TO REGAIN PROPERTY
H ig h Officiala o f Baptist Church
Expected to Testify nt
Coming T ria l
The suit of the Ashland Baptist
church of this city, against the
F irs t Baptist Church, Inc., of
Ashland, for possession of the
church property, w ill be heard
in circuit court next Monday,
Judge W alter M. Evans , of . Port
land, presiding.
The »alt is a
factional fight between two wings
of the Baptist church, the fflain-
tltts upholding th<$ established
Baptist tenets, and the, defend
ants being followers of the "Almee
McPherson F o u r Square gospel."
In hearings before the state and
county bodies of the Baptist
church, the plaintiffs have been
sustained.
— Th« s u ttw a s filed In Decem
ber 1924. and alleged that "mem
bers of the established Baptist
church, were stricken from' the
membership rolls, defcied admis
sion to the church, and that the
Baptists, Inc., wings ‘ indulged
In unseemly conduet. under what
is called, "H oly Rollerlam."
Last July the plaintiffs seised
the church, and stood guard to
prevent retaking.
The suit has attracted wide at-
terrtton through northwest church
circles, because of the religious
principles Involved, and apron g
witnesses w ill be high Baptist
church officiala to explain the
" ^ la r e t lo n s * fclth ."
The split
spilt in the church, the
suit says, followed in the wake of
a revival meeting held in Ash
land In 1922, by Charras Price,
so-called ‘‘divin» healer.’’______
