Averring that he will not rest sn-
til restitution has been made for
charges he says were made against
him by man who elected him from
the Underworld saloon and dance
hall Saturday night, Rev. Charles W.

makes the demand that apologies be

Mr.. Sayidge this morning visited
the police station before sending his
letter to the owners of the resort.

Police, however, were unable to give
him any aid owing to the .neager de-
scription the preacher gives of the
man. Mr.. Savidge is not even sure
whether the man was clean -shaven or
whether he wore mustache. His
meager description was that he was
dark, was about 40 years old and
weighed anywhere from 145 to los
pounds.
Writes, to Proprietors.
Because he does NOT know fhe iden-
tity of the man who he says elected
him, the minister addressed his let

His letter reads in part:

you came to ME and ordered me from

my heels and with imprecations and
