Episcrrpal church for more than -10

years, and associated officially with
Wilberforcp University during most ,
of -that time, succumbed here at "his
nonie on Thanksgiving Day to a lin- ;
gerinp illness at the age qf 70 years, j
The death of "Josh" Jones, as the
tees. His sort, Dr. Gilbert H. Jones, I1
was president of the university. It
wais, however, generally charged that '
the bishop was the directing influ- 1
ence in the school's affairs. Serious '
charges were leveled at the prelate v
as a result of the investigations con- '
ductdd by this agVncy. However, the '
aged chairman, fought off the attacks
defiantly and was able to- continue '
his leadership until this year's quadrenniuni
of his church, when he v.as '
suspended and B'tshof^lJcverdy C. '
Rjinsom, appointed" to the district a:ul^ ^
made chairman of the board.
Dr.; Robert R. .Wright,'church edi- ^
< tor of Philadelphia, is now the presi- j
dent of tIjo scdtool, having succeeded *
'Dr. Charles S, Wesley of Howard i:
University, who accepted the posi- 1
tion, but resigned without act-iVe ser- ^
vice, v
Bishop Jones' first efforts in behalf
e
tution from debt, but thin task wan t
no sooner complete^, than misfortune t
again befell the institution when
Shorter hall, c?ntyal building of the j

university, was hyrned to the ground. j
Undaunted, the bishop set about to a
restore the school aj^atn, and r.'V*?srvl T
a $30(1,000 fund with which Jones'
halj was built, - - ' *

made against- him. runs the undeniable
story of his arduous and sue- ^
