The bride-elect is an by the serving of tea and the social entertaining for interesting visitors. Mrs. William MacMaster, chairman of the social features, had arranged all details in a charming way. Those who served at the. tea tables in the afternoon were: Mrs. J. B.

Mrs. George Kevins, Mrs. charge of Red Cross motor corps work man Mr. K olmd. Mr. o.onre during the war and who is active in Mcpherson and Mrs. Graham Glass. As patriotic and philanthropic work and . sisted by Mrs. Mary Scarborough, Mrs. Witnesses for the defense will take the stand this morning, it was ex pected, in the suit of Episcopal school trustees, diocese of Oregon, against Dr. A. A. Morrison. Charles E. Coch ran, attorney for the prosecution, said at the close of yesterday's afternoon session he felt sure he would close his case formally this morning, but asked the opportunity to put on more witnesses If a study of his notes overnight disclosed such need. Bishop Sumner asked Dr. Morrison what he paid for the Bland Herring property, which trasaction forms tb basis of the cult against Dr. Mor rison, according to the evidence in troduced yesterday. Answer Declared Denied. Dr. Morrison is alleged to have re plied It was none of the bishop's af fair nor none of the board of trustees' business. This was information con tained in a so-called secret docu ment that held in a general way the basic reasons for the action brought in court. It was introduced in evi dence, signed by Bishop Sumner. John E. H. SimDson. C. N. Huggins and J. W. Cartons. It was believed desir- able to keep this cause of action statement separate from the minutes of board meetings because it was ex pected. It was said, the matter would be cleared up ' :n a reasonable time. Bishop Sumner w s said to have re neated hl Question, but an answer was denied. Then, according to this document, Identified bv Mr. Ganone. Bishop Sumner asked where the 60 acres of walnut trees were that, according to the. contract of the Walnut Grove rnmnanv with the school trustees. nhnulri have been planted and main tained uDon the tract sold to the church. Matter Left to Partner. Dr. Morrison is alleged to nave re plied he had left that matter In the hands of his partner, j. morgan and the latter had. apparently, not done his dutv. "But you personally guaranteed the planting of 60 acres of walnut trees and their care until tney reacnea bearing age," said Bishop Sumner, according to the memorandum. Dr. Morrison is alleged to have re plied that he supposed he had done so. Moreover, he had felt for a long time that the board of trustees had rot had an entirely square deal in the transaction and that it was not getting enough land for the money it was paying. He did not feel right about it at the time, but could not himself control the situation. When he got his affairs in shape, it was related, he felt he might give the board more ' land or in some other way adjust matters to the mutual sat isfaciton of the board members and himself. Land Reported Divided. C. N. Huggins. secretary of the board of directors, testified that the document set forth, as above, the meat of the conversation between Dr. Morrison and Bishop Sumner at the board meeting on May 12, 1915, and that then the tract of 60. acres sup posedly planted to walnuts was grow ing oats. It was testified that the final dis position of the land involved in the deal now complained of resulted in a 60-50 split between Dr. Morrison ana his partner. E. E. Morgan, whereby each got about 379 acres, the school trustees being left out of this appor tionment. Another confidential report, made ; at a board meeting in May. 1917, fig ured in the case yesterday. Dan Malarkey, of counsel for Dr. Morri- son, asked that this, which was a sort of preliminary statement of causes for the suit against Dr. Morrison, be i'-'-z: produced in the suit. Charles E. j "i. . Cochran, for the plaintiffs, said he :tiJ' did not have this report, of a highly S V - confidential nature, and if he did have it would not produce it. i-'.-i V Mr. HoKKins Questioned. f ' C. N. Huggins. when testifying, y' said this report was not filed with ' ' him as secretary and that he had made no effort to obtain it for pur- ; poses of the present litigation. Attorney Malarkey asked some di rect questions of Secretary Huggins yesterday afternoon. "You know that Bishop Sumner de manded that Dr. Morrison resign as the price of dismissing this suit, don't you?" "No," said Mr. Huggins, "I do not.' "Bishop Sumner is a rather cocky young fellow himself, isn't he?" As to that the witness did not go on record positively. In the morning session J. W. Ganong, on the witness stand for the prosecution, undergoing cross-examl cation by the defense, admitted he had, in a conversation with J. B. Kerr and W. C. Alvord, vestrymen of Trin ity Episcopal church, intimated that if Dr. Morrison would resign as rec tor of Trinity, the present suit against him would be dropped. Resignation Reported Wanted. These two vestrymen, it was said. alarmed at charges brought against Dr. Morrison, had gone to Mr. Canong, a school trustee,' and asked what i was all about. He was alleged to have told them, with some show of authority, that Dr Morrison's resig nation was more desired than a financial recompense to the school trustees. Attorney Malarkey asked Mr. Hug gins if he were under the domina tion of Dr. Morrison In acting on this land deal. He replied that he was not. Was he under the domina tion of Bishop Scadding? Not that he knew of. "What do you mean, then. Mr. Hug gins," asked the attorney, "in sign ing this complaint in which it is set forth that the board of trustees was under the domination and influence of Dr. Morrison and those associated with him and relied upon his state ment; in making this deal?" popular socially.
