Washington, N. C.Nov. 20. A sen
sational attempt to enter a house was
made this morning &i 1 o'clock, when
Mr. T. 11. Davis was awakeneed by a
noise. After an Investigation he dis
covered a man lodged In the chimney,
trying his best to get out. A phone
call was immediately turned In and
Policeman Harris responded. In the
meantime the man in the chimney had
given his name as David Fulford, of
this city. He was calling lustily for
help, shouting that he was suffering,
and imploring Mr. Davis to pull him
out. When the policeman arrived he
found several citizens On the Beetle
and attempts were begun to ettficate
the prisoner. A rope was let down the
chimney. Fulford took hold of same,
but was too weak to hold on. The
chimney was then torn down to the
roof but Fulford was still too far dow
to reach. Finally Mr. Shepherd, a brick
mason, was summoned and extricated
him, taking out the mantel and fire
place. President Visits Norfolk.

The Rev. J. B. Carpenter read the
report on the trial of the Rev. C. F.
Sherrill, which finds him guilty of
Imprudence and recommends his sus
pension from the ministry for thirty
days . The verdict was unanimous,
and Dr. George H. Detwiler gave no
tice of appeal, which was granted.
Mr. Sherrill will serve the sentence
and take' up work again, the appeal to
be heard at the General Conference
next May.
The verdict was received In silence.
The first day Conference convened
at Hickory Rev, Sherrill, who was
formerly the pastor of the Leaksville
and Madison churches, arose and
stated that rumors affecting his moral
character had been In circulation and
he demanded an Investigation at. the
hands of the Conference.
Bishop Atkins thereupon appointed
a committee to see, after investiga
ting matters, if a trial was neces
sary, and Saturday this committee,
through Rev. J. C. Rowe, reported as
follows: "We tried to. make the in
vestigation careful and prayerful. Had
I the privilege of using my own lan
guage in the case, I would say, we
find atrial 'advisable,' but the Church.'
in a case of this kind, requires me
to usse the word 'neceessary.' "
Rev. J, E. Woosley was appointed
to prosecute the case.wlth Dr.Chrietz
burg, a former pastor of the Main
street church of Reidsvillo, to assist
him.
The following is the committee ap
pointed to defend him: Rev. S.B. Tur
rentine, chairman; Revs. B. Marge
son. R. M. Courtena, W. M. Curtiss,
A, W. Jacobs, Z. Paris, W. A. New
ell, L. A Falls, R. G. Tuttle and E. K. l
McLart. It will be noticed that some
of the members of the commltteee
have had same charges that Presid
ing Elder Sherrill had formerly filled.
As heard from the outside, before
the committee had time to get the
witnesses and decide If the case
needed a tria, it-runs substantially as
follows: There, was a social gather-j
ing at the home of the presiding el
der at Rutherford College, which was
attended by the complainant, a Mrs.
Cherry, and her two grown daughter?.
Mrs. Cherry, tiring "of . the occasion
before her daughters wanted to go
home, was in the act of going, when
some one with whom the lady did not
happen to be acquainW'd, offered to
see her home. Seeing that the visi
tor was embarrassed as to getting
home," Mr. Sherrill offered his ser
vices as escort,' which was accepted
under protest, saying she could go
alone. : The case revolves upon whom
the committee believes, as It Is the
case of only two people, one charging
the other, with not a single witness
to substantiate or deny the charge. 1
Leaving the Sherrill home, the rout
home lay over a bypath to the main
road, or street, which led over rough
ground, down and up a steep decliv
ity, the going up of which is where
the offense was said to have been
committed. Mrs. Cherry claims that
he put his arms around her and made
mention of things he should not.
Mr. Sherrill says he saw her to the
road, and in climbing the steep place,
that instead of taking her by the
he placed his hand or hands on
the back of the lady, rather pushing
her up the hill, at the top of, which
he bade her good night, returning to
his home with never a thought that
he had done wrong or in any way
offended her. -
For him It is well to say that he
denied positively anything improper
and the matter had to . .t.J
tided on the word of one or the oth
er. He was ably represented hi Drs.
Boyer, Marr and Detwiler, while the
prosecution had men able to push the
investigation. Much sympathy is felt
in the Conference for the accused,
who has done excellent work in Mm
Conference since his admission, and
it Is the more regretted for the sake
of the whole Conference, which has
such a fine record as to the charac
ter of its members.
The. beginniug of this case was in
June, 1U8. which was the time the
alleged offence was committed, and
nothing was said, so far as known of
the matter in any way, until October
of that year, when it came to the ear
Of Mr. Sherrill for the first time; and
taking a witness, a brother preacher,
he called upon t ho lady and asked for
a statement, telling her what was be
ing circulated. To this. It is said,
she would make no charge whatever,
rather charging Mr. Sherrill's family
with inattention to her, but now says
that the reason that she would not
charge him then to his face was that
the witness present was a single man
and she would not discuss the matter
in th presence of a young man.
When Conference convened last yeaf
at Aslieville, tlie inatU'r was open tor
a charge, but tlio preachers; of Mr
hhemlls district had a meeting and
heard a plain statement of his side of
the case and signed a paper agreeing
to allow the matter to go unnoticed
All the preachers signed this save one
who was a kinsman of the lady, and
whom it seems was not satisfied w ith
the result of the called meeting, and
wrote to the lady fro a statement of
the case, and he, with others, have
taken her reply to that letter.in which
she wrote the charg-es, and have built
up the case from it to the point
of Mr. Snerrill's demanding an inves
tigation as indicated above.
Dr. Kilgo For Bishop.
It is practically assured that the
Clerical and lay delegates from this
Conference to the General Conference
which meats at Aslieville next May,
will vote unanimously for Dr. J. C.
Kit-o lor bishop, Tho president of
Trinity College captured the Confer
ence by his magnificent and power
ful address Thursday night. His
theme was "Christian Education."
He showed by statistics that a great
majority of men of thought and ac
tion were educated at denominational
institutions. In his discourse he men
tioned Prsidents, Senators, Govern
ors, members of the House of Repre
sentatives, and all in tho class of hon
or and responsibility. Many who heard
the ma stely effort declared it to be
one of the very --strongest' addresses
ever delivered before the Conference.
Dr. Kilgo also submitted a few
practical remarks about Trinity Col
lege and the work It was accomplish
ing at a later session Oi Conference,
and after he had taken his seat Bish
op Atkins arose and endorsed ; wuat
the president of the institution said
about preachers preparing-themselves
for tfie ministry before they entered
it. "I worked along this line long
before Dr. Kilggo came among us,"
declared the bishop. "Yes, but I
have been raising a rucus ever since
I came to North Carolina," Dr. Kilgo
Jocularly remarked.
Supt. Hayes Addressed Conference.
Prof. H. A. Hayes was introduced to
speak of the Children's Home work at
Winston-Salem, of which he is super
intendent. Prof. Hayes said the home
was not made as a matter of pride or
because some other church has one,
but from duty, and what he told of
conditions, hungry.dirty chiklren.with
no homes, was enough to touch a
heart of stone, theso little innocents
affected with vermin and hunger in a
land overflowing with plenty. Turn
ing to the financial side he asked for
a plan of support as definite as the
salary or a preacner, wnicn ui ue
put at an amount equal to ten per
cent, of the preachers' salary. There
are forty-two children In the home
and 12-r) applications on file.
Winston-Salem has been selected as
the place for the next meeing f the
Conference, the voce heing overwhelm
inelv in favor of that point over Hen-
dersonville, the vote later being made
unanimous.
