FATHER cLUNE DEFENDANT.
Mayor Daniel Catalan Begins Actions
in District Court Against Assistant

Sheriff Holdren was in town Thurs
day and served official notice on Rev.
Father Clune of tire actions COM
menced in district court by Mayor
Daniel Catalan, claiming actual and
exemplary damages ia the sum of
about $4,000. The,plaintiff brings one
suit in behalf of his son George, whom
he claims was assaulted by Father
'Clune and had his school books thrown
into the street. The two other actions
result from the proceedings of the re-
cent Sunday after-meeting, the par
ticulars of which those interested are
more familiar than is the writer and in
which the Ryan letter and the letter
from the committee to the archbishop,
both of which are published on our
first page, are said to have played i'm
portant rarts. Mr.. Catalan alleges
in his petition that Father Clune re-
ferred to the committee Of which he is
a member as liars, ours, hypocrites,
pups" ETC., and tried to convey the i'm
preston that the Ryan letter was or
might be forgery.
The plairtiff has retained Blythe,
Markley, Rule G. Smith and ]. ]. Clarke
to prosecute the actions.
In addition to all this it is said there
is now to be a church investigation OF
financial affairs covering a period of
several years previous to the church
fire, something a large percentage of
the congregation think should be made
public.

Last Thursday several representa-

attendance at meeting of the MEM
bers of Sacred Heart church for the
purpose of settling the unfortunate
misunderstanding between some of the
parishioners and the building commit

Clune and their followers on the other.
relative to the rebuilding of the
church. We learn that the authorities
present at the action upheld the action
of Revs. Burns and Clune in the matter
of the church construction. on the
grounds that they were bound to follow
the instructions OF the archbishop in
whom all authority in the case is vest
ed, and who had approved the plans
and ordered the work of construction
to proceed.
AS we understand the matter, the
meeting disclosed the fact that neither
the committee nor the attitude of the
committee had the approval or sane
ton of the archbishop. and was per-
mitted to consider itself dissolved
Naturally things in town were at a
high pitch, and there was some sort
of fracas between Father Clune, as
sistant pastor, and the son of the
mayor of the town, and on top of
church troubles comes law suits. We

as the priest ignores the committee and
