LAWYER DENIES
IMMORTALITY
Of RECTOR

LONDON, May 10 dNsJ.
Branded by his own attorney as a
"busybody and a nuisance" the
Rev. Harold Francis Davidson,
rector of Stiffkey Church, Nor
folk, today opened his defense
against charges of immortality
with q score of London girls over
q period of more than 10 years.
After a lengthy recess, the
trial reopened in the church
house Of Westminster Hall. The
proceedings were adjourned for
several weeks after the proSecu-
ton had completed its case to
give the clergyman time to raise
funds for his defense.
But Not Immoral
Rev. Davidson arrived on the
scene after the trial was opened.
He entered the hall while his
attorney, r. F. Levy, was in the
midst of a preliminary state
ment. The lawyer saw the thin,
grey.haired rector taking his seat
and interrupted his prepared
statement to say:
81 will say in his presence
that he Is a buSybOdy and a
nuisance. But there is no evil
dence to support the charge he
lnolested girls for immoral
purposes"
Hundreds of curious spectators,
the majority of them women,
again jammed the hall in the
hope of hearing more of the SEN
sational revelations such as those
which came daily during presen-
tation of the prosecutions evi-
dence.
Relations Honorable.
Levy said that the only direct
evidence against Davidson was
that given by Barbara Harris,
19-year-old teashop waitress, who
accused the clergyman of max
ing up" to her. He declared:
"The rector has had honor.
able and proper associations
with hundreds of young women
for several years. But not one
has come forward and accused
him directly with immortality"
The Rev. Davidson maintains
his only association with young
girls was in the course Of church
rescue work.
