AGE OLD EFFORT
TO DETERMINE
TRUTH REVIVED
SCOPES TRIAL DRAGS ON AT DAY
TON, TENNESSEE, WITH BUT
LITTLE PROGRESS MADE
DISCUSSION OLD ONE
Case Attracting World Wide Atten
tion on Account of Similarity to
Cases Previously Tried
NEW YORK, July 20 (IP)—The age
j old effort to define truth from theory
I will be revived again today when the
trial of Professor John T. Scopes, the
Tennssee evolutionist, starts grinding
away. The stage is set and the play
ers are on it, but the scenes are laid
in a little backwoods town in east
ern Tennessee. A town nestling in
the Cumberland mountains, where the
people open the day the with prayer
and revive ancient feuds' before the
dew falls at night.
Professor Scopes indictment for
teaching evolution in public schools,
contrary to the statute made and pro
vided by the Tennessee legislature
has precedents which reach far back
into the centuries. In America they
date virtually from Plymouth Rock;
in the world at large, from the dawn
of the Christian era.
The now nationally known case is
recognizably akin to prevailing differ
ences between Modernists and Fun
damentalists which have increased
with the rise of Dr. Emerson Fosdick.
The last actual trial occurred in
Cleveland, Ohio, in 1924, when Wil-!
! liam Montgomery Brown, former Prot-!
estant Episcopal bishop of Arkansas,
was pronounced guilty by a church
holding beliefs at odds with the ac
cepted doctrine of his denomination.
He publicly avowed communism and
so-called atheism.
Noted Trial in New York City
In the ’90’s, Professor Charles A.
Briggs, a Presbyterian seminarian of
New' York City, was charged with
having expressed himself at variance
with the Westminster confession. The
New' York Presbytery dared him, but
the General Assembly of the church
reversed -the decision and pronounced
a verdict of suspension.
Dr. Richard Heber Newton, a New'
York Episcopalian, of the same period,
cut short charges against his broad
churchmanship by demanding a for
mal trial. His demand was met but
his accusers failed to appear.
David Swing of Chicago left the j
Presbyterian faith to preach indepen- j
dently in the '70’s, when those citing
him for alleged heresy refused to
abide by his acquittal at the hands
of the Chicago Presbytery and threat
ened to appeal to the Synod.
Mrs. Sarah B. Cooper, Sunday j
School w'orker, wras halted before the j
Presbyterian authorities in San Fran
cisco about 1870.

Camuel Gorton, religionist, about
1640 was virtually deported to Eng
land because of the unpopularity of
tais temperament and views. He re
urned to America under letter of safe
conduct issued by the Earl of War
wick to the Massachusetts magis
trates. Gorton’s trouble started in
Plymouth Colonel when he came to
the defense of his wife’s servant who
had smiled in church. He suffered
successive banishments from Ply
mouth, Newport, Rhode Island and
Boston. A sect which adopted his
antiniminianism survived him one
hundred years, records show.
