Promises to Pay Him Mis- Back Sal.
arY-Had Minister Arrested.
CLARKsBURe, Feb. 20.-A happy
compromise was effectad at the elese
of the trial of the Rev. J. A. Wat
son, hitherto the pastor of the Mt.
Zion Colored Baptist Church, held in
Magistrate Samuel w. Gordon's
court on a warrant which had been
sworn out against him by members
of his own feck for disturbing the
religious worship IN his own chureh.
Rev. Watson and two or three of
his congregation got into a fuss some
time age, which grew and assumed
considerable proportions in the
church. Alta special meeting of the
Board OF Trustees Watson was fired
from his pastorate by a vote of 81 to
(, but he held that the action was
void, as be was the only man who
could call meeting of the Board.
He refused to be fired and kept on
as pastor.
Last Sunday he went into the church
and opened up the services, notwith-
standing the fact that another preach
or had been secured to I'LL his place
Members OF the congregation called in
the police to put Watson out, the
meeting broke up IN confusion. and,
as the attorney for the plaintiff argued
Tor his clients, "the members of the
Mt Zion Baptist church went forth
from that edifice last Sunday, hungry
and dry for lack of the enjoyment Of
theis usual Sabbath religious exer-
cises.
While 1t was cnoclusiyely shown |
that Watson deliberately disturbed
the religious services in the church |
the plaintiffs asked that the court
place him under q peace bond TO keep
from disturbing the MI. Zion cengre-
cation In the future.
The court effected compromise
after consulting both of the attorneys
in the case, which was in substance |
that Rev. Watson keep away alto
gether from the church aud let the |
Mt. Zion Baptists worship in peace
and harmony and that the church |
people pay the balance due on his |
salary and have nothing more to do |
With him.
Aud so, happily ended a trial which |
stirred M the members OF a colored |
church Congregation to a pitch of In
tense excitement and caused distinct |
sensation in colored society circles.
