fidavit before a local alderman, charg
ing her former pastor with attempting

The woman alleges that Rev. Dan
iels, after she had entered the par
sonage. pulled down the blinds and
locked the door so that outsiders
couldn't peer in. She threatened to
make an outcry, which prevented him
from attempting further liberties

be heard before a church council
that he might vindicate himself
against the charges Rev. Dr. w. w.
Evans. superintendent of the Harris
burg district, called a meeting and ap-
pointed an ecclesiastical jury to hear
and try the case
