FALSE DOCTRINE CHARGE
CLERGYMAN ASKS FOR NEW TRIAL Press Association —By Telegraph—Copyright MELBOURNE, January 26. (Received January 27, at 1.30 a.m.) The Rev. Mr Hayes has asked for a new trial. It is understood that it will be probably a week before Archbishop Head reaches a decision in regard to the application. [A message received on December 24 stated: —The Rev. H. E. Hayes has been found guilty by the Ecclesiastical Court of charges of false doctrine and conduct “ disgraceful to a clergyman and productive of scandal and evil report.” The court calls upon him to resign before January 20, otherwise he will be removed from his parish. The court’s finding has been delivered to Archbishop Head, who may exercise perogative of mercy by reducing the penalty. His decision is expected in a fortnight. Mr Hayes is reported to have instructed his solicitors to lodge an appeal.]
