Released Monticello School Teacher for Moral Deficiency.
Francesville Tribune. B. H. Emory, who was principal of the local high school last year, was uncerimoniously fired at Monticello after teaching one week. According to the Monticello papers he needs a “thorough course in morals before undertaking to teach in a civilized community.” Before the close of his school term here it became generally known that he was mighty short on several things and it eventually turned out that he was not only a pious fraud but also a professional “dead beat/’ and his creditors are still waiting for him to pay back various sums of borrowed money. His credentials from Indiana University are said to be forgeries and judging from these reports it will not be very long until the young man will be on the “inside looking out.”
