Evening Republican, Volume 21, Number 141, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 30 June 1917 — Trouble Reported In Wolcott Church. [ARTICLE]

Trouble Reported In Wolcott Church.

Monticello Journal. The report comes from Wolcott that the pastor of the Baptist church at that place, Rev. Fuller, has been requested to hand in his resignation. The report has it that the congregation has been in quite a turmoil for several days, due to alleged indiscreet conduct on the part of the minister. He has been the pastor of the Wolcott church for some months. During the Mexican trouble Rev. Fuller was chaplain of one of the Indiana regiments located on the border. Charles Greenlee, formerly a merchant at Parr but now living at Yeoman, Ind., came to Rensselaer this morning.

Squire C. W. Bussell, of Hanging Grove township, went to Hammond today to visit his sons, Elvyn and Wilson. Elvyn is working in Chicago but will come down to Hammond over Sunday. While there Mr. Bussell will shoot on the government range. The Squire has long been oen of the best shots in the country and during his younger days the object of his aim fairly got away. Only last winter Mr. Bussell shot a big wolf in Hanging Grove township, and perhaps he can show some of Uncle Sam’s men how to handle a gun on the range, too.
