absolutely unfounded and that he was
unheldp unanimously, by his entire
congregation. which summarily dis-
missed Miss Parker, and caused fie:
name to be stricken from the books
of the parish. .
Miss Parker, however, alleges that
April 7th. that the Rev. Mr. Shield
publicly denounced Miss Lulu Paikei
H‘ as a “notorious liar, possessing a jail
record: and as being ‘no good,’ Ea
common woman running about with
.lell'i‘lt’d men." He is claimed to have
said the neWSpapeis would corrobor-
Eate him. Rev; Mr. Shields today do
nied he had called MissEPnrkei these
undesirable names, and he states he
has witnesses to prove he never utv
tored the words. Miss Parker, also,
has a number of witnesses, and they
are named in themril as; Samuel
Reed, Mrs. Marie‘Roblnson, Mrs. Re—
bekah Taner, Prince Albert Robinson
and band Tuner.
The conduct with which the Rev
Mr. Lonzo and Rev. Mr‘. Shields are
charged by Miss Parker is very un-
minisleriai, to say the least. Accord-
ing to the story told‘ at the meeting
of~the elders and to Attorney. Cuneo,
Miss Parker, during the middle of
February last, received a written in-
vltatlon to attend a “party" in Slam-
ford. It is said she first claimed Mr.
Shields had telephoned her to accom
pany him to a Stamford theater“ but
it was finally settled by Mlssl’ar—
her that she‘received a letter.
The invitation was accepted. and
Miss EPnrker was accompanied to the
basement of the Colored Methodist
Mission, in Stamford, by Miss Bella
E Browden.
Miss Parker states her
amusement: “1 sheet when she saw
these was no i‘iih'uti'" W year and
' that the only people present- were the
two ministers, Rev Mr lions and
Mr.- Shields; Miss Browden and her-
gin and beer. ,
Miss Parker, according to her story,
indignantly' demanded to be released,
that she might go home. This request
was very politely, but very firmly re-
fused. it is said she was persuaded
to join the others in drinking, but‘
were locked and the elecerjc lights
in the basement ware extinguished.
The plaintiff alleges that attentions
were paid by the local minister to
Miss Browden. while the Rev. ‘Mr.
Lonzo tried to embrace and; kiss her,
using his effort. to overcome her ob-
jections to enter lnto the spirit "of
the "party,” but was persistently
fought against by Miss Parker.

The Parker girl Was accompanied
to the Stamford railroad station by
Miss Browden, who earnestly pleaded
with her not to say anything to either
cerning the matter. To this Miss Par-
‘ker consented, but her alleged treat-.
ment at the‘hands of the two minis~
tors she considered of sufficient ser-
iousness to report to the elders of thr

time Rev.‘Mr. Shields was one, .of

church against the minister. With
this Miss Parker allied herself. and
