WANTY APPEALS TO GREER
Expelled Member of st. Paul's
Asks Bishop to Act.

A legal paper, signed by Edward Wanfy,
setting forth how long he had been a ccn-
municant and vestryman OF st. Psuls
Church and begging for restoration and a
! setting aside Of the excommuncation
! which was pronounced upon him by the
rector. the Rev. Guy i. Wallis. was yes
terday's development In the Tompkins
VILE. Staten Island, church row. This pa
per was placed in the hands Of Bishop
Greer and read, in part, as follows;
your complainant alleges and believes
that the said Guy L. Wallis had no legal or
valid ground or reason whatever for read.
! ing said so-called accommodation IN open
church, but did so solely from motives OF
malice and with intent TO iniure and de-
grade your complainant PUBLICLY before the
congregation.
Wherefore your complainant asks that
YOU as Bishop Of the Diocese Of New York.
take action under subdivision Of canon %
OF the general canons or the Ep!scopsl
Church to restore your complainant 20 hls
rights as member OF said church, and
that the rector be ORDERED 20 sG% apo 10
the service Of the Holy Communion when
held in said church.
Beyond admitting the presentation of this
plea TO the Bishop Mr.. VANITY refused 10
comment on the progress Of the hgh'
against the rector. The excommunicateo
vestryman, whom the Rev. Mr.. Wallis read
out OF the congregation because Of his al
legci "malice and hatred" By which he
caused scandal within and without the
parish and congregation Of st. Paul's.
said that his complaint was now with the
Bishop and that he would make no further
move until his case had been passed upon.
An examination into the records OF the
church yesterday threw little more ngm
on the history Of the bad feeling at st.
Paul's since the advent of the present rec
tor. When he went TO ST. Pauls to take rp
his work, Henry Stewart, William Lang
don and Ralph Mckee. school trustee, oil
vestrymen Of the church, resigned. The
present body is composed almost entirely OF
rev men. Charles S. Daley. one OF the
vestrymen. declared yesterday that in sphs
OF the fight which had ragged CONTINUALLY
since the arrival OF Mr.. Wallis, the churea
was prospering. and that he believed thst
Pishop Greer would support the present
order Of things and deny the application OF
Mr. Wanty. who. he said, had purposely
started the existing war at the December
meeting.
