Father Divine, colored cultist known

He first directed the transfer of Is

Then he carefully inspected the
havoc wrought by an early morning
blaze which destroyed the building
and which Sheriff Abram F. Molyneau
said looked like an accidental fire. Sew

day in New York City on a charge Of
felonious assault The charge was
brought after a stabbing affray in his
Harlem heaven" In which a process
server also was beaten.
From the branch heaven" here he
rode in is big limousine, accompanied
by four smiling Negro female angels" !"

room. They chatted for Is minutes.
