ference tins morning. The ve
diet "sustains the charge" an
reports that l,he is hereby d
po-ed from tbe ministry and
expelled from the menibershi

Church, South.
Three ot the 13 members <
the jury refused t? sign the r<

W. H. Ariail.
As soon as the report was rea

there b ing no discussion of
under the church law, Rev. /
Coke Manu? a defense wit net
and a stromr supporter of M
Creighton. arose to a question <
personal privilege.
"All 1 want to say," he hi
gan, trembling with emotion "
that if that verdict is true an
correct, similar charges shoul
be brought astainst three fourtl
of the membership of theChurc
in this State, for the same ta]
is being indulged in against tli

to the General Conference, whic

left the citv, in spite of Bisho
Wilson'9 request that memhei

heard the verd'et. Mr. Croigh'o
did not appear on the fl ?or f

He says ho has just begun h

most stinging campaign in h
