THE ARCHDEACON'S APPEAL.

COMMENTS OF THE "TIMES."

It is long since à law case which was not a murder trial has excited such general interest as that of Archdeacon Wakeford, whose appeal against & con viction by the Consistory Court of Fin coln for immoral conduct was dismissed By the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, says the Tim. The Inquiry of the Board composed of the Lord Chan- cellor and Lords Buckmaster, Dunedin, and Shaw, with the Bishops of London. Gloucester, Rochester, and Ely at Eocio- siastical Assessors, must have been a difficult and anxious task. The reputa tion and, indeed, the livelihood of a clerio who held an office of diguity in the Church of England were at htake, and their Lordships had to determine who.. ther the evidenes justified his depriva tion of religious functions and his ostracism from decent society. The truth or the falsity of the accusation, from the very nature of the offence and the cir cumstances in which it was alleged to have been committed, might have seemed at first sight easy to establish. But as the hearing of the appeal proceeded an extraordinary conflict of evidence was

many parts of the country as a preacher Friday, June 10th, of power and eloquence, and as arduous and capable worker in the Church was placed by the proceedings in jeopardy of all but his life. Therefore, the result of his appeal was awaited with unaal excitement and curiosity. The indictment-using the word in an antechnical sense accused the appellant of misconduct with an unknown woman

on two occasions at the Bull Hotel, Peterborough. In view of the conse- quences of a conviction the Lord Chan- cellors rightly said that the investiga

tions should be conducted with all the Saturday, June 11th, strictness of a criminal prosecution. On that account many, will approach a con- sideration of the evidence with the question in their minds whether a jury would have been entitled to and a ver- diet of "Guilty on such testimony in a capital charge.

The evidence for the prosecution is well described in the judgment as a mosaic of statements made by a great number of persons, each of whom can only speak of particular moments and of particular instances? The defence was that of conspiracy and mistake. The Archdeacon apparently had incurred the

also who could not have been interested Long way or another, had been suborned, The Board found that there was no evi- dence of, porruption to maintain the defence of conspiracy. Again, nothing short of very skilful forgery could account, in the view of their Lordships, for the entry in the visitors' book at

the Bull Hotel on the occasion of the Archdeacon's second visit in April. The appellant himself said that the words and wife" resembled his handwriting, very didsely."

So much for the prosecution. What led the public to suspension of judgment and to surmise upon the rault of the appeal was the number of witnesses who up- peared in favour of the appellant. It was said by a waitress in the hotel that the Archdeacon, asked the woman who was with him to take her left hand off the dining-table because she was not wearing a wedding ring, yet a witness swore that words to that effect were ad- dressed by him jocularly to his wife. Many other witnesses were called to corroborate the defence to a charge of delinquency, which, in the words used in the judgment, was lacking alike in cunning and in contrivance." There was a heavy improbability to be des troyed, because, as Sir Edward Carson anid for his client, it was almost neces sary to belief in the charge to contem- plate madness in a man who when he was bent upon immorality, went in his clerical garments in the broad light of day with a woman to a large and crowd- éd hotel in a cathedral town: Add to that the fact that eight witnesses, most of them farmers or horsebreeders who were staying at the Bull Hotel in March 1920, during a horse fair, all swore that they saw the Archdeacon alone in the public dining-room, and alone in the public breakfast-roon, at the very times when the witnesses on the other side said that he was "accompanied by a woman, Although it was conceded that the memory of some witnesses, might have undergone a process of accretion; the Board came to the conclusion that there could have boen no motivę "behind the bulk of the evidence for the prose cution which could, even unconsciously,

deflect the desire to deal honestly with. the Court" The appeal must have been a matter of as much solicitude to the Judicial Committee, of the Privy Council Eg of doubt to the public, who, like the Lord Chancellor, were persuaded that, the hearing needed that scrupulona caution which is expected in a trial on the graves criminal charge.

PERILOUS X-RAYS.

Hitherto unauspected dangers of X- rays were told to members of the Academy of Science, Paris, on April 19th.

Professor Lipmaan, who

gare the lecture, proved that there is considerable danger to people living above or parallel to radiographic institutes Specially. constructed shelters do not allay the danger, because the rays can penetrate walls and coiling to a depth of about six- teen inches and cause grave injuries

Experimente bave been made with leaden screens, and the professor says that it is most important that all walls and ceilings in radiographic institute should be so protested.
