Bishop Faces Clergy Trial Over Spies and Spiteful Charges
In Philadelphia the Diocese of Pennsylvania convened an ecclesiastical court to try Rev. George Chalmers Richmond, rector of St. John's, on charges including indecorum and breach of ordination vows. Richmond accused Bishop Rhinelander of sending ecclesiastical spies and attacked former Vestry member Charles Brown, while citing an alleged $12,000 extortion attempt by the late Bishop Mackey-Smith as part of the case. He welcomes the trial as a test of his vow of truthful preaching.
