded. CUES
lions were asked him from every side,
and it was evident that the fact that
The came from this seminary caused
the examination to be far more rigid
and severe than 1t otherwise would
have been.
"They asked him If he believed that
Adam was historical parsonage, and,
of course, he answered no. Any think
ing man would have done the same
thing. He simply followed the line OF
all advanced thought of today and
proved that he himself was not all
antediluvian. But every possible eff
fort was made to trip him up"
According to DR.. Gillette, the young
Bohemian grew worse steadily after
his appearance before the presbytery
He was taken to the hospital, but as he
was stricken hopelessly with consump-
ton he had to be removed to the home
of his sister at 430 East Seventy ninth
street. His sister said today that the
young man had continually grieved
about the presbytery's treatment OF
him in his delirium. She said that in
his lucid moments he would never dis
cuss the action of the presbytery.

Rockwell was called to the witness
stand, and declared Rockwell had never
given her more than s45 month and
that five of the thirteen years they had
been married he gave her nothing.

Judge Gaynor. while the attorneys
