Abstract

At the church trial in October 1884, Ella Gould testified at length about her husband's liaisons with their servants throughout his several Kentucky pastorates and his years at Millersburg. She gave graphic accounts of his bouts of drunkenness and violent behavior. Correspondence between George and Texie was unearthed. Faculty testified to his abuse of drink and a member of Texie's family testified to his inordinate interest in her. Hearsay evidence was admitted, even a letter reconstructed from memory. George admitted that his marriage was not a happy one but argued that he loved Texie in the same way that he loved all his students. After a week of testimony, the committee hearing the case ruled him guilty of having separated from his wife and of drinking whiskey. He was suspended from his ministerial functions.
秃鹫聚集
在1884年10月的教会审判中,埃拉·古尔德详细地作证说,她的丈夫在肯塔基州的几次牧师生涯和在米勒斯堡的岁月里,与他们的仆人有过关系。她绘声绘色地描述了他的几次醉酒和暴力行为。乔治和特西之间的通信被发现了。教职员工证实他酗酒,泰西的一位家人证实他对她有过度的兴趣。道听途说的证据被接受了,甚至是根据记忆重建的一封信。乔治承认他的婚姻并不幸福,但他说他爱特西就像爱他所有的学生一样。经过一个星期的证词,审理此案的委员会裁定他与妻子分居和喝威士忌罪名成立。他被暂停了部长职务。
