“CLERIC WHO OBEYED HIS CONSCIENCE”
Duke of Windsor’s Marriage
(Received July 23, 7 p.m.) Baltimore, July 22. Lecturing for the first time in the United States, the Rev. Anderson Jardine said the Duke of Windsor was driven from the Throne by an ecclesiastic, the Archbishop of Canterbury, and a grandmotherly person called Baldwin. “Future generations will read of an Archbishop who cursed instead of praying,” he said, “of a shrieking, demented priesthood and one little cleric who obeyed his conscience and gave the exiled King-Emperor God’s blessing. “History will vindicate what was done in England, sealed in France and worked out in a chaotic, hate-driven world.” “I believe the Duke of Windsor is too big for one nation or empire. The world needs him. He is the only man capable of steering the nations to peace.” The audience of 500 was apathetic.
