EPISCOPAL RECTOR
MAY Be TRIED FOR
WEDDING DU POINTS
Twelve of His Peers Likely to
Sit in Judgment on Rev.
Baker P. Lee.
GROOM WAS DIVORCED.
OffenSe a Violation Of Church
Canon 42-Action Rests
With Bishop.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 27.-The first
trial OF its kind in the history Of tho
Episcopal Church in America Is fore
cast to-day in the announcement that
a decision has been reached to place
on trial the Rev. Baker p. Lee, for
mer rector OF Christ Church, for
performing the marriage ceremony
for Alfred /. du Pont, multi -million-
aire and a divorced man, and Miss
Jessie D. Ball, in this city last Sat
urday.
The charge will be a violation Of
an ecclesiastical canon, and trial will
be before twelve Of his peers in the
church. II found guilty the maximum
penalty is deposition from the Epis-
cupal ministry.
At the afternoon session of the
Twenty-SiNth Annual Convention OF
the Diocese OF Los Angeles here, a
resolution was adopted assuring
Bishop Johnson the support Of that
body II he should see ht to call the
Rev. Lee to account for the violation
Of Church Canon AZ.
The resolution is entirely per-
functory as the decision lies with the
Bishop. and It became known after
the convention that he is certain to
call the Rev. Lee formally to answer
for his action.
The situation takes Oh special IN
terest in view OF the fact that teohui-
cally the Rev. Lee is still the head OF
a parish in the diocese OF Los Angeles
and aioo because the whole dinculty
was caused by the performing by him
OF the ceremony for one of the most
important weddings within the E2Dts-
cOpal Church in many yearu.
Mr.. Lee contends that Mr.. du Pont
Is in good standing with his parish
in New York; that the church re-
ceives large donations from him, and
that he Is a communicate Mr. Lee
win set up that Mr.. du Pont was ad-
mitted to communion after he be-
came a divorced man, and that II ls
impossible to administer one saera-
ment and refuse another.
Although no hint has been given az
to the fee he received for performing
the du Pont ceremony, which would
have no bearing on the case in point,
it Is not improbable that the cOmpen-
sation ran into four figures.
