RECTOR OF STIFFKEY
CONDUCT TOWARDS GIRLS CASE FOR TflE DEFENCE LONDON, May 19. Mr. Levey, in opening the defence of Davidson, rector of Stiffkey, said that Davidson deemed it his duty to conduct prevention rather than rescue work among young girls in London. Gwendoline Harris was the only one ot a legion he had helped who had bit the hand that fed her. He often gave girls his bed and walked the streets Uli night. Admittedly, hie habit of kissing girls and women on the cheeks and forehead was stupid and might lead to suspicion. He was certainly a troublesome busybody and annoyed the waitress, Dorothy Burns, and hundreds of others, but he did not make improper suggestions. Tho case was adjourned.
