Laws relating to Church matters are scattered through such a vast +array of law books that it would be a burden for a clergyman to purchase +them, and without special training he would not know where to look for the +law. Therefore a law compendium covering those subjects relating to Church +matters must be of great value to a clergyman. + +There is another view of this subject. When she was mistress of the world +the laws of the Roman Empire were for the Roman citizens, particularly the +patricians; the canon law was the law of the Christian people of conquered +countries and the Christian plebeians of Rome. In the United States we +have the same common law for the President and the hod-carrier, for the +multimillionaire and the penniless orphan, for the clergy and the laity. +Consequently, in this practical age a knowledge of the law of the country +with which the clergy come constantly in contact is expedient, if not +necessary. + +The poet says: + + + “What constitutes a state?... + Men, who their duties know, + But know their rights, and knowing, dare maintain.” + + +To insure harmony and good order, every Church should obey the laws of the +country; but if any law should impose upon the rights of the Church in any +way, the ruling authorities, the cardinal and bishops, if the wrong is +national, should unite in a petition to the United States Congress, +clearly stating the grievance and asking for its redress.(1) If the +grievance should be within a State, the bishop or bishops of the State +should present the matter to the Legislature of the State. If the +President or the Governor has authority to remedy the matter, go direct to +him. Such was the practice of the wisest of the Popes.(2) The author never +knew of an instance in which a clergyman having a real grievance failed in +obtaining a full and fair hearing from the powers that be, from the +President downward. This method seems to be more in harmony with the +relations of Church and State in a free government, and more intelligent +than to have a convention of working men, who have little time to make a +study of Church matters, pass resolutions, the passing of which generally +ends the action of a convention. + +In the chapters that follow, the author has refrained from giving a great +multitude of authorities, but has endeavored to give such as are +sufficient to sustain the text. For example, under the first section, and +many others, a list of citations covering several pages might be given. +That would add to the expense of the volume and would not be within its +compass. The book will better fulfil its purpose by clear, brief +statements of the rules of law, and if a reader desires to investigate +further, the citations given will guide his way. + +CHARLES M. SCANLAN. + +MILWAUKEE, JANUARY 23, 1909. + + + + + +CHAPTER I. INTRODUCTION + + +*1.* _Law, Religion._—From the dawn of the science of law it has been +influenced by religion or antagonism to religion. This is very evident in +the ancient laws of Babylonia, Egypt, Phenicia, Israel, India, and +Ireland. It would be impossible to make a study of the law of any of said +countries without gaining a knowledge of its religious system, whether +pagan or otherwise.(3) + +*2.* _Religions._—Ancient nations might be classified into pagan and those +that worshiped the universal God. However, some of the nations at one time +were pagan and at other times had a fair conception of the supernatural. +Also, in Egypt, the class of higher culture and education believed in the +one omnipotent and omniscient Being, but the populace, who could be +controlled more readily by flattering them in their notions and giving +their childish conceptions full sway, worshiped idols.(4) + +*3.* _Authority, Right._—In those nations where the ruling authority had +the proper conception of the Almighty, there was a strong, persistent +growth of law upon the basis of natural right; while in the pagan nations +laws were arbitrary and despotic.(5) + +*4.* _Philosophical Foundations._—The laws of Greece, down to the time of +Plato, were thoroughly pagan. But, following the philosophical foundations +laid by Plato and Aristotle, unintentionally and unwittingly the laws of +Greece became imbued with the spirit of natural law.(6) + +*5.* _Rome, Natural Justice._—Prior to the introduction of Grecian law +into Rome, the laws of that nation were pagan. Grecian law from its +introduction to the time of Octavius was the civilizing element of the +empire. Then it took a turn for the worse, the element of natural justice +being reduced and the element of arbitrary rule becoming dominant.(7) + +*6.* _Canon Law._—We will now turn to the first period of canon law, which +covers the early history of the Church up to the reign of Constantine the +Great.(8) + +Canon law is composed of the following elements: + + + 1. Holy Scriptures; + 2. Ecclesiastical tradition; + 3. Decrees of Councils; + 4. Bulls and rescripts of Popes; + 5. The writings of the Fathers; + 6. Civil law.(9) + + +*7.* _Early Christians._—Owing to the persecutions, the early Christians +were, in a sense, isolated from the State; they held their property in +common, and were governed in matters among themselves by the canon law. +However, for want of freedom of discussion and publication, they were +unable, even within a single nation of the empire, to promulgate a system +of canon law. The foundation of canon law being laid, its development upon +the manumission of the Church was rapid.(10) + +*8.* _Persecutions, Defenses._—During the religious persecutions the +Christians almost had law forced into them by surgical operations. The +necessity for their making defenses in the Roman tribunals induced many of +them to give Roman law a careful study. Also, the great number of +Christians held for trial on all sorts of accusations made that branch of +the law of the realm very lucrative for lawyers, and called into the field +many Christians. Incidently, men studying for the priesthood made a study +of Roman law with a view to avoiding its machinations and continuing their +functions as clergymen without being caught in the net of persecution.(11) + +*9.* _Constantine, Blending the Law._—When Emperor Constantine became a +Christian (325 A.D.), there was a great change, and the members of the bar +and judges were mostly Christians. It then became necessary for students +of law to study the principles of divine right as taught in the Church, +and while the books of the civil law were read by students for the +priesthood, the Scriptures and the works of the Fathers were read by the +students in law, thus blending the law of the two realms to some +extent.(12) + +*10.* _“__Benefit of the Clergy,__”__ Ecclesiastical Court._—As the old +Roman Empire decayed and its power waned, the new one, “The Holy Roman +Empire,” gradually implanted itself in southwestern Europe. The +humiliation that the divine law and the clergy suffered in being brought +into the common courts gave rise to a system of courts within the Church +for the purpose of enforcing her morals, doctrines, and discipline. Those +courts were established in all Christian countries and had jurisdiction of +all felonies excepting arson, treason, and a few other crimes that from +time to time were put under the special jurisdiction of the state courts. +Whenever a clergyman was arrested for a crime, he pleaded the “benefit of +the clergy,” and his case was transferred from the state court to the +ecclesiastical court. Also, when a clergyman was convicted in the state +court of any crime for which the punishment was death, he could plead the +“benefit of the clergy,” which was a protection against his execution.(13) + +*11.* _Estates, Guardianship._—Besides the jurisdiction already referred +to, the ecclesiastical court had jurisdiction over the settlement of +estates and the guardianship of children, which varied in different +countries and was very indefinite in some of them.(14) + +*12.* _Middle Ages, Common Law._—During the Middle Ages there was a +constant effort on behalf of the ecclesiastical courts to extend their +jurisdiction, and a counter-effort on behalf of the state courts to assume +jurisdiction of cases under the ecclesiastical law. In England, from the +conquest of William the Conqueror to the Reformation, the extension of the +jurisdiction of the ecclesiastical courts brought the new element of +English common law into the canon law; and much of the canon law, +following the jurisdiction assumed by the state courts, became the common +law of the kingdom of England.(15) + +*13.* _Gratian, Reformation._—The canon law reached its full development +in the twelfth century, when Gratian, the Blackstone of his age, compiled +the system, but it subsequently lost its influence when the Reformation +prevailed.(16) + +*14.* _Bologna._—The great school of jurisprudence, both of canon and +civil law, was located at Bologna, Italy, which reached its zenith in the +thirteenth century. To it students flocked from Western Europe, and from +it were obtained the professors of law in the universities of England and +other countries.(17) + +*15.* _Church and State._—In most of the Christian countries, the Church +and State were united, and many of the judges in the civil courts were +clergymen.(18) + +*16.* _England, Roman Law._—On account of England’s being subject to Rome +in its earliest age, and afterward because of its being conquered by +France, the Roman law was pretty thoroughly intermixed with the native +English law in the minor matters of the people, and governed in the more +important ones.(19) + +*17.* _America, English Law, Civil Law._—The portions of America that were +settled by the English, which included the original thirteen colonies, +were under the English law. In Virginia the Episcopal Church, which was +then the church of England, was made the church of state. Canada and that +portion of the United States formerly known as Louisiana were governed by +the civil law of France. Wherever the French government had no authority +or civil officers, the government was directly under the missionaries of +the Church.(20) + +*18.* _Religious Tolerance, Established Church._—The English law and +English ideals prevailing in the original thirteen colonies,(21) there was +a strong effort made by many of the delegates to the constitutional +convention to have the Episcopal Church made the established church of the +new republic. Thomas Jefferson and James Madison were probably the +strongest opponents of the scheme, and outside of the great Carroll of +Carrollton, they were the most earnest advocates of religious tolerance. +The necessity for the fathers of this republic to be united, and their +being unable to unite upon any church, caused the idea of an established +church to be eliminated. Thus was established in our republic the freedom +of conscience and the guarantee that no one shall be persecuted on account +of his religious convictions.(22) + +*19.* _Tribunals._—The ecclesiastical courts as a part of the state system +and the “benefit of the clergy,” have been abolished in England and +America. However, as we shall see further on, tribunals in the nature of +the ecclesiastical court exist in churches and fraternities of all kinds +in the United States.(23) + + + + + +CHAPTER II. WHAT IS A CHURCH? + + +*20.* _Church, Religious Society._—Bouvier’s definition of “Church” is: “A +society of persons who profess the Christian religion.” Chief Justice +Shaw’s definition is: “The church is neither a corporation nor a +quasi-corporation, but a body of persons associated together for certain +objects under the law. An aggregate body of individuals associated +together in connection with a religious society. The term religious +society may with propriety be applied in a certain sense to a church as +that of religious association, religious union, or the like; yet in the +sense church was and is used in our law, it is synonymous with parish or +precinct and designates an incorporated society created and maintained for +the support and maintenance of public worship. In this, its legal sense, a +church is not a religious society. It is a separate body formed within +such parish or religious society whose rights and usages are well known +and to a great extent defined and established by law.”(24) + +*21.* _Doctrine, Constitution._—A church in law is a mere fraternal +organization. It may or may not have a written constitution, but it must +have some central doctrine as its foundation or constitution.(25) Many of +the Protestant denominations claim that the entire Bible is their +constitution. The Jews may be said to consider the Old Testament as their +constitution. All revealed truths may be said to be the constitution of +the Catholic Church,(26) and when a doctrine concerning faith or morals is +authoritatively declared by the Church to be a truth, it becomes a +dogma.(27) The Apostles’ Creed is an example of several dogmatic truths. +The code of the Church is the Ten Commandments. A few sects, by a majority +vote, make and change their constitutions at will. + +*22.* _By-Laws._—By-laws of the different religious organizations differ +widely, from the decrees of the great councils of the Catholic Church down +to the vote of the congregation of an independent denomination. + +*23.* _Church, Religious Society._—A church in one sense is more limited +than a religious society; the latter comprehending all the members of the +same faith. Even in the Catholic Church we hear of the Church of France, +the Coptic Church, etc., spoken of in this sense. And in a still more +limited sense we use the word as a synonym for parish. However, when the +word “the” is used before church written with a capital letter, Catholics +understand it to apply to the Roman Catholic Church in its entirety, while +some non-Catholics apply it to Christendom. + +*24.* _Church, Christians, Religion._—The missions established in +California prior to its admission into the Union were, in law, practically +independent organizations and had no legal connection with the Church. +Every society organized for the purpose of propagating the practice of +religion may be a church in law.(28) The courts have made a distinction +between Unitarians, who are considered Christians, and Deists, Theists, +Free Religionists, and other infidels.(29) A sect or denomination without +a given system of faith is not recognized as a religion in law.(30) + +*25.* _Doctrine, Standard._—To ascertain the tenets and doctrines of a +church, resort must be had to history and to prior and contemporary +standard writings of its members on theology.(31) + +*26.* _Ecclesiastical Corporations, Religious, Quasi-public +Corporations._—Ecclesiastical corporations, in the sense in which the word +is used in England, Germany, and France, are unknown to the United States, +their places being supplied by religious societies or corporations +considered as private bodies, in contradistinction to public or +quasi-public corporations, such as towns, villages, cities, counties, and +state. Therefore, the law of private corporations applies to religious +societies and churches. + +*27.* _Sect, Sectarianism._—The Supreme Court of Nevada defines “sect” as +follows: “A religious sect is a body or number of persons united in +tenets, but constituting a distinct organization or party, by holding +sentiments or doctrines different from those of other sects or people. In +the sense intended in the constitution, every sect of that character is +‘sectarian’ and all members thereof are sectarians.”(32) In Pennsylvania +the court adopted the definitions given in the Standard and in Webster’s +dictionaries.(33) The Supreme Court of Missouri, citing Webster’s and the +Century dictionaries, gave the following additional definition of +sectarianism: “Sectarianism includes adherence to a distinct political +party, as much as to a separate sect.”(34) The Presbyterians(35) and the +“Shakers”(36) have been adjudged sects. + +*28.* _Sectarian._—“Sectarian” has received more contradictory +constructions than any other equally simple word in the English language. +In Wisconsin the “King James” Bible was held to be a sectarian book;(37) +but in Kentucky it was held that neither the Douay nor the “King James” +Bible was a sectarian book.(38) The Missouri court extended sectarian so +as to apply to the Republican party.(39) In Illinois an industrial school +for girls in which the Catholic Sisters were employed as teachers, was +held a sectarian institution;(40) while in Wisconsin, the “Wisconsin +Industrial School for Girls,” a private corporation organized and +conducted by Protestant ladies, has received appropriations from the State +and has had its reports published at state’s expense, as a non-sectarian +institution.(41) In New York the religious garb of the Catholic Sisters +was practically decided to be sectarian;(42) but in Pennsylvania and +Wisconsin it was decided that the dress of the Sisters was not +sectarian.(43) + +*29.* _Worship, Services, Mass._—Any act of adoration, reverence, praise, +thanks, honor, or veneration given to God, is religious worship.(44) A +Sunday-school where the Bible was read and a hymn sung and a state +temperance camp-meeting where a prayer was said and hymns were sung, were +held to be places of divine worship.(45) But a priest’s house where he had +a room fitted up for a chapel, was held to be not a place of worship.(46) +It is very difficult to draw a line—no matter what curves you may give +it—between the Protestant system of worship, which consists of the reading +of the Bible, the singing of hymns, and the reciting of prayers, and such +services in the public schools. Also, there would seem to be no _legal_ +difference between a prayer said or a hymn sung by a Catholic and a +Protestant. As we have no established church in this country, we have no +standard for prayers, hymns, or music.(47) + +More solemn and impressive than her prayers adapted for schools is the +Mass of the Catholic Church, defined thus: “The Mass is the unbloody +sacrifice of the body and blood of Christ.”(48) It is defined in 26 Cyc, +940, as follows: “A religious ceremonial or observance of the Catholic +Church;(49) a Catholic ceremonial celebrated by the priest in open church, +where all who choose may be present and participate therein;(50) the +sacrifice in the sacrament of the Eucharist or the consecration and +oblation of the Host.”(51) + +*30.* _Parish._—A parish has two meanings. In some States it is a minor +division of public territory; but in States where there is no such +division of territory, the State using instead “county” or “town,” a +parish rather applies to the people belonging to a particular church, who +worship at a particular place. It is in the latter sense in which a parish +should be construed in church law.(52) + +_Parishioner._—A parishioner must be defined in harmony with the meaning +of the word “parish.”(53) + +*31.* _Clergyman._—A clergyman is a man in holy orders or one who has been +ordained in accordance with the rules of his church or denomination.(54) + +*32.* _Minister._—A minister is one who acts as, or performs some of the +functions of, a clergyman.(55) + +*33.* _Rector or Pastor._—A rector or pastor is a clergyman who has charge +of a parish.(56) + +*34.* _Religion._—Religion is still further distinguished, but not very +satisfactorily defined, for the reason that etymologists have not agreed +upon the derivation of the word. When the matter was brought before our +courts and it became necessary to give a definition, the highest court in +our country gave the following: “The term ‘religion’ has reference to +one’s views of his relations to his Creator, and to the obligations they +impose of reverence for His being and character, and of obedience to His +will. It is often confounded with _cultus_ or form of worship of a +particular sect, but it is distinguishable from the latter.”(57) One of +our highest courts held that “religion,” as used in the trust provision in +a will for the purchase and distribution of religious books or reading as +they shall be deemed best, means “Christian.”(58) But the Supreme Court of +another State held that “religion” is not equivalent to “Christian” +religion, but means the religion of any class of men.(59) Judge Willis +defines “religion” thus: “It is what a man honestly believes in and +approves of and thinks it his duty to inculcate on others whether with +regard to this world or the next; a belief in any system of retribution by +an overruling power. It must, I think, include the principle of gratitude +to an active power who can confer blessings.”(60) + + + + + +CHAPTER III. CONSTITUTIONAL LAW + + +*35.* _Religious Tests._—The constitution of the United States provides +that “no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any +office or public trust under the United States.”(61) + +*36.* _Test Oath, Attainder._—No test oath of any kind, whether religious +or otherwise, can be required of a citizen of the United States. Therefore +the test oath of Congress requiring an officer to swear that he never +voluntarily bore arms against the United States, was held +unconstitutional. Exclusion from any vocation on account of past conduct +is punishment and contrary to the constitution on the subject of bills of +attainder.(62) But there is a limitation to this rule to prevent the open +violation of the laws of the United States or any State under the cloak of +religion.(63) + +*37.* _Establishment of Religion, Free Exercise._—The first amendment to +the United States constitution provides that “Congress shall make no law +respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise +thereof.” + +*38.* _Sovereignty, States, Bigamy._—The courts have held that this +provision applies to Congress only, and can not be construed to interfere +with the sovereignty of the several States; that the constitutional +guarantee of religious freedom was not intended to prohibit legislation +against polygamy; and that section 5352 of the United States Revised +Statutes against bigamy, is constitutional. Also, that on a trial for +bigamy in Utah, a man who was living in polygamy was not competent to +serve as a juror.(64) + +*39.* _Church of the Latter-Day Saints._—In 1851 the assembly of the +so-called State of Deseret, which subsequently became the territory of +Utah, incorporated “the Church of the Latter-Day Saints.” In 1887 Congress +repealed the act of incorporation and abrogated the charter, which the +Supreme Court held was within its plenary powers. The pretense of +religious belief can not deprive Congress of the power to prohibit +polygamy and all other open offenses against the enlightened sentiments of +mankind.(65) + +*40.* _Crime, Religion._—The law prohibiting any person who is a +polygamist or bigamist, or who teaches, advises, counsels, or encourages +the same, from holding any office of honor, trust, or profit, is +constitutional; and a crime is none the less so, nor less odious, because +it is sanctioned by what any particular sect may designate as religion. A +state has the right to legislate for the punishment of all acts inimical +to the peace, good order, and morals of society.(66) + +*41.* _Donation, Hostile, Religion._—On the other hand the United States +Supreme Court declared the legal right of donees of a college to make as a +condition of the donation that all ecclesiastics, missionaries, and +ministers of any sort, should be excluded from holding any station of duty +in the college or even visiting the same. The condition being only +negatively derogatory and hostile to the Christian religion, did not make +the devise for the foundation of the college void.(67) + +*42.* _Christian Scientist._—A law requiring a person to be a physician to +treat the sick, is constitutional; and the defense of a person who has no +license to practise, that he is a Christian Scientist, is not good. Also, +a parent must furnish a doctor for his sick child, notwithstanding that he +believes in prayer cure.(68) + +*43.* _Protestant._—In the early days, under the constitution of the +State, the courts of Massachusetts practically held that the Protestant +religion was the religion of that State.(69) Also, the constitution of New +Hampshire referred to different Christians, and the court in construing +the terms “Roman Catholic” and “Protestant,” held that any one who did not +assent to the truth of Christianity as a distinct system of religion, +could not be classed as either. The court stated that Mohammedans, Jews, +pagans, and infidels, are neither “Catholics” nor “Protestants.” The term +“Protestant,” as used in the constitution of New Hampshire, includes all +Christians who deny the authority of the Pope of Rome. When the children +of Protestant parents renounce that religion, and voluntarily accept +another, they cease to be Protestants.(70) At present under the +constitution of New Hampshire, the legislature may authorize towns or +parishes to provide for the support of Protestant ministers.(71) + +*44.* _Hospitals, Sisters, Appropriation._—In 1864, Providence Hospital, +of Washington, was incorporated by an act of Congress, for general +hospital purposes. In 1897, $30,000 was appropriated for the District of +Columbia to put up two isolation buildings in connection with two +hospitals in that city, to be operated as a part of such hospitals. +Providence Hospital was selected as one, and because it was in charge of +Sisters of the Roman Catholic Church, the right of Congress to make the +appropriation was disputed. Among other things, Judge Peackham says: +“Whether the individuals who compose the corporation under its charter +happen to be all Roman Catholics, or all Methodists, or all Presbyterians, +or Unitarians, or members of any other religious organization, or of no +organization at all, is of not the slightest consequence with reference to +the law of its corporation, nor can the individual beliefs upon religious +matters of the various incorporators be inquired into.” The appropriation +was “for two hospital buildings to be constructed in the discretion of the +commissioners of the District of Columbia on the grounds of two hospitals +and to be operated as a part of such hospitals.”(72) + +*45.* _Constitution, Rights._—The provisions in the constitution do not in +any way interfere with property rights obtained by a church organization +prior to its adoption.(73) + +*46.* _Aid, Contracts._—Under the constitution of the United States, +Congress cannot make appropriations for nor give aid to any denomination. +Also, similar provisions are in many of the constitutions of the States. +However, many cases arise out of contracts which border upon these various +rules, and in some States the constitutional provision of the State is +such that the State Legislature may legislate concerning religion and give +certain aid and support thereto. Paying rent to a congregation for a +school-room is not an appropriation or aid to a church contrary to the +constitution.(74) + +*47.* _Protestant Teacher, Tax._—Formerly every parish in Massachusetts +was obliged to elect and support a Protestant teacher, and might erect +churches and parsonages. To provide the expenses thereof, a tax might be +assessed upon the polls of the inhabitants.(75) Until 1890 New Hampshire +permitted a tax to be levied in towns for religious purposes. It is still +legal under the New Hampshire constitution to tax the inhabitants for the +purpose of supporting Protestant teachers, but not to support a teacher of +any other denomination.(76) A section of land in every township in Ohio +was set apart for religious societies, in which they all shared +equally.(77) Vermont had a similar provision.(78) + +*48.* _Office, God._—The constitutions of Arkansas, Mississippi, North +Carolina, South Carolina, and Texas, prohibit a man from holding office +who denies the existence of a Supreme Being; and the constitutions of +Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, and Tennessee, make all clergymen ineligible +to hold a civil office.(79) + +*49.* _Religious Liberty, Bible, Religious Garb, Wages._—The authorities +are not uniform as to what constitutes a violation of religious liberty. +The question of whether the reading of the Bible in the public schools is +a violation of the constitution, is an open one in some States and in +others the courts have passed upon it, some holding that it is a violation +of the constitution,(80) and some holding that it is not.(81) The weight +of authority seems to permit the reading of the “King James” Bible,(82) +and where portions only are read, as in “reading books” prepared for +school work, or where the children are not obliged to be present during +the exercises, the cases seem to be unanimous that it is not a violation +of the constitution.(83) In Pennsylvania the court held that while Sisters +in their religious garb might be teachers in the public schools, they +could not give instruction in the Catholic religion at the schoolhouse +before or after school hours, or at any other time use the school building +for religious purposes. Also, in Wisconsin the court decided that while a +portion of a parochial school building might be leased for public school +purposes and the Sisters be employed therein as teachers, religious +exercises and instructions could not be given in such leased premises.(84) +In New York it was held not only that Sisters could not wear their +religious garb or pray in school, but that they could not collect wages +for teaching.(85) + + + + + +CHAPTER IV. STATUTORY LAW + + +*50.* _Wisconsin, Mississippi, New York._—The statutory law of the +different States of the Union is so varied and the laws of one State are +of so little interest to the people of another that it would be almost +useless and beyond the boundaries of this work to give the substance of +the various statutes. In some States there is a limitation upon the real +estate that a church or charitable organization may hold, and in other +States there is no limitation whatever. Wisconsin, perhaps, occupies the +extreme of greatest liberality, by not only allowing full freedom in +everything relating to religion and charity, but it further excepts from +the limitation all rights of alienation of real estate granted or devised +to a charitable association or to literary or charitable corporations +organized under the law of the State. The State of Mississippi probably +stands at the other extreme both in the narrowness of its constitution and +statutory law, and prohibits any devise or bequest of any personal +property or real estate in favor of any religious or ecclesiastical +corporation or any religious or ecclesiastical society. Neither does it +exempt a clergyman, physician, or lawyer, from examination as a witness +concerning information that he obtained in the performance of his +functions or duties as such. Its judges, however, are more liberal than +its legislators, and I know of no instance in which a clergyman, +physician, or lawyer, as a witness, was sent to jail for contempt of court +for not divulging information obtained in his professional capacity. +Probably New York has the most complete code(86) relating to religious +corporations. + +*51.* _Real Estate, Parish, Diocese, Taxation._—It is very important that +a congregation about to purchase real estate should examine and understand +the statutory law of the State governing the powers and authority of the +Church as a civil organization. In some States there is no special law for +incorporating religious societies; while in most States there are special +provisions therefor. For this reason, I emphasize the fact that no parish +or clergyman is justified in organizing a congregation or purchasing land +without first knowing the law of that particular State. But generally it +is best that each congregation be incorporated and that its property be +held in the name of the corporation, so that the debts of one corporation +will not embarrass the diocese, and that bequests and gifts made to a +church may be enforced in the courts. The proceedings to incorporate are +fully stated in the statutes of each State. One of the things of the +utmost importance is that any notice to be given must be given strictly as +required by law.(87) Another is to incorporate in the way that avoids +taxation.(88) + +*52.* _Riot, Damages._—Under a statute providing that a person whose +property is destroyed by riot may bring suit against the county for +damages, a corporation for religious purposes, as well as an individual, +has a right of action.(89) + +*53.* _Use, Change, Parsonage, Discipline, Doctrine, Curate._—When a fee +simple is acquired by a religious corporation, without restriction as to +quantity, but limiting the purpose of its use, a subsequent Legislature, +with the consent of the corporation, has power to change or abrogate +altogether the restrictions as to the use of the land.(90) And the +Legislature may empower the church corporation to convey a house devised +to it for a parsonage with a condition that it be kept in repair, and +invest the proceeds in other property to be held for the same purpose.(91) +A State legislature can not interfere in church discipline and doctrine, +as by legislating what shall constitute a curate in the Catholic +Church.(92) + + + + + +CHAPTER V. UNINCORPORATED CHURCH SOCIETIES + + +*54.* _Partners, Debt, Liability._—Where several go into an undertaking +without first being incorporated they are usually liable as partners, each +one being responsible for the whole debt. In some States the same +liability exists where an attempt has been made to incorporate, but there +was a failure to comply fully with the law.(93) There is some authority +freeing the individual members of a religious society from liability for +the debts of such society,(94) and holding that an agent of such society +could not bind the society in their associated capacity by a promissory +note,(95) but the rule is that the members of an unincorporated society +who actively incur lawful debts or ratify them after their creation are +personally liable. There are exceptions to this rule by statute or +decisions in a few States.(96) Also, the law of personal liability is +settled in England.(97) + +*55.* _Pastor, Salary._—In a late case in Wisconsin where a pastor had a +contract with his congregation as to his salary, after the clergyman’s +death his heirs recovered the unpaid part of his salary in an action +against a few of the individual members of the congregation.(98) + +*56.* _Building, Materials._—The members of the building committee of an +unincorporated church are liable for materials purchased by them for the +church, notwithstanding that the seller charged the materials in the name +of the church, and that at the time that the purchase was made, he was +told that the money for payment was to be raised by subscription among the +congregation.(99) + +*57.* _Management, Disability._—An unincorporated society is managed by +those who are competent to transact their own business. Therefore, it +would seem that members must be men over twenty-one years of age, and not +under legal disability. The minor sons in a family who have continued +their attendance at the religious services until of full age, are +considered members.(100) + +*58.* _Shakers, Sect, Catholic Church, Trustees, Funds._—Although the sect +called Shakers is not incorporated, yet it has been allowed to take and +hold property for church purposes.(101) In Massachusetts, by statute, a +sect may take and hold property for religious purposes without +incorporation.(102) The Roman Catholic Church is a recognized public +corporation by most nations, including the United States.(103) No +individual member of any such body has any title to the lands it holds, +but the lands are the property of the society in its aggregate +capacity.(104) After property has been acquired, the trustees have no +right to distribute it among the members, as such power could not be +conferred upon them by a majority vote even when approved by an order of +the court. The contributors did not intend their funds to be so disposed +of, and if they failed to attain the use intended, they must be returned +to the donors, and if not called for, would escheat to the state.(105) +Where an unincorporated society has purchased property and taken the title +thereto in the name of one of its members, when it subsequently +incorporates such member may be required to execute a conveyance to the +corporation.(106) + +*59.* _Contract, Binding._—Persons forming a religious society may make a +contract for the support of its minister by a majority vote.(107) When +such unincorporated society by a majority vote enters into a contract or +compromises a suit, it is binding upon the minority.(108) + +*60.* _Court, Trust._—Any member of an unincorporated society may go into +a court of equity on behalf of himself and others to enforce the execution +of a trust in favor of the society.(109) + +*61.* _Societies, Membership, Forfeiture._—Voluntary religious societies +when not restricted by their charters or articles of association, may make +by-laws declaring what shall constitute membership and what shall operate +as a forfeiture thereof, applicable to existing as well as to future +members. Where money is voted to be raised by an assessment to be made at +a subsequent period, a person who was a member of the religious society at +the time that such vote was passed, but withdraws before the time of +assessment, is not liable to taxation.(110) + + + + + +CHAPTER VI. INCORPORATED RELIGIOUS SOCIETIES + + +*62.* _Special Law, General Laws._—In most of the States there is a +special law under which congregations may be incorporated. New York is a +good example.(111) Where such law does not exist, the congregation may be +incorporated under the general laws. For business reasons each +congregation should be incorporated.(112) + +*63.* _Officers, Discipline, Property._—When a church society incorporates +it becomes a private corporation, and the officers are bound to manage the +property in the most upright and careful manner according to the +discipline of the church.(113) When a parish incorporates, the title to +the parish property vests in the corporation, to which trustees may be +compelled to convey it.(114) + +*64.* _Incorporation, Evidence._—The certificate of incorporation or +charter of a religious society or a certified copy thereof from the public +record, is the proper evidence thereof.(115) Secondary evidence and +evidence _aliunde_ may be competent in some forums.(116) In most States if +incorporation is alleged in the complaint, it need not be proved unless +denied by an affidavit or a verified answer. + +*65.* _Congregation, Members._—The act of incorporation applies only to +the particular congregation petitioning for it and does not extend to +other churches, even though they are a subsequent growth within the same +territory.(117) Incorporation once established is presumed to +continue.(118) When a new religious society is formed and incorporated, +consisting of individuals from existing parishes, the members of the new +society from the time of its incorporation cease to be members of the +respective parishes to which they had belonged.(119) + +*66.* _Temporal Affairs, Management._—A majority of a religious +corporation at a regularly called meeting may, by a vote taken, bind the +minority in all temporal affairs.(120) The character of membership in the +religious corporation may be very different from that of membership in the +church.(121) The fact that a member has been declared out of the church by +an ecclesiastical tribunal, may not affect his rights in the management of +the temporal concerns of the corporation.(122) + +*67.* _Corporators, Change._—In isolated cases here and there it has been +held that a majority of the corporators of a religious society has the +right to change the form of church government, as from the Congregational +Church to an organization in connection with the Presbyterian Church.(123) +But it is a general rule that a majority of the congregation can act only +consistently with the particular and general laws of the church +organization, but not in violation of them.(124) + +*68.* _Constitution, Subsequent Laws._—An ecclesiastical society formed +before the adoption of the state constitution is not by that constitution +and subsequent laws concerning religious societies divested of its legal +character.(125) + +*69.* _Name, Change._—The name of an ecclesiastical corporation is +arbitrary and a change or alteration in its name does not affect its +identity.(126) A charter will not be granted to a church with a name so +like another church in the same State, that one may be taken for the +other.(127) + +*70.* _Church, Regular._—In church organizations those who adhere to the +regular order of the church, legal and general, though a minority, are the +true congregation and constitute the corporation if incorporated.(128) + +*71.* _Notice, Legal._—All the proceedings of a corporation, including +notice, must be in accordance with the constitution and by-laws, and no +business transacted contrary thereto is legal.(129) + +*72.* _Control, Secede, Vested Rights._—The officers of a church +corporation have control of the business management for all civil +purposes, excepting as otherwise provided by the articles of organization, +charter, or by-laws of the corporation. However, the by-laws must not +contravene the laws of the State.(130) A charter was refused in +Pennsylvania which provided that the congregation might, by a majority +vote, dissolve or secede from the central body and divide the +property.(131) A charter of incorporation may be amended in harmony with +the principles, discipline, and objects of the church, but not +otherwise.(132) The fact that incorporation of a church confers certain +rights and privileges under the charter, such charter being accepted, does +not give the church corporation any vested rights.(133) + +*73.* _Consolidation, Control, Dissolution._—So far as the State law is +concerned, two different denominations may form one corporation;(134) or +two or more congregations of the same organization may form one +corporation.(135) Where such consolidation is attempted, the new +organization must have control of all the property.(136) So long as +different congregations attempting to consolidate retain their respective +identities, they do not form a single corporation.(137) It is a general +rule that a corporation may be dissolved by taking the steps required by +law. As there are various statutory provisions in the different States, +each case had best be attended to by an attorney. In some States there is +a provision that where a corporation fails to carry out its functions for +a stated time, it thereby becomes dissolved. The omission of a parish for +one year to elect officers, does not necessarily operate as a dissolution +under such statute. In case of dissolution under a statute of that kind, +the property of the church is not forfeited to the State.(138) + +*74.* _Debt, Limited._—The amount of debt which the trustees of a +religious society may be authorized to create, may be limited by its +constitution.(139) + +*75.* _Conditions, Effect._—Where $1,000 was given defendants to erect and +maintain forever a Lutheran church and prohibiting the grantee from +alienating or disposing of or otherwise changing or encumbering the land +by deed, a mortgage given to secure a legitimate debt was held valid, as +the legal title was in the corporation and a court of equity could not +refuse to enforce the mortgage for the payment of an honest debt under +color of protecting a charitable use.(140) But property given a +congregation for the maintenance of a church that becomes dissolved, +reverts to the heirs as a resulting trust.(141) A corporation that has +been authorized to purchase land may execute a mortgage for the purchase +money or a part of it without further authority.(142) Where by an ancient +agreement a meeting-house was to remain in a particular place, a vote of +the congregation will not justify pulling it down, and an action of +trespass will lie for razing it and damages will be given for the value of +the building.(143) + +*76.* _Suits, Parties._—When a church is incorporated, it should be sued +in its corporate name; but when the bishop of the Catholic church holds +the legal title to the land in litigation, he should be made a party.(144) +And if there are two sets of officers contending for control, service of +the papers upon the intruders may not be sufficient. The safer practice is +to serve upon both.(145) A suit by the trustees of a religious society to +restrain other parties claiming to be trustees from interfering in the +management and control of the society property, is properly brought in the +corporate name of the trustees and not in the name of the State.(146) + +*77.* _Incorporation, Sufficient._—Where the articles of incorporation +were drawn and signed in the form required by law, excepting as to the +acknowledgment, and were recorded, and the corporation organized in good +faith, it became a _de facto_ corporation and was sufficient to entitle it +to sue to prevent certain members from perverting the use of its +property.(147) + +*78.* _Dissolution, Fund._—The corporation of a congregation can not by +seceding and a majority vote dissolve the corporation where it is a part +of a superior body.(148) But the courts have plenary powers over +corporations under the United States jurisdiction, such as territories, +and may dissolve a corporation.(149) The fact that the dissolution is +contrary to, or authorized by church discipline, makes no difference as to +granting the dissolution, as such discipline can not supersede the state +law.(150) On dissolution of a religious corporation, the surplus fund +derived from a legacy should be disposed of in the manner the court +believes to be most in harmony with the will of the contributors to the +fund, could they have foreseen the event.(151) + +*79.* _Reorganization._—A church corporation may reorganize and be +reinstated into all rights that it formerly had.(152) The steps to be +taken to reorganize are usually provided by statute and should be closely +followed. Upon the reorganization, the old corporation becomes +terminated.(153) + +*80.* _Meetings, Majority, Quorum._—In corporate meetings, meetings of +boards, and meetings of committees duly called, a majority vote of those +present determines the action of the body. If the membership is +indefinite, those who attend such meeting constitute a quorum; but if the +membership is definite, it requires a majority of the voting members to +constitute a quorum, unless the law of the State or the constitution +(articles of organization) or by-laws provide a different number.(154) + + + + + +CHAPTER VII. SUPERIOR AUTHORITY + + +*81.* _Protestant, Ministers, Bishop._—In most church organizations the +authority is divided into superior and inferior. In countries where there +is an established Protestant church, the superior authority is first in +the king and queen and secondly in the bishops. The inferior authority is +in the ministers and secular officers of the church. Where there is no +established church, the synod or bishop is the superior authority. Thus +decisions of our courts usually apply to all churches alike. + +*82.* _Roman Catholic Church, Pope, Bishops, Delegated._—In the Roman +Catholic Church the superior authority is first in the Pope and secondly +in the other bishops. This superior authority is graded and some of it may +be delegated, as in case of a Papal delegate. But the general rule that +delegated authority can not be again delegated by the delegate without +special authority applies to church matters. + +*83.* _Bishop, Discipline, Clergy._—Within his diocese the bishop is the +executive officer, the legislature, and the judiciary; but he is subject +to the superior authority of the Church. The bishop may make laws for his +diocese, subject to the limitation of the general doctrine and discipline +of the Church. He has original jurisdiction of all causes arising in his +diocese, and may decide them in the first instance and inflict such +penalties, suspension, or excommunication, in accordance with the canons +of the Church, as he deems fit. The clergy are subject to his orders and +discipline according to the canon law. However, without special contract, +the bishop is not civilly liable for the salary of a priest under him, +either while he is actually in the line of his assigned duties or while +waiting to be assigned.(155) + +*84.* _Local, Secular Matters._—There is still another division of +superior and inferior authority: the local corporation or congregation has +nothing whatever to do with the doctrinal or disciplinary functions of the +Church; but has only such powers and authority with regard to secular +matters as is provided by the laws of the State or conferred by the +articles of organization, charter, and by-laws. Also, unless there is some +other rule to the contrary, only the male members who are over twenty-one +years of age, have a voice and vote in such corporation.(156) + +*85.* _Unincorporated, Authority._—When a church is not incorporated, all +its elections and proceedings, so far as they are not contrary to the laws +of the State, must be in accordance with the rules and regulations of the +Church; and the rule that the inferior authority must give way to the +superior authority in all matters within the limitations of the +constitution and laws of the organization, prevails.(157) However, courts +are not always clear on the last part of this rule.(158) + +*86.* _Tribunal, Action, Appeal._—When any question arises and is being +adjudicated in the tribunal of the church organization, either as an +original action or on appeal, the State court will not interfere so long +as the proceedings are in accordance with the rules and regulations of the +church, unless some vested right to property is in question or some one’s +right as a citizen of the State or of the United States is being +infringed.(159) + +*87.* _Spiritual Authority, Excommunication._—Neither the Pope nor the +bishop has any but spiritual authority within the State.(160) The law of +this country considers excommunication as expelling from membership; but +does not tolerate interference with civil or property rights of citizens. +Therefore, major excommunication _non tolerati_, is unlawful in the United +States.(161) However, a bishop is not liable for any expression of his +opinion as to the extent of his episcopal authority nor for any act of +omission in the exercise of his spiritual functions.(162) The civil courts +will not go behind a church authority to inquire as to excommunication, +but may examine as to the competency of the tribunal according to the laws +of the denomination.(163) + +*88.* _Constitution, Limited, Decisions._—A written constitution is not +necessary to prove the connection between a subordinate and superior +ecclesiastical body; but it will be inferred from the circumstances of the +case.(164) The superior may dissolve or reorganize an inferior body as a +congregation.(165) In fact the superior authority, in religious matters, +is plenary, excepting as limited by the laws of the State and the +constitution of the Church.(166) The decisions of the ecclesiastical +tribunals in all cases on doctrine, order, and discipline, are conclusive +in the state courts.(167) + + + + + +CHAPTER VIII. INFERIOR AUTHORITY + + +*89.* _Priesthood_, _Discipline_.—The inferior authority in the Church may +be said to be in the priesthood, whose rights and duties are fixed by the +canon law, but who are still further subject to the reasonable diocesan +rules made by the bishop. The disciplinary relation of a priest to his +bishop is substantially the same as that of a captain to his colonel, and +implicit obedience in accordance with the discipline of the Church may be +strictly enforced by the bishop in so far as it relates to ecclesiastical +matters, including doctrine and discipline, in which the priest can not +resort to the courts of the State, but must submit to the tribunals of the +church.(168) + +*90.* _Congregation, Insubordinate, Discipline._—The male members of a +congregation are invested with no visitorial or controling power, but only +such authority as is given under the laws of incorporation.(169) Where an +inferior organization, as a congregation, refuses to receive a clergyman +appointed by the bishop, it is an act of insubordination to the +ecclesiastical authority of the Church and in violation of its discipline, +which authorizes the issuing of a peremptory mandamus commanding them to +admit the clergyman.(170) + +*91.* _Pastor, Parish, Relation._—When a clergyman’s connection with a +church had been duly dissolved, he ceased to be pastor of the church and +an arrangement with the parish to retain his relation as pastor of such +church was nugatory and void.(171) + +*92.* _Clergymen, Citizens._—Clergymen residing in an incorporated town +are not exempt from the performance of any duties required of citizens, +unless such exemption is given by statute.(172) + +*93.* _Doctrine and Discipline, Authority._—In all matters concerning +doctrine and discipline of the Church, the inferior authority, such as +ministers, priests, and deacons, as well as the congregation, must submit +to the decision of the higher authority, whether bishop, synod, or +council.(173) + +*94.* _Sect, Suit, Property._—A number of people formed a congregation and +became incorporated in 1810, the members being mostly of Presbyterian +extraction. This independent congregation bought and paid for property, +the title vesting in the corporation. In 1811 the congregation passed +resolutions unanimously that it “would be imprudent and unscriptural” to +establish a new religious sect, and voted to join the First Reformed Dutch +Church, which had an organization of inferior and superior authority. The +congregation was received into and became a part of the general +organization, and remained so until 1860, when a majority of the +congregation voted to employ a Methodist minister, and when his name was +submitted to the superior authority, the “classis,” he was rejected as not +belonging to the church. Then by a majority vote, the congregation seceded +and assumed its first name, and thereafter brought suit for the church +property. The court held that by joining the First Reformed Dutch Church, +the title of the property vested in the congregation of that church as +represented by its corporation, and that when the majority seceded and +left the church, they had no right nor title to any of the property. And +the court laid down the general rule that a majority of a church +congregation may direct and control any church matters consistently with +the particular and general laws of the organization or denomination to +which it belongs, but not in violation of them.(174) + +*95.* _Priest, Salary._—The fact that a bishop who holds the title to all +the diocesan property in his own name in trust appoints a priest to the +parish or as chaplain to a hospital, does not give the priest a right of +action against the bishop personally for his salary. The relation of +bishop and priest is not that of employer and employe, but is that of +ecclesiastical superior and inferior.(175) + +*96.* _Curate, Induction, Rector._—The _jus patronatus_ of the Spanish law +has been abrogated in Louisiana. The wardens of the church can not compel +a bishop to institute a curate of their appointment, nor is he in any +sense subordinate in his clerical functions to the wardens of any church +within his diocese.(176) In the absence of a positive rule of the +ecclesiastical body, no ceremony of induction is necessary for the rector +of a parish.(177) A clergyman appointed “permanently” to a rectorship +holds it for an indefinite period during the pleasure of the contracting +parties, and either of the contracting parties may give the other notice +of termination, and with the concurrence of the higher ecclesiastical +authority of the diocese, a change may be made.(178) It is doubtful, +however, whether in most States a permanent appointment would not be +construed as a contract for life, determinable only for good cause.(179) + +*97.* _Controversy, Tribunal, Decision._—When the clergyman and his +parishioners submit a controversy to an ecclesiastical tribunal, the +decision, if not impeached for good cause, is justification in the party +conforming to it.(180) And a minister who submits to a church tribunal and +is ousted after fair hearing and trial, can not obtain a writ of mandamus +from the civil court to compel his reinstatement.(181) Also, after a +minister has been dismissed in due manner by the tribunal of his +denomination, the civil court will enjoin him from usurping his +office.(182) + +*98.* _Priest, Dwelling, Servant._—A Catholic priest in charge of a +congregation at the will of the bishop and occupying a dwelling-house +belonging to the church, is a servant and not a tenant, and his right to +occupancy ceases with his services.(183) The law is different with regard +to a Methodist minister who is in charge of his parish by an annual +conference and can not be ejected by the congregation or bishop until the +next conference, as he has possession of the church property without +superior authority.(184) + +*99.* _Injunction, Bishop, Priest, Trial._—On application for an +injunction to restrain the bishop from passing a sentence against a +priest, the only ground on which a court can exercise jurisdiction is that +the threatened action of the bishop will affect the civil rights of the +priest.(185) A bishop can not remove a priest without an accusation, +hearing, or trial, and forbid him to exercise any priestly function where +such removal would cut off the priest’s income and destroy his means of +living in his vocation.(186) However, in the same case it was held that a +complaint stating that the bishop failed and neglected to assign the +plaintiff to the exercise of his office of priest in said diocese to the +plaintiff’s damage, etc., failed to show that any right of property or +civil right was involved and the priest was non-suited, while in the +former case an injunction was issued against the bishop.(187) + +*100.* _Confession, Privacy, Authority._—A Catholic priest, although about +to administer an office of his religion to a sick person at the latter’s +request, has no legal authority, by virtue of his priestly character, to +forcibly remove from the room a person lawfully there.(188) + +*101.* _Debts, Permission, Presumed._—Notwithstanding a rule or +ecclesiastical law of the church that a pastor shall not contract debts in +the name or for the sake of the church without the written permission of +the bishop, such written permission is not evidence that debts contracted +under it are the legal debts of the bishop. The authority which bishops +delegate to priests is under the ecclesiastical law and prima facie +ecclesiastical authority, and must be presumed to be so in the absence of +all evidence to the contrary.(189) + +*102.* _Official Acts, Subscriptions._—The official acts of a minister +coming in question incidentally, unless contrary to the statute, are as +valid as the official acts of any other officer.(190) A clergyman who was +engaged to conduct dedication services and was requested by the officers +of the local corporation to solicit subscriptions for paying off the +indebtedness of the church, but was not appointed agent to receive such +subscriptions, had no authority to accept a subscription for the +corporation.(191) + +*103.* _Exemptions, Clergy._—The exemptions given ministers by the +statutes of some States are liberally construed.(192) Without any +statutory exemption, the clergy are liable for all duties required of +other citizens.(193) + +*104.* _Minister, Contributions, Deposed._—No religious teacher or +minister can be enjoined from receiving voluntary contributions, although +he has been deposed by some ecclesiastical tribunal.(194) + +*105.* _Fees, Usages, Excess._—The fees of a priest of the Catholic Church +are regulated by the laws and usages of that Church, and where in this +country the pew rent and collections go for the support of the priest and +the current church expenses, a priest is not accountable for the excess of +such collections over these expenditures.(195) + +*106.* _Salary, Fees._—Under the act of March, 1814, incorporating a +congregation, the congregation, being the legal owners and temporal +administrators of the property which it was authorized to hold, had the +exclusive power to fix the salary of the parish priest or the tariff of +fees for marriages, burial, etc. No such power could be exercised under +that act by the Pope or any bishop.(196) + +*107.* _Clergyman, Salary._—Where a clergyman agreed with a congregation +that the salary should be what could be raised by subscription, the +congregation was bound to use due diligence in procuring subscriptions, +and as it did so, that was all that the clergyman could recover.(197) + +*108.* _Curate, Services._—In an action by a curate against a religious +corporation for personal services, the court will not inquire into the +spiritual relations existing between the parties, but will examine their +legal rights only.(198) + +*109.* _Minister, Dismissal, Money Advanced._—After a parish has voted to +dismiss the minister, it is not competent to prove irregular conduct or +immorality in answer to his claim for salary, without alleging it in the +vote of dismissal.(199) In Illinois it was held that a priest who advanced +money from his private resources for improving church property, had an +equitable lien upon the property for all the money advanced, with legal +interest.(200) But in Pennsylvania, where a priest under the direction of +the bishop built a church in his parish for mission purposes, and in doing +so expended some of his own money, it was held that in the absence of +proof of any rule or custom of the Catholic Church making the payment of +such expenses obligatory on the parish, that he could not recover the +money so expended from his congregation.(201) + + + + + +CHAPTER IX. MEMBERSHIP + + +*110.* _Business, Religious Membership._—Unless there is some other law or +rule to the contrary, the male members of the congregation over twenty-one +years of age constitute the business membership of a religious +society.(202) But the question of membership of religious societies or +congregations is left to be determined by the rules of the religious +denomination to which they belong.(203) And where a condition of +membership is that the person must contribute to the support of the church +and be a communicant, if he is not a communicant he is not entitled to +vote.(204) + +*111.* _Regular, Doctrines, Support._—The ones who adhere and submit to +the regular order and doctrines of the church, although a minority, +constitute the true congregation.(205) At least two things must concur to +qualify a person as a voter: first, stated attendance at divine worship in +the congregation; and, second, contribution to the support of the +church.(206) The list of members kept by the clerk or secretary of the +congregation is evidence of membership.(207) A person who denies any part +of the system of theology received and taught by the denomination is not a +member of the church.(208) + +*112.* _Factions, Authority._—Where two factions of a church, each +claiming to be the church, try members of the other faction, a court may +determine which of the factions is the authorized authority or that the +action taken by either or both of them is nugatory for want of +authority.(209) + +*113.* _Faith, Burial._—Whether a person died in the faith of the Roman +Catholic Church so as to be entitled to burial in its cemetery, is not a +question within the jurisdiction of civil courts, but must be decided by +the ecclesiastical authorities.(210) + +*114.* _Rules, Membership._—Every denomination has the right to prescribe +by rules, its constitution, or its by-laws, the conditions of membership; +and any one who will not subscribe to and practise the doctrines of the +denomination is not a member.(211) + +*115.* _Minor._—Where the legal members of a society that is incorporated +consist of male members of the church of full age, when minor sons become +of age, they become legal members of the corporation, provided they remain +in the church.(212) + +*116.* _Officers, Non-Members._—It has been held that a person may be an +officer or member of the church corporation or its temporal concerns +without being a member of the denomination.(213) + +*117.* _Debts, Unincorporated Parish._—In Connecticut members of an +ecclesiastical society formed by voluntary association under the statutes +of the State are not individually liable for the debts of such +society.(214) But where there is no statute on the subject, the members of +an unincorporated parish are liable for lawful debts contracted or +ratified by them, and their property may be levied on for such debts +incurred or judgments rendered while they are members of the society.(215) +The members of an unincorporated parish may be sued to recover the salary +of a deceased pastor up to the time of his death.(216) + +*118.* _Execution, Property._—While an execution against a territorial +parish may be levied on the property of a member of the parish, it can not +be levied on property of a person who ceased to be a member before the +levy.(217) + +*119.* _Incorporated, Subscriptions._—The members of an incorporated poll +parish are not individually liable on a judgment and execution against the +corporation, excepting on the unpaid subscriptions.(218) + +*120.* _Expelled, Merits._—Mandamus can not be resorted to to restore a +member regularly expelled from his church, as a court will not inquire +into the merits of the case.(219) + +*121.* _Lay Members, Appointed._—Where the statute provides that two lay +members of the corporation of a Catholic parish shall be appointed +annually “by the committee of the congregation,” the members of the +congregation have no right to elect said two members, and those appointed +in the proper manner are lawful officers.(220) + + + + + +CHAPTER X. HERESY AND SECESSION + + +*122.* _Mother Church, Control._—A majority of the members of a +congregation can not by their vote leave the church and transfer the +property of the congregation to another church so long as any portion of +the congregation remains faithful to the mother church of which such +congregation forms a part. Such minority shall retain control of the +property.(221) + +*123.* _Seceders, Funds._—Nor can seceders from a religious denomination +retain the funds in their hands as trustees on the ground that they were +members of the society when the funds accrued.(222) The title to church +property in a divided congregation is in that part of the congregation +which is acting in harmony with its own law; and the ecclesiastical laws +and principles which were accepted among them before the dispute began are +the standards for determining which party is right.(223) + +*124.* _Society, Foreign Language, Independent._—The formation of a +society distinct from the rest of the congregation for the purpose of +instruction in a portion of the doctrine of the same church in a foreign +language is not a separation from the congregation, although it has its +own minister and officers.(224) Where an independent congregation of one +denomination votes unanimously to go over to another denomination, and the +title to the church property is in the parish corporation, the seceders +take with them the church property.(225) + +*125.* _Subordinate, Incorporated._—A religious society subordinate to +church judicatures, which declares itself independent and becomes +incorporated under the general law of the state and subsequently purchases +land and takes title in the name of the corporation, holds such land +independently of such church judicatures.(226) + +*126.* _“__Church,__”__ Seceders, Debt._—Where a religious society amended +its constitution as provided therein, those who adhered to the amended +constitution constituted the “church,” and those who refused to do so were +seceders.(227) After seceding, a member of a parish is liable for a debt +existing at the time of his secession.(228) + +*127.* _Bible, Constitution, Withdrawal._—A religious organization that +takes the Bible as its constitution can not declare a member a seceder who +interprets it contrary to the Augsburg Confession of the +denomination.(229) What amounts to a voluntary withdrawal of members from +a religious association, is a question of law.(230) + +*128.* _Majority, Obligation._—The fact that a majority of the members of +a religious corporation secede therefrom by a vote, does not affect its +obligation entered into prior thereto.(231) Two factions of a church +separating and keeping up different organizations may both still retain +their membership in the denomination.(232) + +*129.* _Division, Funds._—Where there is a division in a denomination by +the secession of a part of the members from the mother church, the +Legislature has no authority to divide the funds and give a part to the +seceding division.(233) + +*130.* _Methodist, Slaveholding, Non-Slaveholding, Quarrel, Schism, +Secession._—The division of the Methodist church into distinct +organizations of slaveholding and non-slaveholding States, was not a +secession and neither division lost its interest in the common +property.(234) A quarrel in a congregation growing out of an illegal +election followed by the majority excluding the minority from the church, +is not a schism, and is no ground for a division of the church +property.(235) The secession of a whole congregation does not carry with +it the church property; and those who are left and adhere to the mother +church retain control of the property.(236) When the seceders from one +church join another, they forfeit all claim to any interest held by the +former and lose identity with it.(237) + + + + + +CHAPTER XI. EXCOMMUNICATION + + +*131.* _Definitions, Minor._—Excommunication, as construed in law, is the +official announcement by the superior authority of the termination of +membership in a religious body and the forfeiture of spiritual privileges +of the church. It is one of the methods of discipline in the nature of +expulsion from membership in a fraternity, and the fact of expulsion from +a church is conclusive proof that the person expelled is not a member of +such church. Whether the excommunication was wrong or not can not be +examined into in the courts of the State, and such expelled member can not +maintain a suit in relation to church property nor vote for trustees.(238) + +*132.* _Major Excommunication._—As excommunication _non tolerati_ affects +the rights of citizenship, it is not lawful in England nor the United +States. To say that A. has been excommunicated in any form, if untrue, is +slander.(239) + +*133.* _Vote, Sentence._—When a vote of excommunication from a church has +been passed in the Congregational church and the offender thereby declared +no longer a member, the sentence may be promulgated by being read in the +presence of the congregation by the pastor.(240) + +*134.* _Trustees, Disqualified._—The trustees of a church who have been +excommunicated are not thereby disqualified in law to act as +trustees.(241) + +*135.* _Devise, Void._—A parent may leave money to a child payable in +yearly instalments on condition that said child shall continue to be a +member of a particular church and attend the regular meetings thereof, and +in case he fail so to do that the bequest be thereupon paid to a +missionary society. Such a devise is not contrary to the constitution of +the State of Wisconsin and is not void for any other reason.(242) + +*136.* _Fraternity, Excommunicated, Bequest._—Where a church member was +also a member of an insurance fraternity connected with his church, the +constitution of which required that every member of the fraternity should +be and remain a practical Roman Catholic, when he was excommunicated from +membership in the church he thereby forfeited his benefit certificate in +such fraternity.(243) Also, a condition that a bequest shall be forfeited +if the legatee should not marry a Protestant wife, the daughter of +Protestant parents who have always been Protestants, was held to be valid +and not an infringement of any constitutional right.(244) + +*137.* _Action, Expulsion._—An action can not be maintained against the +parish corporation for expulsion from the church.(245) + +*138.* _Forfeiture of Membership_.—Any member may forfeit his membership +in a church.(246) + +*139.* _Insubordination, Expulsion, Hearing._—The authorities in the +church, under its rules and discipline, have a right to exclude members in +the church, for insubordination.(247) If the church has no rules as to +expulsion of members, the common law prevails, and a member can not be +expelled without due notice and fair hearing.(248) + +*140.* _Injunction, Mandamus, Sepulture._—An injunction will not be +granted to prevent the expulsion of a member contrary to the charter and +by-laws of the denomination; but if a member be expelled without warrant +of law, he has his remedy by mandamus for reinstatement.(249) A person who +has been expelled can not maintain an action for restoration in order to +enjoy the right of sepulture, as it is premature.(250) + +*141.* _Expulsion, Illegal._—The attempt of a minority of a church to +expel the majority of the members and turn over the property to another +denomination is illegal. However, the same would be true if it were done +by the majority.(251) + +*142.* _Freedom, Faith, Doctrine._—The constitution in declaring the +freedom of all men to worship God according to the dictates of their own +consciences, does not give a church member the right to repudiate the +faith and doctrine on which the church was founded, and at the same time +to insist on his right to exercise and enjoy the benefits and privileges +of a member of such church.(252) Every person joining a church, impliedly, +if not expressly, agrees to conform to its rules and to submit to its +authority and discipline.(253) A person who has been expelled from a +religious society can not maintain an action for services rendered the +society while he was a member.(254) + + + + + +CHAPTER XII. ELECTIONS + + +*143.* _Time, Place, Void._—Where a religious society that is incorporated +holds an election for trustees, which is held at the wrong time or place, +the election is void.(255) + +*144.* _Voting, Communicants, Attendance._—A by-law of a church that +prohibited any person whose pew rent was in arrears more than two years +from voting at a church meeting, is valid and reasonable.(256) Where a +charter of a religious society allowed only members being communicants to +vote after they had attained the age of eighteen years, to entitle a +member of the congregation to vote it was necessary that he should have +taken the sacraments after the age of eighteen years.(257) Where the right +to vote was limited to members who contributed not less than ten shillings +annually toward the support of the church, those who were challenged for +want of complying with the rule can not do so after being challenged and +then vote.(258) Stated attendance at divine worship in the church, +congregation, or society, and contribution to the support of such church, +may be made the tests of the right of a person to be a voter at an +election. The attendance of a wife or children of the family is not +sufficient to confer the right to vote on the husband or father.(259) + +*145.* _Voters, Poll List._—Parol evidence is admissible to prove the +number of persons entitled to vote in a church society, notwithstanding +that there is a register of names of the stated hearers in such church +kept by the clerk of the trustees. + +*146.* _Notice, Quorum, Majority, Strangers._—It is not necessary that a +majority of the members of a religious society be present to constitute a +corporate meeting. Those present at a regularly called meeting of which +due notice has been given to all the members, constitute a quorum; and, in +the absence of a rule to the contrary, a majority of the votes cast +carries any question.(260) The presence of strangers, unless they vote, +will not vitiate the proceedings. If they should vote, unless their votes +determine the election, it will not be void.(261) The casting of a few +illegal votes that would not change the result of the election does not +make it void.(262) + +*147.* _Challenge, Ground._—The right of a person to vote at any meeting +may be challenged. The proper time to challenge a voter is when he offers +his vote. After his vote has been received it can not be thrown out on the +ground that he was disqualified.(263) A church election for which due +notice has been given, that has been fairly conducted, and all the +requirements of the statute or rules of the church complied with, is +conclusive.(264) Without due notice, all proceedings are void.(265) + +*148.* _By-Laws, Usage._—If there is no law of a religious society +determining the mode of conducting an election, the corporation may +provide by-laws therefor; and if the corporation should fail to make such +by-laws, a long established usage will govern.(266) Also, if the time an +election is to be held is provided for, but the manner of conducting it is +not, the meeting may be conducted according to established usage.(267) + +*149.* _Ballot, Hand Vote._—The vote of a religious society at an annual +meeting for the election of officers that the officers shall always be +chosen by ballot, does not vitiate an election of officers by hand vote at +a subsequent annual meeting. But a provision in the constitution or +by-laws requiring a ballot must be complied with.(268) + +*150.* _Hold Over, Successors._—When the election of the new trustees is +invalid, the old trustees hold over until there will have been a valid +election of their successors.(269) But where a board that was illegally +elected employed a minister who had no notice of such illegality, he was +entitled to his compensation according to the contract.(270) + +*151.* _Majority, Votes Cast._—Where the majority of a congregation +protested against the proposed candidate, but failed to vote for any one, +such candidate who received the greatest number of votes cast, was +lawfully elected.(271) + +*152.* _By-Law, Tickets._—When a by-law provides that “if besides the +names there are other things upon the tickets, such tickets are not to be +counted,” a ballot having an engraved eagle on it should be rejected.(272) +However, in a very recent case under a statute that specifically provided +what should be printed on the general election ballot, and in addition +thereto the Union Labor label was printed thereon, the court held that the +statute should be strictly construed in favor of the voter and that the +ticket should be counted.(273) + + + + + +CHAPTER XIII. OFFICERS + + +*153.* _Charter, By-Laws._—The articles of organization or the charter +which is the constitution of the corporation may provide who may be +officers of a religious society and limit their authority. The +constitution usually gives further authority to make by-laws which are +binding on the officers as well as on the members.(274) + +*154.* _Unincorporated Church, Incorporated._—The officers of an +unincorporated church can only be elected by the members of the church, +unless there is some law of the State or rule of the church that provides +for appointing them. In an incorporated congregation, the charter and +by-laws of the corporation determine whether the officers shall be elected +or appointed.(275) + +*155.* _Trustees, Control._—A statute passed in 1813 providing that a +certificate of incorporation by the bishop, vicar-general, pastor of the +church, and two others selected by them and their successors shall be a +body corporate, does not constitute the trustees the corporation in place +of the congregation so as to make the acts of a majority of the trustees +binding on the corporation in the absence of proof of other +authority.(276) Under the statutes of Louisiana providing for the +incorporation of congregations for the purpose of administration and +revenues, it was held that the corporation had full control and was +responsible to the congregation alone and could not be controled by the +clergy. The congregation had the right to elect others in the places of +those amoved by reason of their misuse or abuse of their powers.(277) And +in Massachusetts, under the law for incorporating Catholic parishes, no +one but the trustees have any power.(278) + +*156.* _Membership, Office._—Where church membership is necessary to hold +office in the church corporation, it is a binding condition +precedent.(279) An officer who withdraws or is expelled from a religious +organization thereby terminates his office.(280) + +*157.* _Certificate of Election._—A certificate of election of officers is +prima facie evidence thereof, but the truth may be shown _aliunde_ and a +wrong certificate may be cancelled by a judgment of a competent court on a +writ of _quo warranto_ or proceeding under a statute of the State. Also, +if the certificate does not conform to the law, it is insufficient.(281) + +*158.* _Term, Successors, Contest._—Where there is no term of office +fixed, the presumption is that an officer continues as such until proof to +the contrary is established,(282) or until his successor shall have been +elected and shall have qualified.(283) Also, the officers elected for a +certain term can not be amoved by electing new officers before the end of +the term.(284) When officers or committees have been elected “for the +ensuing year,” they shall hold office until superseded by their duly +elected successors. Where two sets of officers were elected at a meeting +of a religious corporation and the set that was elected according to the +charter continued in office by appointment thereafter, it was too late for +the irregularly elected officers to make a contest for the offices after +the term for which they had been elected had expired.(285) + +*159.* _By-Laws, Preside._—At an election of trustees under by-laws that +provide that certain officers shall preside, if there are no such officers +members may be selected to preside in their places.(286) + +*160.* _Note, Overdraft, Interest._—The president and secretary of a +church corporation have no authority to make a promissory note unless +authorized by the board of trustees.(287) Neither has the treasurer +authority to make an overdraft on a bank with the action of the +trustees.(288) The trustees of a parish, however, may make a note binding +the congregation for the payment of the money used in building a +church.(289) But when the trustees have an interest in the transaction, +adverse to the congregation, they are disqualified from acting.(290) When +trustees had claims against the congregation which they included with +other claims that third parties had against the church, they could not put +them in a judgment note so as to get a lien upon the church property. When +officers do not bind the congregation, they usually bind themselves.(291) +The trustees of an unincorporated church can not bind it beyond the +expressed powers granted by the members.(292) + +*161.* _Board, Control._—When the laws of the organization give control of +matters to the board of trustees, the majority of the members of the +church can not control the action of the trustees contrary to the usages +and regulations of the church.(293) + +*162.* _Treasurer, Accepting a Draft._—A parish treasurer has no authority +under any condition to bind the corporation by accepting a draft in favor +of a third person. A treasurer elected for the purpose of receiving and +investing funds in his individual name, holds such funds as trustee for +the church and is subject as such trustee to a court of equity. Persons +claiming to be trustees of a church but never getting possession of their +offices or the property of the church, can not maintain an action against +other persons who are in possession and have been duly elected.(294) + +*163.* _Note, Trustees._—A church will not be bound by a note which was +executed by two of its trustees and sent around to other trustees to sign +it, where there was no vote of the board of trustees at an authorized +meeting to borrow or to execute such note.(295) A meeting of a board must +be called as required by law or the by-laws of the organization, and in +the absence of any such all members must be notified a reasonable time +before the time fixed for holding the meeting. However, if all the +trustees are present and agree to hold a meeting it is valid; but it would +be well to put such consent in writing and have all the members sign +it.(296) + +*164.* _Money, Powers._—The treasurer of a congregation has no right to +return to members moving out of the parish a part of the money paid for +the church by them.(297) Officers of a corporation have no powers only +those conferred upon them by the charter and by-laws of the corporation or +by a majority vote of a duly called meeting of the congregation.(298) When +the trustees of a church are authorized to execute contracts for the +church, they should act as a body or delegate the power to one of their +number or ratify the acts of one of their number.(299) The individual +disjointed action of trustees of a religious society, at various times and +places, although assented to by a majority, is not the action of the +board, and is not binding on the society. To make the action of the board +of trustees binding, they must duly meet and by a vote determine their +action.(300) + +*165.* _De Facto Officers._—The acts of _de facto_ officers can not +usually be questioned in a collateral proceeding, such as to set aside a +conveyance, when the merits of the question do not involve the +election.(301) Being elected does not alone make a person a _de facto_ +officer; but he must also be acting in the particular office to which he +claims to have been elected.(302) But one who has entered into a contract +with the officers of a congregation is estopped from denying their +authority to make such contract.(303) + +*166.* _Trustees, Thanks, Charge._—Where trustees have taken care of funds +without charge, the only entry kept being a vote of thanks from time to +time, they could not afterward charge a commission on the moneys handled +by them for such services.(304) + +*167.* _Discretion, Excommunication._—A court has no authority to control +the exercise of the judgment or discretion of the officers of a church in +the management of its funds so long as they do not violate its +constitution or by-laws.(305) Excommunication does not always remove an +officer of a church corporation.(306) The legal rights of a bishop in +regard to the temporalities of a church where they are not prescribed by +civil law, must rest, if at all, upon the ecclesiastical law, which must +be determined by evidence.(307) + +*168.* _Key, Possession, Right._—Having the key of a church, is prima +facie evidence of possession, but the right of possession is a matter of +proof.(308) + +*169.* _Church, Bishop, Debts, Salary of a Priest._—Where a church is not +itself liable because it is not incorporated, the Roman Catholic bishop of +the diocese is not personally liable for moneys borrowed by the pastors of +such church in the name of the church, which were partly invested in real +estate which was put in the bishop’s name in the usual manner, although +the bishop’s permission was necessary before borrowing the money, and +notwithstanding that the bishop raised some of the money to pay some of +the debts and the mortgage on the real estate of the church on his +personal security, and he received part of the borrowed funds from a dying +pastor and handed it over to his successor.(309) Also, a bishop is not +personally liable for the salary of a priest whom he engages. They are +fellow servants working for the Church and not in the relation of employer +and employee any more than are a general and captain in the same +army.(310) + +*170.* _Note, Building Committee._—In an action on a note given by the +pastor of a church for money borrowed to pay bills for the erection of the +church building, in which the plaintiff sought to charge the building +committee, and it appeared from the plaintiff’s testimony that the title +to the property was in the bishop and the committee did not handle any of +the funds, but was a shifting body to whom the pastor only went for advice +and consultation, it was held that the plaintiff could not recover.(311) + +*171.* _Fraud, Trust._—Where a “prophet” induced members of his +organization, by his fraud and deceit, to convey to him all their property +in discharge of a religious duty and then refused to account to them, the +court declared the trust closed and divided the estate among the members +in proportion to the money, property, and labor contributed by each of +them.(312) + +*172.* _Superioress, Money._—A person who contributed money for the +purpose of repairing a convent, the money being turned over to the +superioress and the convent not being incorporated, upon the project being +abandoned subsequently a personal judgment could not be obtained against +the superioress for the money contributed.(313) + +*173.* _Loan, Priest._—If a man lends money to a priest for the purpose of +paying a note against the congregation left at the bank for collection, he +can recover the money so paid from the congregation.(314) + +*174.* _Warden, Wages, Sexton._—A church warden who was hired by the +trustees of a church can not collect his wages by an action against the +priest of the parish.(315) A church accepting the services of a sexton is +liable to him therefor, whether the by-laws were observed in employing him +or not; nor will the fact that any party (as in this case the Ladies of +the Altar Society) agreed to contribute to his annual salary, defeat his +recovery of the whole from the church employing him.(316) + +*175.* _Sewing Circle, Money._—A church may maintain an action against a +sewing circle to require it to pay over money collected for the benefit of +the church.(317) + + + + + +CHAPTER XIV. MEETINGS + + +*176.* _Business, Notice, Meeting._—Where, in the transaction of the local +business of a religious society, whether incorporated or not, meetings of +the members shall become necessary, in order to make such meetings legal +due notice thereof should be given to every member. The notice should +specify the exact time and place where the meeting will be held, and no +change can be made except at such time and place. Unless some other place +is specified, the parish church is the proper place for holding meetings. +If the church should be locked and the key can not be found, a meeting +should be held at the door or at the nearest practical place to the church +where all the members may assemble, and then by a majority vote they may +adjourn to any convenient near place accessible to all the members.(318) + +*177.* _Acts, Void, Lawful, Clerk._—The acts of a majority of the members +of a corporation, unless done according to law and in conformity with the +charter and by-laws of the corporation, are absolutely null and void.(319) +The only lawful manner by which a congregation can express itself, is by a +meeting regularly called and held upon due notice.(320) The notice of a +meeting should be authorized by the trustees or other authority of the +church, and given to all the members. The clerk of the board of trustees, +unless authorized to do so, has no authority to sign the name of the +members of the board to a notice, and a meeting called in that way is +illegal.(321) + +*178.* _Special Meeting, Notice._—When a meeting is special, the notice +must state for what purpose the meeting is called. If it fails to do so it +is void, and unless all the members are present and consent to the holding +of the meeting, all business transacted is illegal and void.(322) Notice +of a special meeting that states one specific purpose for which it is +called, and then states “to transact any other business that may legally +come before the meeting,” is not good for any purpose except the one +specified.(323) + +*179.* _Meeting, Consent._—A valid meeting can not be held by a +corporation, unless notice has been given in conformity with the laws and +rules and regulations of the corporation or the consent of every person +who is entitled to be present at the holding of such meeting. In the +latter case the consent should be in writing and signed by all the +members.(324) However, a person who attends a meeting and takes part in it +without objection, is estopped from raising the question of notice.(325) + +*180.* _Notice, Principal Service, Custom._—When a rule of a church +required notice of a meeting to be given at the principal service, a +notice given at an earlier service only, was void.(326) But where the +ordinances of a church specified that the election of officers should be +at least six days before the end of their term, and it became the custom +of the church to hold the election on a movable holiday which sometimes +was less than six days, the election was held valid.(327) + +*181.* _Adjournment._—Where a meeting was noticed for one day and held on +a different day without notice of adjournment, all acts done were void and +the officers elected were neither _de jure_ nor _de facto_ officers.(328) + +*182.* _Proof of the Notice._—The proper proof of the notice would be the +return of the officer serving the notice, in some States; and in others an +affidavit of the person who served the notice. The proof of the services +of a summons would be sufficient unless there is some other law or rule to +the contrary.(329) + +*183.* _Presiding Officer._—When the laws of the organization provide who +shall preside at a meeting, but the minister contrary to such laws and +against objections presided over the majority of the congregation, and the +minority was presided over by the proper person, and both elected +officers, the officers elected by the minority were the lawful ones.(330) +However, where a meeting is presided over without objection by a member +instead of the proper officer, the acts of the body are lawful.(331) + +*184.* _Voters, Rules._—Unless the laws of the State otherwise provide, +every religious organization has the right to determine who shall vote at +its meetings and elections. If those provisions are reasonable, they are +lawful. Under such provisions it has been repeatedly held that where there +are rules requiring annual subscriptions to the church,(332) only those +who rented and paid for pews, or those who paid a certain annual tax, or +those who went to communion, were entitled to vote.(333) And where there +was no rule, it was held that one who has not contributed to the +church(334) and persons who attended church only occasionally and +contributed only when they attended, were not qualified voters.(335) In +the last case it was stated that a qualified voter is one who has attended +regularly during the year and has contributed to the support of the +church. + +*185.* _Quorum, Majority._—A quorum of a congregation usually consists of +those present at a duly called regular meeting, and a majority of those +present is sufficient to carry questions, unless by rule or law otherwise +provided.(336) But where there is a definite body in a corporation which +has established no other rule, a majority of the members of the +corporation constitute a quorum.(337) Where the minutes of the clerk +stated that upon due notice the members of the corporation met, a quorum +is presumed.(338) + +*186.* _Votes, Challenge, Inspectors, Casting Vote._—The reception of +illegal votes does not invalidate an election unless they change the +result.(339) If the presiding officer refuses to allow a qualified voter +to vote, the right may be enforced through civil courts.(340) When votes +have been received without challenge, it is then too late to raise the +objection that the persons have no right to vote.(341) It is the duty of +the inspectors to determine the qualifications of an elector at the time +that he offers to vote, and before he votes; and if they decide in the +exercise of their judgment, without malice or improper motives, the +regularity of the election can not be questioned.(342) When a rule allows +the presiding officer to vote and another rule states that he shall have +the casting vote in case of a tie vote, he still had the right to cast the +decisive vote.(343) Illegal voting in a religious society probably is not +an indictable offense, but it is a disorderly act.(344) + +*187.* _Written Notice, Prayer Meeting._—Where a five days’ written notice +is required to hold church meetings, an oral notice given on Sunday +evening at the prayer meeting is not sufficient for a meeting on the +following Wednesday. But a vote taken on Sunday to hire the minister and +fix his salary, is not void.(345) Churches and benefit societies, such as +insurance fraternities, being charitable organizations, may do business +concerning such association on Sunday.(346) + +*188.* _Expulsion, Damages._—A man who has been wrongfully expelled from a +temperance society for religious reasons may recover damages +therefor.(347) + + + + + +CHAPTER XV. CHURCH RECORDS + + +*189.* _Evidence, Entries, Minutes._—The record of the proceedings of a +religious society is evidence as to its doings, both in its own tribunals +and the courts of the State. Such record consists of entries required to +be made by the laws or rules of the society, the laws of the State, and +the minutes adopted by the society. Therefore, it is of the greatest +importance that it be kept with great exactness, omitting nothing that is +important.(348) Also, the minutes of all the meetings should be correct +before being duly adopted. All erasures and interlineations should be +certified by the clerk and then signed by him. + +*190.* _Uniformity._—Every entry required to be kept by the laws of the +State as well as the rules of the Church, should be kept as to births, +marriages, and death. Every diocese should have uniform record books in +all parishes and every pastor should keep blanks printed in the form of a +page of the record book, to issue certificates when required. + +*191.* _Marriage, Death, Baptism, Birth, Church Records._—The church +records duly kept in accordance with the discipline of the church, are +admissible in evidence to prove marriage, death, and baptism. Where the +record is incomplete, as giving the date of baptism only, it is not +admissible in proof of date of birth. But if it gives the date of birth, +it is _prima facie_ proof thereof.(349) + +*192.* _Certified Copies._—Under statutes, certified copies of the record +made by the custodian thereof are admissible in evidence in any case where +the original would be admissible. Also, one who had compared a copy with +the original record may testify to the same. The rule, as given, +substantially prevails under statutes in the following States: Alabama, +Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, +Minnesota, Missouri, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin; +and also, in Ontario, Manitoba, and the Dominion of Canada. + +*193.* _Rule of Admissibility._—A certified copy of the record of a +baptism taken from a church register by the parish priest, when admissible +at the place where such record is kept, as in Ireland, is admissible to +prove the same fact in the State of Missouri.(350) + +*194.* _Proper Record._—A book kept by a minister, which contained a +regular statement in proper form of the admission of members, choice of +officers, and transaction of business of the church, which was the only +book kept by the parish, is the proper record of the church.(351) + +*195.* _Name, Record._—The author would like to emphasize the importance +of correct records. Frequently we find no Christian name given in the +records of birth, which practically makes the record worthless. When a +child is born it is entitled to a name, immediately, which should be given +and be correct. At least the first Christian name should be correct; a +mistake in a middle name is not material. This is true of deeds and +records of all kinds, but practically of births, deaths, and +marriages.(352) + + + + + +CHAPTER XVI. CHURCH TRIBUNALS + + +*196.* _Jurisdiction, Privileges._—It is usual for every fraternity to +have a tribunal of its own for the trial of members who break its laws or +violate its discipline. Within their jurisdiction, the laws of the State +give such tribunals great privileges and courts show them great respect. +The Freemasons, the Knights of Columbus, etc., and most of the churches, +have such courts.(353) + +*197.* _Trial, Property, Priest._—In most of the States a court will not +interfere with the fair trial of a church tribunal. Neither will the court +entertain a controversy concerning the title or right of possession of +real or personal property excepting at the instance of some person +claiming a right thereto derived from or recognized by the law of the +State or of the United States.(354) But when the bishop has deprived a +subordinate priest of his authority to officiate as such, he may enjoin +the priest from making use of the church property.(355) + +*198.* _Doubt, Legal Rights._—The foregoing rule has some doubt cast on it +in Delaware and Massachusetts. The investigation of a dispute between +members of a church by a committee according to church regulations, +consented to by the parties, in which both take part, can have no effect +on their legal rights. If the State law provides for cases of the kind, it +is superior and must be submitted to. Also, an award or proceeding of a +committee is not evidence for or against either party. However, any +statement made, or admissions of the parties, if not of a recognized +confidential nature, may be given in evidence on the trial in a court of +the State.(356) The judgment of a mutual ecclesiastical council legally +convoked will not bind either party rejecting it.(357) + +*199.* _Bishop, Priest, Redress._—When a bishop removes a priest in the +regular way according to the rules and discipline of his church, the +priest has no redress.(358) Also, when a priest has submitted his case to +the church tribunal according to the discipline of his church, he must +abide by its decision, excepting where his civil rights or property rights +as a citizen are involved, when he may appeal to the laws of the +land.(359) + +*200.* _Trial, Counsel._—The question whether a minister on trial in a +church tribunal is entitled to be heard by counsel or attorneys depends +upon the laws of the church, and it can not be said as a matter of law +that he is entitled to counsel.(360) + +*201.* _Removal, Suspension, Trial._—In the United States under the laws +and discipline of the Catholic Church a priest may be removed from the +charge of a congregation at the pleasure of the bishop, without trial; but +he can not be suspended from his priestly functions without specific +accusation and trial.(361) + +*202.* _Charges, Fair Trial, Hearsay Evidence._—When a clergyman or +officer is to be removed or a member of the congregation is to be +excommunicated, it is necessary to fully state the charges against him and +give him an opportunity for a fair trial according to the laws and rules +of the religious society before rendering final judgment. All the +allegations of the complaint should be made upon positive knowledge of the +complainant or upon evidence that is admissible to prove the case in +court. Rumor or gossip, known as mere hearsay evidence, is not sufficient +to base a charge against the character of any one.(362) + +*203.* _Trial, Testimony, Slander._—A church judgment, where there has +been a full and fair trial or when members submit to the church tribunal, +and the judgment has only been rebuke, censure, suspension, or +excommunication, is usually upheld by the courts; and when the testimony +given on such trial is concerning immoral or scandalous conduct or crime, +if those taking part act in good faith and within the scope of the +authority of the church, they are protected by law and not liable to an +action for damages for libel or slander.(363) + +*204.* _Remedies, Secular Courts._—In cases involving church doctrine and +discipline only, all remedies within the church must be exhausted by a +member before the secular courts will interfere, if they will interfere at +all.(364) + +*205.* _Notice, Waiver._—When the laws of the church provide the tribunal +and procedure, if the person proceeded against avoids the service of the +notice or refuses to submit to the court, the notice of trial required to +be served might thereby be considered waived and the tribunal might +proceed with the trial in the absence of the accused.(365) + +*206.* _Appeal, Decision, Limitation._—The right to appeal from one court +to another of higher jurisdiction is generally recognized.(366) If after +trial in the lower tribunal of the Church, an appeal is taken, the +decision on the appeal is binding upon the parties and also upon the +inferior tribunal.(367) In the Anglican and some other churches, there is +no limitation as to time when offenses against the discipline of the +church may be inquired into.(368) + +The Catholic Church has a limitation as to prescriptive rights, to-wit: +“Three years in case of movable property; ten years in case of a right, or +of immovable property, _inter praesentes_; twenty years in the same case, +_inter absentes_.”(369) Also, there are limitations in canonical cases, +varying from one to twenty years.(370) There is no statute of limitation +on lawful debts. + +*207.* _Procedure, Judge, Juror, Witness._—If there are no rules of +procedure prescribed by the church tribunal, the proper practice is to +follow the State courts; as, for example, where the State law forbids an +officer of the court who has an interest in the proceeding to sit as judge +or juror, the same would apply to the church tribunal, it being the common +law of the land. Also, in States where a person who is interested in a +matter is not a competent witness, in the absence of a different rule in +the church, the same rule would apply in the church tribunal.(371) + +*208.* _Catholic Discipline._—A church member has no right to sue any one +in holy orders in the civil court without leave. That is, a layman or +priest should obtain leave of the bishop to sue a priest. In some +countries it is ground for excommunication to violate the rule. This rule +is analogous to the general rule that a sovereign state can not be sued +without its consent.(372) In this country, where there is no +ecclesiastical court recognized in law, leave is rarely asked.(373) + + + + + +CHAPTER XVII. STATE COURTS + + +*209.* _Decision, Ecclesiastical Matter._—The decision of the highest +tribunal of the church on a purely ecclesiastical matter will not be +disturbed by civil courts unless it is in open defiance and express +violation of the constitution of such body.(374) + +*210.* _Right of Property, Civil Rights._—Where there are several church +tribunals one above another, when the highest tribunal having jurisdiction +of the case has decided a question as to the right of property, a civil +court will accept such decision of the church tribunal as conclusive.(375) +The courts give way to the usages and regulations of the church so far as +they are not inconsistent with the constitution and laws of the +State.(376) As far as civil rights are concerned, the statute of +limitations may be pleaded even where those rights are founded upon some +law or rule of the denomination.(377) + +*211.* _Creed, Factions, Property, Management._—The supreme court +exercises no ecclesiastical jurisdiction, but accepts what the highest +ecclesiastical authority in each church promulgates as the faith and +practice of that church, and will not determine for itself what that faith +or creed is in order to establish the rights of respective factions in the +church to the church property. But a majority of a congregation that +secedes from the church and forms a new organization can not claim any of +the property.(378) The civil courts will not interfere with church +management so far as concerns the spiritual discipline of the members, but +where civil rights of property are involved, the courts may determine +them.(379) The civil rights of a religious society or its members are +within the jurisdiction of the State courts.(380) + +*212.* _Trust, Court of Equity._—A conveyance in trust for the use of a +church vests the use in the church and it will be protected by a court of +equity.(381) + +*213.* _Injunction, Closing Church, Paying Money, Disturbances._—A court +of equity will issue an injunction against the trustees of a church from +wrongfully closing it or keeping it closed even against a small +minority.(382) Church property vested in trustees of a religious body is +held under trust and a court of equity has jurisdiction to enforce the +trust.(383) A court of equity may restrain the trustees of a church from +paying money to a duly deposed minister.(384) But a court of equity will +not interfere to quell religious disturbances when no question as to +property or civil rights is involved. The board of trustees of a church +can not remove a priest against the will of the congregation.(385) + +*214.* _Suits, Parties._—Where a number of persons have contributed to the +erection of a church, it is not necessary for all who contribute to join +in an action to restrain a sale of the property for mercantile +purposes.(386) Any member of a church not incorporated may come into a +court of equity in behalf of himself and others and enforce the execution +of a trust in favor of the church.(387) The same rule would apply to a +church where any one in authority is violating the law.(388) If several +congregations of a diocese are interested in litigation, to hold all the +property of the diocese liable for the debt of a parish, each congregation +is entitled to be made a party.(389) + +*215.* _Complaint._—A complaint that the plaintiffs hold one doctrinal +standard and the defendants another is sufficiently definite without +explaining the difference between the two.(390) + +*216.* _Church Tribunal, Courts._—Courts are reluctant to interfere in the +church doctrine or discipline or inquire into the regularity of the +proceedings of the church tribunal. When such tribunal has deposed a +pastor or expelled a member, it is final. However, in contracts, property +rights, and civil rights of a citizen, the courts take jurisdiction. It is +no defense to a pastor’s expulsion that there is salary due him.(391) + +*217.* _Unincorporated Congregation, Actions, Interest._—An unincorporated +congregation may be sued on contract in its associate capacity, though no +persons are named as trustees or committeeman.(392) In all actions by or +against a congregation the civil courts will not permit suits to be +brought by complainants who have no interest either legal or equitable in +the temporalities of the church.(393) A suit against a society of Shakers +consisting of indefinite membership with changing additions, withdrawals, +and deaths, whose property is held in common without any individual +interest, may properly be brought in equity as the remedy at law would be +inadequate.(394) + +*218.* _Blasphemy, Sabbath, Lord’s Prayer, Bible._—Christianity is a part +of the common law of the United States; it is on this ground that +blasphemy and violation of the Sabbath are made criminal offenses and that +the Lord’s Prayer and the Bible are used in the schools.(395) + + + + + +CHAPTER XVIII. EVIDENCE + + +*219.* _Judicial Notice._—A church takes judicial notice without proof of +its own rules, laws, and doctrines. Every other fact should be proved +according to the rules of evidence of the church, and in the absence of a +church rule the following rules of the courts of this country should +prevail: + +1. Nothing should be admitted in evidence unless it directly proves or +disproves an evidentiary fact forming a link of a chain of facts that will +prove a fact in issue. + +2. It is sufficient to prove the substance of the issue, unless the exact +word or thing forms the issue. + +3. The burden of proof is on the one who asserts the fact, whether it is +stated affirmatively or negatively, and its proof is necessary to his +making a case. + +4. The best evidence that the case in its nature affords must be produced. + +5. Mere hearsay evidence shall not be allowed, excepting: + +(a) Matters of public or general interest. + +(b) Declaration against interest. + +(c) Dying declarations. + +(d) The testimony of witnesses since dead or absent. + +(e) Admissions. + +(f) Confessions. + +*220.* _Competent Witness._—Everybody who has the use of reason and +understands the import of an oath is a competent witness. + +*221.* _Confessions, Secret Societies._—At common law, confessions were +admissible; but there is no case in the United States since 1813 where the +court has sent a priest to jail for contempt for refusing to disclose a +confession, and no case in which a priest disclosed a confession. +Immediately after a priest was committed for contempt for refusing to +divulge the secrets of the confessional, in 1813, New York enacted the +following law: “No minister of the gospel, or priest of any denomination +whatsoever, shall be allowed to disclose any confession made to him in his +professional character, in the course of discipline enjoined by the rules +or practice of such denomination.” A similar law has been adopted in the +following States and Territories: Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, +Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, North +Dakota, Ohio, New York, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, +Wisconsin, Wyoming, and Hawaii. The secrets of a secret society are not +privileged, and a member as a witness must answer all relevant questions +in court.(396) + +*222.* _Privilege, Answer._—When a question concerning a matter privileged +is put, the priest should say: “I claim my privilege as a clergyman and +ask the court not to require me to answer”; “Whatever he said concerning +the matter, was said to me in the confessional as a priest”; “I talked +with him about the matter only in my professional capacity as a priest and +confessor”; “I did not speak to him about the matter except in my +confidential capacity as priest;” or a similar statement that sets up the +clergyman’s privilege without giving facts. A clergyman should not say: +“He confessed it to me,” or “He told it to me in confession,” or give any +other answer that implies what was said in confession, as jurors are +always watching for a hint of what was said. Neither should the priest +say, “I refuse to answer,” without stating that he refuses because of his +privilege as a clergyman. The trial judge or the attorneys trying the case +may put proper questions to determine whether the information was given +the witness in the confessional or in his capacity as confessor.(397) + +*223.* _Admissions, False Statements._—Admissions or statements made to a +clergyman not in his capacity of confidential adviser or in the course of +discipline, are not privileged.(398) Neither are false statements made to +a committee investigating charges; but all statements made to such a +committee or an officer of the church, unless false and made with malice, +are privileged.(399) + +*224.* _Anonymous Letter, Clergyman._—Where a priest received an anonymous +letter alleged to have been written by a defendant, which he read to her, +he was not disqualified from testifying that she was excited and that she +stated she had no idea how the fire started, and that the letter was +unknown to her, etc.(400) The mere fact that a communication is made to a +clergyman does not make it privileged. It is privileged only when made in +confidence of the relation and under such circumstances as to imply that +it should forever remain a secret in the breast of the confidential +adviser.(401) When a matter is privileged, it is not left to the witness +whether or not he shall testify concerning it; but he can not testify +without the consent of the other party.(402) + +*225.* _Voire Dire._—Where a priest made a preliminary examination of a +woman to ascertain her mental capacity to make a confession, her answers +in such preliminary examination were admissible in a contest on a will; +but her confession was not admissible.(403) + +*226.* _England, Confession._—The rule is now accorded priests in England, +but was not formerly. Where a priest turned a watch over to its owner, the +court ordered him, under pain of contempt, to tell where he got the +watch.(404) But in another case it was held that a priest need not divulge +the confession of a defendant who was held for crime.(405) + +*227.* _United States, Rules._—In the United States courts, the rule +prevails that such confidential communications to a priest shall not be +divulged.(406) + +*228.* _Presumptions, Usage._—The usage of a church or the laws of its +organization as a religious society, if they are to be considered in +deciding legal controversies, must be proved as facts.(407) In the absence +of proof, it will be presumed that subordinate bodies, as congregations, +can not dissolve their connection with the principal organization without +permission.(408) + +*229.* _Funeral Expenses._—Witnesses’ opinions as to the reasonable amount +for burial or as to the cost of a funeral being reasonable, are not +binding on a court or jury. The station of a man, the property that he +leaves, the life that he has followed, all should be considered by the +court. The whims and notions of societies and others are of minor +consideration. Those who make funeral expenses that are not allowed by the +court must pay them.(409) + + + + + +CHAPTER XIX. CONTRACTS + + +*230.* _Business, Religious Service._—A church organization has the legal +right to make any contract concerning its own affairs that is not +prohibited by its by-laws or its charter, subject to all laws of legal +contracts in the business world. When the consideration is a religious +service duly performed, there seems to be no objection to it. Therefore, a +minister may collect for preaching a sermon, attending the sick, or saying +prayers, or performing any other religious service. But an incorporated +church has no authority to enter into a contract for an ulterior purpose, +such as the employment of a vessel for the purpose of an excursion.(410) + +*231.* _Incorporated Body._—The only way a religious society that is +incorporated can make a contract is by a vote of the aggregate body or of +the board of trustees, or through an agent authorized by a vote of one +body or the other.(411) + +*232.* _Mortgage, Deficiency Judgment._—Where a mortgage had been +foreclosed against church property before the congregation was +incorporated, a deficiency judgment can not be rendered against such +church corporation.(412) But where a congregation was incorporated after a +debt had been incurred and took charge of the property, it assumed the +debt.(413) + +*233.* _Building Contracts._—The taking part in a meeting by voting and +appointing committees to make contracts will bind those taking part in all +contracts made in accordance with the directions of such meeting. In some +States the individuals are held only to the amount that each subscribes, +but in other States each individual is liable for the entire debt.(414) + +*234.* _Individual Promise, Subscriptions, Signature._—An individual +promise to give a donation to charity, can not be enforced.(415) But +subscriptions to build a church or other charitable institution or to pay +the salary of a clergyman when signed by more than one person, have been +held binding in some cases on the disputed rule of a-promise-for-a-promise +consideration.(416) In the foregoing cases the donor might revoke his +subscription or in case of his death his estate would not be liable.(417) +However, when expenses have been made or steps taken in the carrying out +of the object of the subscriptions, the general rule is that the +subscriptions become binding contracts.(418) If the object of the +subscriptions be abandoned or changed without the consent of the +subscriber, he is thereby released. A promissory note given for the +subscription, unless negotiated for value in due course of trade, does not +change the foregoing rules.(419) Where many persons subscribed to build a +church and some of them failed to pay, one who paid brought an action on +behalf of himself and others and collected the unpaid subscriptions.(420) +The defendant Nalty signed “Nalty Family, $1,000,” but he was held +personally liable.(421) + +*235.* _Special Purpose, Suit._—When money is subscribed for a special +purpose, as for rebuilding a church, it belongs to the church +organization; and in a suit to recover the money the action should be +brought in the name of the corporation, if incorporated, and if not +incorporated it should be brought in the name of the interested +party.(422) + +*236.* _Promise, Consideration._—A promise made by the owner of land to a +trustee for the benefit of a religious society, that he would convey the +land to such society if it would build a church thereon, is a good and +lawful consideration; and after work was begun on the church, the contract +was enforceable in a court of equity.(423) + + + + + +CHAPTER XX. PEWS + + +*237.* _Sold, Rented._—Prior to the Reformation pews were not sold nor +rented and every member had the right to sit wherever he pleased in the +body of the church. After the Reformation, the ordinary or bishop was +granted the right of “faculty” to rent or sell pews.(424) + +*238.* _Incorporeal Hereditament._—The English title in a pew is in the +nature of a right of way through another’s land; it is an incorporeal +hereditament. In the absence of express law, the title to pews in this +country is said to be in the nature of real estate, and in fact not very +different from the English title.(425) In some States the title is made +personal property by statute.(426) And in others the courts have inquired +into the law of the church and adjudged the title accordingly.(427) The +general rule is that the owner of a pew simply has an easement.(428) + +*239.* _Catholic Church, Pew Rights._—In the Catholic Church, by the canon +law, the ownership in or control over a pew is forbidden to laymen. +Notwithstanding that, if the party holding the title violates the rule of +the church by giving a deed to the pew-holder, the courts would probably +sustain his title.(429) However, as the clergy can neither rent nor sell +pews without becoming subject to the law of the land and the jurisdiction +of our courts, it is important to know what the law of the State is. + +*240.* _Land, Use, Rent Pews._—Where land was conveyed in trust to the +bishop of a diocese and his successors for the erection of a church for +the use of a congregation, the right to rent pews vested under the deed +and laws of the Catholic Church in the parish priest and not in the +trustees afterward elected, as the parish priest was the agent of the +bishop.(430) + +*241.* _Trustees, Sale in Perpetuity._—Without authority of law the +trustees of a church can not make an absolute sale in perpetuity of a pew +without any reservation of rent.(431) The sale of a pew in a church will +be determined in a case according to the particular facts.(432) + +*242.* _Pew, Right to Occupy, Conditions._—A grant of a church pew in +perpetuity does not give the owner an absolute right of property as a +grant of land in fee; but gives only a right to sit therein, although he +may maintain an action in court for protection of his rights.(433) In +Vermont a pewholder has only the right to occupy his seat during religious +services and holds it subject to the superior right of the society owning +the pew.(434) A condition in the deed to a pew that a holder about to +leave the congregation shall offer it to the society for a certain price, +is not invalid.(435) Where a pewholder held his pew by a certain agreement +and after the church had been remodeled he bought a different pew, the +conditions attached to the first pew did not apply to the last.(436) Pews +owned by the occupant pass to the heirs as real estate instead of going to +the executors as personal property in States where the title is in the +nature of the title to real estate.(437) + +*243.* _Tax, Assessment._—A tax assessed upon the pew of a religious +corporation in part for purposes not specifically named in a deed of the +pew, which alone gives the power to make such an assessment and which +strictly defines and limits such power, is invalid _in toto_.(438) The +right to make an assessment on pews must be founded upon law, else it can +not be enforced.(439) When a congregation sells pews at auction rent free +for the purpose of building a church, it has no power thereafter to assess +the pews for the salary of the minister.(440) + +*244.* _Pewholders’ Rights._—A pewholder has the exclusive right to occupy +his pew when the house is used for the purpose for which it was erected; +but he can not convert his pew to other purposes not contemplated.(441) If +he has paid his pew-rent according to agreement, he is entitled to use his +pew on all occasions when the house is occupied, even when it is open for +purposes different from those mentioned in the conveyance thereof; and he +has the right to exclude all others from his pew by fastening the door or +otherwise, and any one who enters his pew knowing the facts, is a +trespasser and liable to an action for damages.(442) The owner of a pew +has no right to put an offensive covering thereon nor use his pew in any +way to the annoyance of the congregation or not in keeping with the place +and conditions. By placing anything offensive about his pew, he may be +liable for maintaining a nuisance, and such offensive thing may be +removed; but, as far as possible, it must be removed without damaging the +pewholder’s property.(443) + +*245.* _Rebuilding, Remodeling._—An injunction was granted on the bill of +pewholders, restraining the authorities of the church from pulling it +down, as they were going to use the materials in the erection of a new +church on a different site. On the answer, the injunction was dissolved on +the ground that if the complainants had rights which would be violated, +there was a remedy at law and that the nature and extent of the injury +were not such as called for the interposition of a court of equity by +injunction.(444) Where a parish abandons an old church and builds a new +one it does not become liable to any pewholder for damages by reason +thereof unless it has acted wantonly or intentionally to injure the +pewholder.(445) But when it becomes necessary for the purpose of repairing +or remodeling a church, to destroy old pews, a pew built by a member under +contract with the church can not be removed or destroyed without +compensation.(446) Pew rights are subject to the right of the parish to +pull down and rebuild a church either as a matter of necessity or +expediency, but in the latter case the owner of a pew is entitled to +payment.(447) A pewholder has only the right to occupy his pew during +public worship, and when the church has become so out of repair that it +can not be used for public worship, the owner of a pew can recover only +nominal damages for injuries to his pew.(448) + +*246.* _Selling Pew on Execution._—In an action to recover the value of a +pew sold at auction, the merits of the case will be tried according to the +law of the land.(449) It is doubtful whether a pew in a church can be sold +for private debts of the pewholder.(450) It depends somewhat upon the +title and State law of exemptions.(451) To render an attachment of a pew +valid, it is not necessary for the officer to come in sight of the pew or +even to enter the church.(452) + +*247.* _Members, Pew._—Members of the congregation may be required to pay +for a pew or sitting in the church, and where a priest ejected a member +from the church because he would not rent a pew, he was sustained by the +court.(453) + +*248.* _Free Church, Seats, Lease._—The trustees of a free church may +assign seats and forcibly remove one from a seat without authority.(454) +Where a pew is real estate, a pewholder may acquire the right to it by +prescription in the usual way.(455) Where pews are not rented and the +members support the church by voluntary subscriptions, they have equal +right to the occupancy of the pews. But where the church builds the pews +and rents them, a man paying rent for a pew holds it under lease in the +nature of a lease to real estate. However, he does not obtain all the +rights of a lessee of land, and in many cases a rule of the church governs +the holding of pews, which will be observed by the State courts.(456) + +*249.* _Executors, Pew-Rent._—The executors of a pew owner are not bound +to pay pew-rent accrued after the owner’s death. + +*250.* _Voting, Pew-Rent, Arrears._—Where a church is incorporated and by +its charter or the laws of the State it has authority to make reasonable +by-laws, a by-law which prohibits any person from voting whose pew-rent is +in arrears for more than two years, is valid.(457) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXI. PROPERTY + + +*251.* _Unincorporated, Trustee._—The question whether an unincorporated +religious society may take a gift or devise, is determined by the law of +domicile.(458) Generally an unincorporated religious association can not +hold property in its assumed name, but it must be held by conveyance in +trust to a trustee named.(459) + +*252.* _Charter, By-Laws._—When the charter or by-laws of a church +corporation provide that they may be altered, such changes may, after the +execution and delivery of a deed, immediately adhere to the title.(460) + +*253.* _Suits, Corporation, Members._—Cases may occur in which the +corporation in its corporate capacity, or the society in its collective +capacity, may be a plaintiff or a defendant in a suit between it and one +or more members of the religious society in their individual capacity or +in their collective capacity, in a quasi-conspiracy or concerning other +torturous acts, or a collective contract.(461) + +*254.* _Deed, Court, Title._—A deed made in pursuance of an order of a +court having jurisdiction passes good title.(462) + +*255.* _Subscription, Lots._—Any one may convey title to a church as his +part of the subscription by merely marking it on a plat made by him, as +lots donated to such church.(463) + +*256.* _Misnomer, Identity._—The misnomer of a religious society or +corporation will not invalidate a mortgage where the identity of the +society can be clearly shown.(464) + +*257.* _Adverse Possession, Color of Title._—A religious corporation may +obtain title to land by adverse possession. The length of such possession +is determined by the laws of the State, the usual period being twenty +years.(465) Unless the laws of the State require it, color of title at the +time of asserting adverse possession need not be shown.(466) + +*258.* _Sale, Restrictions._—In some States when not restricted by the +laws of the organization the parish corporation may sell the premises in +order to pay the church debts. However, it is not a common law right.(467) + +*259.* _Deed._—A deed to “The Evangelical Order of Christians” was +sufficiently definite for a valid conveyance.(468) + +*260.* _Error._—A clerical error in the name of the grantee will not make +a deed void. However, when such error has been discovered, it should be +corrected.(469) + +*261.* _Mortgage, Bishop, Debts._—The archbishop of a church to which +property is bequeathed, can not mortgage it without authority from the +church or under the law.(470) Also, the bishop of a diocese to whom land +had been conveyed in trust for a particular congregation, could not +execute a valid mortgage thereon to secure his own indebtedness.(471) But +a religious society in the absence of prohibitionary legislation, has +power to mortgage its property to secure its debts.(472) + +*262.* _Deed, Trust, Fee._—A deed of land to a Catholic bishop and his +heirs and assigns forever in trust for a Catholic parish for the purpose +of a free burial ground, gave the bishop an estate in fee.(473) + +*263.* _Debts, Creditors._—A committee of a religious society authorized +to sell lands to raise money to pay its general debts, is not authorized +to execute a mortgage for the purpose of securing various creditors +holding claims; and the defect in such mortgage is not cured by a vote at +a subsequent meeting to which the committee made a report of its +action.(474) + +*264.* _Mortgage or Sale, Notice, Consent._—Whenever there is to be a +mortgage or sale of the church property, if it is to be done by the +corporation, it must be done strictly in accordance with the charter and +laws of the corporation, and if those do not provide therefor, every +member should receive a reasonable notice to attend a meeting of the +congregation and the question should be submitted to such meeting and a +vote taken thereon. If all the proceedings are regular and the proper +officers (president and secretary) of the corporation be authorized to +make a conveyance, it is good in law.(475) However, if the irregular acts +of officers or members of a congregation are subsequently ratified in a +lawful manner, they become binding.(476) When consent of the court is +required, it must be obtained.(477) + +*265.* _Title, Taxes, Judicial Notice._—If the title is in the bishop in +fee in accordance with church law it is not “owned by any religious +association” and is liable for taxes. The laws of the Catholic Church are +not the subject of judicial notice, but must be alleged and proved as any +other fact.(478) + +*266.* _Title, Diocese, Rule._—Where the title to the property of the +diocese was in the bishop for the use of the church and subsequently the +diocese was incorporated, the bishop was not divested of title and it was +still necessary to have the property conveyed by deed.(479) In some other +States, however, the contrary rule prevails.(480) + +*267.* _Priest, Deed, Funds._—Where it was claimed that a priest purchased +lands and took the deed in his own name and paid therefor with funds +belonging to the congregation, the conveyance will not be decreed by the +court only upon the clearest and most satisfactory evidence.(481) + +*268.* _Monks, Missions, Title._—The fact that the monks or priests were +at the head of the missions in California when it was acquired by the +United States, does not prove that the Catholic Church had universal +ownership of the property.(482) The acts of Congress giving the city of +San Antonio authority to sell public lands, was intended, no doubt, to +dispose of mission property, but it was held not to affect the Catholic +Church, the title to which had been confirmed by another act of +Congress.(483) + +*269.* _Texan Revolution, Land._—At the time of the Texan Revolution, a +Catholic church held no real estate of perfect title, but enjoyed only the +use of the land that it possessed and continued so to occupy after the +admission of Texas into the Union.(484) + +*270.* _Priest, Agent, Deed._—The priest in charge of a congregation is +the agent of the archbishop, and where the title to the real estate is +conveyed by absolute deed to the bishop, the congregation, against the +protest of the priest and without obtaining leave from the bishop, has no +right to tear down a church for the purpose of rebuilding or repairing +it.(485) And a priest in charge of mission property may maintain in his +name an action to recover its possession.(486) + +*271.* _Devise, Uncertainty._—A devise of property “to the Roman Catholic +Orphans” of a certain diocese, making the bishop of the diocese executor +of the will and giving him power to sell the property and use the proceeds +for the benefit of the Roman Catholic orphans, is void for +uncertainty.(487) + +*272.* _Donor, Ambiguous Provision._—The religious convictions of the +donor may be shown for the purpose of construing an ambiguous provision of +a deed or will.(488) + +*273.* _Trust, Evidence._—Without any trust being declared in writing, +parol evidence can not be allowed to prove that the Catholic Church and +parsonage is held in trust for the congregation by the bishop of the +diocese, notwithstanding that the moneys for purchasing the lands and +putting up such buildings were collected by subscriptions and +contributions made to the priest in charge under the law, usage, and +polity of the Roman Catholic Church.(489) At common law land may be +granted to pious uses before there is a grantee to take it. In the +meantime, the title is in abeyance.(490) Where the title to parsonage +lands is in the minister as a sole corporation, on his death the title +remains in abeyance until a successor is appointed.(491) + +*274.* _Money, Control._—Money raised by a Catholic congregation for the +purpose of building a church does not come under the absolute control of +the bishop or priest, although put into the hands of the latter for safe +keeping. It is subject to the control of the congregation, although the +members of the congregation refused to obey the command of the bishop of +the diocese to consolidate with another church to which the priest was +removed.(492) + +*275.* _Church, Building, Removing._—Where subscriptions were secured to +build a church at a particular place as a memorial to a certain person, a +congregation may be enjoined from tearing down the building and removing +it to another place.(493) But a court of equity will not prevent the +removal of a church where a majority of the congregation favors it, +although a legal meeting had not been held to determine the matter.(494) + +*276.* _Church, Use, Division._—A church guild that erected a building +adjoining a church for parish purposes, with the assent of the +congregation, can not deny the authority of the church and use the +building for other purposes.(495) But if members are improperly excluded +from the use of the church property they must appeal to the courts for +redress and can not resort to acts of trespass to gain entrance into a +church.(496) A court of equity will compel persons having charge of the +temporalities of a church, whether incorporated or not, to faithfully +perform their trust and to prevent the diversion of the property from its +original purposes. The court will not interfere in strictly religious +matters.(497) + +*277.* _Spanish Territory._—When Alabama was a part of Spanish territory, +a deed of land “to His Catholic Majesty for the purpose of building +thereon a parochial church and dwelling-house for the officiating priest,” +the money being paid out of the royal treasury, did not constitute the +King of Spain a trustee for the church or transfer to the church in equity +a title to the lots.(498) + +*278.* _Trust, Purposes, Doctrines._—When a conveyance of a lot is made to +certain persons of a religious society and their successors in trust for +religious purposes, all the members become beneficiaries in equal degree +notwithstanding some of them may have contributed larger sums than +others.(499) Land conveyed to a church for valuable consideration belongs +to the church, whatever change may take place in its religious doctrines; +and if a minority secedes on the ground that they are the ones who retain +the original tenets of the church, they can not take with them either the +whole or pro rata share of the church property.(500) + +*279.* _Control, Revenues._—The trustees of a corporation of a church or +of a religious society have entire control over the revenues of such +body.(501) + +*280.* _Leave to Purchase, Title, Canons of the Church._—A congregation +wanted to buy a church and priest’s house, but the archbishop refused +leave to purchase, but granted permission to keep the premises for +religious purposes for a time. The members formed a society and bought and +took title in the name of the “Lithuanian Benefit Society of St. Anthony.” +Then the archbishop wrote them a letter requiring the deed of the premises +to be put in his name, which the congregation refused to do. A part of the +congregation brought a suit in equity to enforce the transfer from the +society to the archbishop. The court held that if the congregation was +under the church and acknowledged its authority, the title must be settled +by the canons of the church; otherwise, the majority of the congregation, +in a duly called meeting, should determine where the title should be +vested.(502) + +*281.* _Cemetery, Authority._—When a congregation that had title to a +cemetery for many years entrusted the management and sale of the lots to +the priest, he had thereby authority to create servitudes, such as alleys +to lots, which become binding on the congregation and all third +persons.(503) + +*282.* _Real Estate, Purpose._—A church has no power to acquire and hold +real estate for any purpose other than that of promoting the object of its +creation, and any contract entered into for a purchase of real estate as a +matter of speculation is _ultra vires_ and void.(504) + +*283.* _Limitation, Lands._—A statute of the State prohibiting a religious +society from holding more than twenty acres, applies to a single parish or +congregation and not to the entire denomination when it consists of more +than one congregation.(505) + +*284.* _Conditions, Bequest, Deed, Time._—Where property has been devised +for a particular purpose or on certain conditions attached thereto, the +law may be invoked to protect the fund according to the bequest.(506) And +where a deed contained a clause that the lots should never be sold nor +used in any other way except for the benefit of a specified Protestant +Church, although the deed contained no clause of forfeiture, when the +congregation sold the property the grantor was entitled to have the deed +set aside and the title re-vested in himself.(507) And a grant made upon +condition that a church be erected thereon, prevents the grantee from +conveying it for other purposes without the consent of the grantor or his +heirs.(508) But where a devise was made on condition that a church be +built on the property within three years, the provision being a condition +subsequent, a court has the right to extend the time.(509) + +*285.* _Will, Forfeiture._—The provision in a will or deed that land shall +be used for purposes of a certain church, may create a trust for the +benefit of the church only and not a condition the breach of which would +work a forfeiture.(510) When a condition is put in a deed that it shall be +forever used as a burial ground for the interment of bodies, it is +doubtful whether the grantor and grantee together may change the uses of +the property. Therefore, it is important in taking deeds to cemeteries to +have no condition whatever, unless such conditions are desired.(511) + +*286.* _Condition, Quit-Claim._—After conveying land upon a specified +condition, the grantor then gave a quit-claim deed, and the court held +that that relieved the grant from the condition.(512) + +*287.* _Bishop, Trust, Successors._—A deed of land to the bishop of a +church for a Protestant Episcopal church in fee simple, created a trust +and on the death of such bishop the title passed to his successors.(513) +Where a grantee in a deed absolute on its face, is in fact archbishop of +the Roman Catholic Church for his diocese, its canons and decrees +regulating the mode of acquiring and holding church property are competent +evidence to show that the property is so held in trust for purposes for +public worship and other charitable uses. And property so held by a +Catholic bishop in trust for the diocese, or in trust for a congregation, +school, cemetery, or asylum, for the separate use of each, is not +chargeable with any part of the expenses of another one or for improving +the church property generally in the diocese.(514) + +*288.* _Trustees, Vacancy._—When land is conveyed to certain persons as +trustees of a church and their successors lawfully appointed, a court of +equity will not step in to fill a vacancy but will leave that to be filled +by the church in accordance with its discipline.(515) But an attempt to +sell real estate of a religious society against the provisions of its +charter, will be prevented by a court of equity.(516) + +*289.* _Church, Majority, Change._—When property is conveyed to a church +having a well-known doctrine, faith, and practice, a majority of the +members has not the authority or power by reason of a change of religious +views to carry the property thus dedicated to a new and different +doctrine.(517) + +*290.* _Title, Harmony, Division._—The title to church property in a +divided congregation is in that part of the congregation which acts in +harmony with the law of the denomination; and the ecclesiastical laws and +principles which were accepted among them before the dispute began, are +the standard for determining which party is right.(518) In other cases the +division of church property, where there is a division of the +congregation, depends upon its particular facts.(519) Where $400 was +bequeathed to a Lutheran congregation in S——, there being at the time of +the making of the will but one Lutheran congregation in the place, but +subsequently a majority of the trustees and members with the pastor left +the church and built a new one, the old church continued vested with the +title to the property and all its funds.(520) + +*291.* _Perversion, Misuse, Suit._—Unless there is substantial departure +from the purpose of the trust which amounts to a perversion of it, a court +of equity will not interfere to prevent the misuse or abuse of a trust of +a religious nature. In actions in the State court, if the church is not +incorporated, an action should be brought in the names of the members +collectively, and if they are too numerous to be all named, the suit may +be brought in the name of one or more of them for the whole. The same +rules apply to religious societies when sued. However, in some dioceses, +particularly in the Catholic Church, the title to the church property is +in the bishop and he thereby becomes an interested party who must be made +either a plaintiff or a defendant.(521) + +*292.* _Rights, Contracts, Torts, Crimes._—Vested property rights, +contracts, torts, and crimes, are usually subject to the laws of the State +and the control and judgment of a church tribunal is seldom final. While +the State courts have no ecclesiastical jurisdiction and can not revise or +question ordinary acts of church discipline, they have the power to +adjudicate conflicting claims of parties to the church property or the use +of it.(522) + +*293.* _Cemetery, Assessments._—Where a lot was bought for the purpose of +building a church but was used for a cemetery, and a church was built at +another place and the deed to the lot was taken in the name of the +trustees, the pastor and a member of the church corporation were not the +proper parties to bring an action to restrain the State from selling the +lot to pay the assessments for pavement, as they had no legal or equitable +interest for the protection of which they could claim the interposition of +a court of equity.(523) + +*294.* _Burned, Revert, Vested._—The fact that a church on lands donated +to the parish, on condition of sustaining the church, burned down, the +title did not revert to the grantor’s heirs.(524) Also land granted a +bishop for church uses, vested immediately in him and was not forfeited +because it was not used for church purposes.(525) + +*295.* _Abandoned, Revert._—Land granted to trustees and their successors +forever in trust to erect a Methodist church, according to its rules and +discipline, which was used for such church for a long time and then +abandoned and sold to parties who converted it into a blacksmith shop, did +not thereupon revert in the absence of a provision to that effect.(526) + +*296.* _Uses and Trusts._—The chapter of the Wisconsin statutes on +religious societies, although not included in the same title as the +chapter abolishing all uses and trusts excepting as therein created, was +not intended to prohibit the trusts expressly authorized by the +former.(527) + +*297.* _Trust Funds, Account._—Where a member of the church received funds +to invest in his own name for the benefit of the church, he will be +obliged in a court of equity to give full account for the money and its +profits.(528) + +*298.* _Fund, Diverted, Split._—A fund created for a particular purpose, +as the education of children in the faith and doctrines of a denomination +at the time the fund is created, can not be diverted from its original +object.(529) Neither can such a fund be split up when a congregation is +divided, but must be retained as created.(530) + +*299.* _Church, Personalty._—A church removed from its foundation and put +on rollers was severed from the realty and became personal property.(531) + +*300.* _Lease, Purposes._—A religious literary society and scientific +corporation has power to lease part of a building owned by it for +theatrical and operatic purposes.(532) + +*301.* _Salary, Lien, Equity._—The church building and the land on which +it stands have been held subject to the payment of a debt due for the +salary of a pastor of the congregation owning such property.(533) A +contractor is entitled to a lien on the church property for work done on +the building.(534) A person who became liable for the debts of the +congregation incurred in the purchase of church property, obtained relief +in equity by subjecting the church property to a sale.(535) + +*302.* _Bankruptcy, Creditors._—There is no provision of law for a church +corporation to make an assignment in bankruptcy. However, the church +corporation may be sued and a receiver appointed to take possession of the +property and sequester the assets.(536) But where assignments in +bankruptcy and a sale and conveyance of church property are lawful, the +church property may be assigned for the benefit of the creditors.(537) + +*303.* _Jurisdiction, Process._—In order to obtain jurisdiction where +there are contentions between various persons claiming to be officers, the +only safe rule is to serve the process on all those who are in the offices +or claim the offices upon the occupants of which the papers must be +served.(538) + +*304.* _States, Property, Restrictions._—Some States restrict the quantity +and use of property that a religious society or church may hold. Other +States have no restrictions; but nearly all the States have some statutory +law on the subject, which is changed so frequently that it would be +useless to give the provisions of such law in this work.(539) + +*305.* _Land, Limitation._—A statute of Illinois relating to Catholic +societies contains no limitations on property rights, but it was held that +the general law applied, and that an organization having ten acres could +not acquire additional land by devise. A conveyance of land to a +corporation after it has taken all the land allowed by law, is void.(540) +In Kentucky where a church is limited to fifty acres and a devise was made +to a church for the benefit of foreign missions, it was held valid under a +statute providing that all devises for relief of aged, impotent, poor +people, churches, or for any other charitable or humane purposes, shall be +valid.(541) Maryland’s peculiar law by which leave must be obtained from +the Legislature for a conveyance of more than two acres of land, has been +construed to give the Legislature authority to ratify a conveyance that +otherwise would be void under the statute.(542) Also, it was held in the +same case that a church might acquire more land, but that it would be +restricted with regard to its use. A statute prohibiting a religious +society from holding more than twenty acres of land applied to a single +religious society and not to the denomination.(543) Where the territorial +law provided that no religious corporation should hold real estate of +greater value than $50,000, a receiver was appointed for the Mormon +corporation.(544) + +*306.* _Corporations, Bequests._—Foreign religious corporations may be +entitled to recover bequests made to them in some States; but the general +rule is that a foreign religious society has no better right to take +property by devise than a domestic corporation.(545) When the statute +requires a conveyance to specify the purpose for which a religious society +takes land, the failure to so specify renders the deed void.(546) But the +Young Men’s Christian Association was declared not within the limitation +because it was not formed for pecuniary benefit and profit and was not +under the control of any one denomination nor formed for religious +worship.(547) + +*307.* _Collateral Attack._—A devise of land to a religious society which +will increase the title beyond the amount that is allowed by statute, can +not be attacked collaterally by a private individual.(548) It is for the +State and not for the individual to make inquiry into excess on the part +of a religious society in its accumulation.(549) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXII. RELIGIOUS SERVICES + + +*308.* _Worship, Discipline, Innovations._—The denomination itself, +according to its rules and regulations, determines what services shall +form a part of its public worship. The inferior authority in the church +has no right to violate the discipline by innovations. Whether or not +devotional singing may be accompanied with instrumental music, must be +determined by those who administer the discipline of the church.(550) + +*309.* _Doctrines, Temporal Affairs._—The fact that the congregation sells +the pews does not give the owners the right to determine what doctrines +shall be preached in the church, nor who shall preach them.(551) A +majority of a local church can not change the faith of the church against +the protest of the minority.(552) The corporation of the congregation is +governed by the majority only in temporal affairs.(553) However, some of +the Protestant churches are so independent that a vote of the congregation +may transfer them from one denomination to another.(554) + +*310.* _Contributions, Presbyterians, Methodists._—Where certain persons +by contributions built a church and the title was taken and held by the +Presbyterians who permitted all other denominations to hold services +therein, all of which was a condition of the subscriptions for +establishing the church, when the Presbyterians sold out to the Methodists +and they held it for their own exclusive use, those who contributed the +money had the right to resort to the court to enforce their rights to +worship in such church.(555) + +*311.* _True Religion, Courts._—Ordinarily the civil courts do not +interfere where there is a question as to which of two or more parties is +adhering to the true religious teaching of the denomination. If no +question of property or civil rights arises, the court will not +interfere.(556) + +*312.* _Heresy, Injunction._—Where a minister did not preach the doctrine +and the entire system of Calvinistic theology received and taught by that +denomination, he had no right to the pulpit of the church, and the court +granted an injunction against his officiating therein.(557) + +*313.* _Bequest, Sects, Condition._—Where a bequest was made to erect a +place of worship with the privilege for other sects to worship therein and +forever to be used as such, the trustees in whom the title vested had no +authority to sell without the consent of the grantor or his heirs; and the +congregation having sold the church property and it having been thereafter +used for a store, the grantor’s heirs had a right of entry for condition +broken.(558) + +*314.* _Sexton, Undertaker, Authorities._—The sexton who has charge of the +church property may lawfully remove from the church an undertaker who, +after being warned to desist and leave, persists in conducting the funeral +in violation of rules prescribed by the authorities of the church.(559) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXIII. BEQUESTS, DEVISES, AND GIFTS + + +*315.* _Statutes, Wills._—In some States a religious society can not take +under a will, and a bequest of money to a church is void.(560) In +Connecticut any devise to a religious corporation not expressly authorized +by statute, is void.(561) In Maryland leave to devise land to a religious +society must be obtained from the Legislature.(562) In all the States it +is safest to consult and carefully follow the statute in drawing a will. + +*316.* _Masses, Alabama._—Formerly as a rule of the English common law, it +was held that bequests and devises for the purpose of having Masses said +for the soul of the deceased, were void as superstitious uses; but under +Article 1 of the Amendments to the United States Constitution, and under +similar provisions in the constitutions of the several States, the English +rule does not prevail in the United States. However, Alabama adopted the +English rule.(563) By reading the foot-note to the Alabama case, it will +be found that a majority of the States hold that such bequests are +lawful.(564) Even in Alabama if the bequest had been to a clergyman or a +certain person and accompanied by a request to say Masses, the court might +have allowed it.(565) + +*317.* _Name, Bequest, Corporation._—A mistake in a name does not render a +bequest or a gift void if the person intended can be identified.(566) +Also, a devise may be made to a corporation not yet organized and when it +is organized the gift or devise will vest. During the interim, it will +remain in abeyance.(567) + +*318.* _Clergyman, Undue Influence._—A clergyman who is a grantee in a +deed from a parishioner, although deriving no benefit therefrom, has the +burden of showing good faith in the transaction as the law presumes that +he is guilty of undue influence. This presumption is further strengthened +by proof of the enfeebled condition of the grantor by age and illness and +his susceptibleness to influence. Where the property conveyed in trust for +the parish was greatly in excess of its needs, the deed was set +aside.(568) + +*319.* _Contest, Secession._—In case of a devise to a church which is +claimed by two societies, it is the duty of the court to decide in favor +of those who adhere to the ecclesiastical government of the church which +was in operation at the time the trust was declared.(569) However, to +maintain such action it must be brought by the proper parties.(570) + +*320.* _Bequests, Membership._—Bequests left to individuals on condition +that they shall remain members of a certain church, can be obtained only +by complying with such condition.(571) + +*321.* _Conditions, Religious Tenets._—In order to determine the +conditions of a trust the religious tenets of the donor may be shown to +aid in construction of ambiguous provisions.(572) + +*322.* _Name, Uncertainty._—A bequest to Georgetown University, in the +District of Columbia, which was incorporated under the name of “The +President and Directors of Georgetown College,” is not void for +uncertainty, as the only institution of learning in the District of +Columbia is Georgetown College.(573) + +*323.* _Future Uses, Uncertainty._—A devise to a foundling or eleemosynary +institution, whenever the Christians should create one which the trustees +approved, is valid.(574) And a devise to the “First Christian church +erected or to be erected in the village of Telfairville, in Burke county, +or to such persons as may become trustees of the same,” is good as a +charitable bequest.(575) A bequest to a priest to hold in trust and pay +over to the Sisters for the Poor, is valid.(576) A bequest for the care of +a tombstone is valid in some States and not in others without a statutory +provision.(577) A bequest to the bishop “to be by him used for Roman +Catholic charitable institutions in his diocese,” sufficiently describes +the beneficiaries and is good.(578) Also, a bequest to Bishop England “in +trust for the Ladies of the Ursuline Order residing in Charleston in the +State of South Carolina,” was held for “The Ladies of the Ursuline +Community of the city of Charleston.”(579) A bequest for Masses “to a +Roman Catholic priest that shall succeed me in this place,” was held void +for uncertainty.(580) A bequest in trust to a bishop by name to sell and +give the proceeds to a society named, is not a devise to the society, but +to the bishop in trust.(581) + +*324.* _Education, Priesthood._—A devise or bequest to a clergyman of +property to be used for the education of poor Catholic boys for the +priesthood, was sustained in court as sufficiently definite for +performance.(582) + +*325.* _Charitable Trust, Cy-Pres._—Equity will not allow a charitable +trust to fail for want of a trustee, but will appoint one.(583) The +doctrine of _cy-pres_ as applied to charitable gifts and trusts, is not in +force in Alabama, Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Maryland, Iowa, New +York, North Carolina, nor Wisconsin; but seems to prevail in California, +Illinois, Massachusetts, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island. + +*326.* _Error, Ambiguity._—Great latitude is allowed in charitable +bequests, devises, and gifts, in proving _aliunde_ the beneficiary +intended where there is error in the name or a latent ambiguity.(584) The +religion of the testator will be considered in proving intention. + +*327.* _Dissolution, Resulting Trust._—On dissolution of a religious +society, the money collected or derived from the sale of property goes +back as a resulting trust to the contributors.(585) + +*328.* _Charity, Institutions._—To determine what is a charitable trust, +devise, or gift, it is necessary to particularly bear in mind the most +comprehensive definition of charity. Legacies for schools, churches, +libraries, cemeteries, the poor, hospitals, and numerous other +eleemosynary institutions, have been sustained under charitable bequests +when they otherwise would have failed.(586) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXIV. TAXATION + + +*329.* _Purposes, Exempt._—Only church property that is actually used for +church or charitable purposes, is exempt from taxation. Property held for +its increase or profit is not exempt.(587) Land bought for a church on +which no work on the church is yet begun, is not exempt from +taxation.(588) + +*330.* _Lot Isolated, Not Exempt._—A lot isolated from the other property +of the church of a congregation, is not exempt because the congregation +intends to build a church thereon in the future, and actually did build a +church thereon two years later.(589) + +*331.* _Bishop’s Residence, Hospital._—Real property the title to which is +in the archbishop in fee in accordance with the discipline of the Catholic +Church, is not owned by a religious association so as to exempt it from +taxation. The records do not show a trust for the diocese nor any other +beneficiary. A court will not take judicial notice of the laws of the +Catholic Church.(590) But property used as a hospital to care for the sick +and wounded of all races and religions indiscriminately, with or without +pay according to the ability of the patient, is a benevolent institution +engaged in a work of charity, and comes under the law of tax +exemption.(591) + +*332.* _Parsonage, Rented._—A parsonage owned by a congregation and used +only as a residence for the clergyman is not exempt because of some part +of it being also used for alleged religious services, to-wit: morning +prayers of the children before school, a sewing society, and a meeting +place for Sunday-school teachers.(592) However, a house and lot rented and +kept by the minister was exempt from taxation.(593) + +*333.* _Masonic Order, Charity, Elks._—A charity which is confined +exclusively to the members of the Masonic Order and their families or to +the widows and children of deceased members or those who are directly or +indirectly connected with the society, is not purely a public charity +within the provisions of the constitution relating to the exemption of +institutions of purely public charity from taxation.(594) And property +held by the Elks for entertainment and to promote social intercourse was +held not exempt.(595) + +*334.* _Supporting Church, Mississippi._—In the early ages of the States +several of them had laws for taxing all the property in parishes laid out +by the State for the support of Protestant churches. Gradually these laws +were eliminated and at the present time there is probably no State +excepting Mississippi that uses money for the support of a church. Maine +changed her laws in 1821, and other States followed from time to +time.(596) While those taxes were collected, no land within the parish was +exempt in some States and in others the property of a non-resident was +exempt.(597) In New Hampshire and Pennsylvania, a person could not be +compelled to pay the taxes to a denomination of which he was not a +member.(598) + +*335.* _Appropriations, Contracts, Rent._—Under the constitution of the +United States, Congress can not make appropriations nor give aid to any +denomination. Also, similar provisions are in many of the constitutions of +the States. However, many cases arise out of contracts, which border upon +these various rules, and in some States the constitutional provision of +the State is such that the State Legislature may legislate concerning +religions and give certain aid and support thereto. Paying rent to a +congregation for a school-room is not an appropriation or aid to a church +contrary to the constitution.(599) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXV. ELEEMOSYNARY INSTITUTIONS + + +*336.* _Poor, Institutions, Negligence._—As hospitals, homes for the poor, +and other eleemosynary institutions are supported by money given to +charity, it would be a diversion of the trust funds if such institutions +could be compelled to pay damages for negligence causing personal injury +or death. The general rule is that the person causing the injury may be +liable, but not the institution.(600) However, a charitable institution +has been held liable for negligence of its manager to notify a nurse of +the contagious nature of a case assigned to her.(601) + +*337.* _Surgeon, Gratuitous Services._—A charitable medical institution is +not liable for the negligence of its surgeon in operating upon a patient +gratuitously where such institution exercises due care in employing a +surgeon deemed competent. The fact that besides such gratuitous services, +medicine is taught therein for tuition fees and patients who are able to +pay are charged a small fee for room, board, nursing, etc., but no fee +from the patient to the doctor, does not change it from a charitable +institution.(602) However, a hospital that is an adjunct to a medical +school is liable.(603) + +*338.* _Charitable Institution._—An institution that limits its +benefactions to the members of a particular denomination is, in the +absence of a statute to the contrary, a charitable institution.(604) This +rule has exceptions.(605) + +*339.* _Charter, Real Estate._—The trustees of a religious, literary, or +other benevolent society, can not, irrespective of the powers granted by +its charter, purchase and hold real estate under trusts of their own +creation which will protect their property from creditors.(606) + +*340.* _Mortmain, Title, Trust._—The statute of mortmain was never in +force in Pennsylvania, so a religious corporation can hold the legal title +to land in trust for the heir-at-law of a testator who has devised it to +the corporation in trust for uses that were void under the English +law.(607) The only States that have statutes of mortmain are Mississippi +and North Carolina. Yet in those States the statutes are somewhat +different from the law of England. + +*341.* _Public Institutions, Support._—Benevolent and charitable +institutions under a church are not public institutions, and moneys can +not be appropriated for their support.(608) + +*342.* _Nuns, Vows, Property._—When joining a society of nuns, one of the +vows taken was that all property should be held in common and whatever +property was received after taking the vows should belong to the society. +A person who left the order was not concluded from making claim for her +property.(609) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXVI. SCHOOLS + + +*343.* _Parent, Education, State, Parochial Schools._—The right of the +parent to use judgment as to the proper necessaries of his child, +including board, lodging, and education, is generally conceded. However, +there must be no abuse of these parental rights, as the child also has +rights that even a parent can not infringe. Therefore, the State may +require a reasonable opportunity for the education of every child; and if +the parent can not give it on account of his poverty, it is in the power +of the State to take his child in charge and furnish him an education. The +right of the State to make laws requiring a parent to send his child to +school between certain ages, as from four to twenty-one years, is well +settled. The question of the parent’s being obliged to send his child to +the public schools or being forbidden to send his child to a private or +parochial school, is not settled in some States; but it is being settled +in favor of the parent. The Kentucky constitution contains this provision: +“... nor shall any man be compelled to send his child to any school to +which he may be conscientiously opposed.”(610) The right of the State to +supervise or inspect private and parochial schools under the police power +of the State can not be questioned.(611) + +*344.* _Orphan Asylums, School Moneys._—In 1850 the New York Legislature +enacted a law as follows: “The schools of the several incorporated orphan +asylums within the State other than those in the city of New York, shall +participate in the distribution of the school moneys in the same manner +and to the same extent in proportion to the number of children educated +therein, as the common schools in their respective cities and districts.” +The court ruled that moneys devoted by the constitution to the State for +the support of common schools could not be distributed under the act, for +the reason that such asylums are not public schools; but moneys from other +sources might be paid for the education of such orphan children in +proportion to their number to those educated in the common schools of +their respective cities and districts.(612) The schools kept by the Roman +Catholic Orphan Asylum Society of the city of Brooklyn, are not common +schools within the meaning of the constitution, and a provision of law +that such schools should share in the distribution of school moneys raised +by the State was void.(613) + +*345.* _Contract, Direct Payment, Lease._—No school of any denomination or +sect is entitled to public moneys for its support, either by contract for +the education of students therein or by direct payment from the +government.(614) A school conducted by the Catholic Church in which +religious instruction is given to Catholic children is a sectarian +institution within the constitutional provision against using public funds +for sectarian purposes; but public school money expended for such a school +conducted by this school district could not be recovered by suit against +the school officers.(615) Also, a school maintained as a charity under +direction of trustees elected by the town where they must be of a certain +religion, is not entitled to public moneys.(616) But the lease of a part +of a parochial school building or the basement of a church for public +school purposed does not violate the law.(617) In the States of Maine, +Iowa, Massachusetts, Illinois, Ohio, Kansas, and Texas, the reading of the +King James Bible and the singing of hymns and saying prayers have been +held not sectarian.(618) But in Wisconsin, the court ruled the other +way.(619) + +*346.* _Teacher, Lord’s Prayer, Exercise._—“A public school teacher, who, +for the purpose of quieting the pupils and preparing them for their +regular studies, repeats the Lord’s Prayer and the Twenty-second Psalm as +a morning exercise, without comment or remark, in which none of the pupils +are required to participate, is not conducting a form of religious worship +or giving sectarian or religious instruction.”(620) Substantially the same +rule applies in Pennsylvania.(621) However, similar religious exercises +conducted by Catholic teachers have generally been held sectarian and not +permissible in public schools.(622) + +*347.* _Ohio, Directors, Bible._—The constitution of the State of Ohio +does not enjoin nor require religious instruction or the reading of +religious books in the public schools. The board of directors of a +district has charge of the instruction and books to be used therein, and +their official discretion will not be interfered with. Therefore, they +were authorized to have the Bible read at the opening of the school.(623) + +*348.* _Public School, Bible, Prayer._—The committee having control of a +public school may make a rule requiring the school to be opened by reading +from the Bible and prayer every morning, and that each child shall bow the +head during such prayers; that any scholar shall be excused from bowing +the head whose parents request it; and when any scholar refuses to obey +such rule and his parents refuse to request that he shall be excused, the +committee may exclude such scholar from the school.(624) + +*349.* _Text-Books, State._—The State has the power to grant authority to +the State Board of Education to select and prescribe text-books to be used +in the public schools of the State.(625) + +*350.* _Bible, Conscience, Constitution._—The parent of a child expelled +from the public school can not maintain an action against the school +committee by whose orders it was done. In the same case it was held that a +rule requiring every scholar to read a particular version of the Bible, +though it may be against the conscience of some to do so, does not violate +the letter or spirit of the constitution.(626) + +*351.* _Schoolhouse, Sunday-School Purposes._—The inhabitants of a school +district have no right to use the schoolhouse for religious meeting on +Sunday against the objection of any taxpayer in the district, +notwithstanding that the officers of the district granted such right. A +taxpayer may obtain an injunction against such use, although the injury to +him be very slight, as he has no other remedy.(627) A district school +board can not authorize the use of the schoolhouse for any other than +school purposes.(628) + +*352.* _Child, Immoral Character._—The school committee in order to +maintain purity and discipline, may exclude therefrom a child whom they +deem to be of licentious or immoral character, although such character is +not manifested in acts of licentiousness or immorality within the +school.(629) + +*353.* _Parents, Studies, Teacher._—The requirement of a teacher that a +scholar in grammar shall write English composition is a reasonable one, +and refusal to comply therewith in the absence of a request from his +parents that he be excused therefrom, will justify the expulsion of a +scholar from school.(630) But when a parent selects certain studies that +the law provides to be taught for his child to study, the teacher has no +right to insist that the child shall take some other study and inflict +punishment to enforce obedience.(631) + +*354.* _Chastisement, Cruel._—The chastisement of a scholar by the +schoolmaster must not be excessive or cruel, but it should be reasonably +proportioned to the offense and within the bounds of moderation.(632) + +*355.* _Schoolmaster, Authority._—Although a schoolmaster has in general +no right to punish a pupil for misconduct after the dismissal of the +school for the day and the return of the pupil to his home, yet he may on +the pupil’s return to school punish him for any misbehavior, though +committed out of school, which has a direct and immediate tendency to +injure the school and to subvert the master’s authority. The fact that the +master acted in good faith will not excuse him from damages for the +punishment of a scholar where the punishment is clearly excessive and +unnecessary. However, where there is a reasonable doubt the master should +have the benefit of it.(633) + +*356.* _Force, Assistance._—And where a scholar in school hours places +himself in the desk of the instructor and refuses to leave it on the +request of the master, the master may immediately use such force and call +to his assistance such aid from another person as may be necessary to +remove the scholar. The same rule would apply to any one who is not a +scholar and intrudes upon the school.(634) + +*357.* _White, Unmarried._—Before the adoption of the fourteenth amendment +it was necessary in most States that in addition to the child being under +twenty-one years of age, he must be of white blood and unmarried.(635) In +Ohio, negroes, Indians, and children of less than half white blood, were +not entitled to the benefit of the school fund; and even where this would +entirely exclude from school children not sufficient to form a district, +still it was held that such children could not attend the white +school.(636) + +*358.* _Facilities, the Constitution._—So long as abundant facilities are +given for the education of all the children of a district, it is not a +violation of the constitution of the United States to keep negro and white +people separated. The same rule applies to courts.(637) + +*359.* _Residents, Public Schools._—Children in a German Protestant orphan +asylum are not “children, wards, or apprentices of actual residents” in +the district of the asylum, and therefore are not entitled to enter the +public schools of the district.(638) + +*360.* _Board, Majority._—Two of the three members of a school board have +no authority to act by themselves, and their individual agreement to +dismiss a teacher is void. A school board can only act at a duly called +meeting of the board, and then the majority vote duly taken decides.(639) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXVII. PARENT AND CHILD + + +*361.* _Custody, Maternal Relatives, Father._—A parent is entitled to the +care and custody of his child if he is competent to transact his own +business and not otherwise unsuitable. And the mere fact that the maternal +relatives who have had the care of the child from its birth have become +attached to it and desire to continue to care for it and are able to +secure it better advantages than its parent, does not render the parent +unsuitable to have its care and custody within the meaning of the statute. +Also, the want of a sympathetic nature or cold reserve in a parent or the +fact that he is away on business a great deal of the time, is not +sufficient to render him unsuitable. But the right of the father may be +lost or forfeited by his ill-conduct, gross ill-treatment, cruelty, or +abandonment, or when his conduct and life are such as are injurious to the +morals and interest of his child. When the father dies or forfeits his +right for reasons already given, the mother, if alive, succeeds to all +those rights, subject, however, to the same conditions as the father. And +in the case of a child of tender years, the good of the child has to be +regarded as the predominant consideration.(640) + +*362.* _Mother, Illegitimate, Father._—The mother has a right to the care +and custody of her illegitimate child to the same extent that a parent has +to his legitimate child.(641) The putative father on the mother’s death +succeeds to the mother’s rights as against the maternal relatives and may +secure the custody of the child by _habeas corpus_. This rule is different +from the one that prevailed in the Roman law.(642) However, when the +father has given bond for the care, support, and education of an +illegitimate child, his right to the custody of the child may be +superior.(643) + +*363.* _Legitimatized._—And when under a statute a child is legitimatized +by acknowledgment or subsequent marriage, the father has the better right +to its custody.(644) Usually there are many provisions in the statutes of +the various States which substantially provide for the rights, relative +and otherwise, of the parents and child in such cases. + +*364.* _Punishment, Instrument, Murder._—A parent or a person _in foro +domestico_ or _in loco parentis_ may give reasonable corrective punishment +with a fit instrument to a child. But if a parent or master whips a child +so that it dies, he is guilty of manslaughter. And if he uses lethal +instruments of punishment, he is guilty of murder.(645) Where a mother in +anger threw a poker at one child and hit and killed another child, she was +guilty of manslaughter.(646) The punishment always becomes unlawful when +it is excessive, and drunkenness is no excuse.(647) + +*365.* _Guardian, Religion, Courts._—In England where a child was taken +from the testamentary guardian, who after the death of the testator +changed her religion from a Protestant to a Catholic, it was held thereby +to be incompetent to continue as guardian.(648) And in New York it was +held that where the father and mother were Catholics, the guardian must +endeavor to bring the children up in that faith, as a guardian will not be +permitted to proselyte wards.(649) But where a father who was a Catholic +allowed his child to be brought up by a maternal aunt who was a +Protestant, until the child was fourteen years of age, the father was not +then entitled to the child’s custody for the purpose of having it +instructed in his own faith.(650) Courts will not interfere with the +religion of a child, but will allow it to be brought up in the religion of +its parents; however, the best interests of the child will be considered +by the court without conceding everything else to its religion.(651) + +*366.* _Convent, Consent._—A daughter under age who entered a convent to +become a nun without the consent of her mother, may, on a writ of _habeas +corpus_ on the petition of her mother, be required to leave the convent +and return to her home.(652) + +*367.* _Adoption, Rights, Duties._—Persons of suitable age and +circumstances to enter the marital relations, may adopt a child. When a +married couple do not unite in adopting a child, the consent of the +non-adopting spouse must be obtained. Also, if the child’s parents are +living, their consent is necessary unless they have lost their paternal +rights by abandonment or divorce. The decree of adoption may be set aside +for good cause. The adopted parent has all the rights over and duties +toward the person of the adopted child that a natural parent has, +including necessaries and religious training. Usually the child inherits +from the adopted parents, but the adopted parents do not inherit from the +child. The statutes on adoption are not the same in the several States, +but they cover the subject and must be strictly followed.(653) + +*368.* _Infancy, Manumission, Marriage._—At common law a person is an +infant until he is twenty-one years of age. Statutes have modified that +rule so that girls in some States, and both girls and boys in others, may +contract marriage at an earlier age without the parental consent. +Generally, an infant can not contract marriage without the consent of the +living parent or guardian unless the child has been manumitted. Where the +boy was under the age of consent, but he falsely told the priest that he +was of full age, his father had the marriage annulled.(654) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXVIII. HUSBAND AND WIFE + + +*369.* _Custody, Father._—A husband is entitled to the custody of his wife +against her father, and where a son-in-law killed his father-in-law in +resisting the latter from taking his daughter out of his (the +son-in-law’s) house, the court held that it could not be more than +manslaughter; and if it were necessary to kill to protect and maintain his +wife, the defendant was not guilty.(655) But for good cause and without +malice a parent may advise his child to leave spouse.(656) + +*370.* _Corrective Authority, Services, Domicile._—In America a husband +gains no right to corrective authority over his wife. He can neither whip +her nor use abusive language to her. The same rule applies to the wife, as +they stand equal before the law.(657) However, a husband is entitled to +all the services of his wife and a promise to pay her extra for housework +can not be enforced.(658) Also, the husband has the right to determine +their place of domicile, and if the wife unreasonably refuses to accompany +her husband, it is desertion, for which he may obtain a divorce.(659) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXIX. INDIANS + + +*371.* _Indians, Citizens, Wards._—There are a great number of statutory +provisions concerning Indians, both in the United States statutes and in +the statutes of the several States, most of which are not of great +importance at the present time, as the Indians are confined to a few +States. When they become citizens of the State in which they reside, their +status is the same as other citizens; but so long as they remain in their +tribal relations they are taken care of as wards of the Union. + +*372.* _Schools, Cemeteries, Churches._—In Oklahoma there are schools +provided for them. When a tribe cedes 160 acres to the United States, it +will give it a school for ten years, and as much longer as it deems +necessary. Also, the Indians may have their own cemeteries, schools, and +churches, where the Indians belong to the tribes, and they are allowed +lands therefor.(660) In other States, under the general law, the money of +Indian minors may be held in the treasury by the Secretary of the Interior +and paid to parents and guardians in such sums and at such times as the +Secretary in his discretion may determine.(661) There is no doubt that out +of those moneys, parents might pay for their children at private +schools.(662) + +*373.* _Inspectors, Duties._—Under the United States laws, inspectors are +appointed to visit Indian agencies and investigate all matters concerning +them and to examine all contracts and accounts with the Indians and make +report thereon to the Secretary of the Interior. The contracts for support +of religion, schools, and charitable institutions, come under their +duties.(663) + +*374.* _President, Trades._—The President may cause Indians to be +instructed in trades and agriculture and have them taught the elementary +branches.(664) + +*375.* _Commissioner, School, Rations, Bible, Sectarian._—Another officer +of great importance is the Commissioner of Indian Affairs, who has most to +do with the education and schools of the Indians.(665) He may require +parents and guardians to send children to school and withhold rations from +them for failure so to do. Also, there is a fund under the control of the +United States as trustee, with which he may make contracts for the +education of Indian children at private schools.(666) However, the +jurisdiction of the commissioner over Indian children does not extend to +those off the reservation.(667) Among other provisions of the United +States statutes is the following: “The Christian Bible may be taught in +the native language of the Indians if in the judgment of the persons in +charge of the school it may be deemed conducive to the moral welfare and +instruction of the pupils in such schools.”(668) The Bible continues its +position among the Indians, but appropriations for the Church are cut off +by the following provision: “It is hereby declared to be the settled +policy of the government to hereafter make no appropriations whatever for +education in any sectarian school.”(669) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXX. JUVENILE COURTS + + +*376.* _Reformatories, Object, Liberty._—During the past few years +juvenile courts have been created for the purpose of committing children +to reformatories. The proceedings are not criminal actions, but of an +equitable nature.(670) However, as the object is to deprive the child of +its liberty, the statute must be strictly construed and followed.(671) An +infant can not waive a right.(672) If a child has been wrongfully +committed or is wrongfully detained, the proper remedy for his discharge +is a writ of _habeas corpus_.(673) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXXI. LIBEL AND SLANDER + + +*377.* _Confidential, Tribunal, Malice._—The rule is that all confidential +statements made to an officer or a tribunal of the church concerning a +member in the course of church discipline and for the good of the church, +if not made with malice, are privileged, and no action for libel or +slander can be maintained therefor.(674) + +*378.* _Member, Officer, Councils._—But slanderous or libelous statements +made concerning a person not a member of the church or made concerning a +member of the church to another member who is not either an officer or in +the councils of the church, are actionable and the person making or +publishing such statements is liable for damages. Also, a person who +repeats a libel or slander may be liable as though he were the +originator.(675) + +*379.* _Official Communication, Privileged._—An official communication +between authorities of the church or an authority and a member of the +church concerning a church matter or church members and not made in +malice, is privileged.(676) + +*380.* _Priest, Pastoral Duties._—Where a priest published from the altar +that “Peter Servatius is excommunicated, because he laid hands on the +priest to put him out of the church, and he has no more benefit of the +prayers of the church. I will not pray for him, and consider him a lost +sheep and withdraw all my pastoral blessings from him. If he die, the +burial rights of the church will be denied him,” such remarks were held +defamatory, unless they were spoken in the proper discharge of the +priest’s clerical and pastoral duties and without malice; and the case +should have been submitted on the evidence to a jury.(677) + +*381.* _Church Record, Excommunication._—An entry of a church record that +“A report raised and circulated by A. B. against Brother C., stating that +he made him pay a note twice, and proved by A. B. as false,” is +libelous.(678) But an entry of excommunication of a member made in the +record and shown to other members, is not libelous, the latter being +properly a part of the record and the former extraneous.(679) + +*382.* _Will, Libel, Action._—The will of a priest contained a statement +that a relative had received $300 from him for clothing, maintenance, +education, etc., and promised to repay it, but paid no part of it. Then +testator bequeathed said $300 to two legatees to collect for their own +use. The relative filed a petition asking the estate of the priest to be +held liable for a libel in the sum of $50,000 and the court held that as +the right of action did not accrue until after the death of the testator, +there was a right of action against the estate. As the case never got +beyond the probate court, its authority is doubtful.(680) + +*383.* _Language, Insane, Good Faith._—Unless the language is used by the +bishop in the line of his duty, a statement that a priest is irresponsible +and insane, that he was removed from his position of priest for good +reason, and that he has been guilty of ecclesiastical disobedience, is +slanderous _per se_. To make a communication between a bishop and priest +privileged it must have been spoken in good faith and in belief that the +speaking of it came within the discharge of the bishop’s duty.(681) + +*384.* _Rector, Bigamy, Tobacco, Liquor._—In a case where the rector of an +Episcopal church called upon a man charged with bigamy and after a private +conversation the minister wrote a letter to the district attorney on +behalf of the prisoner, it was held not privileged because it was not made +in confidence of the relation and was not kept as a secret.(682) A letter +from a church member of one congregation to the elders of another +congregation advising them of the unfitness of a clergyman appointed to +the latter parish, and stating that he used tobacco and liquor, that he +was an untruthful man, and that his family was no credit to the community, +was quasi-privileged; and in the absence of proof that the charges were +false and malicious was not actionable.(683) + +*385.* _Newspapers, Criticisms, Priest._—A newspaper has a right to +publish criticisms of the conduct of a priest in certain services held in +his church if no false statement of facts is given, since such conduct is +a proper subject of discussion; and if such article contains a statement +that if certain published accounts of the conduct of the priest are true +he acted in an improper manner, etc., it is not libelous because such +facts are not true, as it is not an affirmation of the truth thereof. +Where the alleged libel was published in a foreign language and the +correctness of the translation was disputed, it was an error for the judge +to instruct the jury that if the translation introduced in evidence was +correct, the defendant was liable, since plaintiff’s right to recover +should not be made to depend on the absolute accuracy of the +translation.(684) + +*386.* _Clergyman, Discipline, Tribunals, Testimony, Argument._—What a +clergyman says in the administration of the discipline of the church or +what is said in tribunals to enforce discipline of the church, including +testimony and legitimate argument within the scope of the case, if said in +good faith and without malice, is not actionable in the civil courts.(685) + +*387.* _Physical Discipline, Imprisonment, Courts._—A clergyman who claims +to have been slandered by a parishioner can not administer physical +discipline nor put the offender under restraint without leaving himself +liable for damages for assault and battery or false imprisonment. If the +clergyman desires to treat the charge as a church matter, he must go into +the church tribunal; otherwise, his proper course is to bring an action +for slander in the State court.(686) + +*388.* _Sermon, False Statement, Crime._—A clergyman may, by words used in +a sermon, slander a member of his congregation. However, if he makes no +false statement and does not falsely or maliciously charge a crime, what +he says in the way of discipline is privileged.(687) The meaning of the +words “she is a dirty, vile woman,” can not be extended by innuendo.(688) + +*389.* _Charges, Robbed, Hypocrite._—Charges that a person has robbed a +church or has stolen from a church, are actionable.(689) Also, charging a +person with being a hypocrite and using the cloak of religion for unworthy +purposes, is slanderous.(690) + +*390.* _Investigation, Probable Cause._—When a member of a church consents +to an investigation on complaint before a person who is not a member, if +the complaint was made on probable cause and not under the pretence of +exposing the defendant to scorn or obloquy, he could not subsequently +bring an action for libel.(691) + +*391.* _Sacraments._—To publish of a person that he has been deprived of +the sacraments of the church to which he belongs, is libelous.(692) + +*392.* _Obituary, Tolling Bell._—To falsely and maliciously publish an +obituary notice of a person living, is good ground for an action for +libel.(693) However, a complaint that a church tolled its bell to announce +the death of a member, and did report him dead when he was actually +living, and that it was all done for the purpose of annoying, harassing, +and vexing the person and his family, was held not sufficient to support +an action for libel. The latter case is doubtful law.(694) + +*393.* _Newspaper, Profane Swearer._—A newspaper in a notice of the death +of a church member has the right to state that he was a profane swearer, +if such was the case.(695) + +*394.* _Business or Property, Special Damages._—A company incorporated for +the purpose of transacting business which would include hospitals, +schools, and industrial institutions, may maintain an action for libel the +same as an individual for any words affecting its business or property, if +special damages are alleged and proved.(696) + +*395.* _Justification, Repeating._—It is no justification that libelous +matter had been previously published by a third person, that the name of +such person was disclosed at the time of repeating the libel, and that the +person who was repeating it believed all the statements in the libel to be +true.(697) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXXII. CRIMES + + +*396.* _Sins, Crimes, Discipline._—Crimes are offenses against the civil +law. The fact that the church organization may try and punish a member for +sinning, or acquit him, has nothing whatever to do with the administration +of the criminal law of the State. Therefore, a member may be arrested and +tried for any offense before or after the ecclesiastical tribunal has +taken action in the matter. But there are certain crimes of a religious +nature of which the civil law assumes jurisdiction and punishes, such as +blasphemy,(698) disturbing religious meetings,(699) etc. Most of those +laws are statutory and depend wholly upon the statute of the State where +the crime is committed. + +*397.* _Profane Language, Smoking, Disturbance._—Rude behavior or profane +language if audible,(700) smoking in the church or during services,(701) +cracking and eating nuts in church,(702) and fighting near the church so +as to disturb the services, are violations of the law.(703) A father’s +taking his child out of the church with violence is a disturbance of the +meeting.(704) The disturbance of any member of the congregation assembled +for religious worship is a violation of law.(705) A sentence of $100 fine +or one year’s imprisonment in the penitentiary, is not excessive or cruel +or unusual punishment on conviction for disturbing a meeting.(706) + +*398.* _Sunday-School, Church._—An ordinary Sunday-school where the Bible +and religious precepts are taught, is a church within the law.(707) + +*399.* _Private School._—A person may be punished under the statute for +wilfully disturbing a private school kept in a district schoolhouse for +instruction in the art of writing.(708) + +*400.* _Disturbing a Religious Meeting._—Under a statute against +disturbing a religious meeting, it has been held that it should define +what disturbance is punishable.(709) Also, mere want of attention or +observance of ceremonies, as standing or kneeling at times, is not a +violation of the law.(710) Neither is singing out of time, unless done +purposely,(711) nor performing a proper duty, such as objecting to a +silenced clergyman’s conducting the services.(712) + +*401.* _Common Law, Offense, Statutory Law._—If there is no statutory +provision, in those States where the common law prevailed before the +admission of the State to the Union the offense is punishable under the +common law.(713) And even in States where there is a statutory law on the +subject, a person may be convicted at common law.(714) + +*402.* _Services, Violation, Time._—The nature of the services and the +discipline of the denomination may determine whether there is a violation +of the law. Usually the disturbance may occur at any place the +congregation is assembled, and at any time when any part of the +congregation is assembled for religious services or business.(715) + +*403.* _Force, Priest, Preserve Order._—A congregation may use sufficient +force to remove a disturber.(716) A Catholic priest who is the conductor +of religious services and master of ceremonies within his church has the +right to preserve order and to remove by force, if necessary, any person +who disturbs his services.(717) + +*404.* _Interrupt, Liquors, Traffic._—There are statutes in most of the +States making it a penal offense to interrupt or molest any assembly or +meeting of the people for religious worship, or to sell intoxicating +liquors or other articles of traffic within a certain distance of any +camp-meeting or other religious assembly, except at a place of business +regularly established prior to such meeting or assembly and not with +intent of evading the provisions of the law.(718) + +*405.* _Theory, Blasphemy, Crime._—On the theory that the United States is +a Christian nation, blasphemy is held to be a crime.(719) Infidels +naturally claim that it interferes with their rights. However, there is no +more interference with the private rights of the infidel than there is +with the private right of the Mormon who is forbidden to violate the laws +of the country by having a plurality of wives; and it has been held that +any words importing imprecation for divine vengeance may constitute +profane cursing or blasphemy.(720) + +*406.* _Religion, God, Ridicule, Virgin._—Words vilifying the Christian +religion,(721) denying God or the final judgment,(722) and profane +ridicule of the Holy Scriptures or of Christ,(723) are usually punishable. +Also, the use of vile words applied to the Virgin Mary is blasphemy.(724) + +*407.* _Profanity, Proof, Excuse._—The profanity must be in the hearing of +some person.(725) Every time a person profanely swears by taking the name +of God in vain is a separate offense.(726) The prisoner’s confession is +sufficient proof; otherwise the prosecution must show that the offense was +committed and some one heard the words. + +Drunkenness is no excuse.(727) Punishment by fine or imprisonment is not +in violation of the constitution of the State or of the United +States.(728) + +*408.* _Sunday, Business, Fishing._—The offenses against the Sunday law +are so numerous that it would be almost impossible to review them within +the limits of this work. Of course, the carrying on of a man’s ordinary +business is a violation of the Sabbath laws. But in some States selling +cigars,(729) a butcher selling meat,(730) and even selling soda +water,(731) and ice cream,(732) as well as fishing, traveling, driving, +using a slot machine,(733) and almost every other imaginable act excepting +going to church, has at some time and in some State been declared a +violation of the law, and a penalty imposed therefor. + +In California,(734) Tennessee,(735) and Washington,(736) men may be shaved +on Sunday. In some other States it has been held that running a barber +shop on Sunday is a violation of the law.(737) + +*409.* _Charity, Necessity, Benefit, Pleasure._—However, doing works of +charity and works of necessity usually are exempt. What is a work of +necessity is a question of law. Charity includes whatever proceeds from +the sense of moral duty or a feeling of kindness and humanity, and is +intended wholly for the purpose of the relief or comfort of another, and +not for one’s benefit or pleasure.(738) + +*410.* _Contracts, Marriage, Notice._—The common law made no distinction +between Sunday and any other day as to making contracts, but it prohibited +holding court. In this country the statutory law invariably prohibits any +but works of necessity or charity to be done on Sunday. But marriage +settlements,(739) publication of statutory notices on Sunday,(740) and +promises to marry, have been held legal.(741) + +*411.* _Funeral, Physician, Subscriptions._—To attend a funeral, to employ +an undertaker, or a physician, on Sunday, has been tested in the courts, +and finally decided to be works of necessity or charity and not a +violation of the Sunday law. Also, subscriptions made for church purposes +and in works of charity on Sunday have been held legal and binding.(742) + +*412.* _Jews, Seventh-Day Observers._—In several of the States it has been +held that Jews and Seventh-Day observers of the Sabbath must obey the +Sunday law.(743) However, in many States there is a statute expressly +exempting people who keep the seventh day of the week; but still they +sometimes have a provision, unless “he shall wilfully disturb thereby some +other person or some religious assembly on said day.” + +*413.* _Societies, Secular Work._—Business meetings of benevolent and +church societies for benevolent or church work may be held on Sunday. Even +the constitution of such societies may be amended on Sunday. However, +secular work that does not come strictly under the functions of such +societies would be unlawful.(744) + +*414.* _Sunday, Begins, Ends._—Usually people believe they know what the +word Sunday means, when it begins, and when it ends. Christianity usually +recognizes the time from midnight to midnight as Sunday, and that is the +usual time recognized by law.(745) But the solar day only,(746) or from +midnight to sunset,(747) give us a variety which may not be complete. +Also, we have the further anomaly of a note made at 2 o’clock on Saturday +night, being held valid.(748) + +*415.* _Religious Liberty, Law._—The constitutional guarantee of religious +liberty is not violated by enforcing the Sunday law.(749) + +*416.* _Necessaries, Doctor._—As a parent or husband is obliged to furnish +necessaries for his children and wife, when medical treatment becomes +necessary, he is liable for manslaughter for failure to do his duty, even +in case of religious disbelief in the efficacy of medicine. Courts are not +inclined to make any distinction as to religious belief, and the +prevailing rule in this country is that the parent is liable if he +negligently allows his child to die when it might have been saved by the +services of a doctor.(750) + +*417.* _Christian Healer, Consent._—A Christian healer can not be held +liable except under a State law. One who consents to treatment has no +action for damages unless there is a failure to exercise the care and +skill of a Christian Scientist. This rule might not apply to one +incompetent to consent to a contract.(751) + +*418.* _Politics._—A minister who had been expelled by his congregation +for voting the Democratic ticket, had some of the members of the church +arrested under the election laws for intimidating a voter. The court held +that as he “suffered no pecuniary loss, personal injury, or physical +restraint,” no crime was committed.(752) + +*419.* _Mail, Obscene Language._—Under the United States postal laws +against sending “obscene, lewd or lascivious” books or papers through the +mail, a person can not be convicted without proof that the matter is +obscene, lewd, and lascivious, as the word “or” should be construed to +mean “and.” Also, the court held that a newspaper article on the doctrine +of the Immaculate Conception written in coarse and obscene language that +offended the religious sentiments of the people, but had no tendency to +induce sexual immorality, did not render the newspaper unmailable nor the +publisher guilty under the United States statutes. The court says: “Those +parts of the article most relied upon to sustain the charge, though +ostensibly a discussion of a religious subject, are couched in language +not quite suitable for insertion in a judicial opinion, however well +adjusted to such applause as might be expected from taste of a certain +degree of degradation.”(753) + +*420.* _“__Fair,__”__ Chances, Gambling._—A church “fair” at which chances +are sold, drawings had, or any game of chance permitted, is illegal and +may be punished as gambling.(754) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXXIII. CEMETERIES + + +*421.* _Statutes, Land._—There are sufficient statutory provisions on +cemeteries to make a large book, and the frequent changes made in such +laws render a full statement of the law impossible. The statutes against +locating cemeteries near cities, dwellings, etc., should be carefully +examined before buying land therefor.(755) + +*422.* _United States, Jurisdiction._—The jurisdiction over the United +States cemeteries is in the State where the cemeteries are located unless +such jurisdiction has been ceded to the United States.(756) + +*423.*. _Tombstones, Soldiers_.—The United States will erect tombstones at +the graves of soldiers who served in the Civil War, in all cemeteries +where their graves are unmarked. Wherever the United States has +jurisdiction over cemeteries, it has made it a criminal offense punishable +by fine or imprisonment to deface a tombstone.(757) + +*424.* _Indigent Soldiers, Tombstones._—Most of the States have statutes +providing for the burial of indigent soldiers and for putting tombstones +at their graves. The attention of relatives of deceased soldiers should be +called to it. + +*425.* _State Authority._—The State Legislature has authority to control +cemeteries or delegate that authority to some one else, and afterward to +transfer it to a different person.(758) + +*426.* _Maryland, Two Acres._—Although the declaration of rights of the +State of Maryland restricted the sale of lands for a cemetery for a church +to two acres, the Legislature has power to grant leave to a cemetery +association to take title to more land. And where the trustees bought +twelve acres of land for a burial ground and a subsequent act of the +Legislature authorized the enlargement of the cemetery not to exceed +twenty-five acres, the title to the excess of the valid purchase was +ratified and the title vested in the trustees.(759) + +*427.* _Consent, Application._—Where a statute provides that no cemetery +shall be laid out without first obtaining the consent of the municipal +authorities thereto, a written communication signed by the officers of an +incorporated society is sufficient application; and a motion granting +consent adopted by the city council is sufficient action on its part to +comply with the statute.(760) + +*428.* _Charter, Ground, Members._—An application for a charter to +incorporate a cemetery need not specifically locate the ground.(761) The +charter or the articles of incorporation, or by-laws made under them, +generally determines who shall be members of the corporation. And where +every owner of a lot signing the constitution and by-laws becomes a +member, the trustees can not vote on the unsold lots.(762) + +*429.* _Police Power, Trespass, Burial._—Under our laws the State, by +reason of its police power, has control over the cemeteries within it. +However, that power has generally been very favorably exercised. Laws both +civil and criminal have been enacted to protect cemeteries from invasion +and trespass and to protect tombstones from injury.(763) When authorized +by the Legislature a city may make a by-law prohibiting burial within its +limits, notwithstanding that the cemetery has been constantly used for +over one hundred years.(764) Also, the city has authority to protect and +regulate the use of a cemetery.(765) + +*430.* _Dwelling, Limits._—Most of the States provide that no cemetery +shall be laid out within a certain limit of a dwelling. But after the +cemetery is established a man can not have it moved when he puts up a +dwelling within the limits or where he consented to the cemetery at the +time it was established.(766) + +*431.* _Well, Pollution._—And where a man had built a dwelling near a +cemetery, it was not good ground for him to prevent the enlargement of the +cemetery by showing that it might destroy his well. The court questions +whether there is any legal ground for complaint for the pollution of +subterranean waters when caused by the proper use without negligence of +the adjacent premises.(767) Additional lands may be obtained under the law +of eminent domain by condemnation.(768) + +*432.* _Exempt, Execution, Mortgage._—The statutes in most of the States +exempt the tombstones and lots in a cemetery from sale on execution.(769) +Also, a cemetery lot can not be sold under mortgage after bodies have been +buried therein, as any one may be arrested for desecration of graves.(770) + +*433.* _Public, Regulation._—The right to bury in a public cemetery is a +privilege or license that is subject to municipal regulation, and +revocable whenever the public necessity requires it.(771) + +*434.* _Nuisance, Public Health, Disease._—A cemetery is not a nuisance +_per se_, but if it is proved that the burial of dead bodies in a certain +cemetery does injure the public health and is a fruitful source of +transmission of disease, the State may prohibit such burial at certain +places within cities or adjacent to dwellings. But unless authorized by +the Legislature a council has no right by ordinance to provide that no one +shall be buried within half a mile of any habitation or public +thoroughfare.(772) And where the Legislature authorized a city to remove +the bodies interred and allow streets through the land, it had authority +to do so.(773) + +*435.* _Devise, Easement, Rules._—The general rule of law is that a man +can not devise away a cemetery lot in which members of his family are +buried. He owns only a license or at the most an easement which is subject +to the rules of the cemetery association and the police power of the +State. However, there are some exceptions.(774) + +*436.* _Conditions._—A condition in a deed that the lot can not be sold, +assigned, or transferred without consent of the cemetery corporation, is +as good and binding as in any other conveyance of real estate.(775) + +*437.* _Inherits, Right._—Where a son inherits from his father the right +to burial in a cemetery lot, he has the right to remove and inter therein +the bodies of his grandmother and sister who had been buried +elsewhere.(776) + +*438.* _Certificate._—A certificate was issued for the burial of Dennis +Coppers in the following form: + + + “Office of Calvary Cemetery, + New York, December 1, 1873. + + RECEIVED from Mr. Dennis Coppers, seventy-five dollars, being the + amount of purchase money of a plot of ground 8 feet by 8 feet, in + Calvary Cemetery. + + D. BRENNAN, + Superintendent of Calvary Cemetery. + + 4 Graves, 5, 6, 7, 8, Plot D, Section 7, Range 35.” + + +*439.* _Freemason, Title, Right._—Prior to 1879, the mother, wife, and +other relatives of Coppers, who were Roman Catholics, were buried in the +lot covered by the deed given in the last paragraph. Coppers, who was a +Freemason, died in August, 1879, and his funeral services were held under +the auspices of the Masons from an Episcopal church, as directed in his +will. The rules and doctrines of the Church forbid the burial in +consecrated ground of the body of one who was not a Roman Catholic or who +was a member of the Masonic fraternity. The Church authorities refused to +allow Coppers to be buried in the cemetery, and application was made by +his relatives for a writ of mandamus to compel his interment therein, they +having deposited the necessary money to pay all the expenses. The court +held that the certificate delivered to Coppers was not a conveyance nor a +grant and did not vest title to the land in him, and that the cemetery +could not be compelled to execute and deliver to him an absolute +conveyance of the lot. His only right under the certificate was the use of +the lot for burial purposes subject to and in conformity with the +established rules and by-laws of the corporation in so far as they were +not in violation of any law. It is the tacit understanding, when a person +applies for a burial lot in a cemetery of the Catholic Church, that he is +either a Catholic and as such is eligible to be buried therein, or that he +applies in behalf of those who are in communion with the Church.(777) + +*440.* _Lots, Fee._—If the cemetery association sells 400 lots to one man +and makes a conveyance in fee thereof, it is bound thereby.(778) + +*441.* _Deed, Privilege, Heirs and Assigns._—No formal deed is necessary +to confer exclusive right to the use of a cemetery lot for burial +purposes.(779) And certificates of lots issued by a corporation convey no +title to the land, as they are not in the form necessary to constitute a +conveyance of land. Their only effect is to grant the privilege of +interment so long as the ground continues to be used for the purposes of +burial.(780) A deed of a cemetery lot “to him, his heirs, and assigns +forever,” gives only an easement in the freehold, and does not give title +to the soil, and is subject to changes made necessary by altered +circumstances.(781) + +*442.* _Access, Purposes._—Title to a cemetery lot gives the right of +access to it for the usual purposes, including putting up monuments.(782) + +*443.* _Monuments, Inscriptions, Drunkenness, Non-Baptized, +Strangers._—The plaintiff obtained from the defendant a deed, which, among +other things, contained the following conditions: “that such lot shall not +be transferred without the consent of the trustees; shall be subject to +the regulations made, or to be made, in the care and management of such +cemetery by the trustees, who shall also have the right to prevent the +erection of offensive and improper monuments or inscriptions thereon, and +shall retain the right to enter any lot for the removal of anything +objectionable; that no remains shall be deposited therein for hire; and +that persons dying in drunkenness, duel, or by self-destruction, +non-baptized, non-Catholic, or otherwise opposed to the Catholic Church, +shall not be therein interred.” The plaintiff had buried his father and +one of his children in the lot, and brought his wife’s remains there for +burial. Upon the arrival of the funeral, two small coffins of strangers, +one of which bore the name “John McDonald,” which the grave-digger had +taken up, were at the side of the grave. There was nothing to show how +those bodies came to be buried there. The plaintiff brought suit for +damages against the cemetery association. The court held that the cemetery +association was liable and that the defense that it was a public +charitable organization could not be sustained.(783) + +*444.* _Use, Forfeited._—When a deed is made of land for the use of a +cemetery only, it will be forfeited by using it for a school.(784) + +*445.* _By-Laws, Member, Burial._—Where a by-law of a church association +provides that any member who pays one dollar to have his name entered in +the record shall be entitled to a burial lot, a member who had paid one +dollar to the committee of the church before the adoption of such by-law +but had ceased to be a member of the congregation, has no right to a +burial lot.(785) + +*446.* _Adverse Possession._—If the original title to a cemetery is +defective, the title may become good by adverse possession.(786) + +*447.* _Improvements._—The owner of a lot, unless some rule of the +cemetery association or law of the State is to the contrary, may improve +it as he sees fit so long as he does not injure the property rights of +another.(787) + +*448.* _Trespass, Injunction._—An action for damages _quara clausum +fregit_, can be maintained by a relative against any one who trespasses +upon a grave of a person lawfully interred.(788) Also, a relative may +enjoin by suit in equity, on behalf of himself and others equally +interested, interference with graves in his cemetery lot.(789) + +*449.* _Roads, Alleys._—Most of the laws relating to highways apply to +cemetery roads and alleys, excepting that when a road or alley in a +cemetery is vacated the land reverts to the cemetery instead of becoming +parts of the adjoining lots.(790) In most of the States a road can not be +laid out through or take a part of a cemetery.(791) But a public highway +may be established through a cemetery by user, the same as over other +lands.(792) + +*450.* _Abandoned, Bodies._—When a cemetery has been abandoned, those who +have relatives buried there may incorporate it for preservation.(793) +Also, a corporation may change its cemetery and remove the bodies interred +therein.(794) + +*451.* _Two-Family Lot, Control._—Where a lot is owned jointly by two +families, one burying in the north half and the other in the south half, +the family burying in the north half can not prevent the burial of a +member of the other family in the south half, if entitled to be buried in +that cemetery.(795) + +*452.* _Burying Dogs, Removal._—A person who has a lot in a cemetery has +no right to bury any but human bodies therein, and one who has buried a +pet dog in her lot may be compelled to remove it.(796) + +*453.* _Stranger, Protest, Kin._—One member of a family can not authorize +the burial of a stranger in a family lot where his parents are buried and +against the protest of any other relative of equal or nearer degree of +kin.(797) When an owner of a lot has consented to the burial of a body +therein, he can not afterward remove the body or deface the tombstone, and +to do so would be a criminal offense.(798) When a lot is sold to one +person, the cemetery association has the right to limit interments to +members of the family owning the lot. However, where there is nothing +concerning it in the laws or rules of the association, it might be +different.(799) + +*454.* _Association, Bishop, Stipulation, Certificate, License, +Revocable._—The Germans of Cincinnati formed an association and purchased +ten acres of land for a cemetery “for German immigrants, their families, +and relatives, of Cincinnati and its vicinity, who might be members of the +Catholic Church and in accordance with the doctrine, discipline, usage, +and ceremonies of the same.” They incorporated with fifteen trustees to be +elected annually. Before he would bless the cemetery, the bishop required +and the committee stipulated with him in writing the following: That the +rules of the Catholic Church should always be faithfully observed in this +chiefly: First, that no one should be buried in the ground who had not +been baptized or who died out of communion of the Catholic Church, to +which the bishop or in his absence the clergy of the German Catholic +Church or churches, should be the judge; second, that no poor person +should be denied a place therein because his parents were unwilling to +pay; third, that any money accrued from the ground should be expended for +pious uses and specifically for the relief of the German Catholic poor; +fourth, that the remains of persons interred in Catharine Street +burial-ground might be removed to the new ground. The bishop subsequently +closed the cemetery as a place for burial of Catholics because the +congregation had violated the stipulation: “First, by admitting those to +burial who died out of the communion of the Catholic Church; second, by +refusing to poor persons the right of burial; third, by expending the +funds of the association in other than pious uses and relief of the poor.” +The court held that the corporation had authority to determine that the +cemetery should continue to be used as such, but the conditions might be +enforced by any one interested.(800) Also the question was brought before +the court in a case where a man had fallen away from the Church, and the +court held that the certificate was a mere license giving no property +rights, and revocable; and that the question as to whether the party to be +buried therein was in communion with the Church, was one over which the +Church itself had exclusive jurisdiction.(801) + +*455.* _Rules, Diocese._—One who buys the privilege of burying his dead in +a cemetery acquires no general right of property, but only a right to use +the grounds as a place of interment, and the rules governing a cemetery in +force at the time the privilege is acquired measure the extent of the use. +Where a rule of the church having charge of the cemetery forbids the +burial of non-Catholics therein, the bishop of the diocese and the local +priest, who according to the usage of the church were vested with control, +had authority and power to restrain a holder of a lot from interring the +body of his son who was not in communion with the church at the time of +his death, and who committed suicide.(802) + +*456.* _Negroes, Indians._—The fact that a man is a negro, Indian, or +other racial human being, is not good ground to prevent his burial in a +cemetery.(803) + +*457.* _Will, Body, Custody._—Where no disposition of a body has been made +by will, the surviving husband, or wife, or next of kin, has the right to +the body for the purpose of burial. But the right of the surviving wife or +husband, if they were living together at the time of the death of +deceased, is paramount to that of the next of kin.(804) A right to the +custody of the body of a deceased relative and to decide upon the final +place of burial where the deceased is unmarried, is in his next of kin, +and this right will be protected by the courts.(805) + +*458.* _Non-Residence, Burial._—Non-residence does not divest a person of +the right to burial with his relatives.(806) + +*459.* _State, Vacate, Equity, Rule._—The State may require the removal of +the bodies and vacate a cemetery without compensation to lot owners in +some extraordinary cases of eminent domain or as a health measure.(807) +Courts of equity exercise some discretion in cases that do not fall within +this rule.(808) But the superintendent of a cemetery has no right to +remove a child without the consent of the father who owns the lot.(809) + +*460.* _Consent, Bishop, Removal._—With the consent of deceased’s husband +before the funeral, the father of deceased paid for the lot in which his +daughter wished to be buried with her parents. Her mother being +dissatisfied with the location, the lot was subsequently exchanged for +another in the same cemetery; but after preliminary arrangements had been +made, the son-in-law applied to a court of equity for a writ restraining +the father and the bishop from removing the body. The bishop answered that +he was willing to conform to any order of the court. The court held that +by acceding to his wife’s request and allowing her father to bury her in +the first instance, and by standing mute while the arrangements for the +removal of the body were being made, the husband had no right thereafter +to prevent the removal of his wife’s body.(810) + +*461.* _Court, Remove, Consent._—In a proper case a court may grant a +decree to remove the body of a relative from one cemetery to another.(811) +Otherwise no one has the right to exhume or remove a body without the +consent of those having charge of the cemetery and of those having the +right of burial, as consort or the next of kin. In some States the offense +is a felony.(812) In Nebraska, at least, those who have the legal right to +bury a relative may remove his body from one Catholic cemetery to another +without the consent of the bishop.(813) + +*462.* _Crime, Fraud, Exhume, Autopsy._—In an action on an insurance +policy where there is evidence of fraud, as death by poison, a court may +order a body exhumed for examination, although the person having the right +to control the burial of the body is not a party to the suit.(814) Public +officials have the right to disinter a body to ascertain whether a crime +has been committed.(815) But without a coroner’s inquest or consent of the +surviving consort or next of kin, a doctor has no right to perform an +autopsy.(816) + +*463.* _Tort, Corpse._—The general rule is that an action of tort may be +maintained by the widow or next of kin for the mutilation of a corpse or +even for negligently exposing it to the elements.(817) In a few cases the +right has been denied.(818) + +*464.* _Custodian, Burial, Mutilation._—In the absence of a widow, a son +is the lawful custodian of the body of his deceased father for +preservation, representation, and burial, and may maintain an action for +unlawful mutilation thereof. The sense of outrage and mental suffering +resulting directly from the wilful mutilation of the body of a parent, is +a proper independent element of compensatory damages.(819) + +*465.* _Property in a Corpse, Mummy, Executors._—The question of property +in a corpse has been generally denied. However, in case of a mummy which +has become an object of curiosity, the case may be different. Where a +testator ordered his body burned and the executor presented a bill for +£321 for doing so, the court disallowed it on the ground that when a man +is dead his next of kin or executors have the right to dispose of his +body; but that as it is not property, a man has no right to bequeath it +for a particular purpose.(820) Also, where a man was in jail and died +during his imprisonment and the jailer refused to give up the body until +the debt was paid, the court held that there was no property in the +corpse, and therefore there could be no lien upon it and he must surrender +it.(821) + +*466.* _Rights, Duties, Body, Will._—While there is no property in a dead +body so that it may be sold, there are rights and duties out of which may +arise tort and criminal actions. The question of the right of a man to +dispose of his body by will is not well settled in this country.(822) +There are many cases that hold that a person has the right to make a +binding testamentary disposition of his own body after death.(823) But on +the contrary it has been held that one can not by his will confer any +right as to the disposition of his body.(824) + +*467.* _Monument, Fence._—Giving the right to bury in one’s cemetery lot +carries with it the right to erect a monument; but it does not carry with +it the right to fence the cemetery lot or interfere with other graves +therein. Therefore, the monument must be of such size and so located and +erected as not to interfere with the rights of others.(825) + +*468.* _Tombstone, Mother-in-Law._—A husband has the right to remove a +tombstone that his mother-in-law put over his wife’s grave, and put up one +of his own choice instead.(826) The general rule is that vaults and +tombstones are personal property and may be removed “in good faith and +with care and decency” by the next of kin.(827) + +*469.* _Trees, Authority._—It is a criminal offense to cut trees in a +cemetery without right or authority.(828) + +*470.* _Charitable, Institution, Negligence._—A Catholic cemetery without +capital stock or shares and paying no profits nor dividends, does not come +under the head of a charitable institution so as to relieve it from +liability for negligence.(829) + +*471.* _Equity, Repair, Injuries._—A cemetery association may by bill in +equity be forced to keep walks and drives in good repair and consequently +is liable for injuries resulting from its negligence.(830) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXXIV. MISCELLANEOUS + + +*472.* _Societies, Law._—Religious societies organized in connection with +a church or congregation are in law civil societies and not ecclesiastical +corporations, and are governed by the law of the land. Therefore, the law +of fraternities fully covers all questions that arise in such societies. +The subject is too comprehensive to be treated at any length here.(831) + +*473.* _Society, Bishop._—A society may expel a member on due notice and a +fair trial. The refusal of the bishop to recognize a fraternity organized +as a Roman Catholic society, does not prevent the society and its officers +from exercising the powers of a religious corporation conferred by law nor +prohibit its members from maintaining their religious worship.(832) + +*474.* _Priest, Doorkeeper, Policemen, Arrest._—A priest who was in charge +of a parish and had control of the temporalities consisting of pew-rents, +Sunday and other collections, graveyard, church, school, fees, and +donations, on account of disorderly behavior of members issued tickets to +those to be admitted and ordered a doorkeeper to prevent others from +entering the church. A woman without a ticket and talking loudly, +endeavored to force her way into the church, although there were several +policemen on duty who attempted to stop her. She was arrested and her +husband brought suit for false imprisonment. The court held that a +clergyman has a right to keep disturbers out of the church and that the +doorkeepers have a right to use sufficient force to carry out the orders +of the priest; but when a doorkeeper went beyond those orders by causing +the arrest of the woman, he was not acting within the apparent scope of +his employment and the priest was not liable.(833) + +*475.* _Saloon, Church, License._—A man owned premises that had been +occupied as a saloon from 1894. In 1896 the New York law prohibiting +saloons to be licensed within 200 feet of a church, except places where +liquor traffic had been carried on prior to that time, was passed. In 1898 +a church was built within 200 feet of the saloon in question. After the +building of the church, the saloon was vacated for about ten days during a +change of saloonkeepers, and an action was brought to revoke the license +of the new saloonkeeper. The court held that the incidental interruption +of the business did not bring the place within the prohibition of the law, +and that the license could not be revoked.(834) + +*476.* _Y. M. C. A._—The Y. M. C. A. on account of giving lunches, +lectures, and having a gymnasium, for which charges are made, is not a +charitable institution so as to be exempt from liability in case of +negligence. Property is exempt only when used for exempt purposes +exclusively.(835) + +*477.* _Students, Vote, Residence._—Students at a seminary studying for +the priesthood do not thereby lose their residence at their homes and are +not entitled to vote where a college is located. The fact that they intend +to remain for four years, become clergymen, and then go to wherever they +may be called, does not give them the right of residence, and there is no +distinction between them and any other students away from home at +school.(836) However, a student of full age might become a voter in the +college precinct if he has no other fixed domicile.(837) + +*478.* _“__My Wife, Anna Jones,__”__ Divorce, Insurance._—A bequest or +devise to “my wife, Anna Jones,” is not changed by a divorce without some +evidence to prove that the testator did not intend his divorced wife to +share in his estate, unless the judgment of divorce made a division of the +property. The same is true of a policy of insurance or benefit +certificate. However, there are exceptions that weaken the rule and make +its application in some States uncertain.(838) + +*479.* _Bells, Sick, Injunction._—On the complaint of an injured person, a +court will issue an injunction restraining the ringing of church, convent, +or other bells, at unusual hours or when their noise is injurious to the +sick, or when their vibration affects other premises. As the law of +nuisances applies in such cases, an exact statement of when the court +should issue the injunction or whether the injunction should be temporary +or perpetual, can not be given; but when the personal or property rights +of others are affected, an injunction may be granted. The fact that the +bells are chimes or part of a clock does not change the rule.(839) + +*480.* _Marriage, Impediments, Recording._—Legal marriage may be +contracted only between unmarried persons not related within the +prohibited degrees of consanguinity or affinity, of lawful age and +sufficient mental and physical capacity. Statutes vary greatly. In some +States affinity is not considered a legal objection and first cousins may +marry; in others, both are prohibited and other limitations of +relationship, race, and color are fixed, and registration of the clergymen +and licenses to wed are required. Also, the clergyman must report the +marriage promptly to the proper office. Fines, penalties, and imprisonment +are usually provided for violating the law. Informal marriages may or may +not be voidable or void.(840) + +*481.* _Charivari, Wedding Pranks._—Charivari, assaults, and disorderly +conduct are unlawful at all times, and can not be justified by +custom.(841) A newly wedded man who was serenaded (charivaried) by his +neighbors by firing guns, blowing horns, beating pans, rattling +horse-fiddles, etc., after ordering the rioters off fired into the crowd +and wounded one of them. On trial for assault with intent to kill, the +groom was acquitted. Shooting might not be justifiable in cases where less +potent agencies, such as a horsewhip or dogs, are sufficient, or where the +immediate protection of person or property does not call for it. The law +should be invoked when no exigency for force exists.(842) + +*482.* _Infallibility of Courts._—When a question of law at issue in a +case is duly presented to a supreme court which is the court of last +resort, its decision thereon becomes “the law of the case” and is +thereafter binding upon the court itself and all the courts inferior to +it; and no matter how often that identical case may come before the court +on subsequent appeals, the questions already decided therein will not be +reconsidered. It is interesting to compare this principle of our courts +with Papal infallibility.(843) Courts do not always adhere to the +rule.(844) + +*483.* _Money Stolen, Bailed or Loaned, Insolvency, Gifts._—Property +stolen by A. or left with him as bailee to be returned in specie, can not +be given away by him for charity. Also, when a man is insolvent he has no +right to give away any of his property.(845) That has been the rule of law +since Coke laid down the maxim: “A man must be just before he is +generous.” One is insolvent when his debts exceed the value of his +unexempt property.(846) When an insolvent debtor makes a gift, a creditor +may sue and recover from the donee; or in a proper case the creditor may +force the debtor into bankruptcy to recover the gift.(847) The want of +knowledge or good faith of the donee is immaterial and no defense to an +action to recover the property.(848) + + + + + +INDEX + + +The References Are To The Sections. + +A + +Abandoned cemetery, 449;

Special rules, set forth in the +General Terms of Use part of this license, apply to copying and +distributing Project Gutenberg™ electronic works to protect the Project +Gutenberg™ concept and trademark.

If you do not charge anything for copies of +this eBook, complying with the rules is very easy.

There are a few things that you can +do with most Project Gutenberg™ electronic works even without complying +with the full terms of this agreement. See paragraph 1.C below. There are +a lot of things you can do with Project Gutenberg™ electronic works if you +follow the terms of this agreement and help preserve free future access to +Project Gutenberg™ electronic works. See paragraph 1.E below. + + +1.C. + + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation (“the Foundation” or +PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project +Gutenberg™ electronic works. Nearly all the individual works in the +collection are in the public domain in the United States. If an individual +work is in the public domain in the United States and you are located in +the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from copying, +distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative works based on +the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of +course, we hope that you will support the Project Gutenberg™ mission of +promoting free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project +Gutenberg™ works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for +keeping the Project Gutenberg™ name associated with the work. You can +easily comply with the terms of this agreement by keeping this work in the +same format with its attached full Project Gutenberg™ License when you +share it without charge with others. + + +1.D. + + +The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern what you +can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in a constant +state of change.

Farley, + +[cross] _Archbishop of New York_. + +NEW YORK, January 15, 1909. + +COPYRIGHT, 1909, BY BENZIGER BROTHERS. + + + + + +PREFACE + + +The three learned professions, medicine, law, and theology, overlap; and a +man who does not know something of the other two can not be prominent in +his own. Laws relating to Church matters are scattered through such a vast +array of law books that it would be a burden for a clergyman to purchase +them, and without special training he would not know where to look for the +law. Therefore a law compendium covering those subjects relating to Church +matters must be of great value to a clergyman. + +There is another view of this subject. When she was mistress of the world +the laws of the Roman Empire were for the Roman citizens, particularly the +patricians; the canon law was the law of the Christian people of conquered +countries and the Christian plebeians of Rome. In the United States we +have the same common law for the President and the hod-carrier, for the +multimillionaire and the penniless orphan, for the clergy and the laity. +Consequently, in this practical age a knowledge of the law of the country +with which the clergy come constantly in contact is expedient, if not +necessary. + +The poet says: + + + "What constitutes a state?... + Men, who their duties know, + But know their rights, and knowing, dare maintain." + + +To insure harmony and good order, every Church should obey the laws of the +country; but if any law should impose upon the rights of the Church in any +way, the ruling authorities, the cardinal and bishops, if the wrong is +national, should unite in a petition to the United States Congress, +clearly stating the grievance and asking for its redress.(1) If the +grievance should be within a State, the bishop or bishops of the State +should present the matter to the Legislature of the State. If the +President or the Governor has authority to remedy the matter, go direct to +him. Such was the practice of the wisest of the Popes.(2) The author never +knew of an instance in which a clergyman having a real grievance failed in +obtaining a full and fair hearing from the powers that be, from the +President downward. This method seems to be more in harmony with the +relations of Church and State in a free government, and more intelligent +than to have a convention of working men, who have little time to make a +study of Church matters, pass resolutions, the passing of which generally +ends the action of a convention. + +In the chapters that follow, the author has refrained from giving a great +multitude of authorities, but has endeavored to give such as are +sufficient to sustain the text. For example, under the first section, and +many others, a list of citations covering several pages might be given. +That would add to the expense of the volume and would not be within its +compass. The book will better fulfil its purpose by clear, brief +statements of the rules of law, and if a reader desires to investigate +further, the citations given will guide his way. + +CHARLES M. SCANLAN. + +MILWAUKEE, JANUARY 23, 1909. + + + + + +CHAPTER I. INTRODUCTION + + +*1.* _Law, Religion._--From the dawn of the science of law it has been +influenced by religion or antagonism to religion. This is very evident in +the ancient laws of Babylonia, Egypt, Phenicia, Israel, India, and +Ireland. It would be impossible to make a study of the law of any of said +countries without gaining a knowledge of its religious system, whether +pagan or otherwise.(3) + +*2.* _Religions._--Ancient nations might be classified into pagan and those +that worshiped the universal God. However, some of the nations at one time +were pagan and at other times had a fair conception of the supernatural. +Also, in Egypt, the class of higher culture and education believed in the +one omnipotent and omniscient Being, but the populace, who could be +controlled more readily by flattering them in their notions and giving +their childish conceptions full sway, worshiped idols.(4) + +*3.* _Authority, Right._--In those nations where the ruling authority had +the proper conception of the Almighty, there was a strong, persistent +growth of law upon the basis of natural right; while in the pagan nations +laws were arbitrary and despotic.(5) + +*4.* _Philosophical Foundations._--The laws of Greece, down to the time of +Plato, were thoroughly pagan. But, following the philosophical foundations +laid by Plato and Aristotle, unintentionally and unwittingly the laws of +Greece became imbued with the spirit of natural law.(6) + +*5.* _Rome, Natural Justice._--Prior to the introduction of Grecian law +into Rome, the laws of that nation were pagan. Grecian law from its +introduction to the time of Octavius was the civilizing element of the +empire. Then it took a turn for the worse, the element of natural justice +being reduced and the element of arbitrary rule becoming dominant.(7) + +*6.* _Canon Law._--We will now turn to the first period of canon law, which +covers the early history of the Church up to the reign of Constantine the +Great.(8) + +Canon law is composed of the following elements: + + + 1. Holy Scriptures; + 2. Ecclesiastical tradition; + 3. Decrees of Councils; + 4. Bulls and rescripts of Popes; + 5. The writings of the Fathers; + 6. Civil law.(9) + + +*7.* _Early Christians._--Owing to the persecutions, the early Christians +were, in a sense, isolated from the State; they held their property in +common, and were governed in matters among themselves by the canon law. +However, for want of freedom of discussion and publication, they were +unable, even within a single nation of the empire, to promulgate a system +of canon law. The foundation of canon law being laid, its development upon +the manumission of the Church was rapid.(10) + +*8.* _Persecutions, Defenses._--During the religious persecutions the +Christians almost had law forced into them by surgical operations. The +necessity for their making defenses in the Roman tribunals induced many of +them to give Roman law a careful study. Also, the great number of +Christians held for trial on all sorts of accusations made that branch of +the law of the realm very lucrative for lawyers, and called into the field +many Christians. Incidently, men studying for the priesthood made a study +of Roman law with a view to avoiding its machinations and continuing their +functions as clergymen without being caught in the net of persecution.(11) + +*9.* _Constantine, Blending the Law._--When Emperor Constantine became a +Christian (325 A.D.), there was a great change, and the members of the bar +and judges were mostly Christians. It then became necessary for students +of law to study the principles of divine right as taught in the Church, +and while the books of the civil law were read by students for the +priesthood, the Scriptures and the works of the Fathers were read by the +students in law, thus blending the law of the two realms to some +extent.(12) + +*10.* _"__Benefit of the Clergy,__"__ Ecclesiastical Court._--As the old +Roman Empire decayed and its power waned, the new one, "The Holy Roman +Empire," gradually implanted itself in southwestern Europe. The +humiliation that the divine law and the clergy suffered in being brought +into the common courts gave rise to a system of courts within the Church +for the purpose of enforcing her morals, doctrines, and discipline. Those +courts were established in all Christian countries and had jurisdiction of +all felonies excepting arson, treason, and a few other crimes that from +time to time were put under the special jurisdiction of the state courts. +Whenever a clergyman was arrested for a crime, he pleaded the "benefit of +the clergy," and his case was transferred from the state court to the +ecclesiastical court. Also, when a clergyman was convicted in the state +court of any crime for which the punishment was death, he could plead the +"benefit of the clergy," which was a protection against his execution.(13) + +*11.* _Estates, Guardianship._--Besides the jurisdiction already referred +to, the ecclesiastical court had jurisdiction over the settlement of +estates and the guardianship of children, which varied in different +countries and was very indefinite in some of them.(14) + +*12.* _Middle Ages, Common Law._--During the Middle Ages there was a +constant effort on behalf of the ecclesiastical courts to extend their +jurisdiction, and a counter-effort on behalf of the state courts to assume +jurisdiction of cases under the ecclesiastical law. In England, from the +conquest of William the Conqueror to the Reformation, the extension of the +jurisdiction of the ecclesiastical courts brought the new element of +English common law into the canon law; and much of the canon law, +following the jurisdiction assumed by the state courts, became the common +law of the kingdom of England.(15) + +*13.* _Gratian, Reformation._--The canon law reached its full development +in the twelfth century, when Gratian, the Blackstone of his age, compiled +the system, but it subsequently lost its influence when the Reformation +prevailed.(16) + +*14.* _Bologna._--The great school of jurisprudence, both of canon and +civil law, was located at Bologna, Italy, which reached its zenith in the +thirteenth century. To it students flocked from Western Europe, and from +it were obtained the professors of law in the universities of England and +other countries.(17) + +*15.* _Church and State._--In most of the Christian countries, the Church +and State were united, and many of the judges in the civil courts were +clergymen.(18) + +*16.* _England, Roman Law._--On account of England's being subject to Rome +in its earliest age, and afterward because of its being conquered by +France, the Roman law was pretty thoroughly intermixed with the native +English law in the minor matters of the people, and governed in the more +important ones.(19) + +*17.* _America, English Law, Civil Law._--The portions of America that were +settled by the English, which included the original thirteen colonies, +were under the English law. In Virginia the Episcopal Church, which was +then the church of England, was made the church of state. Canada and that +portion of the United States formerly known as Louisiana were governed by +the civil law of France. Wherever the French government had no authority +or civil officers, the government was directly under the missionaries of +the Church.(20) + +*18.* _Religious Tolerance, Established Church._--The English law and +English ideals prevailing in the original thirteen colonies,(21) there was +a strong effort made by many of the delegates to the constitutional +convention to have the Episcopal Church made the established church of the +new republic. Thomas Jefferson and James Madison were probably the +strongest opponents of the scheme, and outside of the great Carroll of +Carrollton, they were the most earnest advocates of religious tolerance. +The necessity for the fathers of this republic to be united, and their +being unable to unite upon any church, caused the idea of an established +church to be eliminated. Thus was established in our republic the freedom +of conscience and the guarantee that no one shall be persecuted on account +of his religious convictions.(22) + +*19.* _Tribunals._--The ecclesiastical courts as a part of the state system +and the "benefit of the clergy," have been abolished in England and +America. However, as we shall see further on, tribunals in the nature of +the ecclesiastical court exist in churches and fraternities of all kinds +in the United States.(23) + + + + + +CHAPTER II. WHAT IS A CHURCH? + + +*20.* _Church, Religious Society._--Bouvier's definition of "Church" is: "A +society of persons who profess the Christian religion." Chief Justice +Shaw's definition is: "The church is neither a corporation nor a +quasi-corporation, but a body of persons associated together for certain +objects under the law. An aggregate body of individuals associated +together in connection with a religious society. The term religious +society may with propriety be applied in a certain sense to a church as +that of religious association, religious union, or the like; yet in the +sense church was and is used in our law, it is synonymous with parish or +precinct and designates an incorporated society created and maintained for +the support and maintenance of public worship. In this, its legal sense, a +church is not a religious society. It is a separate body formed within +such parish or religious society whose rights and usages are well known +and to a great extent defined and established by law."(24) + +*21.* _Doctrine, Constitution._--A church in law is a mere fraternal +organization. It may or may not have a written constitution, but it must +have some central doctrine as its foundation or constitution.(25) Many of +the Protestant denominations claim that the entire Bible is their +constitution. The Jews may be said to consider the Old Testament as their +constitution. All revealed truths may be said to be the constitution of +the Catholic Church,(26) and when a doctrine concerning faith or morals is +authoritatively declared by the Church to be a truth, it becomes a +dogma.(27) The Apostles' Creed is an example of several dogmatic truths. +The code of the Church is the Ten Commandments. A few sects, by a majority +vote, make and change their constitutions at will. + +*22.* _By-Laws._--By-laws of the different religious organizations differ +widely, from the decrees of the great councils of the Catholic Church down +to the vote of the congregation of an independent denomination. + +*23.* _Church, Religious Society._--A church in one sense is more limited +than a religious society; the latter comprehending all the members of the +same faith. Even in the Catholic Church we hear of the Church of France, +the Coptic Church, etc., spoken of in this sense. And in a still more +limited sense we use the word as a synonym for parish. However, when the +word "the" is used before church written with a capital letter, Catholics +understand it to apply to the Roman Catholic Church in its entirety, while +some non-Catholics apply it to Christendom. + +*24.* _Church, Christians, Religion._--The missions established in +California prior to its admission into the Union were, in law, practically +independent organizations and had no legal connection with the Church. +Every society organized for the purpose of propagating the practice of +religion may be a church in law.(28) The courts have made a distinction +between Unitarians, who are considered Christians, and Deists, Theists, +Free Religionists, and other infidels.(29) A sect or denomination without +a given system of faith is not recognized as a religion in law.(30) + +*25.* _Doctrine, Standard._--To ascertain the tenets and doctrines of a +church, resort must be had to history and to prior and contemporary +standard writings of its members on theology.(31) + +*26.* _Ecclesiastical Corporations, Religious, Quasi-public +Corporations._--Ecclesiastical corporations, in the sense in which the word +is used in England, Germany, and France, are unknown to the United States, +their places being supplied by religious societies or corporations +considered as private bodies, in contradistinction to public or +quasi-public corporations, such as towns, villages, cities, counties, and +state. Therefore, the law of private corporations applies to religious +societies and churches. + +*27.* _Sect, Sectarianism._--The Supreme Court of Nevada defines "sect" as +follows: "A religious sect is a body or number of persons united in +tenets, but constituting a distinct organization or party, by holding +sentiments or doctrines different from those of other sects or people. In +the sense intended in the constitution, every sect of that character is +'sectarian' and all members thereof are sectarians."(32) In Pennsylvania +the court adopted the definitions given in the Standard and in Webster's +dictionaries.(33) The Supreme Court of Missouri, citing Webster's and the +Century dictionaries, gave the following additional definition of +sectarianism: "Sectarianism includes adherence to a distinct political +party, as much as to a separate sect."(34) The Presbyterians(35) and the +"Shakers"(36) have been adjudged sects. + +*28.* _Sectarian._--"Sectarian" has received more contradictory +constructions than any other equally simple word in the English language. +In Wisconsin the "King James" Bible was held to be a sectarian book;(37) +but in Kentucky it was held that neither the Douay nor the "King James" +Bible was a sectarian book.(38) The Missouri court extended sectarian so +as to apply to the Republican party.(39) In Illinois an industrial school +for girls in which the Catholic Sisters were employed as teachers, was +held a sectarian institution;(40) while in Wisconsin, the "Wisconsin +Industrial School for Girls," a private corporation organized and +conducted by Protestant ladies, has received appropriations from the State +and has had its reports published at state's expense, as a non-sectarian +institution.(41) In New York the religious garb of the Catholic Sisters +was practically decided to be sectarian;(42) but in Pennsylvania and +Wisconsin it was decided that the dress of the Sisters was not +sectarian.(43) + +*29.* _Worship, Services, Mass._--Any act of adoration, reverence, praise, +thanks, honor, or veneration given to God, is religious worship.(44) A +Sunday-school where the Bible was read and a hymn sung and a state +temperance camp-meeting where a prayer was said and hymns were sung, were +held to be places of divine worship.(45) But a priest's house where he had +a room fitted up for a chapel, was held to be not a place of worship.(46) +It is very difficult to draw a line--no matter what curves you may give +it--between the Protestant system of worship, which consists of the reading +of the Bible, the singing of hymns, and the reciting of prayers, and such +services in the public schools. Also, there would seem to be no _legal_ +difference between a prayer said or a hymn sung by a Catholic and a +Protestant. As we have no established church in this country, we have no +standard for prayers, hymns, or music.(47) + +More solemn and impressive than her prayers adapted for schools is the +Mass of the Catholic Church, defined thus: "The Mass is the unbloody +sacrifice of the body and blood of Christ."(48) It is defined in 26 Cyc, +940, as follows: "A religious ceremonial or observance of the Catholic +Church;(49) a Catholic ceremonial celebrated by the priest in open church, +where all who choose may be present and participate therein;(50) the +sacrifice in the sacrament of the Eucharist or the consecration and +oblation of the Host."(51) + +*30.* _Parish._--A parish has two meanings. In some States it is a minor +division of public territory; but in States where there is no such +division of territory, the State using instead "county" or "town," a +parish rather applies to the people belonging to a particular church, who +worship at a particular place. It is in the latter sense in which a parish +should be construed in church law.(52) + +_Parishioner._--A parishioner must be defined in harmony with the meaning +of the word "parish."(53) + +*31.* _Clergyman._--A clergyman is a man in holy orders or one who has been +ordained in accordance with the rules of his church or denomination.(54) + +*32.* _Minister._--A minister is one who acts as, or performs some of the +functions of, a clergyman.(55) + +*33.* _Rector or Pastor._--A rector or pastor is a clergyman who has charge +of a parish.(56) + +*34.* _Religion._--Religion is still further distinguished, but not very +satisfactorily defined, for the reason that etymologists have not agreed +upon the derivation of the word. When the matter was brought before our +courts and it became necessary to give a definition, the highest court in +our country gave the following: "The term 'religion' has reference to +one's views of his relations to his Creator, and to the obligations they +impose of reverence for His being and character, and of obedience to His +will. It is often confounded with _cultus_ or form of worship of a +particular sect, but it is distinguishable from the latter."(57) One of +our highest courts held that "religion," as used in the trust provision in +a will for the purchase and distribution of religious books or reading as +they shall be deemed best, means "Christian."(58) But the Supreme Court of +another State held that "religion" is not equivalent to "Christian" +religion, but means the religion of any class of men.(59) Judge Willis +defines "religion" thus: "It is what a man honestly believes in and +approves of and thinks it his duty to inculcate on others whether with +regard to this world or the next; a belief in any system of retribution by +an overruling power. It must, I think, include the principle of gratitude +to an active power who can confer blessings."(60) + + + + + +CHAPTER III. CONSTITUTIONAL LAW + + +*35.* _Religious Tests._--The constitution of the United States provides +that "no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any +office or public trust under the United States."(61) + +*36.* _Test Oath, Attainder._--No test oath of any kind, whether religious +or otherwise, can be required of a citizen of the United States. Therefore +the test oath of Congress requiring an officer to swear that he never +voluntarily bore arms against the United States, was held +unconstitutional. Exclusion from any vocation on account of past conduct +is punishment and contrary to the constitution on the subject of bills of +attainder.(62) But there is a limitation to this rule to prevent the open +violation of the laws of the United States or any State under the cloak of +religion.(63) + +*37.* _Establishment of Religion, Free Exercise._--The first amendment to +the United States constitution provides that "Congress shall make no law +respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise +thereof." + +*38.* _Sovereignty, States, Bigamy._--The courts have held that this +provision applies to Congress only, and can not be construed to interfere +with the sovereignty of the several States; that the constitutional +guarantee of religious freedom was not intended to prohibit legislation +against polygamy; and that section 5352 of the United States Revised +Statutes against bigamy, is constitutional. Also, that on a trial for +bigamy in Utah, a man who was living in polygamy was not competent to +serve as a juror.(64) + +*39.* _Church of the Latter-Day Saints._--In 1851 the assembly of the +so-called State of Deseret, which subsequently became the territory of +Utah, incorporated "the Church of the Latter-Day Saints." In 1887 Congress +repealed the act of incorporation and abrogated the charter, which the +Supreme Court held was within its plenary powers. The pretense of +religious belief can not deprive Congress of the power to prohibit +polygamy and all other open offenses against the enlightened sentiments of +mankind.(65) + +*40.* _Crime, Religion._--The law prohibiting any person who is a +polygamist or bigamist, or who teaches, advises, counsels, or encourages +the same, from holding any office of honor, trust, or profit, is +constitutional; and a crime is none the less so, nor less odious, because +it is sanctioned by what any particular sect may designate as religion. A +state has the right to legislate for the punishment of all acts inimical +to the peace, good order, and morals of society.(66) + +*41.* _Donation, Hostile, Religion._--On the other hand the United States +Supreme Court declared the legal right of donees of a college to make as a +condition of the donation that all ecclesiastics, missionaries, and +ministers of any sort, should be excluded from holding any station of duty +in the college or even visiting the same. The condition being only +negatively derogatory and hostile to the Christian religion, did not make +the devise for the foundation of the college void.(67) + +*42.* _Christian Scientist._--A law requiring a person to be a physician to +treat the sick, is constitutional; and the defense of a person who has no +license to practise, that he is a Christian Scientist, is not good. Also, +a parent must furnish a doctor for his sick child, notwithstanding that he +believes in prayer cure.(68) + +*43.* _Protestant._--In the early days, under the constitution of the +State, the courts of Massachusetts practically held that the Protestant +religion was the religion of that State.(69) Also, the constitution of New +Hampshire referred to different Christians, and the court in construing +the terms "Roman Catholic" and "Protestant," held that any one who did not +assent to the truth of Christianity as a distinct system of religion, +could not be classed as either. The court stated that Mohammedans, Jews, +pagans, and infidels, are neither "Catholics" nor "Protestants." The term +"Protestant," as used in the constitution of New Hampshire, includes all +Christians who deny the authority of the Pope of Rome. When the children +of Protestant parents renounce that religion, and voluntarily accept +another, they cease to be Protestants.(70) At present under the +constitution of New Hampshire, the legislature may authorize towns or +parishes to provide for the support of Protestant ministers.(71) + +*44.* _Hospitals, Sisters, Appropriation._--In 1864, Providence Hospital, +of Washington, was incorporated by an act of Congress, for general +hospital purposes. In 1897, $30,000 was appropriated for the District of +Columbia to put up two isolation buildings in connection with two +hospitals in that city, to be operated as a part of such hospitals. +Providence Hospital was selected as one, and because it was in charge of +Sisters of the Roman Catholic Church, the right of Congress to make the +appropriation was disputed. Among other things, Judge Peackham says: +"Whether the individuals who compose the corporation under its charter +happen to be all Roman Catholics, or all Methodists, or all Presbyterians, +or Unitarians, or members of any other religious organization, or of no +organization at all, is of not the slightest consequence with reference to +the law of its corporation, nor can the individual beliefs upon religious +matters of the various incorporators be inquired into." The appropriation +was "for two hospital buildings to be constructed in the discretion of the +commissioners of the District of Columbia on the grounds of two hospitals +and to be operated as a part of such hospitals."(72) + +*45.* _Constitution, Rights._--The provisions in the constitution do not in +any way interfere with property rights obtained by a church organization +prior to its adoption.(73) + +*46.* _Aid, Contracts._--Under the constitution of the United States, +Congress cannot make appropriations for nor give aid to any denomination. +Also, similar provisions are in many of the constitutions of the States. +However, many cases arise out of contracts which border upon these various +rules, and in some States the constitutional provision of the State is +such that the State Legislature may legislate concerning religion and give +certain aid and support thereto. Paying rent to a congregation for a +school-room is not an appropriation or aid to a church contrary to the +constitution.(74) + +*47.* _Protestant Teacher, Tax._--Formerly every parish in Massachusetts +was obliged to elect and support a Protestant teacher, and might erect +churches and parsonages. To provide the expenses thereof, a tax might be +assessed upon the polls of the inhabitants.(75) Until 1890 New Hampshire +permitted a tax to be levied in towns for religious purposes. It is still +legal under the New Hampshire constitution to tax the inhabitants for the +purpose of supporting Protestant teachers, but not to support a teacher of +any other denomination.(76) A section of land in every township in Ohio +was set apart for religious societies, in which they all shared +equally.(77) Vermont had a similar provision.(78) + +*48.* _Office, God._--The constitutions of Arkansas, Mississippi, North +Carolina, South Carolina, and Texas, prohibit a man from holding office +who denies the existence of a Supreme Being; and the constitutions of +Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, and Tennessee, make all clergymen ineligible +to hold a civil office.(79) + +*49.* _Religious Liberty, Bible, Religious Garb, Wages._--The authorities +are not uniform as to what constitutes a violation of religious liberty. +The question of whether the reading of the Bible in the public schools is +a violation of the constitution, is an open one in some States and in +others the courts have passed upon it, some holding that it is a violation +of the constitution,(80) and some holding that it is not.(81) The weight +of authority seems to permit the reading of the "King James" Bible,(82) +and where portions only are read, as in "reading books" prepared for +school work, or where the children are not obliged to be present during +the exercises, the cases seem to be unanimous that it is not a violation +of the constitution.(83) In Pennsylvania the court held that while Sisters +in their religious garb might be teachers in the public schools, they +could not give instruction in the Catholic religion at the schoolhouse +before or after school hours, or at any other time use the school building +for religious purposes. Also, in Wisconsin the court decided that while a +portion of a parochial school building might be leased for public school +purposes and the Sisters be employed therein as teachers, religious +exercises and instructions could not be given in such leased premises.(84) +In New York it was held not only that Sisters could not wear their +religious garb or pray in school, but that they could not collect wages +for teaching.(85) + + + + + +CHAPTER IV. STATUTORY LAW + + +*50.* _Wisconsin, Mississippi, New York._--The statutory law of the +different States of the Union is so varied and the laws of one State are +of so little interest to the people of another that it would be almost +useless and beyond the boundaries of this work to give the substance of +the various statutes. In some States there is a limitation upon the real +estate that a church or charitable organization may hold, and in other +States there is no limitation whatever. Wisconsin, perhaps, occupies the +extreme of greatest liberality, by not only allowing full freedom in +everything relating to religion and charity, but it further excepts from +the limitation all rights of alienation of real estate granted or devised +to a charitable association or to literary or charitable corporations +organized under the law of the State. The State of Mississippi probably +stands at the other extreme both in the narrowness of its constitution and +statutory law, and prohibits any devise or bequest of any personal +property or real estate in favor of any religious or ecclesiastical +corporation or any religious or ecclesiastical society. Neither does it +exempt a clergyman, physician, or lawyer, from examination as a witness +concerning information that he obtained in the performance of his +functions or duties as such. Its judges, however, are more liberal than +its legislators, and I know of no instance in which a clergyman, +physician, or lawyer, as a witness, was sent to jail for contempt of court +for not divulging information obtained in his professional capacity. +Probably New York has the most complete code(86) relating to religious +corporations. + +*51.* _Real Estate, Parish, Diocese, Taxation._--It is very important that +a congregation about to purchase real estate should examine and understand +the statutory law of the State governing the powers and authority of the +Church as a civil organization. In some States there is no special law for +incorporating religious societies; while in most States there are special +provisions therefor. For this reason, I emphasize the fact that no parish +or clergyman is justified in organizing a congregation or purchasing land +without first knowing the law of that particular State. But generally it +is best that each congregation be incorporated and that its property be +held in the name of the corporation, so that the debts of one corporation +will not embarrass the diocese, and that bequests and gifts made to a +church may be enforced in the courts. The proceedings to incorporate are +fully stated in the statutes of each State. One of the things of the +utmost importance is that any notice to be given must be given strictly as +required by law.(87) Another is to incorporate in the way that avoids +taxation.(88) + +*52.* _Riot, Damages._--Under a statute providing that a person whose +property is destroyed by riot may bring suit against the county for +damages, a corporation for religious purposes, as well as an individual, +has a right of action.(89) + +*53.* _Use, Change, Parsonage, Discipline, Doctrine, Curate._--When a fee +simple is acquired by a religious corporation, without restriction as to +quantity, but limiting the purpose of its use, a subsequent Legislature, +with the consent of the corporation, has power to change or abrogate +altogether the restrictions as to the use of the land.(90) And the +Legislature may empower the church corporation to convey a house devised +to it for a parsonage with a condition that it be kept in repair, and +invest the proceeds in other property to be held for the same purpose.(91) +A State legislature can not interfere in church discipline and doctrine, +as by legislating what shall constitute a curate in the Catholic +Church.(92) + + + + + +CHAPTER V. UNINCORPORATED CHURCH SOCIETIES + + +*54.* _Partners, Debt, Liability._--Where several go into an undertaking +without first being incorporated they are usually liable as partners, each +one being responsible for the whole debt. In some States the same +liability exists where an attempt has been made to incorporate, but there +was a failure to comply fully with the law.(93) There is some authority +freeing the individual members of a religious society from liability for +the debts of such society,(94) and holding that an agent of such society +could not bind the society in their associated capacity by a promissory +note,(95) but the rule is that the members of an unincorporated society +who actively incur lawful debts or ratify them after their creation are +personally liable. There are exceptions to this rule by statute or +decisions in a few States.(96) Also, the law of personal liability is +settled in England.(97) + +*55.* _Pastor, Salary._--In a late case in Wisconsin where a pastor had a +contract with his congregation as to his salary, after the clergyman's +death his heirs recovered the unpaid part of his salary in an action +against a few of the individual members of the congregation.(98) + +*56.* _Building, Materials._--The members of the building committee of an +unincorporated church are liable for materials purchased by them for the +church, notwithstanding that the seller charged the materials in the name +of the church, and that at the time that the purchase was made, he was +told that the money for payment was to be raised by subscription among the +congregation.(99) + +*57.* _Management, Disability._--An unincorporated society is managed by +those who are competent to transact their own business. Therefore, it +would seem that members must be men over twenty-one years of age, and not +under legal disability. The minor sons in a family who have continued +their attendance at the religious services until of full age, are +considered members.(100) + +*58.* _Shakers, Sect, Catholic Church, Trustees, Funds._--Although the sect +called Shakers is not incorporated, yet it has been allowed to take and +hold property for church purposes.(101) In Massachusetts, by statute, a +sect may take and hold property for religious purposes without +incorporation.(102) The Roman Catholic Church is a recognized public +corporation by most nations, including the United States.(103) No +individual member of any such body has any title to the lands it holds, +but the lands are the property of the society in its aggregate +capacity.(104) After property has been acquired, the trustees have no +right to distribute it among the members, as such power could not be +conferred upon them by a majority vote even when approved by an order of +the court. The contributors did not intend their funds to be so disposed +of, and if they failed to attain the use intended, they must be returned +to the donors, and if not called for, would escheat to the state.(105) +Where an unincorporated society has purchased property and taken the title +thereto in the name of one of its members, when it subsequently +incorporates such member may be required to execute a conveyance to the +corporation.(106) + +*59.* _Contract, Binding._--Persons forming a religious society may make a +contract for the support of its minister by a majority vote.(107) When +such unincorporated society by a majority vote enters into a contract or +compromises a suit, it is binding upon the minority.(108) + +*60.* _Court, Trust._--Any member of an unincorporated society may go into +a court of equity on behalf of himself and others to enforce the execution +of a trust in favor of the society.(109) + +*61.* _Societies, Membership, Forfeiture._--Voluntary religious societies +when not restricted by their charters or articles of association, may make +by-laws declaring what shall constitute membership and what shall operate +as a forfeiture thereof, applicable to existing as well as to future +members. Where money is voted to be raised by an assessment to be made at +a subsequent period, a person who was a member of the religious society at +the time that such vote was passed, but withdraws before the time of +assessment, is not liable to taxation.(110) + + + + + +CHAPTER VI. INCORPORATED RELIGIOUS SOCIETIES + + +*62.* _Special Law, General Laws._--In most of the States there is a +special law under which congregations may be incorporated. New York is a +good example.(111) Where such law does not exist, the congregation may be +incorporated under the general laws. For business reasons each +congregation should be incorporated.(112) + +*63.* _Officers, Discipline, Property._--When a church society incorporates +it becomes a private corporation, and the officers are bound to manage the +property in the most upright and careful manner according to the +discipline of the church.(113) When a parish incorporates, the title to +the parish property vests in the corporation, to which trustees may be +compelled to convey it.(114) + +*64.* _Incorporation, Evidence._--The certificate of incorporation or +charter of a religious society or a certified copy thereof from the public +record, is the proper evidence thereof.(115) Secondary evidence and +evidence _aliunde_ may be competent in some forums.(116) In most States if +incorporation is alleged in the complaint, it need not be proved unless +denied by an affidavit or a verified answer. + +*65.* _Congregation, Members._--The act of incorporation applies only to +the particular congregation petitioning for it and does not extend to +other churches, even though they are a subsequent growth within the same +territory.(117) Incorporation once established is presumed to +continue.(118) When a new religious society is formed and incorporated, +consisting of individuals from existing parishes, the members of the new +society from the time of its incorporation cease to be members of the +respective parishes to which they had belonged.(119) + +*66.* _Temporal Affairs, Management._--A majority of a religious +corporation at a regularly called meeting may, by a vote taken, bind the +minority in all temporal affairs.(120) The character of membership in the +religious corporation may be very different from that of membership in the +church.(121) The fact that a member has been declared out of the church by +an ecclesiastical tribunal, may not affect his rights in the management of +the temporal concerns of the corporation.(122) + +*67.* _Corporators, Change._--In isolated cases here and there it has been +held that a majority of the corporators of a religious society has the +right to change the form of church government, as from the Congregational +Church to an organization in connection with the Presbyterian Church.(123) +But it is a general rule that a majority of the congregation can act only +consistently with the particular and general laws of the church +organization, but not in violation of them.(124) + +*68.* _Constitution, Subsequent Laws._--An ecclesiastical society formed +before the adoption of the state constitution is not by that constitution +and subsequent laws concerning religious societies divested of its legal +character.(125) + +*69.* _Name, Change._--The name of an ecclesiastical corporation is +arbitrary and a change or alteration in its name does not affect its +identity.(126) A charter will not be granted to a church with a name so +like another church in the same State, that one may be taken for the +other.(127) + +*70.* _Church, Regular._--In church organizations those who adhere to the +regular order of the church, legal and general, though a minority, are the +true congregation and constitute the corporation if incorporated.(128) + +*71.* _Notice, Legal._--All the proceedings of a corporation, including +notice, must be in accordance with the constitution and by-laws, and no +business transacted contrary thereto is legal.(129) + +*72.* _Control, Secede, Vested Rights._--The officers of a church +corporation have control of the business management for all civil +purposes, excepting as otherwise provided by the articles of organization, +charter, or by-laws of the corporation. However, the by-laws must not +contravene the laws of the State.(130) A charter was refused in +Pennsylvania which provided that the congregation might, by a majority +vote, dissolve or secede from the central body and divide the +property.(131) A charter of incorporation may be amended in harmony with +the principles, discipline, and objects of the church, but not +otherwise.(132) The fact that incorporation of a church confers certain +rights and privileges under the charter, such charter being accepted, does +not give the church corporation any vested rights.(133) + +*73.* _Consolidation, Control, Dissolution._--So far as the State law is +concerned, two different denominations may form one corporation;(134) or +two or more congregations of the same organization may form one +corporation.(135) Where such consolidation is attempted, the new +organization must have control of all the property.(136) So long as +different congregations attempting to consolidate retain their respective +identities, they do not form a single corporation.(137) It is a general +rule that a corporation may be dissolved by taking the steps required by +law. As there are various statutory provisions in the different States, +each case had best be attended to by an attorney. In some States there is +a provision that where a corporation fails to carry out its functions for +a stated time, it thereby becomes dissolved. The omission of a parish for +one year to elect officers, does not necessarily operate as a dissolution +under such statute. In case of dissolution under a statute of that kind, +the property of the church is not forfeited to the State.(138) + +*74.* _Debt, Limited._--The amount of debt which the trustees of a +religious society may be authorized to create, may be limited by its +constitution.(139) + +*75.* _Conditions, Effect._--Where $1,000 was given defendants to erect and +maintain forever a Lutheran church and prohibiting the grantee from +alienating or disposing of or otherwise changing or encumbering the land +by deed, a mortgage given to secure a legitimate debt was held valid, as +the legal title was in the corporation and a court of equity could not +refuse to enforce the mortgage for the payment of an honest debt under +color of protecting a charitable use.(140) But property given a +congregation for the maintenance of a church that becomes dissolved, +reverts to the heirs as a resulting trust.(141) A corporation that has +been authorized to purchase land may execute a mortgage for the purchase +money or a part of it without further authority.(142) Where by an ancient +agreement a meeting-house was to remain in a particular place, a vote of +the congregation will not justify pulling it down, and an action of +trespass will lie for razing it and damages will be given for the value of +the building.(143) + +*76.* _Suits, Parties._--When a church is incorporated, it should be sued +in its corporate name; but when the bishop of the Catholic church holds +the legal title to the land in litigation, he should be made a party.(144) +And if there are two sets of officers contending for control, service of +the papers upon the intruders may not be sufficient. The safer practice is +to serve upon both.(145) A suit by the trustees of a religious society to +restrain other parties claiming to be trustees from interfering in the +management and control of the society property, is properly brought in the +corporate name of the trustees and not in the name of the State.(146) + +*77.* _Incorporation, Sufficient._--Where the articles of incorporation +were drawn and signed in the form required by law, excepting as to the +acknowledgment, and were recorded, and the corporation organized in good +faith, it became a _de facto_ corporation and was sufficient to entitle it +to sue to prevent certain members from perverting the use of its +property.(147) + +*78.* _Dissolution, Fund._--The corporation of a congregation can not by +seceding and a majority vote dissolve the corporation where it is a part +of a superior body.(148) But the courts have plenary powers over +corporations under the United States jurisdiction, such as territories, +and may dissolve a corporation.(149) The fact that the dissolution is +contrary to, or authorized by church discipline, makes no difference as to +granting the dissolution, as such discipline can not supersede the state +law.(150) On dissolution of a religious corporation, the surplus fund +derived from a legacy should be disposed of in the manner the court +believes to be most in harmony with the will of the contributors to the +fund, could they have foreseen the event.(151) + +*79.* _Reorganization._--A church corporation may reorganize and be +reinstated into all rights that it formerly had.(152) The steps to be +taken to reorganize are usually provided by statute and should be closely +followed. Upon the reorganization, the old corporation becomes +terminated.(153) + +*80.* _Meetings, Majority, Quorum._--In corporate meetings, meetings of +boards, and meetings of committees duly called, a majority vote of those +present determines the action of the body. If the membership is +indefinite, those who attend such meeting constitute a quorum; but if the +membership is definite, it requires a majority of the voting members to +constitute a quorum, unless the law of the State or the constitution +(articles of organization) or by-laws provide a different number.(154) + + + + + +CHAPTER VII. SUPERIOR AUTHORITY + + +*81.* _Protestant, Ministers, Bishop._--In most church organizations the +authority is divided into superior and inferior. In countries where there +is an established Protestant church, the superior authority is first in +the king and queen and secondly in the bishops. The inferior authority is +in the ministers and secular officers of the church. Where there is no +established church, the synod or bishop is the superior authority. Thus +decisions of our courts usually apply to all churches alike. + +*82.* _Roman Catholic Church, Pope, Bishops, Delegated._--In the Roman +Catholic Church the superior authority is first in the Pope and secondly +in the other bishops. This superior authority is graded and some of it may +be delegated, as in case of a Papal delegate. But the general rule that +delegated authority can not be again delegated by the delegate without +special authority applies to church matters. + +*83.* _Bishop, Discipline, Clergy._--Within his diocese the bishop is the +executive officer, the legislature, and the judiciary; but he is subject +to the superior authority of the Church. The bishop may make laws for his +diocese, subject to the limitation of the general doctrine and discipline +of the Church. He has original jurisdiction of all causes arising in his +diocese, and may decide them in the first instance and inflict such +penalties, suspension, or excommunication, in accordance with the canons +of the Church, as he deems fit. The clergy are subject to his orders and +discipline according to the canon law. However, without special contract, +the bishop is not civilly liable for the salary of a priest under him, +either while he is actually in the line of his assigned duties or while +waiting to be assigned.(155) + +*84.* _Local, Secular Matters._--There is still another division of +superior and inferior authority: the local corporation or congregation has +nothing whatever to do with the doctrinal or disciplinary functions of the +Church; but has only such powers and authority with regard to secular +matters as is provided by the laws of the State or conferred by the +articles of organization, charter, and by-laws. Also, unless there is some +other rule to the contrary, only the male members who are over twenty-one +years of age, have a voice and vote in such corporation.(156) + +*85.* _Unincorporated, Authority._--When a church is not incorporated, all +its elections and proceedings, so far as they are not contrary to the laws +of the State, must be in accordance with the rules and regulations of the +Church; and the rule that the inferior authority must give way to the +superior authority in all matters within the limitations of the +constitution and laws of the organization, prevails.(157) However, courts +are not always clear on the last part of this rule.(158) + +*86.* _Tribunal, Action, Appeal._--When any question arises and is being +adjudicated in the tribunal of the church organization, either as an +original action or on appeal, the State court will not interfere so long +as the proceedings are in accordance with the rules and regulations of the +church, unless some vested right to property is in question or some one's +right as a citizen of the State or of the United States is being +infringed.(159) + +*87.* _Spiritual Authority, Excommunication._--Neither the Pope nor the +bishop has any but spiritual authority within the State.(160) The law of +this country considers excommunication as expelling from membership; but +does not tolerate interference with civil or property rights of citizens. +Therefore, major excommunication _non tolerati_, is unlawful in the United +States.(161) However, a bishop is not liable for any expression of his +opinion as to the extent of his episcopal authority nor for any act of +omission in the exercise of his spiritual functions.(162) The civil courts +will not go behind a church authority to inquire as to excommunication, +but may examine as to the competency of the tribunal according to the laws +of the denomination.(163) + +*88.* _Constitution, Limited, Decisions._--A written constitution is not +necessary to prove the connection between a subordinate and superior +ecclesiastical body; but it will be inferred from the circumstances of the +case.(164) The superior may dissolve or reorganize an inferior body as a +congregation.(165) In fact the superior authority, in religious matters, +is plenary, excepting as limited by the laws of the State and the +constitution of the Church.(166) The decisions of the ecclesiastical +tribunals in all cases on doctrine, order, and discipline, are conclusive +in the state courts.(167) + + + + + +CHAPTER VIII. INFERIOR AUTHORITY + + +*89.* _Priesthood_, _Discipline_.--The inferior authority in the Church may +be said to be in the priesthood, whose rights and duties are fixed by the +canon law, but who are still further subject to the reasonable diocesan +rules made by the bishop. The disciplinary relation of a priest to his +bishop is substantially the same as that of a captain to his colonel, and +implicit obedience in accordance with the discipline of the Church may be +strictly enforced by the bishop in so far as it relates to ecclesiastical +matters, including doctrine and discipline, in which the priest can not +resort to the courts of the State, but must submit to the tribunals of the +church.(168) + +*90.* _Congregation, Insubordinate, Discipline._--The male members of a +congregation are invested with no visitorial or controling power, but only +such authority as is given under the laws of incorporation.(169) Where an +inferior organization, as a congregation, refuses to receive a clergyman +appointed by the bishop, it is an act of insubordination to the +ecclesiastical authority of the Church and in violation of its discipline, +which authorizes the issuing of a peremptory mandamus commanding them to +admit the clergyman.(170) + +*91.* _Pastor, Parish, Relation._--When a clergyman's connection with a +church had been duly dissolved, he ceased to be pastor of the church and +an arrangement with the parish to retain his relation as pastor of such +church was nugatory and void.(171) + +*92.* _Clergymen, Citizens._--Clergymen residing in an incorporated town +are not exempt from the performance of any duties required of citizens, +unless such exemption is given by statute.(172) + +*93.* _Doctrine and Discipline, Authority._--In all matters concerning +doctrine and discipline of the Church, the inferior authority, such as +ministers, priests, and deacons, as well as the congregation, must submit +to the decision of the higher authority, whether bishop, synod, or +council.(173) + +*94.* _Sect, Suit, Property._--A number of people formed a congregation and +became incorporated in 1810, the members being mostly of Presbyterian +extraction. This independent congregation bought and paid for property, +the title vesting in the corporation. In 1811 the congregation passed +resolutions unanimously that it "would be imprudent and unscriptural" to +establish a new religious sect, and voted to join the First Reformed Dutch +Church, which had an organization of inferior and superior authority. The +congregation was received into and became a part of the general +organization, and remained so until 1860, when a majority of the +congregation voted to employ a Methodist minister, and when his name was +submitted to the superior authority, the "classis," he was rejected as not +belonging to the church. Then by a majority vote, the congregation seceded +and assumed its first name, and thereafter brought suit for the church +property. The court held that by joining the First Reformed Dutch Church, +the title of the property vested in the congregation of that church as +represented by its corporation, and that when the majority seceded and +left the church, they had no right nor title to any of the property. And +the court laid down the general rule that a majority of a church +congregation may direct and control any church matters consistently with +the particular and general laws of the organization or denomination to +which it belongs, but not in violation of them.(174) + +*95.* _Priest, Salary._--The fact that a bishop who holds the title to all +the diocesan property in his own name in trust appoints a priest to the +parish or as chaplain to a hospital, does not give the priest a right of +action against the bishop personally for his salary. The relation of +bishop and priest is not that of employer and employe, but is that of +ecclesiastical superior and inferior.(175) + +*96.* _Curate, Induction, Rector._--The _jus patronatus_ of the Spanish law +has been abrogated in Louisiana. The wardens of the church can not compel +a bishop to institute a curate of their appointment, nor is he in any +sense subordinate in his clerical functions to the wardens of any church +within his diocese.(176) In the absence of a positive rule of the +ecclesiastical body, no ceremony of induction is necessary for the rector +of a parish.(177) A clergyman appointed "permanently" to a rectorship +holds it for an indefinite period during the pleasure of the contracting +parties, and either of the contracting parties may give the other notice +of termination, and with the concurrence of the higher ecclesiastical +authority of the diocese, a change may be made.(178) It is doubtful, +however, whether in most States a permanent appointment would not be +construed as a contract for life, determinable only for good cause.(179) + +*97.* _Controversy, Tribunal, Decision._--When the clergyman and his +parishioners submit a controversy to an ecclesiastical tribunal, the +decision, if not impeached for good cause, is justification in the party +conforming to it.(180) And a minister who submits to a church tribunal and +is ousted after fair hearing and trial, can not obtain a writ of mandamus +from the civil court to compel his reinstatement.(181) Also, after a +minister has been dismissed in due manner by the tribunal of his +denomination, the civil court will enjoin him from usurping his +office.(182) + +*98.* _Priest, Dwelling, Servant._--A Catholic priest in charge of a +congregation at the will of the bishop and occupying a dwelling-house +belonging to the church, is a servant and not a tenant, and his right to +occupancy ceases with his services.(183) The law is different with regard +to a Methodist minister who is in charge of his parish by an annual +conference and can not be ejected by the congregation or bishop until the +next conference, as he has possession of the church property without +superior authority.(184) + +*99.* _Injunction, Bishop, Priest, Trial._--On application for an +injunction to restrain the bishop from passing a sentence against a +priest, the only ground on which a court can exercise jurisdiction is that +the threatened action of the bishop will affect the civil rights of the +priest.(185) A bishop can not remove a priest without an accusation, +hearing, or trial, and forbid him to exercise any priestly function where +such removal would cut off the priest's income and destroy his means of +living in his vocation.(186) However, in the same case it was held that a +complaint stating that the bishop failed and neglected to assign the +plaintiff to the exercise of his office of priest in said diocese to the +plaintiff's damage, etc., failed to show that any right of property or +civil right was involved and the priest was non-suited, while in the +former case an injunction was issued against the bishop.(187) + +*100.* _Confession, Privacy, Authority._--A Catholic priest, although about +to administer an office of his religion to a sick person at the latter's +request, has no legal authority, by virtue of his priestly character, to +forcibly remove from the room a person lawfully there.(188) + +*101.* _Debts, Permission, Presumed._--Notwithstanding a rule or +ecclesiastical law of the church that a pastor shall not contract debts in +the name or for the sake of the church without the written permission of +the bishop, such written permission is not evidence that debts contracted +under it are the legal debts of the bishop. The authority which bishops +delegate to priests is under the ecclesiastical law and prima facie +ecclesiastical authority, and must be presumed to be so in the absence of +all evidence to the contrary.(189) + +*102.* _Official Acts, Subscriptions._--The official acts of a minister +coming in question incidentally, unless contrary to the statute, are as +valid as the official acts of any other officer.(190) A clergyman who was +engaged to conduct dedication services and was requested by the officers +of the local corporation to solicit subscriptions for paying off the +indebtedness of the church, but was not appointed agent to receive such +subscriptions, had no authority to accept a subscription for the +corporation.(191) + +*103.* _Exemptions, Clergy._--The exemptions given ministers by the +statutes of some States are liberally construed.(192) Without any +statutory exemption, the clergy are liable for all duties required of +other citizens.(193) + +*104.* _Minister, Contributions, Deposed._--No religious teacher or +minister can be enjoined from receiving voluntary contributions, although +he has been deposed by some ecclesiastical tribunal.(194) + +*105.* _Fees, Usages, Excess._--The fees of a priest of the Catholic Church +are regulated by the laws and usages of that Church, and where in this +country the pew rent and collections go for the support of the priest and +the current church expenses, a priest is not accountable for the excess of +such collections over these expenditures.(195) + +*106.* _Salary, Fees._--Under the act of March, 1814, incorporating a +congregation, the congregation, being the legal owners and temporal +administrators of the property which it was authorized to hold, had the +exclusive power to fix the salary of the parish priest or the tariff of +fees for marriages, burial, etc. No such power could be exercised under +that act by the Pope or any bishop.(196) + +*107.* _Clergyman, Salary._--Where a clergyman agreed with a congregation +that the salary should be what could be raised by subscription, the +congregation was bound to use due diligence in procuring subscriptions, +and as it did so, that was all that the clergyman could recover.(197) + +*108.* _Curate, Services._--In an action by a curate against a religious +corporation for personal services, the court will not inquire into the +spiritual relations existing between the parties, but will examine their +legal rights only.(198) + +*109.* _Minister, Dismissal, Money Advanced._--After a parish has voted to +dismiss the minister, it is not competent to prove irregular conduct or +immorality in answer to his claim for salary, without alleging it in the +vote of dismissal.(199) In Illinois it was held that a priest who advanced +money from his private resources for improving church property, had an +equitable lien upon the property for all the money advanced, with legal +interest.(200) But in Pennsylvania, where a priest under the direction of +the bishop built a church in his parish for mission purposes, and in doing +so expended some of his own money, it was held that in the absence of +proof of any rule or custom of the Catholic Church making the payment of +such expenses obligatory on the parish, that he could not recover the +money so expended from his congregation.(201) + + + + + +CHAPTER IX. MEMBERSHIP + + +*110.* _Business, Religious Membership._--Unless there is some other law or +rule to the contrary, the male members of the congregation over twenty-one +years of age constitute the business membership of a religious +society.(202) But the question of membership of religious societies or +congregations is left to be determined by the rules of the religious +denomination to which they belong.(203) And where a condition of +membership is that the person must contribute to the support of the church +and be a communicant, if he is not a communicant he is not entitled to +vote.(204) + +*111.* _Regular, Doctrines, Support._--The ones who adhere and submit to +the regular order and doctrines of the church, although a minority, +constitute the true congregation.(205) At least two things must concur to +qualify a person as a voter: first, stated attendance at divine worship in +the congregation; and, second, contribution to the support of the +church.(206) The list of members kept by the clerk or secretary of the +congregation is evidence of membership.(207) A person who denies any part +of the system of theology received and taught by the denomination is not a +member of the church.(208) + +*112.* _Factions, Authority._--Where two factions of a church, each +claiming to be the church, try members of the other faction, a court may +determine which of the factions is the authorized authority or that the +action taken by either or both of them is nugatory for want of +authority.(209) + +*113.* _Faith, Burial._--Whether a person died in the faith of the Roman +Catholic Church so as to be entitled to burial in its cemetery, is not a +question within the jurisdiction of civil courts, but must be decided by +the ecclesiastical authorities.(210) + +*114.* _Rules, Membership._--Every denomination has the right to prescribe +by rules, its constitution, or its by-laws, the conditions of membership; +and any one who will not subscribe to and practise the doctrines of the +denomination is not a member.(211) + +*115.* _Minor._--Where the legal members of a society that is incorporated +consist of male members of the church of full age, when minor sons become +of age, they become legal members of the corporation, provided they remain +in the church.(212) + +*116.* _Officers, Non-Members._--It has been held that a person may be an +officer or member of the church corporation or its temporal concerns +without being a member of the denomination.(213) + +*117.* _Debts, Unincorporated Parish._--In Connecticut members of an +ecclesiastical society formed by voluntary association under the statutes +of the State are not individually liable for the debts of such +society.(214) But where there is no statute on the subject, the members of +an unincorporated parish are liable for lawful debts contracted or +ratified by them, and their property may be levied on for such debts +incurred or judgments rendered while they are members of the society.(215) +The members of an unincorporated parish may be sued to recover the salary +of a deceased pastor up to the time of his death.(216) + +*118.* _Execution, Property._--While an execution against a territorial +parish may be levied on the property of a member of the parish, it can not +be levied on property of a person who ceased to be a member before the +levy.(217) + +*119.* _Incorporated, Subscriptions._--The members of an incorporated poll +parish are not individually liable on a judgment and execution against the +corporation, excepting on the unpaid subscriptions.(218) + +*120.* _Expelled, Merits._--Mandamus can not be resorted to to restore a +member regularly expelled from his church, as a court will not inquire +into the merits of the case.(219) + +*121.* _Lay Members, Appointed._--Where the statute provides that two lay +members of the corporation of a Catholic parish shall be appointed +annually "by the committee of the congregation," the members of the +congregation have no right to elect said two members, and those appointed +in the proper manner are lawful officers.(220) + + + + + +CHAPTER X. HERESY AND SECESSION + + +*122.* _Mother Church, Control._--A majority of the members of a +congregation can not by their vote leave the church and transfer the +property of the congregation to another church so long as any portion of +the congregation remains faithful to the mother church of which such +congregation forms a part. Such minority shall retain control of the +property.(221) + +*123.* _Seceders, Funds._--Nor can seceders from a religious denomination +retain the funds in their hands as trustees on the ground that they were +members of the society when the funds accrued.(222) The title to church +property in a divided congregation is in that part of the congregation +which is acting in harmony with its own law; and the ecclesiastical laws +and principles which were accepted among them before the dispute began are +the standards for determining which party is right.(223) + +*124.* _Society, Foreign Language, Independent._--The formation of a +society distinct from the rest of the congregation for the purpose of +instruction in a portion of the doctrine of the same church in a foreign +language is not a separation from the congregation, although it has its +own minister and officers.(224) Where an independent congregation of one +denomination votes unanimously to go over to another denomination, and the +title to the church property is in the parish corporation, the seceders +take with them the church property.(225) + +*125.* _Subordinate, Incorporated._--A religious society subordinate to +church judicatures, which declares itself independent and becomes +incorporated under the general law of the state and subsequently purchases +land and takes title in the name of the corporation, holds such land +independently of such church judicatures.(226) + +*126.* _"__Church,__"__ Seceders, Debt._--Where a religious society amended +its constitution as provided therein, those who adhered to the amended +constitution constituted the "church," and those who refused to do so were +seceders.(227) After seceding, a member of a parish is liable for a debt +existing at the time of his secession.(228) + +*127.* _Bible, Constitution, Withdrawal._--A religious organization that +takes the Bible as its constitution can not declare a member a seceder who +interprets it contrary to the Augsburg Confession of the +denomination.(229) What amounts to a voluntary withdrawal of members from +a religious association, is a question of law.(230) + +*128.* _Majority, Obligation._--The fact that a majority of the members of +a religious corporation secede therefrom by a vote, does not affect its +obligation entered into prior thereto.(231) Two factions of a church +separating and keeping up different organizations may both still retain +their membership in the denomination.(232) + +*129.* _Division, Funds._--Where there is a division in a denomination by +the secession of a part of the members from the mother church, the +Legislature has no authority to divide the funds and give a part to the +seceding division.(233) + +*130.* _Methodist, Slaveholding, Non-Slaveholding, Quarrel, Schism, +Secession._--The division of the Methodist church into distinct +organizations of slaveholding and non-slaveholding States, was not a +secession and neither division lost its interest in the common +property.(234) A quarrel in a congregation growing out of an illegal +election followed by the majority excluding the minority from the church, +is not a schism, and is no ground for a division of the church +property.(235) The secession of a whole congregation does not carry with +it the church property; and those who are left and adhere to the mother +church retain control of the property.(236) When the seceders from one +church join another, they forfeit all claim to any interest held by the +former and lose identity with it.(237) + + + + + +CHAPTER XI. EXCOMMUNICATION + + +*131.* _Definitions, Minor._--Excommunication, as construed in law, is the +official announcement by the superior authority of the termination of +membership in a religious body and the forfeiture of spiritual privileges +of the church. It is one of the methods of discipline in the nature of +expulsion from membership in a fraternity, and the fact of expulsion from +a church is conclusive proof that the person expelled is not a member of +such church. Whether the excommunication was wrong or not can not be +examined into in the courts of the State, and such expelled member can not +maintain a suit in relation to church property nor vote for trustees.(238) + +*132.* _Major Excommunication._--As excommunication _non tolerati_ affects +the rights of citizenship, it is not lawful in England nor the United +States. To say that A. has been excommunicated in any form, if untrue, is +slander.(239) + +*133.* _Vote, Sentence._--When a vote of excommunication from a church has +been passed in the Congregational church and the offender thereby declared +no longer a member, the sentence may be promulgated by being read in the +presence of the congregation by the pastor.(240) + +*134.* _Trustees, Disqualified._--The trustees of a church who have been +excommunicated are not thereby disqualified in law to act as +trustees.(241) + +*135.* _Devise, Void._--A parent may leave money to a child payable in +yearly instalments on condition that said child shall continue to be a +member of a particular church and attend the regular meetings thereof, and +in case he fail so to do that the bequest be thereupon paid to a +missionary society. Such a devise is not contrary to the constitution of +the State of Wisconsin and is not void for any other reason.(242) + +*136.* _Fraternity, Excommunicated, Bequest._--Where a church member was +also a member of an insurance fraternity connected with his church, the +constitution of which required that every member of the fraternity should +be and remain a practical Roman Catholic, when he was excommunicated from +membership in the church he thereby forfeited his benefit certificate in +such fraternity.(243) Also, a condition that a bequest shall be forfeited +if the legatee should not marry a Protestant wife, the daughter of +Protestant parents who have always been Protestants, was held to be valid +and not an infringement of any constitutional right.(244) + +*137.* _Action, Expulsion._--An action can not be maintained against the +parish corporation for expulsion from the church.(245) + +*138.* _Forfeiture of Membership_.--Any member may forfeit his membership +in a church.(246) + +*139.* _Insubordination, Expulsion, Hearing._--The authorities in the +church, under its rules and discipline, have a right to exclude members in +the church, for insubordination.(247) If the church has no rules as to +expulsion of members, the common law prevails, and a member can not be +expelled without due notice and fair hearing.(248) + +*140.* _Injunction, Mandamus, Sepulture._--An injunction will not be +granted to prevent the expulsion of a member contrary to the charter and +by-laws of the denomination; but if a member be expelled without warrant +of law, he has his remedy by mandamus for reinstatement.(249) A person who +has been expelled can not maintain an action for restoration in order to +enjoy the right of sepulture, as it is premature.(250) + +*141.* _Expulsion, Illegal._--The attempt of a minority of a church to +expel the majority of the members and turn over the property to another +denomination is illegal. However, the same would be true if it were done +by the majority.(251) + +*142.* _Freedom, Faith, Doctrine._--The constitution in declaring the +freedom of all men to worship God according to the dictates of their own +consciences, does not give a church member the right to repudiate the +faith and doctrine on which the church was founded, and at the same time +to insist on his right to exercise and enjoy the benefits and privileges +of a member of such church.(252) Every person joining a church, impliedly, +if not expressly, agrees to conform to its rules and to submit to its +authority and discipline.(253) A person who has been expelled from a +religious society can not maintain an action for services rendered the +society while he was a member.(254) + + + + + +CHAPTER XII. ELECTIONS + + +*143.* _Time, Place, Void._--Where a religious society that is incorporated +holds an election for trustees, which is held at the wrong time or place, +the election is void.(255) + +*144.* _Voting, Communicants, Attendance._--A by-law of a church that +prohibited any person whose pew rent was in arrears more than two years +from voting at a church meeting, is valid and reasonable.(256) Where a +charter of a religious society allowed only members being communicants to +vote after they had attained the age of eighteen years, to entitle a +member of the congregation to vote it was necessary that he should have +taken the sacraments after the age of eighteen years.(257) Where the right +to vote was limited to members who contributed not less than ten shillings +annually toward the support of the church, those who were challenged for +want of complying with the rule can not do so after being challenged and +then vote.(258) Stated attendance at divine worship in the church, +congregation, or society, and contribution to the support of such church, +may be made the tests of the right of a person to be a voter at an +election. The attendance of a wife or children of the family is not +sufficient to confer the right to vote on the husband or father.(259) + +*145.* _Voters, Poll List._--Parol evidence is admissible to prove the +number of persons entitled to vote in a church society, notwithstanding +that there is a register of names of the stated hearers in such church +kept by the clerk of the trustees. + +*146.* _Notice, Quorum, Majority, Strangers._--It is not necessary that a +majority of the members of a religious society be present to constitute a +corporate meeting. Those present at a regularly called meeting of which +due notice has been given to all the members, constitute a quorum; and, in +the absence of a rule to the contrary, a majority of the votes cast +carries any question.(260) The presence of strangers, unless they vote, +will not vitiate the proceedings. If they should vote, unless their votes +determine the election, it will not be void.(261) The casting of a few +illegal votes that would not change the result of the election does not +make it void.(262) + +*147.* _Challenge, Ground._--The right of a person to vote at any meeting +may be challenged. The proper time to challenge a voter is when he offers +his vote. After his vote has been received it can not be thrown out on the +ground that he was disqualified.(263) A church election for which due +notice has been given, that has been fairly conducted, and all the +requirements of the statute or rules of the church complied with, is +conclusive.(264) Without due notice, all proceedings are void.(265) + +*148.* _By-Laws, Usage._--If there is no law of a religious society +determining the mode of conducting an election, the corporation may +provide by-laws therefor; and if the corporation should fail to make such +by-laws, a long established usage will govern.(266) Also, if the time an +election is to be held is provided for, but the manner of conducting it is +not, the meeting may be conducted according to established usage.(267) + +*149.* _Ballot, Hand Vote._--The vote of a religious society at an annual +meeting for the election of officers that the officers shall always be +chosen by ballot, does not vitiate an election of officers by hand vote at +a subsequent annual meeting. But a provision in the constitution or +by-laws requiring a ballot must be complied with.(268) + +*150.* _Hold Over, Successors._--When the election of the new trustees is +invalid, the old trustees hold over until there will have been a valid +election of their successors.(269) But where a board that was illegally +elected employed a minister who had no notice of such illegality, he was +entitled to his compensation according to the contract.(270) + +*151.* _Majority, Votes Cast._--Where the majority of a congregation +protested against the proposed candidate, but failed to vote for any one, +such candidate who received the greatest number of votes cast, was +lawfully elected.(271) + +*152.* _By-Law, Tickets._--When a by-law provides that "if besides the +names there are other things upon the tickets, such tickets are not to be +counted," a ballot having an engraved eagle on it should be rejected.(272) +However, in a very recent case under a statute that specifically provided +what should be printed on the general election ballot, and in addition +thereto the Union Labor label was printed thereon, the court held that the +statute should be strictly construed in favor of the voter and that the +ticket should be counted.(273) + + + + + +CHAPTER XIII. OFFICERS + + +*153.* _Charter, By-Laws._--The articles of organization or the charter +which is the constitution of the corporation may provide who may be +officers of a religious society and limit their authority. The +constitution usually gives further authority to make by-laws which are +binding on the officers as well as on the members.(274) + +*154.* _Unincorporated Church, Incorporated._--The officers of an +unincorporated church can only be elected by the members of the church, +unless there is some law of the State or rule of the church that provides +for appointing them. In an incorporated congregation, the charter and +by-laws of the corporation determine whether the officers shall be elected +or appointed.(275) + +*155.* _Trustees, Control._--A statute passed in 1813 providing that a +certificate of incorporation by the bishop, vicar-general, pastor of the +church, and two others selected by them and their successors shall be a +body corporate, does not constitute the trustees the corporation in place +of the congregation so as to make the acts of a majority of the trustees +binding on the corporation in the absence of proof of other +authority.(276) Under the statutes of Louisiana providing for the +incorporation of congregations for the purpose of administration and +revenues, it was held that the corporation had full control and was +responsible to the congregation alone and could not be controled by the +clergy. The congregation had the right to elect others in the places of +those amoved by reason of their misuse or abuse of their powers.(277) And +in Massachusetts, under the law for incorporating Catholic parishes, no +one but the trustees have any power.(278) + +*156.* _Membership, Office._--Where church membership is necessary to hold +office in the church corporation, it is a binding condition +precedent.(279) An officer who withdraws or is expelled from a religious +organization thereby terminates his office.(280) + +*157.* _Certificate of Election._--A certificate of election of officers is +prima facie evidence thereof, but the truth may be shown _aliunde_ and a +wrong certificate may be cancelled by a judgment of a competent court on a +writ of _quo warranto_ or proceeding under a statute of the State. Also, +if the certificate does not conform to the law, it is insufficient.(281) + +*158.* _Term, Successors, Contest._--Where there is no term of office +fixed, the presumption is that an officer continues as such until proof to +the contrary is established,(282) or until his successor shall have been +elected and shall have qualified.(283) Also, the officers elected for a +certain term can not be amoved by electing new officers before the end of +the term.(284) When officers or committees have been elected "for the +ensuing year," they shall hold office until superseded by their duly +elected successors. Where two sets of officers were elected at a meeting +of a religious corporation and the set that was elected according to the +charter continued in office by appointment thereafter, it was too late for +the irregularly elected officers to make a contest for the offices after +the term for which they had been elected had expired.(285) + +*159.* _By-Laws, Preside._--At an election of trustees under by-laws that +provide that certain officers shall preside, if there are no such officers +members may be selected to preside in their places.(286) + +*160.* _Note, Overdraft, Interest._--The president and secretary of a +church corporation have no authority to make a promissory note unless +authorized by the board of trustees.(287) Neither has the treasurer +authority to make an overdraft on a bank with the action of the +trustees.(288) The trustees of a parish, however, may make a note binding +the congregation for the payment of the money used in building a +church.(289) But when the trustees have an interest in the transaction, +adverse to the congregation, they are disqualified from acting.(290) When +trustees had claims against the congregation which they included with +other claims that third parties had against the church, they could not put +them in a judgment note so as to get a lien upon the church property. When +officers do not bind the congregation, they usually bind themselves.(291) +The trustees of an unincorporated church can not bind it beyond the +expressed powers granted by the members.(292) + +*161.* _Board, Control._--When the laws of the organization give control of +matters to the board of trustees, the majority of the members of the +church can not control the action of the trustees contrary to the usages +and regulations of the church.(293) + +*162.* _Treasurer, Accepting a Draft._--A parish treasurer has no authority +under any condition to bind the corporation by accepting a draft in favor +of a third person. A treasurer elected for the purpose of receiving and +investing funds in his individual name, holds such funds as trustee for +the church and is subject as such trustee to a court of equity. Persons +claiming to be trustees of a church but never getting possession of their +offices or the property of the church, can not maintain an action against +other persons who are in possession and have been duly elected.(294) + +*163.* _Note, Trustees._--A church will not be bound by a note which was +executed by two of its trustees and sent around to other trustees to sign +it, where there was no vote of the board of trustees at an authorized +meeting to borrow or to execute such note.(295) A meeting of a board must +be called as required by law or the by-laws of the organization, and in +the absence of any such all members must be notified a reasonable time +before the time fixed for holding the meeting. However, if all the +trustees are present and agree to hold a meeting it is valid; but it would +be well to put such consent in writing and have all the members sign +it.(296) + +*164.* _Money, Powers._--The treasurer of a congregation has no right to +return to members moving out of the parish a part of the money paid for +the church by them.(297) Officers of a corporation have no powers only +those conferred upon them by the charter and by-laws of the corporation or +by a majority vote of a duly called meeting of the congregation.(298) When +the trustees of a church are authorized to execute contracts for the +church, they should act as a body or delegate the power to one of their +number or ratify the acts of one of their number.(299) The individual +disjointed action of trustees of a religious society, at various times and +places, although assented to by a majority, is not the action of the +board, and is not binding on the society. To make the action of the board +of trustees binding, they must duly meet and by a vote determine their +action.(300) + +*165.* _De Facto Officers._--The acts of _de facto_ officers can not +usually be questioned in a collateral proceeding, such as to set aside a +conveyance, when the merits of the question do not involve the +election.(301) Being elected does not alone make a person a _de facto_ +officer; but he must also be acting in the particular office to which he +claims to have been elected.(302) But one who has entered into a contract +with the officers of a congregation is estopped from denying their +authority to make such contract.(303) + +*166.* _Trustees, Thanks, Charge._--Where trustees have taken care of funds +without charge, the only entry kept being a vote of thanks from time to +time, they could not afterward charge a commission on the moneys handled +by them for such services.(304) + +*167.* _Discretion, Excommunication._--A court has no authority to control +the exercise of the judgment or discretion of the officers of a church in +the management of its funds so long as they do not violate its +constitution or by-laws.(305) Excommunication does not always remove an +officer of a church corporation.(306) The legal rights of a bishop in +regard to the temporalities of a church where they are not prescribed by +civil law, must rest, if at all, upon the ecclesiastical law, which must +be determined by evidence.(307) + +*168.* _Key, Possession, Right._--Having the key of a church, is prima +facie evidence of possession, but the right of possession is a matter of +proof.(308) + +*169.* _Church, Bishop, Debts, Salary of a Priest._--Where a church is not +itself liable because it is not incorporated, the Roman Catholic bishop of +the diocese is not personally liable for moneys borrowed by the pastors of +such church in the name of the church, which were partly invested in real +estate which was put in the bishop's name in the usual manner, although +the bishop's permission was necessary before borrowing the money, and +notwithstanding that the bishop raised some of the money to pay some of +the debts and the mortgage on the real estate of the church on his +personal security, and he received part of the borrowed funds from a dying +pastor and handed it over to his successor.(309) Also, a bishop is not +personally liable for the salary of a priest whom he engages. They are +fellow servants working for the Church and not in the relation of employer +and employee any more than are a general and captain in the same +army.(310) + +*170.* _Note, Building Committee._--In an action on a note given by the +pastor of a church for money borrowed to pay bills for the erection of the +church building, in which the plaintiff sought to charge the building +committee, and it appeared from the plaintiff's testimony that the title +to the property was in the bishop and the committee did not handle any of +the funds, but was a shifting body to whom the pastor only went for advice +and consultation, it was held that the plaintiff could not recover.(311) + +*171.* _Fraud, Trust._--Where a "prophet" induced members of his +organization, by his fraud and deceit, to convey to him all their property +in discharge of a religious duty and then refused to account to them, the +court declared the trust closed and divided the estate among the members +in proportion to the money, property, and labor contributed by each of +them.(312) + +*172.* _Superioress, Money._--A person who contributed money for the +purpose of repairing a convent, the money being turned over to the +superioress and the convent not being incorporated, upon the project being +abandoned subsequently a personal judgment could not be obtained against +the superioress for the money contributed.(313) + +*173.* _Loan, Priest._--If a man lends money to a priest for the purpose of +paying a note against the congregation left at the bank for collection, he +can recover the money so paid from the congregation.(314) + +*174.* _Warden, Wages, Sexton._--A church warden who was hired by the +trustees of a church can not collect his wages by an action against the +priest of the parish.(315) A church accepting the services of a sexton is +liable to him therefor, whether the by-laws were observed in employing him +or not; nor will the fact that any party (as in this case the Ladies of +the Altar Society) agreed to contribute to his annual salary, defeat his +recovery of the whole from the church employing him.(316) + +*175.* _Sewing Circle, Money._--A church may maintain an action against a +sewing circle to require it to pay over money collected for the benefit of +the church.(317) + + + + + +CHAPTER XIV. MEETINGS + + +*176.* _Business, Notice, Meeting._--Where, in the transaction of the local +business of a religious society, whether incorporated or not, meetings of +the members shall become necessary, in order to make such meetings legal +due notice thereof should be given to every member. The notice should +specify the exact time and place where the meeting will be held, and no +change can be made except at such time and place. Unless some other place +is specified, the parish church is the proper place for holding meetings. +If the church should be locked and the key can not be found, a meeting +should be held at the door or at the nearest practical place to the church +where all the members may assemble, and then by a majority vote they may +adjourn to any convenient near place accessible to all the members.(318) + +*177.* _Acts, Void, Lawful, Clerk._--The acts of a majority of the members +of a corporation, unless done according to law and in conformity with the +charter and by-laws of the corporation, are absolutely null and void.(319) +The only lawful manner by which a congregation can express itself, is by a +meeting regularly called and held upon due notice.(320) The notice of a +meeting should be authorized by the trustees or other authority of the +church, and given to all the members. The clerk of the board of trustees, +unless authorized to do so, has no authority to sign the name of the +members of the board to a notice, and a meeting called in that way is +illegal.(321) + +*178.* _Special Meeting, Notice._--When a meeting is special, the notice +must state for what purpose the meeting is called. If it fails to do so it +is void, and unless all the members are present and consent to the holding +of the meeting, all business transacted is illegal and void.(322) Notice +of a special meeting that states one specific purpose for which it is +called, and then states "to transact any other business that may legally +come before the meeting," is not good for any purpose except the one +specified.(323) + +*179.* _Meeting, Consent._--A valid meeting can not be held by a +corporation, unless notice has been given in conformity with the laws and +rules and regulations of the corporation or the consent of every person +who is entitled to be present at the holding of such meeting. In the +latter case the consent should be in writing and signed by all the +members.(324) However, a person who attends a meeting and takes part in it +without objection, is estopped from raising the question of notice.(325) + +*180.* _Notice, Principal Service, Custom._--When a rule of a church +required notice of a meeting to be given at the principal service, a +notice given at an earlier service only, was void.(326) But where the +ordinances of a church specified that the election of officers should be +at least six days before the end of their term, and it became the custom +of the church to hold the election on a movable holiday which sometimes +was less than six days, the election was held valid.(327) + +*181.* _Adjournment._--Where a meeting was noticed for one day and held on +a different day without notice of adjournment, all acts done were void and +the officers elected were neither _de jure_ nor _de facto_ officers.(328) + +*182.* _Proof of the Notice._--The proper proof of the notice would be the +return of the officer serving the notice, in some States; and in others an +affidavit of the person who served the notice. The proof of the services +of a summons would be sufficient unless there is some other law or rule to +the contrary.(329) + +*183.* _Presiding Officer._--When the laws of the organization provide who +shall preside at a meeting, but the minister contrary to such laws and +against objections presided over the majority of the congregation, and the +minority was presided over by the proper person, and both elected +officers, the officers elected by the minority were the lawful ones.(330) +However, where a meeting is presided over without objection by a member +instead of the proper officer, the acts of the body are lawful.(331) + +*184.* _Voters, Rules._--Unless the laws of the State otherwise provide, +every religious organization has the right to determine who shall vote at +its meetings and elections. If those provisions are reasonable, they are +lawful. Under such provisions it has been repeatedly held that where there +are rules requiring annual subscriptions to the church,(332) only those +who rented and paid for pews, or those who paid a certain annual tax, or +those who went to communion, were entitled to vote.(333) And where there +was no rule, it was held that one who has not contributed to the +church(334) and persons who attended church only occasionally and +contributed only when they attended, were not qualified voters.(335) In +the last case it was stated that a qualified voter is one who has attended +regularly during the year and has contributed to the support of the +church. + +*185.* _Quorum, Majority._--A quorum of a congregation usually consists of +those present at a duly called regular meeting, and a majority of those +present is sufficient to carry questions, unless by rule or law otherwise +provided.(336) But where there is a definite body in a corporation which +has established no other rule, a majority of the members of the +corporation constitute a quorum.(337) Where the minutes of the clerk +stated that upon due notice the members of the corporation met, a quorum +is presumed.(338) + +*186.* _Votes, Challenge, Inspectors, Casting Vote._--The reception of +illegal votes does not invalidate an election unless they change the +result.(339) If the presiding officer refuses to allow a qualified voter +to vote, the right may be enforced through civil courts.(340) When votes +have been received without challenge, it is then too late to raise the +objection that the persons have no right to vote.(341) It is the duty of +the inspectors to determine the qualifications of an elector at the time +that he offers to vote, and before he votes; and if they decide in the +exercise of their judgment, without malice or improper motives, the +regularity of the election can not be questioned.(342) When a rule allows +the presiding officer to vote and another rule states that he shall have +the casting vote in case of a tie vote, he still had the right to cast the +decisive vote.(343) Illegal voting in a religious society probably is not +an indictable offense, but it is a disorderly act.(344) + +*187.* _Written Notice, Prayer Meeting._--Where a five days' written notice +is required to hold church meetings, an oral notice given on Sunday +evening at the prayer meeting is not sufficient for a meeting on the +following Wednesday. But a vote taken on Sunday to hire the minister and +fix his salary, is not void.(345) Churches and benefit societies, such as +insurance fraternities, being charitable organizations, may do business +concerning such association on Sunday.(346) + +*188.* _Expulsion, Damages._--A man who has been wrongfully expelled from a +temperance society for religious reasons may recover damages +therefor.(347) + + + + + +CHAPTER XV. CHURCH RECORDS + + +*189.* _Evidence, Entries, Minutes._--The record of the proceedings of a +religious society is evidence as to its doings, both in its own tribunals +and the courts of the State. Such record consists of entries required to +be made by the laws or rules of the society, the laws of the State, and +the minutes adopted by the society. Therefore, it is of the greatest +importance that it be kept with great exactness, omitting nothing that is +important.(348) Also, the minutes of all the meetings should be correct +before being duly adopted. All erasures and interlineations should be +certified by the clerk and then signed by him. + +*190.* _Uniformity._--Every entry required to be kept by the laws of the +State as well as the rules of the Church, should be kept as to births, +marriages, and death. Every diocese should have uniform record books in +all parishes and every pastor should keep blanks printed in the form of a +page of the record book, to issue certificates when required. + +*191.* _Marriage, Death, Baptism, Birth, Church Records._--The church +records duly kept in accordance with the discipline of the church, are +admissible in evidence to prove marriage, death, and baptism. Where the +record is incomplete, as giving the date of baptism only, it is not +admissible in proof of date of birth. But if it gives the date of birth, +it is _prima facie_ proof thereof.(349) + +*192.* _Certified Copies._--Under statutes, certified copies of the record +made by the custodian thereof are admissible in evidence in any case where +the original would be admissible. Also, one who had compared a copy with +the original record may testify to the same. The rule, as given, +substantially prevails under statutes in the following States: Alabama, +Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, +Minnesota, Missouri, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin; +and also, in Ontario, Manitoba, and the Dominion of Canada. + +*193.* _Rule of Admissibility._--A certified copy of the record of a +baptism taken from a church register by the parish priest, when admissible +at the place where such record is kept, as in Ireland, is admissible to +prove the same fact in the State of Missouri.(350) + +*194.* _Proper Record._--A book kept by a minister, which contained a +regular statement in proper form of the admission of members, choice of +officers, and transaction of business of the church, which was the only +book kept by the parish, is the proper record of the church.(351) + +*195.* _Name, Record._--The author would like to emphasize the importance +of correct records. Frequently we find no Christian name given in the +records of birth, which practically makes the record worthless. When a +child is born it is entitled to a name, immediately, which should be given +and be correct. At least the first Christian name should be correct; a +mistake in a middle name is not material. This is true of deeds and +records of all kinds, but practically of births, deaths, and +marriages.(352) + + + + + +CHAPTER XVI. CHURCH TRIBUNALS + + +*196.* _Jurisdiction, Privileges._--It is usual for every fraternity to +have a tribunal of its own for the trial of members who break its laws or +violate its discipline. Within their jurisdiction, the laws of the State +give such tribunals great privileges and courts show them great respect. +The Freemasons, the Knights of Columbus, etc., and most of the churches, +have such courts.(353) + +*197.* _Trial, Property, Priest._--In most of the States a court will not +interfere with the fair trial of a church tribunal. Neither will the court +entertain a controversy concerning the title or right of possession of +real or personal property excepting at the instance of some person +claiming a right thereto derived from or recognized by the law of the +State or of the United States.(354) But when the bishop has deprived a +subordinate priest of his authority to officiate as such, he may enjoin +the priest from making use of the church property.(355) + +*198.* _Doubt, Legal Rights._--The foregoing rule has some doubt cast on it +in Delaware and Massachusetts. The investigation of a dispute between +members of a church by a committee according to church regulations, +consented to by the parties, in which both take part, can have no effect +on their legal rights. If the State law provides for cases of the kind, it +is superior and must be submitted to. Also, an award or proceeding of a +committee is not evidence for or against either party. However, any +statement made, or admissions of the parties, if not of a recognized +confidential nature, may be given in evidence on the trial in a court of +the State.(356) The judgment of a mutual ecclesiastical council legally +convoked will not bind either party rejecting it.(357) + +*199.* _Bishop, Priest, Redress._--When a bishop removes a priest in the +regular way according to the rules and discipline of his church, the +priest has no redress.(358) Also, when a priest has submitted his case to +the church tribunal according to the discipline of his church, he must +abide by its decision, excepting where his civil rights or property rights +as a citizen are involved, when he may appeal to the laws of the +land.(359) + +*200.* _Trial, Counsel._--The question whether a minister on trial in a +church tribunal is entitled to be heard by counsel or attorneys depends +upon the laws of the church, and it can not be said as a matter of law +that he is entitled to counsel.(360) + +*201.* _Removal, Suspension, Trial._--In the United States under the laws +and discipline of the Catholic Church a priest may be removed from the +charge of a congregation at the pleasure of the bishop, without trial; but +he can not be suspended from his priestly functions without specific +accusation and trial.(361) + +*202.* _Charges, Fair Trial, Hearsay Evidence._--When a clergyman or +officer is to be removed or a member of the congregation is to be +excommunicated, it is necessary to fully state the charges against him and +give him an opportunity for a fair trial according to the laws and rules +of the religious society before rendering final judgment. All the +allegations of the complaint should be made upon positive knowledge of the +complainant or upon evidence that is admissible to prove the case in +court. Rumor or gossip, known as mere hearsay evidence, is not sufficient +to base a charge against the character of any one.(362) + +*203.* _Trial, Testimony, Slander._--A church judgment, where there has +been a full and fair trial or when members submit to the church tribunal, +and the judgment has only been rebuke, censure, suspension, or +excommunication, is usually upheld by the courts; and when the testimony +given on such trial is concerning immoral or scandalous conduct or crime, +if those taking part act in good faith and within the scope of the +authority of the church, they are protected by law and not liable to an +action for damages for libel or slander.(363) + +*204.* _Remedies, Secular Courts._--In cases involving church doctrine and +discipline only, all remedies within the church must be exhausted by a +member before the secular courts will interfere, if they will interfere at +all.(364) + +*205.* _Notice, Waiver._--When the laws of the church provide the tribunal +and procedure, if the person proceeded against avoids the service of the +notice or refuses to submit to the court, the notice of trial required to +be served might thereby be considered waived and the tribunal might +proceed with the trial in the absence of the accused.(365) + +*206.* _Appeal, Decision, Limitation._--The right to appeal from one court +to another of higher jurisdiction is generally recognized.(366) If after +trial in the lower tribunal of the Church, an appeal is taken, the +decision on the appeal is binding upon the parties and also upon the +inferior tribunal.(367) In the Anglican and some other churches, there is +no limitation as to time when offenses against the discipline of the +church may be inquired into.(368) + +The Catholic Church has a limitation as to prescriptive rights, to-wit: +"Three years in case of movable property; ten years in case of a right, or +of immovable property, _inter praesentes_; twenty years in the same case, +_inter absentes_."(369) Also, there are limitations in canonical cases, +varying from one to twenty years.(370) There is no statute of limitation +on lawful debts. + +*207.* _Procedure, Judge, Juror, Witness._--If there are no rules of +procedure prescribed by the church tribunal, the proper practice is to +follow the State courts; as, for example, where the State law forbids an +officer of the court who has an interest in the proceeding to sit as judge +or juror, the same would apply to the church tribunal, it being the common +law of the land. Also, in States where a person who is interested in a +matter is not a competent witness, in the absence of a different rule in +the church, the same rule would apply in the church tribunal.(371) + +*208.* _Catholic Discipline._--A church member has no right to sue any one +in holy orders in the civil court without leave. That is, a layman or +priest should obtain leave of the bishop to sue a priest. In some +countries it is ground for excommunication to violate the rule. This rule +is analogous to the general rule that a sovereign state can not be sued +without its consent.(372) In this country, where there is no +ecclesiastical court recognized in law, leave is rarely asked.(373) + + + + + +CHAPTER XVII. STATE COURTS + + +*209.* _Decision, Ecclesiastical Matter._--The decision of the highest +tribunal of the church on a purely ecclesiastical matter will not be +disturbed by civil courts unless it is in open defiance and express +violation of the constitution of such body.(374) + +*210.* _Right of Property, Civil Rights._--Where there are several church +tribunals one above another, when the highest tribunal having jurisdiction +of the case has decided a question as to the right of property, a civil +court will accept such decision of the church tribunal as conclusive.(375) +The courts give way to the usages and regulations of the church so far as +they are not inconsistent with the constitution and laws of the +State.(376) As far as civil rights are concerned, the statute of +limitations may be pleaded even where those rights are founded upon some +law or rule of the denomination.(377) + +*211.* _Creed, Factions, Property, Management._--The supreme court +exercises no ecclesiastical jurisdiction, but accepts what the highest +ecclesiastical authority in each church promulgates as the faith and +practice of that church, and will not determine for itself what that faith +or creed is in order to establish the rights of respective factions in the +church to the church property. But a majority of a congregation that +secedes from the church and forms a new organization can not claim any of +the property.(378) The civil courts will not interfere with church +management so far as concerns the spiritual discipline of the members, but +where civil rights of property are involved, the courts may determine +them.(379) The civil rights of a religious society or its members are +within the jurisdiction of the State courts.(380) + +*212.* _Trust, Court of Equity._--A conveyance in trust for the use of a +church vests the use in the church and it will be protected by a court of +equity.(381) + +*213.* _Injunction, Closing Church, Paying Money, Disturbances._--A court +of equity will issue an injunction against the trustees of a church from +wrongfully closing it or keeping it closed even against a small +minority.(382) Church property vested in trustees of a religious body is +held under trust and a court of equity has jurisdiction to enforce the +trust.(383) A court of equity may restrain the trustees of a church from +paying money to a duly deposed minister.(384) But a court of equity will +not interfere to quell religious disturbances when no question as to +property or civil rights is involved. The board of trustees of a church +can not remove a priest against the will of the congregation.(385) + +*214.* _Suits, Parties._--Where a number of persons have contributed to the +erection of a church, it is not necessary for all who contribute to join +in an action to restrain a sale of the property for mercantile +purposes.(386) Any member of a church not incorporated may come into a +court of equity in behalf of himself and others and enforce the execution +of a trust in favor of the church.(387) The same rule would apply to a +church where any one in authority is violating the law.(388) If several +congregations of a diocese are interested in litigation, to hold all the +property of the diocese liable for the debt of a parish, each congregation +is entitled to be made a party.(389) + +*215.* _Complaint._--A complaint that the plaintiffs hold one doctrinal +standard and the defendants another is sufficiently definite without +explaining the difference between the two.(390) + +*216.* _Church Tribunal, Courts._--Courts are reluctant to interfere in the +church doctrine or discipline or inquire into the regularity of the +proceedings of the church tribunal. When such tribunal has deposed a +pastor or expelled a member, it is final. However, in contracts, property +rights, and civil rights of a citizen, the courts take jurisdiction. It is +no defense to a pastor's expulsion that there is salary due him.(391) + +*217.* _Unincorporated Congregation, Actions, Interest._--An unincorporated +congregation may be sued on contract in its associate capacity, though no +persons are named as trustees or committeeman.(392) In all actions by or +against a congregation the civil courts will not permit suits to be +brought by complainants who have no interest either legal or equitable in +the temporalities of the church.(393) A suit against a society of Shakers +consisting of indefinite membership with changing additions, withdrawals, +and deaths, whose property is held in common without any individual +interest, may properly be brought in equity as the remedy at law would be +inadequate.(394) + +*218.* _Blasphemy, Sabbath, Lord's Prayer, Bible._--Christianity is a part +of the common law of the United States; it is on this ground that +blasphemy and violation of the Sabbath are made criminal offenses and that +the Lord's Prayer and the Bible are used in the schools.(395) + + + + + +CHAPTER XVIII. EVIDENCE + + +*219.* _Judicial Notice._--A church takes judicial notice without proof of +its own rules, laws, and doctrines. Every other fact should be proved +according to the rules of evidence of the church, and in the absence of a +church rule the following rules of the courts of this country should +prevail: + +1. Nothing should be admitted in evidence unless it directly proves or +disproves an evidentiary fact forming a link of a chain of facts that will +prove a fact in issue. + +2. It is sufficient to prove the substance of the issue, unless the exact +word or thing forms the issue. + +3. The burden of proof is on the one who asserts the fact, whether it is +stated affirmatively or negatively, and its proof is necessary to his +making a case. + +4. The best evidence that the case in its nature affords must be produced. + +5. Mere hearsay evidence shall not be allowed, excepting: + +(a) Matters of public or general interest. + +(b) Declaration against interest. + +(c) Dying declarations. + +(d) The testimony of witnesses since dead or absent. + +(e) Admissions. + +(f) Confessions. + +*220.* _Competent Witness._--Everybody who has the use of reason and +understands the import of an oath is a competent witness. + +*221.* _Confessions, Secret Societies._--At common law, confessions were +admissible; but there is no case in the United States since 1813 where the +court has sent a priest to jail for contempt for refusing to disclose a +confession, and no case in which a priest disclosed a confession. +Immediately after a priest was committed for contempt for refusing to +divulge the secrets of the confessional, in 1813, New York enacted the +following law: "No minister of the gospel, or priest of any denomination +whatsoever, shall be allowed to disclose any confession made to him in his +professional character, in the course of discipline enjoined by the rules +or practice of such denomination." A similar law has been adopted in the +following States and Territories: Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, +Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, North +Dakota, Ohio, New York, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, +Wisconsin, Wyoming, and Hawaii. The secrets of a secret society are not +privileged, and a member as a witness must answer all relevant questions +in court.(396) + +*222.* _Privilege, Answer._--When a question concerning a matter privileged +is put, the priest should say: "I claim my privilege as a clergyman and +ask the court not to require me to answer"; "Whatever he said concerning +the matter, was said to me in the confessional as a priest"; "I talked +with him about the matter only in my professional capacity as a priest and +confessor"; "I did not speak to him about the matter except in my +confidential capacity as priest;" or a similar statement that sets up the +clergyman's privilege without giving facts. A clergyman should not say: +"He confessed it to me," or "He told it to me in confession," or give any +other answer that implies what was said in confession, as jurors are +always watching for a hint of what was said. Neither should the priest +say, "I refuse to answer," without stating that he refuses because of his +privilege as a clergyman. The trial judge or the attorneys trying the case +may put proper questions to determine whether the information was given +the witness in the confessional or in his capacity as confessor.(397) + +*223.* _Admissions, False Statements._--Admissions or statements made to a +clergyman not in his capacity of confidential adviser or in the course of +discipline, are not privileged.(398) Neither are false statements made to +a committee investigating charges; but all statements made to such a +committee or an officer of the church, unless false and made with malice, +are privileged.(399) + +*224.* _Anonymous Letter, Clergyman._--Where a priest received an anonymous +letter alleged to have been written by a defendant, which he read to her, +he was not disqualified from testifying that she was excited and that she +stated she had no idea how the fire started, and that the letter was +unknown to her, etc.(400) The mere fact that a communication is made to a +clergyman does not make it privileged. It is privileged only when made in +confidence of the relation and under such circumstances as to imply that +it should forever remain a secret in the breast of the confidential +adviser.(401) When a matter is privileged, it is not left to the witness +whether or not he shall testify concerning it; but he can not testify +without the consent of the other party.(402) + +*225.* _Voire Dire._--Where a priest made a preliminary examination of a +woman to ascertain her mental capacity to make a confession, her answers +in such preliminary examination were admissible in a contest on a will; +but her confession was not admissible.(403) + +*226.* _England, Confession._--The rule is now accorded priests in England, +but was not formerly. Where a priest turned a watch over to its owner, the +court ordered him, under pain of contempt, to tell where he got the +watch.(404) But in another case it was held that a priest need not divulge +the confession of a defendant who was held for crime.(405) + +*227.* _United States, Rules._--In the United States courts, the rule +prevails that such confidential communications to a priest shall not be +divulged.(406) + +*228.* _Presumptions, Usage._--The usage of a church or the laws of its +organization as a religious society, if they are to be considered in +deciding legal controversies, must be proved as facts.(407) In the absence +of proof, it will be presumed that subordinate bodies, as congregations, +can not dissolve their connection with the principal organization without +permission.(408) + +*229.* _Funeral Expenses._--Witnesses' opinions as to the reasonable amount +for burial or as to the cost of a funeral being reasonable, are not +binding on a court or jury. The station of a man, the property that he +leaves, the life that he has followed, all should be considered by the +court. The whims and notions of societies and others are of minor +consideration. Those who make funeral expenses that are not allowed by the +court must pay them.(409) + + + + + +CHAPTER XIX. CONTRACTS + + +*230.* _Business, Religious Service._--A church organization has the legal +right to make any contract concerning its own affairs that is not +prohibited by its by-laws or its charter, subject to all laws of legal +contracts in the business world. When the consideration is a religious +service duly performed, there seems to be no objection to it. Therefore, a +minister may collect for preaching a sermon, attending the sick, or saying +prayers, or performing any other religious service. But an incorporated +church has no authority to enter into a contract for an ulterior purpose, +such as the employment of a vessel for the purpose of an excursion.(410) + +*231.* _Incorporated Body._--The only way a religious society that is +incorporated can make a contract is by a vote of the aggregate body or of +the board of trustees, or through an agent authorized by a vote of one +body or the other.(411) + +*232.* _Mortgage, Deficiency Judgment._--Where a mortgage had been +foreclosed against church property before the congregation was +incorporated, a deficiency judgment can not be rendered against such +church corporation.(412) But where a congregation was incorporated after a +debt had been incurred and took charge of the property, it assumed the +debt.(413) + +*233.* _Building Contracts._--The taking part in a meeting by voting and +appointing committees to make contracts will bind those taking part in all +contracts made in accordance with the directions of such meeting. In some +States the individuals are held only to the amount that each subscribes, +but in other States each individual is liable for the entire debt.(414) + +*234.* _Individual Promise, Subscriptions, Signature._--An individual +promise to give a donation to charity, can not be enforced.(415) But +subscriptions to build a church or other charitable institution or to pay +the salary of a clergyman when signed by more than one person, have been +held binding in some cases on the disputed rule of a-promise-for-a-promise +consideration.(416) In the foregoing cases the donor might revoke his +subscription or in case of his death his estate would not be liable.(417) +However, when expenses have been made or steps taken in the carrying out +of the object of the subscriptions, the general rule is that the +subscriptions become binding contracts.(418) If the object of the +subscriptions be abandoned or changed without the consent of the +subscriber, he is thereby released. A promissory note given for the +subscription, unless negotiated for value in due course of trade, does not +change the foregoing rules.(419) Where many persons subscribed to build a +church and some of them failed to pay, one who paid brought an action on +behalf of himself and others and collected the unpaid subscriptions.(420) +The defendant Nalty signed "Nalty Family, $1,000," but he was held +personally liable.(421) + +*235.* _Special Purpose, Suit._--When money is subscribed for a special +purpose, as for rebuilding a church, it belongs to the church +organization; and in a suit to recover the money the action should be +brought in the name of the corporation, if incorporated, and if not +incorporated it should be brought in the name of the interested +party.(422) + +*236.* _Promise, Consideration._--A promise made by the owner of land to a +trustee for the benefit of a religious society, that he would convey the +land to such society if it would build a church thereon, is a good and +lawful consideration; and after work was begun on the church, the contract +was enforceable in a court of equity.(423) + + + + + +CHAPTER XX. PEWS + + +*237.* _Sold, Rented._--Prior to the Reformation pews were not sold nor +rented and every member had the right to sit wherever he pleased in the +body of the church. After the Reformation, the ordinary or bishop was +granted the right of "faculty" to rent or sell pews.(424) + +*238.* _Incorporeal Hereditament._--The English title in a pew is in the +nature of a right of way through another's land; it is an incorporeal +hereditament. In the absence of express law, the title to pews in this +country is said to be in the nature of real estate, and in fact not very +different from the English title.(425) In some States the title is made +personal property by statute.(426) And in others the courts have inquired +into the law of the church and adjudged the title accordingly.(427) The +general rule is that the owner of a pew simply has an easement.(428) + +*239.* _Catholic Church, Pew Rights._--In the Catholic Church, by the canon +law, the ownership in or control over a pew is forbidden to laymen. +Notwithstanding that, if the party holding the title violates the rule of +the church by giving a deed to the pew-holder, the courts would probably +sustain his title.(429) However, as the clergy can neither rent nor sell +pews without becoming subject to the law of the land and the jurisdiction +of our courts, it is important to know what the law of the State is. + +*240.* _Land, Use, Rent Pews._--Where land was conveyed in trust to the +bishop of a diocese and his successors for the erection of a church for +the use of a congregation, the right to rent pews vested under the deed +and laws of the Catholic Church in the parish priest and not in the +trustees afterward elected, as the parish priest was the agent of the +bishop.(430) + +*241.* _Trustees, Sale in Perpetuity._--Without authority of law the +trustees of a church can not make an absolute sale in perpetuity of a pew +without any reservation of rent.(431) The sale of a pew in a church will +be determined in a case according to the particular facts.(432) + +*242.* _Pew, Right to Occupy, Conditions._--A grant of a church pew in +perpetuity does not give the owner an absolute right of property as a +grant of land in fee; but gives only a right to sit therein, although he +may maintain an action in court for protection of his rights.(433) In +Vermont a pewholder has only the right to occupy his seat during religious +services and holds it subject to the superior right of the society owning +the pew.(434) A condition in the deed to a pew that a holder about to +leave the congregation shall offer it to the society for a certain price, +is not invalid.(435) Where a pewholder held his pew by a certain agreement +and after the church had been remodeled he bought a different pew, the +conditions attached to the first pew did not apply to the last.(436) Pews +owned by the occupant pass to the heirs as real estate instead of going to +the executors as personal property in States where the title is in the +nature of the title to real estate.(437) + +*243.* _Tax, Assessment._--A tax assessed upon the pew of a religious +corporation in part for purposes not specifically named in a deed of the +pew, which alone gives the power to make such an assessment and which +strictly defines and limits such power, is invalid _in toto_.(438) The +right to make an assessment on pews must be founded upon law, else it can +not be enforced.(439) When a congregation sells pews at auction rent free +for the purpose of building a church, it has no power thereafter to assess +the pews for the salary of the minister.(440) + +*244.* _Pewholders' Rights._--A pewholder has the exclusive right to occupy +his pew when the house is used for the purpose for which it was erected; +but he can not convert his pew to other purposes not contemplated.(441) If +he has paid his pew-rent according to agreement, he is entitled to use his +pew on all occasions when the house is occupied, even when it is open for +purposes different from those mentioned in the conveyance thereof; and he +has the right to exclude all others from his pew by fastening the door or +otherwise, and any one who enters his pew knowing the facts, is a +trespasser and liable to an action for damages.(442) The owner of a pew +has no right to put an offensive covering thereon nor use his pew in any +way to the annoyance of the congregation or not in keeping with the place +and conditions. By placing anything offensive about his pew, he may be +liable for maintaining a nuisance, and such offensive thing may be +removed; but, as far as possible, it must be removed without damaging the +pewholder's property.(443) + +*245.* _Rebuilding, Remodeling._--An injunction was granted on the bill of +pewholders, restraining the authorities of the church from pulling it +down, as they were going to use the materials in the erection of a new +church on a different site. On the answer, the injunction was dissolved on +the ground that if the complainants had rights which would be violated, +there was a remedy at law and that the nature and extent of the injury +were not such as called for the interposition of a court of equity by +injunction.(444) Where a parish abandons an old church and builds a new +one it does not become liable to any pewholder for damages by reason +thereof unless it has acted wantonly or intentionally to injure the +pewholder.(445) But when it becomes necessary for the purpose of repairing +or remodeling a church, to destroy old pews, a pew built by a member under +contract with the church can not be removed or destroyed without +compensation.(446) Pew rights are subject to the right of the parish to +pull down and rebuild a church either as a matter of necessity or +expediency, but in the latter case the owner of a pew is entitled to +payment.(447) A pewholder has only the right to occupy his pew during +public worship, and when the church has become so out of repair that it +can not be used for public worship, the owner of a pew can recover only +nominal damages for injuries to his pew.(448) + +*246.* _Selling Pew on Execution._--In an action to recover the value of a +pew sold at auction, the merits of the case will be tried according to the +law of the land.(449) It is doubtful whether a pew in a church can be sold +for private debts of the pewholder.(450) It depends somewhat upon the +title and State law of exemptions.(451) To render an attachment of a pew +valid, it is not necessary for the officer to come in sight of the pew or +even to enter the church.(452) + +*247.* _Members, Pew._--Members of the congregation may be required to pay +for a pew or sitting in the church, and where a priest ejected a member +from the church because he would not rent a pew, he was sustained by the +court.(453) + +*248.* _Free Church, Seats, Lease._--The trustees of a free church may +assign seats and forcibly remove one from a seat without authority.(454) +Where a pew is real estate, a pewholder may acquire the right to it by +prescription in the usual way.(455) Where pews are not rented and the +members support the church by voluntary subscriptions, they have equal +right to the occupancy of the pews. But where the church builds the pews +and rents them, a man paying rent for a pew holds it under lease in the +nature of a lease to real estate. However, he does not obtain all the +rights of a lessee of land, and in many cases a rule of the church governs +the holding of pews, which will be observed by the State courts.(456) + +*249.* _Executors, Pew-Rent._--The executors of a pew owner are not bound +to pay pew-rent accrued after the owner's death. + +*250.* _Voting, Pew-Rent, Arrears._--Where a church is incorporated and by +its charter or the laws of the State it has authority to make reasonable +by-laws, a by-law which prohibits any person from voting whose pew-rent is +in arrears for more than two years, is valid.(457) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXI. PROPERTY + + +*251.* _Unincorporated, Trustee._--The question whether an unincorporated +religious society may take a gift or devise, is determined by the law of +domicile.(458) Generally an unincorporated religious association can not +hold property in its assumed name, but it must be held by conveyance in +trust to a trustee named.(459) + +*252.* _Charter, By-Laws._--When the charter or by-laws of a church +corporation provide that they may be altered, such changes may, after the +execution and delivery of a deed, immediately adhere to the title.(460) + +*253.* _Suits, Corporation, Members._--Cases may occur in which the +corporation in its corporate capacity, or the society in its collective +capacity, may be a plaintiff or a defendant in a suit between it and one +or more members of the religious society in their individual capacity or +in their collective capacity, in a quasi-conspiracy or concerning other +torturous acts, or a collective contract.(461) + +*254.* _Deed, Court, Title._--A deed made in pursuance of an order of a +court having jurisdiction passes good title.(462) + +*255.* _Subscription, Lots._--Any one may convey title to a church as his +part of the subscription by merely marking it on a plat made by him, as +lots donated to such church.(463) + +*256.* _Misnomer, Identity._--The misnomer of a religious society or +corporation will not invalidate a mortgage where the identity of the +society can be clearly shown.(464) + +*257.* _Adverse Possession, Color of Title._--A religious corporation may +obtain title to land by adverse possession. The length of such possession +is determined by the laws of the State, the usual period being twenty +years.(465) Unless the laws of the State require it, color of title at the +time of asserting adverse possession need not be shown.(466) + +*258.* _Sale, Restrictions._--In some States when not restricted by the +laws of the organization the parish corporation may sell the premises in +order to pay the church debts. However, it is not a common law right.(467) + +*259.* _Deed._--A deed to "The Evangelical Order of Christians" was +sufficiently definite for a valid conveyance.(468) + +*260.* _Error._--A clerical error in the name of the grantee will not make +a deed void. However, when such error has been discovered, it should be +corrected.(469) + +*261.* _Mortgage, Bishop, Debts._--The archbishop of a church to which +property is bequeathed, can not mortgage it without authority from the +church or under the law.(470) Also, the bishop of a diocese to whom land +had been conveyed in trust for a particular congregation, could not +execute a valid mortgage thereon to secure his own indebtedness.(471) But +a religious society in the absence of prohibitionary legislation, has +power to mortgage its property to secure its debts.(472) + +*262.* _Deed, Trust, Fee._--A deed of land to a Catholic bishop and his +heirs and assigns forever in trust for a Catholic parish for the purpose +of a free burial ground, gave the bishop an estate in fee.(473) + +*263.* _Debts, Creditors._--A committee of a religious society authorized +to sell lands to raise money to pay its general debts, is not authorized +to execute a mortgage for the purpose of securing various creditors +holding claims; and the defect in such mortgage is not cured by a vote at +a subsequent meeting to which the committee made a report of its +action.(474) + +*264.* _Mortgage or Sale, Notice, Consent._--Whenever there is to be a +mortgage or sale of the church property, if it is to be done by the +corporation, it must be done strictly in accordance with the charter and +laws of the corporation, and if those do not provide therefor, every +member should receive a reasonable notice to attend a meeting of the +congregation and the question should be submitted to such meeting and a +vote taken thereon. If all the proceedings are regular and the proper +officers (president and secretary) of the corporation be authorized to +make a conveyance, it is good in law.(475) However, if the irregular acts +of officers or members of a congregation are subsequently ratified in a +lawful manner, they become binding.(476) When consent of the court is +required, it must be obtained.(477) + +*265.* _Title, Taxes, Judicial Notice._--If the title is in the bishop in +fee in accordance with church law it is not "owned by any religious +association" and is liable for taxes. The laws of the Catholic Church are +not the subject of judicial notice, but must be alleged and proved as any +other fact.(478) + +*266.* _Title, Diocese, Rule._--Where the title to the property of the +diocese was in the bishop for the use of the church and subsequently the +diocese was incorporated, the bishop was not divested of title and it was +still necessary to have the property conveyed by deed.(479) In some other +States, however, the contrary rule prevails.(480) + +*267.* _Priest, Deed, Funds._--Where it was claimed that a priest purchased +lands and took the deed in his own name and paid therefor with funds +belonging to the congregation, the conveyance will not be decreed by the +court only upon the clearest and most satisfactory evidence.(481) + +*268.* _Monks, Missions, Title._--The fact that the monks or priests were +at the head of the missions in California when it was acquired by the +United States, does not prove that the Catholic Church had universal +ownership of the property.(482) The acts of Congress giving the city of +San Antonio authority to sell public lands, was intended, no doubt, to +dispose of mission property, but it was held not to affect the Catholic +Church, the title to which had been confirmed by another act of +Congress.(483) + +*269.* _Texan Revolution, Land._--At the time of the Texan Revolution, a +Catholic church held no real estate of perfect title, but enjoyed only the +use of the land that it possessed and continued so to occupy after the +admission of Texas into the Union.(484) + +*270.* _Priest, Agent, Deed._--The priest in charge of a congregation is +the agent of the archbishop, and where the title to the real estate is +conveyed by absolute deed to the bishop, the congregation, against the +protest of the priest and without obtaining leave from the bishop, has no +right to tear down a church for the purpose of rebuilding or repairing +it.(485) And a priest in charge of mission property may maintain in his +name an action to recover its possession.(486) + +*271.* _Devise, Uncertainty._--A devise of property "to the Roman Catholic +Orphans" of a certain diocese, making the bishop of the diocese executor +of the will and giving him power to sell the property and use the proceeds +for the benefit of the Roman Catholic orphans, is void for +uncertainty.(487) + +*272.* _Donor, Ambiguous Provision._--The religious convictions of the +donor may be shown for the purpose of construing an ambiguous provision of +a deed or will.(488) + +*273.* _Trust, Evidence._--Without any trust being declared in writing, +parol evidence can not be allowed to prove that the Catholic Church and +parsonage is held in trust for the congregation by the bishop of the +diocese, notwithstanding that the moneys for purchasing the lands and +putting up such buildings were collected by subscriptions and +contributions made to the priest in charge under the law, usage, and +polity of the Roman Catholic Church.(489) At common law land may be +granted to pious uses before there is a grantee to take it. In the +meantime, the title is in abeyance.(490) Where the title to parsonage +lands is in the minister as a sole corporation, on his death the title +remains in abeyance until a successor is appointed.(491) + +*274.* _Money, Control._--Money raised by a Catholic congregation for the +purpose of building a church does not come under the absolute control of +the bishop or priest, although put into the hands of the latter for safe +keeping. It is subject to the control of the congregation, although the +members of the congregation refused to obey the command of the bishop of +the diocese to consolidate with another church to which the priest was +removed.(492) + +*275.* _Church, Building, Removing._--Where subscriptions were secured to +build a church at a particular place as a memorial to a certain person, a +congregation may be enjoined from tearing down the building and removing +it to another place.(493) But a court of equity will not prevent the +removal of a church where a majority of the congregation favors it, +although a legal meeting had not been held to determine the matter.(494) + +*276.* _Church, Use, Division._--A church guild that erected a building +adjoining a church for parish purposes, with the assent of the +congregation, can not deny the authority of the church and use the +building for other purposes.(495) But if members are improperly excluded +from the use of the church property they must appeal to the courts for +redress and can not resort to acts of trespass to gain entrance into a +church.(496) A court of equity will compel persons having charge of the +temporalities of a church, whether incorporated or not, to faithfully +perform their trust and to prevent the diversion of the property from its +original purposes. The court will not interfere in strictly religious +matters.(497) + +*277.* _Spanish Territory._--When Alabama was a part of Spanish territory, +a deed of land "to His Catholic Majesty for the purpose of building +thereon a parochial church and dwelling-house for the officiating priest," +the money being paid out of the royal treasury, did not constitute the +King of Spain a trustee for the church or transfer to the church in equity +a title to the lots.(498) + +*278.* _Trust, Purposes, Doctrines._--When a conveyance of a lot is made to +certain persons of a religious society and their successors in trust for +religious purposes, all the members become beneficiaries in equal degree +notwithstanding some of them may have contributed larger sums than +others.(499) Land conveyed to a church for valuable consideration belongs +to the church, whatever change may take place in its religious doctrines; +and if a minority secedes on the ground that they are the ones who retain +the original tenets of the church, they can not take with them either the +whole or pro rata share of the church property.(500) + +*279.* _Control, Revenues._--The trustees of a corporation of a church or +of a religious society have entire control over the revenues of such +body.(501) + +*280.* _Leave to Purchase, Title, Canons of the Church._--A congregation +wanted to buy a church and priest's house, but the archbishop refused +leave to purchase, but granted permission to keep the premises for +religious purposes for a time. The members formed a society and bought and +took title in the name of the "Lithuanian Benefit Society of St. Anthony." +Then the archbishop wrote them a letter requiring the deed of the premises +to be put in his name, which the congregation refused to do. A part of the +congregation brought a suit in equity to enforce the transfer from the +society to the archbishop. The court held that if the congregation was +under the church and acknowledged its authority, the title must be settled +by the canons of the church; otherwise, the majority of the congregation, +in a duly called meeting, should determine where the title should be +vested.(502) + +*281.* _Cemetery, Authority._--When a congregation that had title to a +cemetery for many years entrusted the management and sale of the lots to +the priest, he had thereby authority to create servitudes, such as alleys +to lots, which become binding on the congregation and all third +persons.(503) + +*282.* _Real Estate, Purpose._--A church has no power to acquire and hold +real estate for any purpose other than that of promoting the object of its +creation, and any contract entered into for a purchase of real estate as a +matter of speculation is _ultra vires_ and void.(504) + +*283.* _Limitation, Lands._--A statute of the State prohibiting a religious +society from holding more than twenty acres, applies to a single parish or +congregation and not to the entire denomination when it consists of more +than one congregation.(505) + +*284.* _Conditions, Bequest, Deed, Time._--Where property has been devised +for a particular purpose or on certain conditions attached thereto, the +law may be invoked to protect the fund according to the bequest.(506) And +where a deed contained a clause that the lots should never be sold nor +used in any other way except for the benefit of a specified Protestant +Church, although the deed contained no clause of forfeiture, when the +congregation sold the property the grantor was entitled to have the deed +set aside and the title re-vested in himself.(507) And a grant made upon +condition that a church be erected thereon, prevents the grantee from +conveying it for other purposes without the consent of the grantor or his +heirs.(508) But where a devise was made on condition that a church be +built on the property within three years, the provision being a condition +subsequent, a court has the right to extend the time.(509) + +*285.* _Will, Forfeiture._--The provision in a will or deed that land shall +be used for purposes of a certain church, may create a trust for the +benefit of the church only and not a condition the breach of which would +work a forfeiture.(510) When a condition is put in a deed that it shall be +forever used as a burial ground for the interment of bodies, it is +doubtful whether the grantor and grantee together may change the uses of +the property. Therefore, it is important in taking deeds to cemeteries to +have no condition whatever, unless such conditions are desired.(511) + +*286.* _Condition, Quit-Claim._--After conveying land upon a specified +condition, the grantor then gave a quit-claim deed, and the court held +that that relieved the grant from the condition.(512) + +*287.* _Bishop, Trust, Successors._--A deed of land to the bishop of a +church for a Protestant Episcopal church in fee simple, created a trust +and on the death of such bishop the title passed to his successors.(513) +Where a grantee in a deed absolute on its face, is in fact archbishop of +the Roman Catholic Church for his diocese, its canons and decrees +regulating the mode of acquiring and holding church property are competent +evidence to show that the property is so held in trust for purposes for +public worship and other charitable uses. And property so held by a +Catholic bishop in trust for the diocese, or in trust for a congregation, +school, cemetery, or asylum, for the separate use of each, is not +chargeable with any part of the expenses of another one or for improving +the church property generally in the diocese.(514) + +*288.* _Trustees, Vacancy._--When land is conveyed to certain persons as +trustees of a church and their successors lawfully appointed, a court of +equity will not step in to fill a vacancy but will leave that to be filled +by the church in accordance with its discipline.(515) But an attempt to +sell real estate of a religious society against the provisions of its +charter, will be prevented by a court of equity.(516) + +*289.* _Church, Majority, Change._--When property is conveyed to a church +having a well-known doctrine, faith, and practice, a majority of the +members has not the authority or power by reason of a change of religious +views to carry the property thus dedicated to a new and different +doctrine.(517) + +*290.* _Title, Harmony, Division._--The title to church property in a +divided congregation is in that part of the congregation which acts in +harmony with the law of the denomination; and the ecclesiastical laws and +principles which were accepted among them before the dispute began, are +the standard for determining which party is right.(518) In other cases the +division of church property, where there is a division of the +congregation, depends upon its particular facts.(519) Where $400 was +bequeathed to a Lutheran congregation in S----, there being at the time of +the making of the will but one Lutheran congregation in the place, but +subsequently a majority of the trustees and members with the pastor left +the church and built a new one, the old church continued vested with the +title to the property and all its funds.(520) + +*291.* _Perversion, Misuse, Suit._--Unless there is substantial departure +from the purpose of the trust which amounts to a perversion of it, a court +of equity will not interfere to prevent the misuse or abuse of a trust of +a religious nature. In actions in the State court, if the church is not +incorporated, an action should be brought in the names of the members +collectively, and if they are too numerous to be all named, the suit may +be brought in the name of one or more of them for the whole. The same +rules apply to religious societies when sued. However, in some dioceses, +particularly in the Catholic Church, the title to the church property is +in the bishop and he thereby becomes an interested party who must be made +either a plaintiff or a defendant.(521) + +*292.* _Rights, Contracts, Torts, Crimes._--Vested property rights, +contracts, torts, and crimes, are usually subject to the laws of the State +and the control and judgment of a church tribunal is seldom final. While +the State courts have no ecclesiastical jurisdiction and can not revise or +question ordinary acts of church discipline, they have the power to +adjudicate conflicting claims of parties to the church property or the use +of it.(522) + +*293.* _Cemetery, Assessments._--Where a lot was bought for the purpose of +building a church but was used for a cemetery, and a church was built at +another place and the deed to the lot was taken in the name of the +trustees, the pastor and a member of the church corporation were not the +proper parties to bring an action to restrain the State from selling the +lot to pay the assessments for pavement, as they had no legal or equitable +interest for the protection of which they could claim the interposition of +a court of equity.(523) + +*294.* _Burned, Revert, Vested._--The fact that a church on lands donated +to the parish, on condition of sustaining the church, burned down, the +title did not revert to the grantor's heirs.(524) Also land granted a +bishop for church uses, vested immediately in him and was not forfeited +because it was not used for church purposes.(525) + +*295.* _Abandoned, Revert._--Land granted to trustees and their successors +forever in trust to erect a Methodist church, according to its rules and +discipline, which was used for such church for a long time and then +abandoned and sold to parties who converted it into a blacksmith shop, did +not thereupon revert in the absence of a provision to that effect.(526) + +*296.* _Uses and Trusts._--The chapter of the Wisconsin statutes on +religious societies, although not included in the same title as the +chapter abolishing all uses and trusts excepting as therein created, was +not intended to prohibit the trusts expressly authorized by the +former.(527) + +*297.* _Trust Funds, Account._--Where a member of the church received funds +to invest in his own name for the benefit of the church, he will be +obliged in a court of equity to give full account for the money and its +profits.(528) + +*298.* _Fund, Diverted, Split._--A fund created for a particular purpose, +as the education of children in the faith and doctrines of a denomination +at the time the fund is created, can not be diverted from its original +object.(529) Neither can such a fund be split up when a congregation is +divided, but must be retained as created.(530) + +*299.* _Church, Personalty._--A church removed from its foundation and put +on rollers was severed from the realty and became personal property.(531) + +*300.* _Lease, Purposes._--A religious literary society and scientific +corporation has power to lease part of a building owned by it for +theatrical and operatic purposes.(532) + +*301.* _Salary, Lien, Equity._--The church building and the land on which +it stands have been held subject to the payment of a debt due for the +salary of a pastor of the congregation owning such property.(533) A +contractor is entitled to a lien on the church property for work done on +the building.(534) A person who became liable for the debts of the +congregation incurred in the purchase of church property, obtained relief +in equity by subjecting the church property to a sale.(535) + +*302.* _Bankruptcy, Creditors._--There is no provision of law for a church +corporation to make an assignment in bankruptcy. However, the church +corporation may be sued and a receiver appointed to take possession of the +property and sequester the assets.(536) But where assignments in +bankruptcy and a sale and conveyance of church property are lawful, the +church property may be assigned for the benefit of the creditors.(537) + +*303.* _Jurisdiction, Process._--In order to obtain jurisdiction where +there are contentions between various persons claiming to be officers, the +only safe rule is to serve the process on all those who are in the offices +or claim the offices upon the occupants of which the papers must be +served.(538) + +*304.* _States, Property, Restrictions._--Some States restrict the quantity +and use of property that a religious society or church may hold. Other +States have no restrictions; but nearly all the States have some statutory +law on the subject, which is changed so frequently that it would be +useless to give the provisions of such law in this work.(539) + +*305.* _Land, Limitation._--A statute of Illinois relating to Catholic +societies contains no limitations on property rights, but it was held that +the general law applied, and that an organization having ten acres could +not acquire additional land by devise. A conveyance of land to a +corporation after it has taken all the land allowed by law, is void.(540) +In Kentucky where a church is limited to fifty acres and a devise was made +to a church for the benefit of foreign missions, it was held valid under a +statute providing that all devises for relief of aged, impotent, poor +people, churches, or for any other charitable or humane purposes, shall be +valid.(541) Maryland's peculiar law by which leave must be obtained from +the Legislature for a conveyance of more than two acres of land, has been +construed to give the Legislature authority to ratify a conveyance that +otherwise would be void under the statute.(542) Also, it was held in the +same case that a church might acquire more land, but that it would be +restricted with regard to its use. A statute prohibiting a religious +society from holding more than twenty acres of land applied to a single +religious society and not to the denomination.(543) Where the territorial +law provided that no religious corporation should hold real estate of +greater value than $50,000, a receiver was appointed for the Mormon +corporation.(544) + +*306.* _Corporations, Bequests._--Foreign religious corporations may be +entitled to recover bequests made to them in some States; but the general +rule is that a foreign religious society has no better right to take +property by devise than a domestic corporation.(545) When the statute +requires a conveyance to specify the purpose for which a religious society +takes land, the failure to so specify renders the deed void.(546) But the +Young Men's Christian Association was declared not within the limitation +because it was not formed for pecuniary benefit and profit and was not +under the control of any one denomination nor formed for religious +worship.(547) + +*307.* _Collateral Attack._--A devise of land to a religious society which +will increase the title beyond the amount that is allowed by statute, can +not be attacked collaterally by a private individual.(548) It is for the +State and not for the individual to make inquiry into excess on the part +of a religious society in its accumulation.(549) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXII. RELIGIOUS SERVICES + + +*308.* _Worship, Discipline, Innovations._--The denomination itself, +according to its rules and regulations, determines what services shall +form a part of its public worship. The inferior authority in the church +has no right to violate the discipline by innovations. Whether or not +devotional singing may be accompanied with instrumental music, must be +determined by those who administer the discipline of the church.(550) + +*309.* _Doctrines, Temporal Affairs._--The fact that the congregation sells +the pews does not give the owners the right to determine what doctrines +shall be preached in the church, nor who shall preach them.(551) A +majority of a local church can not change the faith of the church against +the protest of the minority.(552) The corporation of the congregation is +governed by the majority only in temporal affairs.(553) However, some of +the Protestant churches are so independent that a vote of the congregation +may transfer them from one denomination to another.(554) + +*310.* _Contributions, Presbyterians, Methodists._--Where certain persons +by contributions built a church and the title was taken and held by the +Presbyterians who permitted all other denominations to hold services +therein, all of which was a condition of the subscriptions for +establishing the church, when the Presbyterians sold out to the Methodists +and they held it for their own exclusive use, those who contributed the +money had the right to resort to the court to enforce their rights to +worship in such church.(555) + +*311.* _True Religion, Courts._--Ordinarily the civil courts do not +interfere where there is a question as to which of two or more parties is +adhering to the true religious teaching of the denomination. If no +question of property or civil rights arises, the court will not +interfere.(556) + +*312.* _Heresy, Injunction._--Where a minister did not preach the doctrine +and the entire system of Calvinistic theology received and taught by that +denomination, he had no right to the pulpit of the church, and the court +granted an injunction against his officiating therein.(557) + +*313.* _Bequest, Sects, Condition._--Where a bequest was made to erect a +place of worship with the privilege for other sects to worship therein and +forever to be used as such, the trustees in whom the title vested had no +authority to sell without the consent of the grantor or his heirs; and the +congregation having sold the church property and it having been thereafter +used for a store, the grantor's heirs had a right of entry for condition +broken.(558) + +*314.* _Sexton, Undertaker, Authorities._--The sexton who has charge of the +church property may lawfully remove from the church an undertaker who, +after being warned to desist and leave, persists in conducting the funeral +in violation of rules prescribed by the authorities of the church.(559) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXIII. BEQUESTS, DEVISES, AND GIFTS + + +*315.* _Statutes, Wills._--In some States a religious society can not take +under a will, and a bequest of money to a church is void.(560) In +Connecticut any devise to a religious corporation not expressly authorized +by statute, is void.(561) In Maryland leave to devise land to a religious +society must be obtained from the Legislature.(562) In all the States it +is safest to consult and carefully follow the statute in drawing a will. + +*316.* _Masses, Alabama._--Formerly as a rule of the English common law, it +was held that bequests and devises for the purpose of having Masses said +for the soul of the deceased, were void as superstitious uses; but under +Article 1 of the Amendments to the United States Constitution, and under +similar provisions in the constitutions of the several States, the English +rule does not prevail in the United States. However, Alabama adopted the +English rule.(563) By reading the foot-note to the Alabama case, it will +be found that a majority of the States hold that such bequests are +lawful.(564) Even in Alabama if the bequest had been to a clergyman or a +certain person and accompanied by a request to say Masses, the court might +have allowed it.(565) + +*317.* _Name, Bequest, Corporation._--A mistake in a name does not render a +bequest or a gift void if the person intended can be identified.(566) +Also, a devise may be made to a corporation not yet organized and when it +is organized the gift or devise will vest. During the interim, it will +remain in abeyance.(567) + +*318.* _Clergyman, Undue Influence._--A clergyman who is a grantee in a +deed from a parishioner, although deriving no benefit therefrom, has the +burden of showing good faith in the transaction as the law presumes that +he is guilty of undue influence. This presumption is further strengthened +by proof of the enfeebled condition of the grantor by age and illness and +his susceptibleness to influence. Where the property conveyed in trust for +the parish was greatly in excess of its needs, the deed was set +aside.(568) + +*319.* _Contest, Secession._--In case of a devise to a church which is +claimed by two societies, it is the duty of the court to decide in favor +of those who adhere to the ecclesiastical government of the church which +was in operation at the time the trust was declared.(569) However, to +maintain such action it must be brought by the proper parties.(570) + +*320.* _Bequests, Membership._--Bequests left to individuals on condition +that they shall remain members of a certain church, can be obtained only +by complying with such condition.(571) + +*321.* _Conditions, Religious Tenets._--In order to determine the +conditions of a trust the religious tenets of the donor may be shown to +aid in construction of ambiguous provisions.(572) + +*322.* _Name, Uncertainty._--A bequest to Georgetown University, in the +District of Columbia, which was incorporated under the name of "The +President and Directors of Georgetown College," is not void for +uncertainty, as the only institution of learning in the District of +Columbia is Georgetown College.(573) + +*323.* _Future Uses, Uncertainty._--A devise to a foundling or eleemosynary +institution, whenever the Christians should create one which the trustees +approved, is valid.(574) And a devise to the "First Christian church +erected or to be erected in the village of Telfairville, in Burke county, +or to such persons as may become trustees of the same," is good as a +charitable bequest.(575) A bequest to a priest to hold in trust and pay +over to the Sisters for the Poor, is valid.(576) A bequest for the care of +a tombstone is valid in some States and not in others without a statutory +provision.(577) A bequest to the bishop "to be by him used for Roman +Catholic charitable institutions in his diocese," sufficiently describes +the beneficiaries and is good.(578) Also, a bequest to Bishop England "in +trust for the Ladies of the Ursuline Order residing in Charleston in the +State of South Carolina," was held for "The Ladies of the Ursuline +Community of the city of Charleston."(579) A bequest for Masses "to a +Roman Catholic priest that shall succeed me in this place," was held void +for uncertainty.(580) A bequest in trust to a bishop by name to sell and +give the proceeds to a society named, is not a devise to the society, but +to the bishop in trust.(581) + +*324.* _Education, Priesthood._--A devise or bequest to a clergyman of +property to be used for the education of poor Catholic boys for the +priesthood, was sustained in court as sufficiently definite for +performance.(582) + +*325.* _Charitable Trust, Cy-Pres._--Equity will not allow a charitable +trust to fail for want of a trustee, but will appoint one.(583) The +doctrine of _cy-pres_ as applied to charitable gifts and trusts, is not in +force in Alabama, Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Maryland, Iowa, New +York, North Carolina, nor Wisconsin; but seems to prevail in California, +Illinois, Massachusetts, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island. + +*326.* _Error, Ambiguity._--Great latitude is allowed in charitable +bequests, devises, and gifts, in proving _aliunde_ the beneficiary +intended where there is error in the name or a latent ambiguity.(584) The +religion of the testator will be considered in proving intention. + +*327.* _Dissolution, Resulting Trust._--On dissolution of a religious +society, the money collected or derived from the sale of property goes +back as a resulting trust to the contributors.(585) + +*328.* _Charity, Institutions._--To determine what is a charitable trust, +devise, or gift, it is necessary to particularly bear in mind the most +comprehensive definition of charity. Legacies for schools, churches, +libraries, cemeteries, the poor, hospitals, and numerous other +eleemosynary institutions, have been sustained under charitable bequests +when they otherwise would have failed.(586) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXIV. TAXATION + + +*329.* _Purposes, Exempt._--Only church property that is actually used for +church or charitable purposes, is exempt from taxation. Property held for +its increase or profit is not exempt.(587) Land bought for a church on +which no work on the church is yet begun, is not exempt from +taxation.(588) + +*330.* _Lot Isolated, Not Exempt._--A lot isolated from the other property +of the church of a congregation, is not exempt because the congregation +intends to build a church thereon in the future, and actually did build a +church thereon two years later.(589) + +*331.* _Bishop's Residence, Hospital._--Real property the title to which is +in the archbishop in fee in accordance with the discipline of the Catholic +Church, is not owned by a religious association so as to exempt it from +taxation. The records do not show a trust for the diocese nor any other +beneficiary. A court will not take judicial notice of the laws of the +Catholic Church.(590) But property used as a hospital to care for the sick +and wounded of all races and religions indiscriminately, with or without +pay according to the ability of the patient, is a benevolent institution +engaged in a work of charity, and comes under the law of tax +exemption.(591) + +*332.* _Parsonage, Rented._--A parsonage owned by a congregation and used +only as a residence for the clergyman is not exempt because of some part +of it being also used for alleged religious services, to-wit: morning +prayers of the children before school, a sewing society, and a meeting +place for Sunday-school teachers.(592) However, a house and lot rented and +kept by the minister was exempt from taxation.(593) + +*333.* _Masonic Order, Charity, Elks._--A charity which is confined +exclusively to the members of the Masonic Order and their families or to +the widows and children of deceased members or those who are directly or +indirectly connected with the society, is not purely a public charity +within the provisions of the constitution relating to the exemption of +institutions of purely public charity from taxation.(594) And property +held by the Elks for entertainment and to promote social intercourse was +held not exempt.(595) + +*334.* _Supporting Church, Mississippi._--In the early ages of the States +several of them had laws for taxing all the property in parishes laid out +by the State for the support of Protestant churches. Gradually these laws +were eliminated and at the present time there is probably no State +excepting Mississippi that uses money for the support of a church. Maine +changed her laws in 1821, and other States followed from time to +time.(596) While those taxes were collected, no land within the parish was +exempt in some States and in others the property of a non-resident was +exempt.(597) In New Hampshire and Pennsylvania, a person could not be +compelled to pay the taxes to a denomination of which he was not a +member.(598) + +*335.* _Appropriations, Contracts, Rent._--Under the constitution of the +United States, Congress can not make appropriations nor give aid to any +denomination. Also, similar provisions are in many of the constitutions of +the States. However, many cases arise out of contracts, which border upon +these various rules, and in some States the constitutional provision of +the State is such that the State Legislature may legislate concerning +religions and give certain aid and support thereto. Paying rent to a +congregation for a school-room is not an appropriation or aid to a church +contrary to the constitution.(599) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXV. ELEEMOSYNARY INSTITUTIONS + + +*336.* _Poor, Institutions, Negligence._--As hospitals, homes for the poor, +and other eleemosynary institutions are supported by money given to +charity, it would be a diversion of the trust funds if such institutions +could be compelled to pay damages for negligence causing personal injury +or death. The general rule is that the person causing the injury may be +liable, but not the institution.(600) However, a charitable institution +has been held liable for negligence of its manager to notify a nurse of +the contagious nature of a case assigned to her.(601) + +*337.* _Surgeon, Gratuitous Services._--A charitable medical institution is +not liable for the negligence of its surgeon in operating upon a patient +gratuitously where such institution exercises due care in employing a +surgeon deemed competent. The fact that besides such gratuitous services, +medicine is taught therein for tuition fees and patients who are able to +pay are charged a small fee for room, board, nursing, etc., but no fee +from the patient to the doctor, does not change it from a charitable +institution.(602) However, a hospital that is an adjunct to a medical +school is liable.(603) + +*338.* _Charitable Institution._--An institution that limits its +benefactions to the members of a particular denomination is, in the +absence of a statute to the contrary, a charitable institution.(604) This +rule has exceptions.(605) + +*339.* _Charter, Real Estate._--The trustees of a religious, literary, or +other benevolent society, can not, irrespective of the powers granted by +its charter, purchase and hold real estate under trusts of their own +creation which will protect their property from creditors.(606) + +*340.* _Mortmain, Title, Trust._--The statute of mortmain was never in +force in Pennsylvania, so a religious corporation can hold the legal title +to land in trust for the heir-at-law of a testator who has devised it to +the corporation in trust for uses that were void under the English +law.(607) The only States that have statutes of mortmain are Mississippi +and North Carolina. Yet in those States the statutes are somewhat +different from the law of England. + +*341.* _Public Institutions, Support._--Benevolent and charitable +institutions under a church are not public institutions, and moneys can +not be appropriated for their support.(608) + +*342.* _Nuns, Vows, Property._--When joining a society of nuns, one of the +vows taken was that all property should be held in common and whatever +property was received after taking the vows should belong to the society. +A person who left the order was not concluded from making claim for her +property.(609) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXVI. SCHOOLS + + +*343.* _Parent, Education, State, Parochial Schools._--The right of the +parent to use judgment as to the proper necessaries of his child, +including board, lodging, and education, is generally conceded. However, +there must be no abuse of these parental rights, as the child also has +rights that even a parent can not infringe. Therefore, the State may +require a reasonable opportunity for the education of every child; and if +the parent can not give it on account of his poverty, it is in the power +of the State to take his child in charge and furnish him an education. The +right of the State to make laws requiring a parent to send his child to +school between certain ages, as from four to twenty-one years, is well +settled. The question of the parent's being obliged to send his child to +the public schools or being forbidden to send his child to a private or +parochial school, is not settled in some States; but it is being settled +in favor of the parent. The Kentucky constitution contains this provision: +"... nor shall any man be compelled to send his child to any school to +which he may be conscientiously opposed."(610) The right of the State to +supervise or inspect private and parochial schools under the police power +of the State can not be questioned.(611) + +*344.* _Orphan Asylums, School Moneys._--In 1850 the New York Legislature +enacted a law as follows: "The schools of the several incorporated orphan +asylums within the State other than those in the city of New York, shall +participate in the distribution of the school moneys in the same manner +and to the same extent in proportion to the number of children educated +therein, as the common schools in their respective cities and districts." +The court ruled that moneys devoted by the constitution to the State for +the support of common schools could not be distributed under the act, for +the reason that such asylums are not public schools; but moneys from other +sources might be paid for the education of such orphan children in +proportion to their number to those educated in the common schools of +their respective cities and districts.(612) The schools kept by the Roman +Catholic Orphan Asylum Society of the city of Brooklyn, are not common +schools within the meaning of the constitution, and a provision of law +that such schools should share in the distribution of school moneys raised +by the State was void.(613) + +*345.* _Contract, Direct Payment, Lease._--No school of any denomination or +sect is entitled to public moneys for its support, either by contract for +the education of students therein or by direct payment from the +government.(614) A school conducted by the Catholic Church in which +religious instruction is given to Catholic children is a sectarian +institution within the constitutional provision against using public funds +for sectarian purposes; but public school money expended for such a school +conducted by this school district could not be recovered by suit against +the school officers.(615) Also, a school maintained as a charity under +direction of trustees elected by the town where they must be of a certain +religion, is not entitled to public moneys.(616) But the lease of a part +of a parochial school building or the basement of a church for public +school purposed does not violate the law.(617) In the States of Maine, +Iowa, Massachusetts, Illinois, Ohio, Kansas, and Texas, the reading of the +King James Bible and the singing of hymns and saying prayers have been +held not sectarian.(618) But in Wisconsin, the court ruled the other +way.(619) + +*346.* _Teacher, Lord's Prayer, Exercise._--"A public school teacher, who, +for the purpose of quieting the pupils and preparing them for their +regular studies, repeats the Lord's Prayer and the Twenty-second Psalm as +a morning exercise, without comment or remark, in which none of the pupils +are required to participate, is not conducting a form of religious worship +or giving sectarian or religious instruction."(620) Substantially the same +rule applies in Pennsylvania.(621) However, similar religious exercises +conducted by Catholic teachers have generally been held sectarian and not +permissible in public schools.(622) + +*347.* _Ohio, Directors, Bible._--The constitution of the State of Ohio +does not enjoin nor require religious instruction or the reading of +religious books in the public schools. The board of directors of a +district has charge of the instruction and books to be used therein, and +their official discretion will not be interfered with. Therefore, they +were authorized to have the Bible read at the opening of the school.(623) + +*348.* _Public School, Bible, Prayer._--The committee having control of a +public school may make a rule requiring the school to be opened by reading +from the Bible and prayer every morning, and that each child shall bow the +head during such prayers; that any scholar shall be excused from bowing +the head whose parents request it; and when any scholar refuses to obey +such rule and his parents refuse to request that he shall be excused, the +committee may exclude such scholar from the school.(624) + +*349.* _Text-Books, State._--The State has the power to grant authority to +the State Board of Education to select and prescribe text-books to be used +in the public schools of the State.(625) + +*350.* _Bible, Conscience, Constitution._--The parent of a child expelled +from the public school can not maintain an action against the school +committee by whose orders it was done. In the same case it was held that a +rule requiring every scholar to read a particular version of the Bible, +though it may be against the conscience of some to do so, does not violate +the letter or spirit of the constitution.(626) + +*351.* _Schoolhouse, Sunday-School Purposes._--The inhabitants of a school +district have no right to use the schoolhouse for religious meeting on +Sunday against the objection of any taxpayer in the district, +notwithstanding that the officers of the district granted such right. A +taxpayer may obtain an injunction against such use, although the injury to +him be very slight, as he has no other remedy.(627) A district school +board can not authorize the use of the schoolhouse for any other than +school purposes.(628) + +*352.* _Child, Immoral Character._--The school committee in order to +maintain purity and discipline, may exclude therefrom a child whom they +deem to be of licentious or immoral character, although such character is +not manifested in acts of licentiousness or immorality within the +school.(629) + +*353.* _Parents, Studies, Teacher._--The requirement of a teacher that a +scholar in grammar shall write English composition is a reasonable one, +and refusal to comply therewith in the absence of a request from his +parents that he be excused therefrom, will justify the expulsion of a +scholar from school.(630) But when a parent selects certain studies that +the law provides to be taught for his child to study, the teacher has no +right to insist that the child shall take some other study and inflict +punishment to enforce obedience.(631) + +*354.* _Chastisement, Cruel._--The chastisement of a scholar by the +schoolmaster must not be excessive or cruel, but it should be reasonably +proportioned to the offense and within the bounds of moderation.(632) + +*355.* _Schoolmaster, Authority._--Although a schoolmaster has in general +no right to punish a pupil for misconduct after the dismissal of the +school for the day and the return of the pupil to his home, yet he may on +the pupil's return to school punish him for any misbehavior, though +committed out of school, which has a direct and immediate tendency to +injure the school and to subvert the master's authority. The fact that the +master acted in good faith will not excuse him from damages for the +punishment of a scholar where the punishment is clearly excessive and +unnecessary. However, where there is a reasonable doubt the master should +have the benefit of it.(633) + +*356.* _Force, Assistance._--And where a scholar in school hours places +himself in the desk of the instructor and refuses to leave it on the +request of the master, the master may immediately use such force and call +to his assistance such aid from another person as may be necessary to +remove the scholar. The same rule would apply to any one who is not a +scholar and intrudes upon the school.(634) + +*357.* _White, Unmarried._--Before the adoption of the fourteenth amendment +it was necessary in most States that in addition to the child being under +twenty-one years of age, he must be of white blood and unmarried.(635) In +Ohio, negroes, Indians, and children of less than half white blood, were +not entitled to the benefit of the school fund; and even where this would +entirely exclude from school children not sufficient to form a district, +still it was held that such children could not attend the white +school.(636) + +*358.* _Facilities, the Constitution._--So long as abundant facilities are +given for the education of all the children of a district, it is not a +violation of the constitution of the United States to keep negro and white +people separated. The same rule applies to courts.(637) + +*359.* _Residents, Public Schools._--Children in a German Protestant orphan +asylum are not "children, wards, or apprentices of actual residents" in +the district of the asylum, and therefore are not entitled to enter the +public schools of the district.(638) + +*360.* _Board, Majority._--Two of the three members of a school board have +no authority to act by themselves, and their individual agreement to +dismiss a teacher is void. A school board can only act at a duly called +meeting of the board, and then the majority vote duly taken decides.(639) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXVII. PARENT AND CHILD + + +*361.* _Custody, Maternal Relatives, Father._--A parent is entitled to the +care and custody of his child if he is competent to transact his own +business and not otherwise unsuitable. And the mere fact that the maternal +relatives who have had the care of the child from its birth have become +attached to it and desire to continue to care for it and are able to +secure it better advantages than its parent, does not render the parent +unsuitable to have its care and custody within the meaning of the statute. +Also, the want of a sympathetic nature or cold reserve in a parent or the +fact that he is away on business a great deal of the time, is not +sufficient to render him unsuitable. But the right of the father may be +lost or forfeited by his ill-conduct, gross ill-treatment, cruelty, or +abandonment, or when his conduct and life are such as are injurious to the +morals and interest of his child. When the father dies or forfeits his +right for reasons already given, the mother, if alive, succeeds to all +those rights, subject, however, to the same conditions as the father. And +in the case of a child of tender years, the good of the child has to be +regarded as the predominant consideration.(640) + +*362.* _Mother, Illegitimate, Father._--The mother has a right to the care +and custody of her illegitimate child to the same extent that a parent has +to his legitimate child.(641) The putative father on the mother's death +succeeds to the mother's rights as against the maternal relatives and may +secure the custody of the child by _habeas corpus_. This rule is different +from the one that prevailed in the Roman law.(642) However, when the +father has given bond for the care, support, and education of an +illegitimate child, his right to the custody of the child may be +superior.(643) + +*363.* _Legitimatized._--And when under a statute a child is legitimatized +by acknowledgment or subsequent marriage, the father has the better right +to its custody.(644) Usually there are many provisions in the statutes of +the various States which substantially provide for the rights, relative +and otherwise, of the parents and child in such cases. + +*364.* _Punishment, Instrument, Murder._--A parent or a person _in foro +domestico_ or _in loco parentis_ may give reasonable corrective punishment +with a fit instrument to a child. But if a parent or master whips a child +so that it dies, he is guilty of manslaughter. And if he uses lethal +instruments of punishment, he is guilty of murder.(645) Where a mother in +anger threw a poker at one child and hit and killed another child, she was +guilty of manslaughter.(646) The punishment always becomes unlawful when +it is excessive, and drunkenness is no excuse.(647) + +*365.* _Guardian, Religion, Courts._--In England where a child was taken +from the testamentary guardian, who after the death of the testator +changed her religion from a Protestant to a Catholic, it was held thereby +to be incompetent to continue as guardian.(648) And in New York it was +held that where the father and mother were Catholics, the guardian must +endeavor to bring the children up in that faith, as a guardian will not be +permitted to proselyte wards.(649) But where a father who was a Catholic +allowed his child to be brought up by a maternal aunt who was a +Protestant, until the child was fourteen years of age, the father was not +then entitled to the child's custody for the purpose of having it +instructed in his own faith.(650) Courts will not interfere with the +religion of a child, but will allow it to be brought up in the religion of +its parents; however, the best interests of the child will be considered +by the court without conceding everything else to its religion.(651) + +*366.* _Convent, Consent._--A daughter under age who entered a convent to +become a nun without the consent of her mother, may, on a writ of _habeas +corpus_ on the petition of her mother, be required to leave the convent +and return to her home.(652) + +*367.* _Adoption, Rights, Duties._--Persons of suitable age and +circumstances to enter the marital relations, may adopt a child. When a +married couple do not unite in adopting a child, the consent of the +non-adopting spouse must be obtained. Also, if the child's parents are +living, their consent is necessary unless they have lost their paternal +rights by abandonment or divorce. The decree of adoption may be set aside +for good cause. The adopted parent has all the rights over and duties +toward the person of the adopted child that a natural parent has, +including necessaries and religious training. Usually the child inherits +from the adopted parents, but the adopted parents do not inherit from the +child. The statutes on adoption are not the same in the several States, +but they cover the subject and must be strictly followed.(653) + +*368.* _Infancy, Manumission, Marriage._--At common law a person is an +infant until he is twenty-one years of age. Statutes have modified that +rule so that girls in some States, and both girls and boys in others, may +contract marriage at an earlier age without the parental consent. +Generally, an infant can not contract marriage without the consent of the +living parent or guardian unless the child has been manumitted. Where the +boy was under the age of consent, but he falsely told the priest that he +was of full age, his father had the marriage annulled.(654) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXVIII. HUSBAND AND WIFE + + +*369.* _Custody, Father._--A husband is entitled to the custody of his wife +against her father, and where a son-in-law killed his father-in-law in +resisting the latter from taking his daughter out of his (the +son-in-law's) house, the court held that it could not be more than +manslaughter; and if it were necessary to kill to protect and maintain his +wife, the defendant was not guilty.(655) But for good cause and without +malice a parent may advise his child to leave spouse.(656) + +*370.* _Corrective Authority, Services, Domicile._--In America a husband +gains no right to corrective authority over his wife. He can neither whip +her nor use abusive language to her. The same rule applies to the wife, as +they stand equal before the law.(657) However, a husband is entitled to +all the services of his wife and a promise to pay her extra for housework +can not be enforced.(658) Also, the husband has the right to determine +their place of domicile, and if the wife unreasonably refuses to accompany +her husband, it is desertion, for which he may obtain a divorce.(659) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXIX. INDIANS + + +*371.* _Indians, Citizens, Wards._--There are a great number of statutory +provisions concerning Indians, both in the United States statutes and in +the statutes of the several States, most of which are not of great +importance at the present time, as the Indians are confined to a few +States. When they become citizens of the State in which they reside, their +status is the same as other citizens; but so long as they remain in their +tribal relations they are taken care of as wards of the Union. + +*372.* _Schools, Cemeteries, Churches._--In Oklahoma there are schools +provided for them. When a tribe cedes 160 acres to the United States, it +will give it a school for ten years, and as much longer as it deems +necessary. Also, the Indians may have their own cemeteries, schools, and +churches, where the Indians belong to the tribes, and they are allowed +lands therefor.(660) In other States, under the general law, the money of +Indian minors may be held in the treasury by the Secretary of the Interior +and paid to parents and guardians in such sums and at such times as the +Secretary in his discretion may determine.(661) There is no doubt that out +of those moneys, parents might pay for their children at private +schools.(662) + +*373.* _Inspectors, Duties._--Under the United States laws, inspectors are +appointed to visit Indian agencies and investigate all matters concerning +them and to examine all contracts and accounts with the Indians and make +report thereon to the Secretary of the Interior. The contracts for support +of religion, schools, and charitable institutions, come under their +duties.(663) + +*374.* _President, Trades._--The President may cause Indians to be +instructed in trades and agriculture and have them taught the elementary +branches.(664) + +*375.* _Commissioner, School, Rations, Bible, Sectarian._--Another officer +of great importance is the Commissioner of Indian Affairs, who has most to +do with the education and schools of the Indians.(665) He may require +parents and guardians to send children to school and withhold rations from +them for failure so to do. Also, there is a fund under the control of the +United States as trustee, with which he may make contracts for the +education of Indian children at private schools.(666) However, the +jurisdiction of the commissioner over Indian children does not extend to +those off the reservation.(667) Among other provisions of the United +States statutes is the following: "The Christian Bible may be taught in +the native language of the Indians if in the judgment of the persons in +charge of the school it may be deemed conducive to the moral welfare and +instruction of the pupils in such schools."(668) The Bible continues its +position among the Indians, but appropriations for the Church are cut off +by the following provision: "It is hereby declared to be the settled +policy of the government to hereafter make no appropriations whatever for +education in any sectarian school."(669) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXX. JUVENILE COURTS + + +*376.* _Reformatories, Object, Liberty._--During the past few years +juvenile courts have been created for the purpose of committing children +to reformatories. The proceedings are not criminal actions, but of an +equitable nature.(670) However, as the object is to deprive the child of +its liberty, the statute must be strictly construed and followed.(671) An +infant can not waive a right.(672) If a child has been wrongfully +committed or is wrongfully detained, the proper remedy for his discharge +is a writ of _habeas corpus_.(673) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXXI. LIBEL AND SLANDER + + +*377.* _Confidential, Tribunal, Malice._--The rule is that all confidential +statements made to an officer or a tribunal of the church concerning a +member in the course of church discipline and for the good of the church, +if not made with malice, are privileged, and no action for libel or +slander can be maintained therefor.(674) + +*378.* _Member, Officer, Councils._--But slanderous or libelous statements +made concerning a person not a member of the church or made concerning a +member of the church to another member who is not either an officer or in +the councils of the church, are actionable and the person making or +publishing such statements is liable for damages. Also, a person who +repeats a libel or slander may be liable as though he were the +originator.(675) + +*379.* _Official Communication, Privileged._--An official communication +between authorities of the church or an authority and a member of the +church concerning a church matter or church members and not made in +malice, is privileged.(676) + +*380.* _Priest, Pastoral Duties._--Where a priest published from the altar +that "Peter Servatius is excommunicated, because he laid hands on the +priest to put him out of the church, and he has no more benefit of the +prayers of the church. I will not pray for him, and consider him a lost +sheep and withdraw all my pastoral blessings from him. If he die, the +burial rights of the church will be denied him," such remarks were held +defamatory, unless they were spoken in the proper discharge of the +priest's clerical and pastoral duties and without malice; and the case +should have been submitted on the evidence to a jury.(677) + +*381.* _Church Record, Excommunication._--An entry of a church record that +"A report raised and circulated by A. B. against Brother C., stating that +he made him pay a note twice, and proved by A. B. as false," is +libelous.(678) But an entry of excommunication of a member made in the +record and shown to other members, is not libelous, the latter being +properly a part of the record and the former extraneous.(679) + +*382.* _Will, Libel, Action._--The will of a priest contained a statement +that a relative had received $300 from him for clothing, maintenance, +education, etc., and promised to repay it, but paid no part of it. Then +testator bequeathed said $300 to two legatees to collect for their own +use. The relative filed a petition asking the estate of the priest to be +held liable for a libel in the sum of $50,000 and the court held that as +the right of action did not accrue until after the death of the testator, +there was a right of action against the estate. As the case never got +beyond the probate court, its authority is doubtful.(680) + +*383.* _Language, Insane, Good Faith._--Unless the language is used by the +bishop in the line of his duty, a statement that a priest is irresponsible +and insane, that he was removed from his position of priest for good +reason, and that he has been guilty of ecclesiastical disobedience, is +slanderous _per se_. To make a communication between a bishop and priest +privileged it must have been spoken in good faith and in belief that the +speaking of it came within the discharge of the bishop's duty.(681) + +*384.* _Rector, Bigamy, Tobacco, Liquor._--In a case where the rector of an +Episcopal church called upon a man charged with bigamy and after a private +conversation the minister wrote a letter to the district attorney on +behalf of the prisoner, it was held not privileged because it was not made +in confidence of the relation and was not kept as a secret.(682) A letter +from a church member of one congregation to the elders of another +congregation advising them of the unfitness of a clergyman appointed to +the latter parish, and stating that he used tobacco and liquor, that he +was an untruthful man, and that his family was no credit to the community, +was quasi-privileged; and in the absence of proof that the charges were +false and malicious was not actionable.(683) + +*385.* _Newspapers, Criticisms, Priest._--A newspaper has a right to +publish criticisms of the conduct of a priest in certain services held in +his church if no false statement of facts is given, since such conduct is +a proper subject of discussion; and if such article contains a statement +that if certain published accounts of the conduct of the priest are true +he acted in an improper manner, etc., it is not libelous because such +facts are not true, as it is not an affirmation of the truth thereof. +Where the alleged libel was published in a foreign language and the +correctness of the translation was disputed, it was an error for the judge +to instruct the jury that if the translation introduced in evidence was +correct, the defendant was liable, since plaintiff's right to recover +should not be made to depend on the absolute accuracy of the +translation.(684) + +*386.* _Clergyman, Discipline, Tribunals, Testimony, Argument._--What a +clergyman says in the administration of the discipline of the church or +what is said in tribunals to enforce discipline of the church, including +testimony and legitimate argument within the scope of the case, if said in +good faith and without malice, is not actionable in the civil courts.(685) + +*387.* _Physical Discipline, Imprisonment, Courts._--A clergyman who claims +to have been slandered by a parishioner can not administer physical +discipline nor put the offender under restraint without leaving himself +liable for damages for assault and battery or false imprisonment. If the +clergyman desires to treat the charge as a church matter, he must go into +the church tribunal; otherwise, his proper course is to bring an action +for slander in the State court.(686) + +*388.* _Sermon, False Statement, Crime._--A clergyman may, by words used in +a sermon, slander a member of his congregation. However, if he makes no +false statement and does not falsely or maliciously charge a crime, what +he says in the way of discipline is privileged.(687) The meaning of the +words "she is a dirty, vile woman," can not be extended by innuendo.(688) + +*389.* _Charges, Robbed, Hypocrite._--Charges that a person has robbed a +church or has stolen from a church, are actionable.(689) Also, charging a +person with being a hypocrite and using the cloak of religion for unworthy +purposes, is slanderous.(690) + +*390.* _Investigation, Probable Cause._--When a member of a church consents +to an investigation on complaint before a person who is not a member, if +the complaint was made on probable cause and not under the pretence of +exposing the defendant to scorn or obloquy, he could not subsequently +bring an action for libel.(691) + +*391.* _Sacraments._--To publish of a person that he has been deprived of +the sacraments of the church to which he belongs, is libelous.(692) + +*392.* _Obituary, Tolling Bell._--To falsely and maliciously publish an +obituary notice of a person living, is good ground for an action for +libel.(693) However, a complaint that a church tolled its bell to announce +the death of a member, and did report him dead when he was actually +living, and that it was all done for the purpose of annoying, harassing, +and vexing the person and his family, was held not sufficient to support +an action for libel. The latter case is doubtful law.(694) + +*393.* _Newspaper, Profane Swearer._--A newspaper in a notice of the death +of a church member has the right to state that he was a profane swearer, +if such was the case.(695) + +*394.* _Business or Property, Special Damages._--A company incorporated for +the purpose of transacting business which would include hospitals, +schools, and industrial institutions, may maintain an action for libel the +same as an individual for any words affecting its business or property, if +special damages are alleged and proved.(696) + +*395.* _Justification, Repeating._--It is no justification that libelous +matter had been previously published by a third person, that the name of +such person was disclosed at the time of repeating the libel, and that the +person who was repeating it believed all the statements in the libel to be +true.(697) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXXII. CRIMES + + +*396.* _Sins, Crimes, Discipline._--Crimes are offenses against the civil +law. The fact that the church organization may try and punish a member for +sinning, or acquit him, has nothing whatever to do with the administration +of the criminal law of the State. Therefore, a member may be arrested and +tried for any offense before or after the ecclesiastical tribunal has +taken action in the matter. But there are certain crimes of a religious +nature of which the civil law assumes jurisdiction and punishes, such as +blasphemy,(698) disturbing religious meetings,(699) etc. Most of those +laws are statutory and depend wholly upon the statute of the State where +the crime is committed. + +*397.* _Profane Language, Smoking, Disturbance._--Rude behavior or profane +language if audible,(700) smoking in the church or during services,(701) +cracking and eating nuts in church,(702) and fighting near the church so +as to disturb the services, are violations of the law.(703) A father's +taking his child out of the church with violence is a disturbance of the +meeting.(704) The disturbance of any member of the congregation assembled +for religious worship is a violation of law.(705) A sentence of $100 fine +or one year's imprisonment in the penitentiary, is not excessive or cruel +or unusual punishment on conviction for disturbing a meeting.(706) + +*398.* _Sunday-School, Church._--An ordinary Sunday-school where the Bible +and religious precepts are taught, is a church within the law.(707) + +*399.* _Private School._--A person may be punished under the statute for +wilfully disturbing a private school kept in a district schoolhouse for +instruction in the art of writing.(708) + +*400.* _Disturbing a Religious Meeting._--Under a statute against +disturbing a religious meeting, it has been held that it should define +what disturbance is punishable.(709) Also, mere want of attention or +observance of ceremonies, as standing or kneeling at times, is not a +violation of the law.(710) Neither is singing out of time, unless done +purposely,(711) nor performing a proper duty, such as objecting to a +silenced clergyman's conducting the services.(712) + +*401.* _Common Law, Offense, Statutory Law._--If there is no statutory +provision, in those States where the common law prevailed before the +admission of the State to the Union the offense is punishable under the +common law.(713) And even in States where there is a statutory law on the +subject, a person may be convicted at common law.(714) + +*402.* _Services, Violation, Time._--The nature of the services and the +discipline of the denomination may determine whether there is a violation +of the law. Usually the disturbance may occur at any place the +congregation is assembled, and at any time when any part of the +congregation is assembled for religious services or business.(715) + +*403.* _Force, Priest, Preserve Order._--A congregation may use sufficient +force to remove a disturber.(716) A Catholic priest who is the conductor +of religious services and master of ceremonies within his church has the +right to preserve order and to remove by force, if necessary, any person +who disturbs his services.(717) + +*404.* _Interrupt, Liquors, Traffic._--There are statutes in most of the +States making it a penal offense to interrupt or molest any assembly or +meeting of the people for religious worship, or to sell intoxicating +liquors or other articles of traffic within a certain distance of any +camp-meeting or other religious assembly, except at a place of business +regularly established prior to such meeting or assembly and not with +intent of evading the provisions of the law.(718) + +*405.* _Theory, Blasphemy, Crime._--On the theory that the United States is +a Christian nation, blasphemy is held to be a crime.(719) Infidels +naturally claim that it interferes with their rights. However, there is no +more interference with the private rights of the infidel than there is +with the private right of the Mormon who is forbidden to violate the laws +of the country by having a plurality of wives; and it has been held that +any words importing imprecation for divine vengeance may constitute +profane cursing or blasphemy.(720) + +*406.* _Religion, God, Ridicule, Virgin._--Words vilifying the Christian +religion,(721) denying God or the final judgment,(722) and profane +ridicule of the Holy Scriptures or of Christ,(723) are usually punishable. +Also, the use of vile words applied to the Virgin Mary is blasphemy.(724) + +*407.* _Profanity, Proof, Excuse._--The profanity must be in the hearing of +some person.(725) Every time a person profanely swears by taking the name +of God in vain is a separate offense.(726) The prisoner's confession is +sufficient proof; otherwise the prosecution must show that the offense was +committed and some one heard the words. + +Drunkenness is no excuse.(727) Punishment by fine or imprisonment is not +in violation of the constitution of the State or of the United +States.(728) + +*408.* _Sunday, Business, Fishing._--The offenses against the Sunday law +are so numerous that it would be almost impossible to review them within +the limits of this work. Of course, the carrying on of a man's ordinary +business is a violation of the Sabbath laws. But in some States selling +cigars,(729) a butcher selling meat,(730) and even selling soda +water,(731) and ice cream,(732) as well as fishing, traveling, driving, +using a slot machine,(733) and almost every other imaginable act excepting +going to church, has at some time and in some State been declared a +violation of the law, and a penalty imposed therefor. + +In California,(734) Tennessee,(735) and Washington,(736) men may be shaved +on Sunday. In some other States it has been held that running a barber +shop on Sunday is a violation of the law.(737) + +*409.* _Charity, Necessity, Benefit, Pleasure._--However, doing works of +charity and works of necessity usually are exempt. What is a work of +necessity is a question of law. Charity includes whatever proceeds from +the sense of moral duty or a feeling of kindness and humanity, and is +intended wholly for the purpose of the relief or comfort of another, and +not for one's benefit or pleasure.(738) + +*410.* _Contracts, Marriage, Notice._--The common law made no distinction +between Sunday and any other day as to making contracts, but it prohibited +holding court. In this country the statutory law invariably prohibits any +but works of necessity or charity to be done on Sunday. But marriage +settlements,(739) publication of statutory notices on Sunday,(740) and +promises to marry, have been held legal.(741) + +*411.* _Funeral, Physician, Subscriptions._--To attend a funeral, to employ +an undertaker, or a physician, on Sunday, has been tested in the courts, +and finally decided to be works of necessity or charity and not a +violation of the Sunday law. Also, subscriptions made for church purposes +and in works of charity on Sunday have been held legal and binding.(742) + +*412.* _Jews, Seventh-Day Observers._--In several of the States it has been +held that Jews and Seventh-Day observers of the Sabbath must obey the +Sunday law.(743) However, in many States there is a statute expressly +exempting people who keep the seventh day of the week; but still they +sometimes have a provision, unless "he shall wilfully disturb thereby some +other person or some religious assembly on said day." + +*413.* _Societies, Secular Work._--Business meetings of benevolent and +church societies for benevolent or church work may be held on Sunday. Even +the constitution of such societies may be amended on Sunday. However, +secular work that does not come strictly under the functions of such +societies would be unlawful.(744) + +*414.* _Sunday, Begins, Ends._--Usually people believe they know what the +word Sunday means, when it begins, and when it ends. Christianity usually +recognizes the time from midnight to midnight as Sunday, and that is the +usual time recognized by law.(745) But the solar day only,(746) or from +midnight to sunset,(747) give us a variety which may not be complete. +Also, we have the further anomaly of a note made at 2 o'clock on Saturday +night, being held valid.(748) + +*415.* _Religious Liberty, Law._--The constitutional guarantee of religious +liberty is not violated by enforcing the Sunday law.(749) + +*416.* _Necessaries, Doctor._--As a parent or husband is obliged to furnish +necessaries for his children and wife, when medical treatment becomes +necessary, he is liable for manslaughter for failure to do his duty, even +in case of religious disbelief in the efficacy of medicine. Courts are not +inclined to make any distinction as to religious belief, and the +prevailing rule in this country is that the parent is liable if he +negligently allows his child to die when it might have been saved by the +services of a doctor.(750) + +*417.* _Christian Healer, Consent._--A Christian healer can not be held +liable except under a State law. One who consents to treatment has no +action for damages unless there is a failure to exercise the care and +skill of a Christian Scientist. This rule might not apply to one +incompetent to consent to a contract.(751) + +*418.* _Politics._--A minister who had been expelled by his congregation +for voting the Democratic ticket, had some of the members of the church +arrested under the election laws for intimidating a voter. The court held +that as he "suffered no pecuniary loss, personal injury, or physical +restraint," no crime was committed.(752) + +*419.* _Mail, Obscene Language._--Under the United States postal laws +against sending "obscene, lewd or lascivious" books or papers through the +mail, a person can not be convicted without proof that the matter is +obscene, lewd, and lascivious, as the word "or" should be construed to +mean "and." Also, the court held that a newspaper article on the doctrine +of the Immaculate Conception written in coarse and obscene language that +offended the religious sentiments of the people, but had no tendency to +induce sexual immorality, did not render the newspaper unmailable nor the +publisher guilty under the United States statutes. The court says: "Those +parts of the article most relied upon to sustain the charge, though +ostensibly a discussion of a religious subject, are couched in language +not quite suitable for insertion in a judicial opinion, however well +adjusted to such applause as might be expected from taste of a certain +degree of degradation."(753) + +*420.* _"__Fair,__"__ Chances, Gambling._--A church "fair" at which chances +are sold, drawings had, or any game of chance permitted, is illegal and +may be punished as gambling.(754) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXXIII. CEMETERIES + + +*421.* _Statutes, Land._--There are sufficient statutory provisions on +cemeteries to make a large book, and the frequent changes made in such +laws render a full statement of the law impossible. The statutes against +locating cemeteries near cities, dwellings, etc., should be carefully +examined before buying land therefor.(755) + +*422.* _United States, Jurisdiction._--The jurisdiction over the United +States cemeteries is in the State where the cemeteries are located unless +such jurisdiction has been ceded to the United States.(756) + +*423.*. _Tombstones, Soldiers_.--The United States will erect tombstones at +the graves of soldiers who served in the Civil War, in all cemeteries +where their graves are unmarked. Wherever the United States has +jurisdiction over cemeteries, it has made it a criminal offense punishable +by fine or imprisonment to deface a tombstone.(757) + +*424.* _Indigent Soldiers, Tombstones._--Most of the States have statutes +providing for the burial of indigent soldiers and for putting tombstones +at their graves. The attention of relatives of deceased soldiers should be +called to it. + +*425.* _State Authority._--The State Legislature has authority to control +cemeteries or delegate that authority to some one else, and afterward to +transfer it to a different person.(758) + +*426.* _Maryland, Two Acres._--Although the declaration of rights of the +State of Maryland restricted the sale of lands for a cemetery for a church +to two acres, the Legislature has power to grant leave to a cemetery +association to take title to more land. And where the trustees bought +twelve acres of land for a burial ground and a subsequent act of the +Legislature authorized the enlargement of the cemetery not to exceed +twenty-five acres, the title to the excess of the valid purchase was +ratified and the title vested in the trustees.(759) + +*427.* _Consent, Application._--Where a statute provides that no cemetery +shall be laid out without first obtaining the consent of the municipal +authorities thereto, a written communication signed by the officers of an +incorporated society is sufficient application; and a motion granting +consent adopted by the city council is sufficient action on its part to +comply with the statute.(760) + +*428.* _Charter, Ground, Members._--An application for a charter to +incorporate a cemetery need not specifically locate the ground.(761) The +charter or the articles of incorporation, or by-laws made under them, +generally determines who shall be members of the corporation. And where +every owner of a lot signing the constitution and by-laws becomes a +member, the trustees can not vote on the unsold lots.(762) + +*429.* _Police Power, Trespass, Burial._--Under our laws the State, by +reason of its police power, has control over the cemeteries within it. +However, that power has generally been very favorably exercised. Laws both +civil and criminal have been enacted to protect cemeteries from invasion +and trespass and to protect tombstones from injury.(763) When authorized +by the Legislature a city may make a by-law prohibiting burial within its +limits, notwithstanding that the cemetery has been constantly used for +over one hundred years.(764) Also, the city has authority to protect and +regulate the use of a cemetery.(765) + +*430.* _Dwelling, Limits._--Most of the States provide that no cemetery +shall be laid out within a certain limit of a dwelling. But after the +cemetery is established a man can not have it moved when he puts up a +dwelling within the limits or where he consented to the cemetery at the +time it was established.(766) + +*431.* _Well, Pollution._--And where a man had built a dwelling near a +cemetery, it was not good ground for him to prevent the enlargement of the +cemetery by showing that it might destroy his well. The court questions +whether there is any legal ground for complaint for the pollution of +subterranean waters when caused by the proper use without negligence of +the adjacent premises.(767) Additional lands may be obtained under the law +of eminent domain by condemnation.(768) + +*432.* _Exempt, Execution, Mortgage._--The statutes in most of the States +exempt the tombstones and lots in a cemetery from sale on execution.(769) +Also, a cemetery lot can not be sold under mortgage after bodies have been +buried therein, as any one may be arrested for desecration of graves.(770) + +*433.* _Public, Regulation._--The right to bury in a public cemetery is a +privilege or license that is subject to municipal regulation, and +revocable whenever the public necessity requires it.(771) + +*434.* _Nuisance, Public Health, Disease._--A cemetery is not a nuisance +_per se_, but if it is proved that the burial of dead bodies in a certain +cemetery does injure the public health and is a fruitful source of +transmission of disease, the State may prohibit such burial at certain +places within cities or adjacent to dwellings. But unless authorized by +the Legislature a council has no right by ordinance to provide that no one +shall be buried within half a mile of any habitation or public +thoroughfare.(772) And where the Legislature authorized a city to remove +the bodies interred and allow streets through the land, it had authority +to do so.(773) + +*435.* _Devise, Easement, Rules._--The general rule of law is that a man +can not devise away a cemetery lot in which members of his family are +buried. He owns only a license or at the most an easement which is subject +to the rules of the cemetery association and the police power of the +State. However, there are some exceptions.(774) + +*436.* _Conditions._--A condition in a deed that the lot can not be sold, +assigned, or transferred without consent of the cemetery corporation, is +as good and binding as in any other conveyance of real estate.(775) + +*437.* _Inherits, Right._--Where a son inherits from his father the right +to burial in a cemetery lot, he has the right to remove and inter therein +the bodies of his grandmother and sister who had been buried +elsewhere.(776) + +*438.* _Certificate._--A certificate was issued for the burial of Dennis +Coppers in the following form: + + + "Office of Calvary Cemetery, + New York, December 1, 1873. + + RECEIVED from Mr. Dennis Coppers, seventy-five dollars, being the + amount of purchase money of a plot of ground 8 feet by 8 feet, in + Calvary Cemetery. + + D. BRENNAN, + Superintendent of Calvary Cemetery. + + 4 Graves, 5, 6, 7, 8, Plot D, Section 7, Range 35." + + +*439.* _Freemason, Title, Right._--Prior to 1879, the mother, wife, and +other relatives of Coppers, who were Roman Catholics, were buried in the +lot covered by the deed given in the last paragraph. Coppers, who was a +Freemason, died in August, 1879, and his funeral services were held under +the auspices of the Masons from an Episcopal church, as directed in his +will. The rules and doctrines of the Church forbid the burial in +consecrated ground of the body of one who was not a Roman Catholic or who +was a member of the Masonic fraternity. The Church authorities refused to +allow Coppers to be buried in the cemetery, and application was made by +his relatives for a writ of mandamus to compel his interment therein, they +having deposited the necessary money to pay all the expenses. The court +held that the certificate delivered to Coppers was not a conveyance nor a +grant and did not vest title to the land in him, and that the cemetery +could not be compelled to execute and deliver to him an absolute +conveyance of the lot. His only right under the certificate was the use of +the lot for burial purposes subject to and in conformity with the +established rules and by-laws of the corporation in so far as they were +not in violation of any law. It is the tacit understanding, when a person +applies for a burial lot in a cemetery of the Catholic Church, that he is +either a Catholic and as such is eligible to be buried therein, or that he +applies in behalf of those who are in communion with the Church.(777) + +*440.* _Lots, Fee._--If the cemetery association sells 400 lots to one man +and makes a conveyance in fee thereof, it is bound thereby.(778) + +*441.* _Deed, Privilege, Heirs and Assigns._--No formal deed is necessary +to confer exclusive right to the use of a cemetery lot for burial +purposes.(779) And certificates of lots issued by a corporation convey no +title to the land, as they are not in the form necessary to constitute a +conveyance of land. Their only effect is to grant the privilege of +interment so long as the ground continues to be used for the purposes of +burial.(780) A deed of a cemetery lot "to him, his heirs, and assigns +forever," gives only an easement in the freehold, and does not give title +to the soil, and is subject to changes made necessary by altered +circumstances.(781) + +*442.* _Access, Purposes._--Title to a cemetery lot gives the right of +access to it for the usual purposes, including putting up monuments.(782) + +*443.* _Monuments, Inscriptions, Drunkenness, Non-Baptized, +Strangers._--The plaintiff obtained from the defendant a deed, which, among +other things, contained the following conditions: "that such lot shall not +be transferred without the consent of the trustees; shall be subject to +the regulations made, or to be made, in the care and management of such +cemetery by the trustees, who shall also have the right to prevent the +erection of offensive and improper monuments or inscriptions thereon, and +shall retain the right to enter any lot for the removal of anything +objectionable; that no remains shall be deposited therein for hire; and +that persons dying in drunkenness, duel, or by self-destruction, +non-baptized, non-Catholic, or otherwise opposed to the Catholic Church, +shall not be therein interred." The plaintiff had buried his father and +one of his children in the lot, and brought his wife's remains there for +burial. Upon the arrival of the funeral, two small coffins of strangers, +one of which bore the name "John McDonald," which the grave-digger had +taken up, were at the side of the grave. There was nothing to show how +those bodies came to be buried there. The plaintiff brought suit for +damages against the cemetery association. The court held that the cemetery +association was liable and that the defense that it was a public +charitable organization could not be sustained.(783) + +*444.* _Use, Forfeited._--When a deed is made of land for the use of a +cemetery only, it will be forfeited by using it for a school.(784) + +*445.* _By-Laws, Member, Burial._--Where a by-law of a church association +provides that any member who pays one dollar to have his name entered in +the record shall be entitled to a burial lot, a member who had paid one +dollar to the committee of the church before the adoption of such by-law +but had ceased to be a member of the congregation, has no right to a +burial lot.(785) + +*446.* _Adverse Possession._--If the original title to a cemetery is +defective, the title may become good by adverse possession.(786) + +*447.* _Improvements._--The owner of a lot, unless some rule of the +cemetery association or law of the State is to the contrary, may improve +it as he sees fit so long as he does not injure the property rights of +another.(787) + +*448.* _Trespass, Injunction._--An action for damages _quara clausum +fregit_, can be maintained by a relative against any one who trespasses +upon a grave of a person lawfully interred.(788) Also, a relative may +enjoin by suit in equity, on behalf of himself and others equally +interested, interference with graves in his cemetery lot.(789) + +*449.* _Roads, Alleys._--Most of the laws relating to highways apply to +cemetery roads and alleys, excepting that when a road or alley in a +cemetery is vacated the land reverts to the cemetery instead of becoming +parts of the adjoining lots.(790) In most of the States a road can not be +laid out through or take a part of a cemetery.(791) But a public highway +may be established through a cemetery by user, the same as over other +lands.(792) + +*450.* _Abandoned, Bodies._--When a cemetery has been abandoned, those who +have relatives buried there may incorporate it for preservation.(793) +Also, a corporation may change its cemetery and remove the bodies interred +therein.(794) + +*451.* _Two-Family Lot, Control._--Where a lot is owned jointly by two +families, one burying in the north half and the other in the south half, +the family burying in the north half can not prevent the burial of a +member of the other family in the south half, if entitled to be buried in +that cemetery.(795) + +*452.* _Burying Dogs, Removal._--A person who has a lot in a cemetery has +no right to bury any but human bodies therein, and one who has buried a +pet dog in her lot may be compelled to remove it.(796) + +*453.* _Stranger, Protest, Kin._--One member of a family can not authorize +the burial of a stranger in a family lot where his parents are buried and +against the protest of any other relative of equal or nearer degree of +kin.(797) When an owner of a lot has consented to the burial of a body +therein, he can not afterward remove the body or deface the tombstone, and +to do so would be a criminal offense.(798) When a lot is sold to one +person, the cemetery association has the right to limit interments to +members of the family owning the lot. However, where there is nothing +concerning it in the laws or rules of the association, it might be +different.(799) + +*454.* _Association, Bishop, Stipulation, Certificate, License, +Revocable._--The Germans of Cincinnati formed an association and purchased +ten acres of land for a cemetery "for German immigrants, their families, +and relatives, of Cincinnati and its vicinity, who might be members of the +Catholic Church and in accordance with the doctrine, discipline, usage, +and ceremonies of the same." They incorporated with fifteen trustees to be +elected annually. Before he would bless the cemetery, the bishop required +and the committee stipulated with him in writing the following: That the +rules of the Catholic Church should always be faithfully observed in this +chiefly: First, that no one should be buried in the ground who had not +been baptized or who died out of communion of the Catholic Church, to +which the bishop or in his absence the clergy of the German Catholic +Church or churches, should be the judge; second, that no poor person +should be denied a place therein because his parents were unwilling to +pay; third, that any money accrued from the ground should be expended for +pious uses and specifically for the relief of the German Catholic poor; +fourth, that the remains of persons interred in Catharine Street +burial-ground might be removed to the new ground. The bishop subsequently +closed the cemetery as a place for burial of Catholics because the +congregation had violated the stipulation: "First, by admitting those to +burial who died out of the communion of the Catholic Church; second, by +refusing to poor persons the right of burial; third, by expending the +funds of the association in other than pious uses and relief of the poor." +The court held that the corporation had authority to determine that the +cemetery should continue to be used as such, but the conditions might be +enforced by any one interested.(800) Also the question was brought before +the court in a case where a man had fallen away from the Church, and the +court held that the certificate was a mere license giving no property +rights, and revocable; and that the question as to whether the party to be +buried therein was in communion with the Church, was one over which the +Church itself had exclusive jurisdiction.(801) + +*455.* _Rules, Diocese._--One who buys the privilege of burying his dead in +a cemetery acquires no general right of property, but only a right to use +the grounds as a place of interment, and the rules governing a cemetery in +force at the time the privilege is acquired measure the extent of the use. +Where a rule of the church having charge of the cemetery forbids the +burial of non-Catholics therein, the bishop of the diocese and the local +priest, who according to the usage of the church were vested with control, +had authority and power to restrain a holder of a lot from interring the +body of his son who was not in communion with the church at the time of +his death, and who committed suicide.(802) + +*456.* _Negroes, Indians._--The fact that a man is a negro, Indian, or +other racial human being, is not good ground to prevent his burial in a +cemetery.(803) + +*457.* _Will, Body, Custody._--Where no disposition of a body has been made +by will, the surviving husband, or wife, or next of kin, has the right to +the body for the purpose of burial. But the right of the surviving wife or +husband, if they were living together at the time of the death of +deceased, is paramount to that of the next of kin.(804) A right to the +custody of the body of a deceased relative and to decide upon the final +place of burial where the deceased is unmarried, is in his next of kin, +and this right will be protected by the courts.(805) + +*458.* _Non-Residence, Burial._--Non-residence does not divest a person of +the right to burial with his relatives.(806) + +*459.* _State, Vacate, Equity, Rule._--The State may require the removal of +the bodies and vacate a cemetery without compensation to lot owners in +some extraordinary cases of eminent domain or as a health measure.(807) +Courts of equity exercise some discretion in cases that do not fall within +this rule.(808) But the superintendent of a cemetery has no right to +remove a child without the consent of the father who owns the lot.(809) + +*460.* _Consent, Bishop, Removal._--With the consent of deceased's husband +before the funeral, the father of deceased paid for the lot in which his +daughter wished to be buried with her parents. Her mother being +dissatisfied with the location, the lot was subsequently exchanged for +another in the same cemetery; but after preliminary arrangements had been +made, the son-in-law applied to a court of equity for a writ restraining +the father and the bishop from removing the body. The bishop answered that +he was willing to conform to any order of the court. The court held that +by acceding to his wife's request and allowing her father to bury her in +the first instance, and by standing mute while the arrangements for the +removal of the body were being made, the husband had no right thereafter +to prevent the removal of his wife's body.(810) + +*461.* _Court, Remove, Consent._--In a proper case a court may grant a +decree to remove the body of a relative from one cemetery to another.(811) +Otherwise no one has the right to exhume or remove a body without the +consent of those having charge of the cemetery and of those having the +right of burial, as consort or the next of kin. In some States the offense +is a felony.(812) In Nebraska, at least, those who have the legal right to +bury a relative may remove his body from one Catholic cemetery to another +without the consent of the bishop.(813) + +*462.* _Crime, Fraud, Exhume, Autopsy._--In an action on an insurance +policy where there is evidence of fraud, as death by poison, a court may +order a body exhumed for examination, although the person having the right +to control the burial of the body is not a party to the suit.(814) Public +officials have the right to disinter a body to ascertain whether a crime +has been committed.(815) But without a coroner's inquest or consent of the +surviving consort or next of kin, a doctor has no right to perform an +autopsy.(816) + +*463.* _Tort, Corpse._--The general rule is that an action of tort may be +maintained by the widow or next of kin for the mutilation of a corpse or +even for negligently exposing it to the elements.(817) In a few cases the +right has been denied.(818) + +*464.* _Custodian, Burial, Mutilation._--In the absence of a widow, a son +is the lawful custodian of the body of his deceased father for +preservation, representation, and burial, and may maintain an action for +unlawful mutilation thereof. The sense of outrage and mental suffering +resulting directly from the wilful mutilation of the body of a parent, is +a proper independent element of compensatory damages.(819) + +*465.* _Property in a Corpse, Mummy, Executors._--The question of property +in a corpse has been generally denied. However, in case of a mummy which +has become an object of curiosity, the case may be different. Where a +testator ordered his body burned and the executor presented a bill for +321 for doing so, the court disallowed it on the ground that when a man +is dead his next of kin or executors have the right to dispose of his +body; but that as it is not property, a man has no right to bequeath it +for a particular purpose.(820) Also, where a man was in jail and died +during his imprisonment and the jailer refused to give up the body until +the debt was paid, the court held that there was no property in the +corpse, and therefore there could be no lien upon it and he must surrender +it.(821) + +*466.* _Rights, Duties, Body, Will._--While there is no property in a dead +body so that it may be sold, there are rights and duties out of which may +arise tort and criminal actions. The question of the right of a man to +dispose of his body by will is not well settled in this country.(822) +There are many cases that hold that a person has the right to make a +binding testamentary disposition of his own body after death.(823) But on +the contrary it has been held that one can not by his will confer any +right as to the disposition of his body.(824) + +*467.* _Monument, Fence._--Giving the right to bury in one's cemetery lot +carries with it the right to erect a monument; but it does not carry with +it the right to fence the cemetery lot or interfere with other graves +therein. Therefore, the monument must be of such size and so located and +erected as not to interfere with the rights of others.(825) + +*468.* _Tombstone, Mother-in-Law._--A husband has the right to remove a +tombstone that his mother-in-law put over his wife's grave, and put up one +of his own choice instead.(826) The general rule is that vaults and +tombstones are personal property and may be removed "in good faith and +with care and decency" by the next of kin.(827) + +*469.* _Trees, Authority._--It is a criminal offense to cut trees in a +cemetery without right or authority.(828) + +*470.* _Charitable, Institution, Negligence._--A Catholic cemetery without +capital stock or shares and paying no profits nor dividends, does not come +under the head of a charitable institution so as to relieve it from +liability for negligence.(829) + +*471.* _Equity, Repair, Injuries._--A cemetery association may by bill in +equity be forced to keep walks and drives in good repair and consequently +is liable for injuries resulting from its negligence.(830) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXXIV. MISCELLANEOUS + + +*472.* _Societies, Law._--Religious societies organized in connection with +a church or congregation are in law civil societies and not ecclesiastical +corporations, and are governed by the law of the land. Therefore, the law +of fraternities fully covers all questions that arise in such societies. +The subject is too comprehensive to be treated at any length here.(831) + +*473.* _Society, Bishop._--A society may expel a member on due notice and a +fair trial. The refusal of the bishop to recognize a fraternity organized +as a Roman Catholic society, does not prevent the society and its officers +from exercising the powers of a religious corporation conferred by law nor +prohibit its members from maintaining their religious worship.(832) + +*474.* _Priest, Doorkeeper, Policemen, Arrest._--A priest who was in charge +of a parish and had control of the temporalities consisting of pew-rents, +Sunday and other collections, graveyard, church, school, fees, and +donations, on account of disorderly behavior of members issued tickets to +those to be admitted and ordered a doorkeeper to prevent others from +entering the church. A woman without a ticket and talking loudly, +endeavored to force her way into the church, although there were several +policemen on duty who attempted to stop her. She was arrested and her +husband brought suit for false imprisonment. The court held that a +clergyman has a right to keep disturbers out of the church and that the +doorkeepers have a right to use sufficient force to carry out the orders +of the priest; but when a doorkeeper went beyond those orders by causing +the arrest of the woman, he was not acting within the apparent scope of +his employment and the priest was not liable.(833) + +*475.* _Saloon, Church, License._--A man owned premises that had been +occupied as a saloon from 1894. In 1896 the New York law prohibiting +saloons to be licensed within 200 feet of a church, except places where +liquor traffic had been carried on prior to that time, was passed. In 1898 +a church was built within 200 feet of the saloon in question. After the +building of the church, the saloon was vacated for about ten days during a +change of saloonkeepers, and an action was brought to revoke the license +of the new saloonkeeper. The court held that the incidental interruption +of the business did not bring the place within the prohibition of the law, +and that the license could not be revoked.(834) + +*476.* _Y. M. C. A._--The Y. M. C. A. on account of giving lunches, +lectures, and having a gymnasium, for which charges are made, is not a +charitable institution so as to be exempt from liability in case of +negligence. Property is exempt only when used for exempt purposes +exclusively.(835) + +*477.* _Students, Vote, Residence._--Students at a seminary studying for +the priesthood do not thereby lose their residence at their homes and are +not entitled to vote where a college is located. The fact that they intend +to remain for four years, become clergymen, and then go to wherever they +may be called, does not give them the right of residence, and there is no +distinction between them and any other students away from home at +school.(836) However, a student of full age might become a voter in the +college precinct if he has no other fixed domicile.(837) + +*478.* _"__My Wife, Anna Jones,__"__ Divorce, Insurance._--A bequest or +devise to "my wife, Anna Jones," is not changed by a divorce without some +evidence to prove that the testator did not intend his divorced wife to +share in his estate, unless the judgment of divorce made a division of the +property. The same is true of a policy of insurance or benefit +certificate. However, there are exceptions that weaken the rule and make +its application in some States uncertain.(838) + +*479.* _Bells, Sick, Injunction._--On the complaint of an injured person, a +court will issue an injunction restraining the ringing of church, convent, +or other bells, at unusual hours or when their noise is injurious to the +sick, or when their vibration affects other premises. As the law of +nuisances applies in such cases, an exact statement of when the court +should issue the injunction or whether the injunction should be temporary +or perpetual, can not be given; but when the personal or property rights +of others are affected, an injunction may be granted. The fact that the +bells are chimes or part of a clock does not change the rule.(839) + +*480.* _Marriage, Impediments, Recording._--Legal marriage may be +contracted only between unmarried persons not related within the +prohibited degrees of consanguinity or affinity, of lawful age and +sufficient mental and physical capacity. Statutes vary greatly. In some +States affinity is not considered a legal objection and first cousins may +marry; in others, both are prohibited and other limitations of +relationship, race, and color are fixed, and registration of the clergymen +and licenses to wed are required. Also, the clergyman must report the +marriage promptly to the proper office. Fines, penalties, and imprisonment +are usually provided for violating the law. Informal marriages may or may +not be voidable or void.(840) + +*481.* _Charivari, Wedding Pranks._--Charivari, assaults, and disorderly +conduct are unlawful at all times, and can not be justified by +custom.(841) A newly wedded man who was serenaded (charivaried) by his +neighbors by firing guns, blowing horns, beating pans, rattling +horse-fiddles, etc., after ordering the rioters off fired into the crowd +and wounded one of them. On trial for assault with intent to kill, the +groom was acquitted. Shooting might not be justifiable in cases where less +potent agencies, such as a horsewhip or dogs, are sufficient, or where the +immediate protection of person or property does not call for it. The law +should be invoked when no exigency for force exists.(842) + +*482.* _Infallibility of Courts._--When a question of law at issue in a +case is duly presented to a supreme court which is the court of last +resort, its decision thereon becomes "the law of the case" and is +thereafter binding upon the court itself and all the courts inferior to +it; and no matter how often that identical case may come before the court +on subsequent appeals, the questions already decided therein will not be +reconsidered. It is interesting to compare this principle of our courts +with Papal infallibility.(843) Courts do not always adhere to the +rule.(844) + +*483.* _Money Stolen, Bailed or Loaned, Insolvency, Gifts._--Property +stolen by A. or left with him as bailee to be returned in specie, can not +be given away by him for charity. Also, when a man is insolvent he has no +right to give away any of his property.(845) That has been the rule of law +since Coke laid down the maxim: "A man must be just before he is +generous." One is insolvent when his debts exceed the value of his +unexempt property.(846) When an insolvent debtor makes a gift, a creditor +may sue and recover from the donee; or in a proper case the creditor may +force the debtor into bankruptcy to recover the gift.(847) The want of +knowledge or good faith of the donee is immaterial and no defense to an +action to recover the property.(848) + + + + + +INDEX + + +The References Are To The Sections. + +A + +Abandoned cemetery, 449;

Preface

+ +

+The three learned professions, medicine, +law, and theology, overlap; and a man who +does not know something of the other two +can not be prominent in his own. Laws +relating to Church matters are scattered +through such a vast array of law books +that it would be a burden for a clergyman +to purchase them, and without special training +he would not know where to look for +the law. Therefore a law compendium covering +those subjects relating to Church matters +must be of great value to a clergyman. +

+ +

+There is another view of this subject. +When she was mistress of the world the +laws of the Roman Empire were for the +Roman citizens, particularly the patricians; +the canon law was the law of the Christian +people of conquered countries and the Christian +plebeians of Rome. In the United States +we have the same common law for the President +and the hod-carrier, for the multimillionaire +[pg vi] +and the penniless orphan, for the +clergy and the laity. Consequently, in this +practical age a knowledge of the law of the +country with which the clergy come constantly +in contact is expedient, if not necessary. +

+ +

+The poet says: +

+ +
+
+
“What constitutes a state?...
+
Men, who their duties know,
+
But know their rights, and knowing, dare maintain.”
+
+
+ +

+To insure harmony and good order, every +Church should obey the laws of the country; +but if any law should impose upon the rights +of the Church in any way, the ruling authorities, +the cardinal and bishops, if the wrong +is national, should unite in a petition to the +United States Congress, clearly stating the +grievance and asking for its redress.1 If +the grievance should be within a State, the +bishop or bishops of the State should present +the matter to the Legislature of the State. +If the President or the Governor has authority +to remedy the matter, go direct to him. +Such was the practice of the wisest of the +Popes.2 The author never knew of an instance +[pg vii] +in which a clergyman having a real +grievance failed in obtaining a full and fair +hearing from the powers that be, from the +President downward. This method seems +to be more in harmony with the relations of +Church and State in a free government, and +more intelligent than to have a convention +of working men, who have little time to +make a study of Church matters, pass resolutions, +the passing of which generally ends +the action of a convention. +

+ +

+In the chapters that follow, the author +has refrained from giving a great multitude +of authorities, but has endeavored to give +such as are sufficient to sustain the text. +For example, under the first section, and +many others, a list of citations covering +several pages might be given. That would +add to the expense of the volume and would +not be within its compass. The book will +better fulfil its purpose by clear, brief statements +of the rules of law, and if a reader +desires to investigate further, the citations +given will guide his way. +

Chapter I. Introduction

+ +

+1. Law, Religion.—From the dawn of +the science of law it has been influenced by +religion or antagonism to religion. This is +very evident in the ancient laws of Babylonia, +Egypt, Phenicia, Israel, India, and +Ireland. It would be impossible to make a +study of the law of any of said countries +without gaining a knowledge of its religious +system, whether pagan or otherwise.3 +

+ +

+2. Religions.—Ancient nations might be +classified into pagan and those that worshiped +the universal God. However, some +of the nations at one time were pagan and +at other times had a fair conception of the +supernatural. Also, in Egypt, the class of +higher culture and education believed in the +one omnipotent and omniscient Being, but +[pg 014] +the populace, who could be controlled more +readily by flattering them in their notions +and giving their childish conceptions full +sway, worshiped idols.4 +

+ +

+3. Authority, Right.—In those nations +where the ruling authority had the proper +conception of the Almighty, there was a +strong, persistent growth of law upon the +basis of natural right; while in the pagan +nations laws were arbitrary and despotic.5 +

+ +

+4. Philosophical Foundations.—The laws +of Greece, down to the time of Plato, were +thoroughly pagan. But, following the philosophical +foundations laid by Plato and +Aristotle, unintentionally and unwittingly +the laws of Greece became imbued with the +spirit of natural law.6 +

+ +

+5. Rome, Natural Justice.—Prior to the +introduction of Grecian law into Rome, the +laws of that nation were pagan. Grecian +law from its introduction to the time of +Octavius was the civilizing element of the +empire. Then it took a turn for the worse, +the element of natural justice being reduced +and the element of arbitrary rule becoming +dominant.7 +

+ +[pg 015] + +

+6. Canon Law.—We will now turn to +the first period of canon law, which covers +the early history of the Church up to the +reign of Constantine the Great.8 +

+ +

+Canon law is composed of the following +elements: +

+ +
+
+
1. Holy Scriptures;
+
2. Ecclesiastical tradition;
+
3. Decrees of Councils;
+
4. Bulls and rescripts of Popes;
+
5. The writings of the Fathers;
+
6. Civil law.9
+
+
+ +

+7. Early Christians.—Owing to the persecutions, +the early Christians were, in a +sense, isolated from the State; they held +their property in common, and were governed +in matters among themselves by the +canon law. However, for want of freedom +of discussion and publication, they were +unable, even within a single nation of the +empire, to promulgate a system of canon +law. The foundation of canon law being +laid, its development upon the manumission +of the Church was rapid.10 +

+ +

+8. Persecutions, Defenses.—During the +religious persecutions the Christians almost +had law forced into them by surgical operations. +[pg 016] +The necessity for their making defenses +in the Roman tribunals induced many +of them to give Roman law a careful study. +Also, the great number of Christians held +for trial on all sorts of accusations made +that branch of the law of the realm very +lucrative for lawyers, and called into the +field many Christians. Incidently, men +studying for the priesthood made a study +of Roman law with a view to avoiding its +machinations and continuing their functions +as clergymen without being caught in the +net of persecution.11 +

+ +

+9. Constantine, Blending the Law.—When +Emperor Constantine became a +Christian (325 A.D.), there was a great +change, and the members of the bar and +judges were mostly Christians. It then became +necessary for students of law to study +the principles of divine right as taught in +the Church, and while the books of the civil +law were read by students for the priesthood, +the Scriptures and the works of the +Fathers were read by the students in law, +thus blending the law of the two realms to +some extent.12 +

+ +

+10. “Benefit of the Clergy,” Ecclesiastical +Court.—As the old Roman Empire decayed +[pg 017] +and its power waned, the new one, +“The Holy Roman Empire,” gradually implanted +itself in southwestern Europe. The +humiliation that the divine law and the +clergy suffered in being brought into the +common courts gave rise to a system of +courts within the Church for the purpose of +enforcing her morals, doctrines, and discipline. +Those courts were established in all +Christian countries and had jurisdiction of +all felonies excepting arson, treason, and a +few other crimes that from time to time +were put under the special jurisdiction of +the state courts. Whenever a clergyman +was arrested for a crime, he pleaded the +“benefit of the clergy,” and his case was +transferred from the state court to the +ecclesiastical court. Also, when a clergyman +was convicted in the state court of any +crime for which the punishment was death, +he could plead the “benefit of the clergy,” +which was a protection against his execution.13 +

+ +

+11. Estates, Guardianship.—Besides the +jurisdiction already referred to, the ecclesiastical +court had jurisdiction over the settlement +of estates and the guardianship of +[pg 018] +children, which varied in different countries +and was very indefinite in some of +them.14 +

+ +

+12. Middle Ages, Common Law.—During +the Middle Ages there was a constant +effort on behalf of the ecclesiastical courts +to extend their jurisdiction, and a counter-effort +on behalf of the state courts to assume +jurisdiction of cases under the ecclesiastical +law. In England, from the conquest of +William the Conqueror to the Reformation, +the extension of the jurisdiction of the +ecclesiastical courts brought the new element +of English common law into the canon +law; and much of the canon law, following +the jurisdiction assumed by the state courts, +became the common law of the kingdom of +England.15 +

+ +

+13. Gratian, Reformation.—The canon +law reached its full development in the +twelfth century, when Gratian, the Blackstone +of his age, compiled the system, but +it subsequently lost its influence when the +Reformation prevailed.16 +

+ +[pg 019] + +

+14. Bologna.—The great school of jurisprudence, +both of canon and civil law, was +located at Bologna, Italy, which reached its +zenith in the thirteenth century. To it students +flocked from Western Europe, and +from it were obtained the professors of law +in the universities of England and other +countries.17 +

+ +

+15. Church and State.—In most of the +Christian countries, the Church and State +were united, and many of the judges in the +civil courts were clergymen.18 +

+ +

+16. England, Roman Law.—On account +of England's being subject to Rome in its +earliest age, and afterward because of its +being conquered by France, the Roman law +was pretty thoroughly intermixed with the +native English law in the minor matters of +the people, and governed in the more important +ones.19 +

+ +

+17. America, English Law, Civil Law.—The +portions of America that were settled +by the English, which included the original +thirteen colonies, were under the English +law. In Virginia the Episcopal Church, +which was then the church of England, was +made the church of state. Canada and +that portion of the United States formerly +[pg 020] +known as Louisiana were governed by the +civil law of France. Wherever the French +government had no authority or civil officers, +the government was directly under the missionaries +of the Church.20 +

+ +

+18. Religious Tolerance, Established +Church.—The English law and English +ideals prevailing in the original thirteen colonies,21 +there was a strong effort made by +many of the delegates to the constitutional +convention to have the Episcopal Church +made the established church of the new republic. +Thomas Jefferson and James Madison +were probably the strongest opponents +of the scheme, and outside of the great Carroll +of Carrollton, they were the most earnest +advocates of religious tolerance. The necessity +for the fathers of this republic to be +united, and their being unable to unite upon +any church, caused the idea of an established +church to be eliminated. Thus was established +in our republic the freedom of conscience +and the guarantee that no one shall +be persecuted on account of his religious +convictions.22 +

+ +[pg 021] + +

+19. Tribunals.—The ecclesiastical courts +as a part of the state system and the “benefit +of the clergy,” have been abolished in England +and America. However, as we shall +see further on, tribunals in the nature of the +ecclesiastical court exist in churches and +fraternities of all kinds in the United +States.23 +

+ +
+ +[pg 022] + +
+ + +

Chapter II. What Is A Church?

+ +

+20. Church, Religious Society.—Bouvier's +definition of “Church” is: “A society +of persons who profess the Christian religion.” +Chief Justice Shaw's definition is: +“The church is neither a corporation nor a +quasi-corporation, but a body of persons +associated together for certain objects under +the law. An aggregate body of individuals +associated together in connection with a religious +society. The term religious society +may with propriety be applied in a certain +sense to a church as that of religious association, +religious union, or the like; yet in +the sense church was and is used in our law, +it is synonymous with parish or precinct and +designates an incorporated society created +and maintained for the support and maintenance +of public worship. In this, its legal +sense, a church is not a religious society. It +is a separate body formed within such parish +or religious society whose rights and usages +are well known and to a great extent defined +and established by law.”24 +

+ +[pg 023] + +

+21. Doctrine, Constitution.—A church +in law is a mere fraternal organization. It +may or may not have a written constitution, +but it must have some central doctrine as its +foundation or constitution.25 Many of the +Protestant denominations claim that the +entire Bible is their constitution. The Jews +may be said to consider the Old Testament +as their constitution. All revealed truths +may be said to be the constitution of the +Catholic Church,26 and when a doctrine concerning +faith or morals is authoritatively +declared by the Church to be a truth, it +becomes a dogma.27 The Apostles' Creed is +an example of several dogmatic truths. The +code of the Church is the Ten Commandments. +A few sects, by a majority vote, +make and change their constitutions at will. +

+ +

+22. By-Laws.—By-laws of the different +religious organizations differ widely, from +the decrees of the great councils of the +Catholic Church down to the vote of the +congregation of an independent denomination. +

+ +

+23. Church, Religious Society.—A +church in one sense is more limited than a +religious society; the latter comprehending +[pg 024] +all the members of the same faith. Even in +the Catholic Church we hear of the Church +of France, the Coptic Church, etc., spoken +of in this sense. And in a still more limited +sense we use the word as a synonym for +parish. However, when the word “the” is +used before church written with a capital +letter, Catholics understand it to apply to +the Roman Catholic Church in its entirety, +while some non-Catholics apply it to Christendom. +

+ +

+24. Church, Christians, Religion.—The +missions established in California prior to +its admission into the Union were, in law, +practically independent organizations and +had no legal connection with the Church. +Every society organized for the purpose of +propagating the practice of religion may be +a church in law.28 The courts have made a +distinction between Unitarians, who are +considered Christians, and Deists, Theists, +Free Religionists, and other infidels.29 A +sect or denomination without a given system +of faith is not recognized as a religion in +law.30 +

+ +

+25. Doctrine, Standard.—To ascertain +the tenets and doctrines of a church, resort +[pg 025] +must be had to history and to prior and contemporary +standard writings of its members +on theology.31 +

+ +

+26. Ecclesiastical Corporations, Religious, +Quasi-public Corporations.—Ecclesiastical +corporations, in the sense in which +the word is used in England, Germany, and +France, are unknown to the United States, +their places being supplied by religious societies +or corporations considered as private +bodies, in contradistinction to public or +quasi-public corporations, such as towns, +villages, cities, counties, and state. Therefore, +the law of private corporations applies +to religious societies and churches. +

+ +

+27. Sect, Sectarianism.—The Supreme +Court of Nevada defines “sect” as follows: +“A religious sect is a body or number of +persons united in tenets, but constituting a +distinct organization or party, by holding +sentiments or doctrines different from those +of other sects or people. In the sense intended +in the constitution, every sect of that +character is ‘sectarian’ and all members +thereof are sectarians.”32 In Pennsylvania +the court adopted the definitions given in +the Standard and in Webster's +[pg 026] +dictionaries.33 The Supreme Court of Missouri, +citing Webster's and the Century dictionaries, +gave the following additional definition +of sectarianism: “Sectarianism includes +adherence to a distinct political party, +as much as to a separate sect.”34 The Presbyterians35 +and the “Shakers”36 have been +adjudged sects. +

+ +

+ +28. Sectarian.—“Sectarian” has received +more contradictory constructions +than any other equally simple word in the +English language. In Wisconsin the “King +James” Bible was held to be a sectarian +book;37 but in Kentucky it was held that +neither the Douay nor the “King James” +Bible was a sectarian book.38 The Missouri +court extended sectarian so as to apply to +the Republican party.39 In Illinois an industrial +school for girls in which the Catholic +Sisters were employed as teachers, was held +a sectarian institution;40 while in Wisconsin, +[pg 027] +the “Wisconsin Industrial School for Girls,” +a private corporation organized and conducted +by Protestant ladies, has received +appropriations from the State and has had +its reports published at state's expense, as a +non-sectarian institution.41 In New York +the religious garb of the Catholic Sisters +was practically decided to be sectarian;42 but +in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin it was decided +that the dress of the Sisters was not +sectarian.43 +

+ +

+29. Worship, Services, Mass.—Any act +of adoration, reverence, praise, thanks, +honor, or veneration given to God, is religious +worship.44 A Sunday-school where the +Bible was read and a hymn sung and a state +temperance camp-meeting where a prayer +was said and hymns were sung, were held to +be places of divine worship.45 But a priest's +house where he had a room fitted up for a +[pg 028] +chapel, was held to be not a place of worship.46 +It is very difficult to draw a line—no matter +what curves you may give it—between the +Protestant system of worship, which consists +of the reading of the Bible, the singing +of hymns, and the reciting of prayers, and +such services in the public schools. Also, +there would seem to be no legal difference +between a prayer said or a hymn sung by a +Catholic and a Protestant. As we have no +established church in this country, we have +no standard for prayers, hymns, or music.47 +

+ +

+More solemn and impressive than her +prayers adapted for schools is the Mass of +the Catholic Church, defined thus: “The +Mass is the unbloody sacrifice of the body +and blood of Christ.”48 It is defined in 26 +Cyc, 940, as follows: “A religious ceremonial +or observance of the Catholic +Church;49 a Catholic ceremonial celebrated +by the priest in open church, where all who +choose may be present and participate +therein;50 the sacrifice in the sacrament of +[pg 029] +the Eucharist or the consecration and oblation +of the Host.”51 +

+ +

+30. Parish.—A parish has two meanings. +In some States it is a minor division +of public territory; but in States where there +is no such division of territory, the State +using instead “county” or “town,” a parish +rather applies to the people belonging to a +particular church, who worship at a particular +place. It is in the latter sense in +which a parish should be construed in church +law.52 +

+ +

+Parishioner.—A parishioner must be defined +in harmony with the meaning of the +word “parish.”53 +

+ +

+31. Clergyman.—A clergyman is a man +in holy orders or one who has been ordained +in accordance with the rules of his church +or denomination.54 +

+ +

+32. Minister.—A minister is one who +acts as, or performs some of the functions +of, a clergyman.55 +

+ +

+33. Rector or Pastor.—A rector or +pastor is a clergyman who has charge of a +parish.56 +

+ +[pg 030] + +

+34. Religion.—Religion is still further +distinguished, but not very satisfactorily defined, +for the reason that etymologists have +not agreed upon the derivation of the word. +When the matter was brought before our +courts and it became necessary to give a +definition, the highest court in our country +gave the following: “The term ‘religion’ +has reference to one's views of his relations +to his Creator, and to the obligations they +impose of reverence for His being and character, +and of obedience to His will. It is +often confounded with cultus or form of +worship of a particular sect, but it is distinguishable +from the latter.”57 One of our +highest courts held that “religion,” as used +in the trust provision in a will for the purchase +and distribution of religious books or +reading as they shall be deemed best, means +“Christian.”58 But the Supreme Court of +another State held that “religion” is not +equivalent to “Christian” religion, but +means the religion of any class of men.59 +Judge Willis defines “religion” thus: “It is +what a man honestly believes in and approves +of and thinks it his duty to inculcate +[pg 031] +on others whether with regard to this world +or the next; a belief in any system of retribution +by an overruling power. It must, I +think, include the principle of gratitude to +an active power who can confer blessings.”60 +

+ +
+ +[pg 032] + +
+ + +

Chapter III. Constitutional Law

+ +

+35. Religious Tests.—The constitution +of the United States provides that “no religious +test shall ever be required as a qualification +to any office or public trust under +the United States.”61 +

+ +

+36. Test Oath, Attainder.—No test oath +of any kind, whether religious or otherwise, +can be required of a citizen of the United +States. Therefore the test oath of Congress +requiring an officer to swear that he never +voluntarily bore arms against the United +States, was held unconstitutional. Exclusion +from any vocation on account of past conduct +is punishment and contrary to the constitution +on the subject of bills of attainder.62 +But there is a limitation to this rule to prevent +the open violation of the laws of the +United States or any State under the cloak +of religion.63 +

+ +

+37. Establishment of Religion, Free Exercise.—The +first amendment to the United +[pg 033] +States constitution provides that “Congress +shall make no law respecting an establishment +of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise +thereof.” +

+ +

+38. Sovereignty, States, Bigamy.—The +courts have held that this provision applies +to Congress only, and can not be construed +to interfere with the sovereignty of the several +States; that the constitutional guarantee +of religious freedom was not intended to prohibit +legislation against polygamy; and that +section 5352 of the United States Revised +Statutes against bigamy, is constitutional. +Also, that on a trial for bigamy in Utah, a +man who was living in polygamy was not +competent to serve as a juror.64 +

+ +

+39. Church of the Latter-Day Saints.—In +1851 the assembly of the so-called State +of Deseret, which subsequently became the +territory of Utah, incorporated “the Church +of the Latter-Day Saints.” In 1887 Congress +repealed the act of incorporation and +abrogated the charter, which the Supreme +Court held was within its plenary powers. +The pretense of religious belief can not deprive +Congress of the power to prohibit +polygamy and all other open offenses against +the enlightened sentiments of mankind.65 +

+ +[pg 034] + +

+40. Crime, Religion.—The law prohibiting +any person who is a polygamist or +bigamist, or who teaches, advises, counsels, +or encourages the same, from holding any +office of honor, trust, or profit, is constitutional; +and a crime is none the less so, nor +less odious, because it is sanctioned by what +any particular sect may designate as religion. +A state has the right to legislate for the punishment +of all acts inimical to the peace, good +order, and morals of society.66 +

+ +

+41. Donation, Hostile, Religion.—On +the other hand the United States Supreme +Court declared the legal right of donees of a +college to make as a condition of the donation +that all ecclesiastics, missionaries, and +ministers of any sort, should be excluded +from holding any station of duty in the college +or even visiting the same. The condition +being only negatively derogatory and +hostile to the Christian religion, did not +make the devise for the foundation of the +college void.67 +

+ +

+42. Christian Scientist.—A law requiring +a person to be a physician to treat the +sick, is constitutional; and the defense of a +person who has no license to practise, that +he is a Christian Scientist, is not good. Also, +[pg 035] +a parent must furnish a doctor for his sick +child, notwithstanding that he believes in +prayer cure.68 +

+ +

+43. Protestant.—In the early days, under +the constitution of the State, the courts +of Massachusetts practically held that the +Protestant religion was the religion of that +State.69 Also, the constitution of New +Hampshire referred to different Christians, +and the court in construing the terms “Roman +Catholic” and “Protestant,” held that +any one who did not assent to the truth of +Christianity as a distinct system of religion, +could not be classed as either. The court +stated that Mohammedans, Jews, pagans, +and infidels, are neither “Catholics” nor +“Protestants.” The term “Protestant,” as +used in the constitution of New Hampshire, +includes all Christians who deny the authority +of the Pope of Rome. When the children +of Protestant parents renounce that religion, +and voluntarily accept another, they +cease to be Protestants.70 At present under +the constitution of New Hampshire, the legislature +may authorize towns or parishes to +[pg 036] +provide for the support of Protestant ministers.71 +

+ +

+44. Hospitals, Sisters, Appropriation.—In +1864, Providence Hospital, of Washington, +was incorporated by an act of Congress, +for general hospital purposes. In 1897, +$30,000 was appropriated for the District of +Columbia to put up two isolation buildings +in connection with two hospitals in that city, +to be operated as a part of such hospitals. +Providence Hospital was selected as one, and +because it was in charge of Sisters of the +Roman Catholic Church, the right of Congress +to make the appropriation was disputed. +Among other things, Judge Peackham +says: “Whether the individuals who +compose the corporation under its charter +happen to be all Roman Catholics, or all +Methodists, or all Presbyterians, or Unitarians, +or members of any other religious +organization, or of no organization at all, is +of not the slightest consequence with reference +to the law of its corporation, nor can +the individual beliefs upon religious matters +of the various incorporators be inquired +into.” The appropriation was “for two hospital +buildings to be constructed in the discretion +of the commissioners of the District +of Columbia on the grounds of two hospitals +[pg 037] +and to be operated as a part of such hospitals.”72 +

+ +

+45. Constitution, Rights.—The provisions +in the constitution do not in any way interfere +with property rights obtained by a +church organization prior to its adoption.73 +

+ +

+46. Aid, Contracts.—Under the constitution +of the United States, Congress cannot +make appropriations for nor give aid to any +denomination. Also, similar provisions are +in many of the constitutions of the States. +However, many cases arise out of contracts +which border upon these various rules, and +in some States the constitutional provision of +the State is such that the State Legislature +may legislate concerning religion and give +certain aid and support thereto. Paying rent +to a congregation for a school-room is not +an appropriation or aid to a church contrary +to the constitution.74 +

+ +

+47. Protestant Teacher, Tax.—Formerly +every parish in Massachusetts was obliged +to elect and support a Protestant teacher, +and might erect churches and parsonages. +To provide the expenses thereof, a tax +[pg 038] +might be assessed upon the polls of the +inhabitants.75 Until 1890 New Hampshire +permitted a tax to be levied in towns for religious +purposes. It is still legal under the +New Hampshire constitution to tax the inhabitants +for the purpose of supporting +Protestant teachers, but not to support a +teacher of any other denomination.76 A section +of land in every township in Ohio was +set apart for religious societies, in which +they all shared equally.77 Vermont had a +similar provision.78 +

+ +

+48. Office, God.—The constitutions of +Arkansas, Mississippi, North Carolina, +South Carolina, and Texas, prohibit a man +from holding office who denies the existence +of a Supreme Being; and the constitutions +of Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, and Tennessee, +make all clergymen ineligible to hold +a civil office.79 +

+ +

+49. Religious Liberty, Bible, Religious +Garb, Wages.—The authorities are not uniform +as to what constitutes a violation of religious +liberty. The question of whether +the reading of the Bible in the public schools +is a violation of the constitution, is an open +[pg 039] +one in some States and in others the courts +have passed upon it, some holding that it is +a violation of the constitution,80 and some +holding that it is not.81 The weight of authority +seems to permit the reading of the +“King James” Bible,82 and where portions +only are read, as in “reading books” prepared +for school work, or where the children +are not obliged to be present during the exercises, +the cases seem to be unanimous that +it is not a violation of the constitution.83 In +Pennsylvania the court held that while Sisters +in their religious garb might be teachers +in the public schools, they could not give instruction +in the Catholic religion at the +schoolhouse before or after school hours, or +at any other time use the school building for +religious purposes. Also, in Wisconsin the +court decided that while a portion of a parochial +school building might be leased for +public school purposes and the Sisters be employed +therein as teachers, religious exercises +and instructions could not be given in +[pg 040] +such leased premises.84 In New York it +was held not only that Sisters could not wear +their religious garb or pray in school, but +that they could not collect wages for teaching.85 +

+ +
+ +[pg 041] + +
+ + +

Chapter IV. Statutory Law

+ +

+50. Wisconsin, Mississippi, New York.—The +statutory law of the different States +of the Union is so varied and the laws of +one State are of so little interest to the people +of another that it would be almost useless +and beyond the boundaries of this work to +give the substance of the various statutes. +In some States there is a limitation upon the +real estate that a church or charitable organization +may hold, and in other States +there is no limitation whatever. Wisconsin, +perhaps, occupies the extreme of greatest +liberality, by not only allowing full freedom +in everything relating to religion and charity, +but it further excepts from the limitation +all rights of alienation of real estate granted +or devised to a charitable association or to +literary or charitable corporations organized +under the law of the State. The State of +Mississippi probably stands at the other extreme +both in the narrowness of its constitution +and statutory law, and prohibits any +[pg 042] +devise or bequest of any personal property +or real estate in favor of any religious or +ecclesiastical corporation or any religious or +ecclesiastical society. Neither does it exempt +a clergyman, physician, or lawyer, +from examination as a witness concerning +information that he obtained in the performance +of his functions or duties as such. Its +judges, however, are more liberal than its +legislators, and I know of no instance in +which a clergyman, physician, or lawyer, as +a witness, was sent to jail for contempt of +court for not divulging information obtained +in his professional capacity. Probably +New York has the most complete code86 +relating to religious corporations. +

+ +

+51. Real Estate, Parish, Diocese, Taxation.—It +is very important that a congregation +about to purchase real estate should examine +and understand the statutory law of +the State governing the powers and authority +of the Church as a civil organization. In +some States there is no special law for incorporating +religious societies; while in most +States there are special provisions therefor. +For this reason, I emphasize the fact that no +parish or clergyman is justified in organizing +a congregation or purchasing land without +first knowing the law of that particular +[pg 043] +State. But generally it is best that each congregation +be incorporated and that its property +be held in the name of the corporation, +so that the debts of one corporation will not +embarrass the diocese, and that bequests and +gifts made to a church may be enforced in +the courts. The proceedings to incorporate +are fully stated in the statutes of each State. +One of the things of the utmost importance +is that any notice to be given must be given +strictly as required by law.87 Another is to +incorporate in the way that avoids taxation.88 +

+ +

+52. Riot, Damages.—Under a statute +providing that a person whose property is +destroyed by riot may bring suit against the +county for damages, a corporation for religious +purposes, as well as an individual, has +a right of action.89 +

+ +

+53. Use, Change, Parsonage, Discipline, +Doctrine, Curate.—When a fee simple is +acquired by a religious corporation, without +restriction as to quantity, but limiting the +purpose of its use, a subsequent Legislature, +with the consent of the corporation, has +power to change or abrogate altogether the +restrictions as to the use of the land.90 And +[pg 044] +the Legislature may empower the church +corporation to convey a house devised to it +for a parsonage with a condition that it be +kept in repair, and invest the proceeds in +other property to be held for the same purpose.91 +A State legislature can not interfere +in church discipline and doctrine, as by legislating +what shall constitute a curate in the +Catholic Church.92 +

+ +
+ +[pg 045] + +
+ + +

Chapter V. Unincorporated Church Societies

+ +

+54. Partners, Debt, Liability.—Where +several go into an undertaking without first +being incorporated they are usually liable as +partners, each one being responsible for the +whole debt. In some States the same liability +exists where an attempt has been made +to incorporate, but there was a failure to +comply fully with the law.93 There is some +authority freeing the individual members of +a religious society from liability for the +debts of such society,94 and holding that an +agent of such society could not bind the society +in their associated capacity by a promissory +note,95 but the rule is that the members +of an unincorporated society who actively +incur lawful debts or ratify them after their +creation are personally liable. There are +exceptions to this rule by statute or decisions +[pg 046] +in a few States.96 Also, the law of personal +liability is settled in England.97 +

+ +

+55. Pastor, Salary.—In a late case in +Wisconsin where a pastor had a contract +with his congregation as to his salary, after +the clergyman's death his heirs recovered +the unpaid part of his salary in an action +against a few of the individual members of +the congregation.98 +

+ +

+56. Building, Materials.—The members +of the building committee of an unincorporated +church are liable for materials purchased +by them for the church, notwithstanding +that the seller charged the materials +in the name of the church, and that +at the time that the purchase was made, he +was told that the money for payment was +to be raised by subscription among the congregation.99 +

+ +

+57. Management, Disability.—An unincorporated +society is managed by those who +are competent to transact their own business. +Therefore, it would seem that members +must be men over twenty-one years of +age, and not under legal disability. The +[pg 047] +minor sons in a family who have continued +their attendance at the religious services +until of full age, are considered members.100 +

+ +

+58. Shakers, Sect, Catholic Church, +Trustees, Funds.—Although the sect called +Shakers is not incorporated, yet it has been +allowed to take and hold property for church +purposes.101 In Massachusetts, by statute, a +sect may take and hold property for religious +purposes without incorporation.102 The +Roman Catholic Church is a recognized public +corporation by most nations, including +the United States.103 No individual member +of any such body has any title to the lands +it holds, but the lands are the property of +the society in its aggregate capacity.104 After +property has been acquired, the trustees +have no right to distribute it among the +members, as such power could not be conferred +upon them by a majority vote even +when approved by an order of the court. +The contributors did not intend their funds +to be so disposed of, and if they failed to +attain the use intended, they must be returned +[pg 048] +to the donors, and if not called for, +would escheat to the state.105 Where an unincorporated +society has purchased property +and taken the title thereto in the name of +one of its members, when it subsequently +incorporates such member may be required +to execute a conveyance to the corporation.106 +

+ +

+59. Contract, Binding.—Persons forming +a religious society may make a contract +for the support of its minister by a majority +vote.107 When such unincorporated society +by a majority vote enters into a contract or +compromises a suit, it is binding upon the +minority.108 +

+ +

+60. Court, Trust.—Any member of an +unincorporated society may go into a court +of equity on behalf of himself and others to +enforce the execution of a trust in favor of +the society.109 +

+ +

+61. Societies, Membership, Forfeiture.—Voluntary +religious societies when not restricted +by their charters or articles of association, +may make by-laws declaring what +shall constitute membership and what shall +[pg 049] +operate as a forfeiture thereof, applicable +to existing as well as to future members. +Where money is voted to be raised by an +assessment to be made at a subsequent +period, a person who was a member of the +religious society at the time that such vote +was passed, but withdraws before the time +of assessment, is not liable to taxation.110 +

+ +
+ +[pg 050] + +
+ + +

Chapter VI. Incorporated Religious Societies

+ +

+62. Special Law, General Laws.—In +most of the States there is a special law +under which congregations may be incorporated. +New York is a good example.111 +Where such law does not exist, the congregation +may be incorporated under the general +laws. For business reasons each congregation +should be incorporated.112 +

+ +

+63. Officers, Discipline, Property.—When +a church society incorporates it becomes +a private corporation, and the officers +are bound to manage the property in the +most upright and careful manner according +to the discipline of the church.113 When a +parish incorporates, the title to the parish +property vests in the corporation, to which +trustees may be compelled to convey it.114 +

+ +

+64. Incorporation, Evidence.—The certificate +of incorporation or charter of a religious +society or a certified copy thereof +[pg 051] +from the public record, is the proper evidence +thereof.115 Secondary evidence and +evidence aliunde may be competent in some +forums.116 In most States if incorporation is +alleged in the complaint, it need not be +proved unless denied by an affidavit or a +verified answer. +

+ +

+65. Congregation, Members.—The act +of incorporation applies only to the particular +congregation petitioning for it and does +not extend to other churches, even though +they are a subsequent growth within the +same territory.117 Incorporation once established +is presumed to continue.118 When a +new religious society is formed and incorporated, +consisting of individuals from existing +parishes, the members of the new society +from the time of its incorporation cease +to be members of the respective parishes +to which they had belonged.119 +

+ +

+66. Temporal Affairs, Management.—A +majority of a religious corporation at a regularly +called meeting may, by a vote taken, +bind the minority in all temporal affairs.120 +The character of membership in the religious +corporation may be very different from +[pg 052] +that of membership in the church.121 The +fact that a member has been declared out of +the church by an ecclesiastical tribunal, may +not affect his rights in the management of +the temporal concerns of the corporation.122 +

+ +

+67. Corporators, Change.—In isolated +cases here and there it has been held that a +majority of the corporators of a religious +society has the right to change the form of +church government, as from the Congregational +Church to an organization in connection +with the Presbyterian Church.123 But +it is a general rule that a majority of the +congregation can act only consistently with +the particular and general laws of the +church organization, but not in violation of +them.124 +

+ +

+68. Constitution, Subsequent Laws.—An +ecclesiastical society formed before the +adoption of the state constitution is not by +that constitution and subsequent laws concerning +religious societies divested of its +legal character.125 +

+ +

+69. Name, Change.—The name of an +ecclesiastical corporation is arbitrary and a +[pg 053] +change or alteration in its name does not +affect its identity.126 A charter will not be +granted to a church with a name so like another +church in the same State, that one may +be taken for the other.127 +

+ +

+70. Church, Regular.—In church organizations +those who adhere to the regular +order of the church, legal and general, +though a minority, are the true congregation +and constitute the corporation if incorporated.128 +

+ +

+71. Notice, Legal.—All the proceedings +of a corporation, including notice, must be +in accordance with the constitution and by-laws, +and no business transacted contrary +thereto is legal.129 +

+ +

+72. Control, Secede, Vested Rights.—The +officers of a church corporation have +control of the business management for all +civil purposes, excepting as otherwise provided +by the articles of organization, charter, +or by-laws of the corporation. However, +the by-laws must not contravene the +laws of the State.130 A charter was refused +in Pennsylvania which provided that the +[pg 054] +congregation might, by a majority vote, dissolve +or secede from the central body and +divide the property.131 A charter of incorporation +may be amended in harmony with +the principles, discipline, and objects of the +church, but not otherwise.132 The fact that +incorporation of a church confers certain +rights and privileges under the charter, such +charter being accepted, does not give the +church corporation any vested rights.133 +

+ +

+73. Consolidation, Control, Dissolution.—So +far as the State law is concerned, two +different denominations may form one corporation;134 +or two or more congregations +of the same organization may form one corporation.135 +Where such consolidation is attempted, +the new organization must have +control of all the property.136 So long as different +congregations attempting to consolidate +retain their respective identities, they do +not form a single corporation.137 It is a general +rule that a corporation may be dissolved +by taking the steps required by law. As +there are various statutory provisions in the +[pg 055] +different States, each case had best be attended +to by an attorney. In some States +there is a provision that where a corporation +fails to carry out its functions for a stated +time, it thereby becomes dissolved. The +omission of a parish for one year to elect +officers, does not necessarily operate as a dissolution +under such statute. In case of dissolution +under a statute of that kind, the +property of the church is not forfeited to the +State.138 +

+ +

+74. Debt, Limited.—The amount of debt +which the trustees of a religious society may +be authorized to create, may be limited by its +constitution.139 +

+ +

+75. Conditions, Effect.—Where $1,000 +was given defendants to erect and maintain +forever a Lutheran church and prohibiting +the grantee from alienating or disposing of +or otherwise changing or encumbering the +land by deed, a mortgage given to secure a +legitimate debt was held valid, as the legal +title was in the corporation and a court of +equity could not refuse to enforce the mortgage +for the payment of an honest debt +under color of protecting a charitable use.140 +But property given a congregation for the +[pg 056] +maintenance of a church that becomes dissolved, +reverts to the heirs as a resulting +trust.141 A corporation that has been authorized +to purchase land may execute a mortgage +for the purchase money or a part of it +without further authority.142 Where by an +ancient agreement a meeting-house was to +remain in a particular place, a vote of the +congregation will not justify pulling it +down, and an action of trespass will lie for +razing it and damages will be given for the +value of the building.143 +

+ +

+76. Suits, Parties.—When a church is +incorporated, it should be sued in its corporate +name; but when the bishop of the +Catholic church holds the legal title to the +land in litigation, he should be made a +party.144 And if there are two sets of officers +contending for control, service of the papers +upon the intruders may not be sufficient. The +safer practice is to serve upon both.145 A +suit by the trustees of a religious society to +restrain other parties claiming to be trustees +from interfering in the management and +control of the society property, is properly +[pg 057] +brought in the corporate name of the trustees +and not in the name of the State.146 +

+ +

+77. Incorporation, Sufficient.—Where +the articles of incorporation were drawn and +signed in the form required by law, excepting +as to the acknowledgment, and were recorded, +and the corporation organized in +good faith, it became a de facto corporation +and was sufficient to entitle it to sue to prevent +certain members from perverting the +use of its property.147 +

+ +

+78. Dissolution, Fund.—The corporation +of a congregation can not by seceding and +a majority vote dissolve the corporation +where it is a part of a superior body.148 But +the courts have plenary powers over corporations +under the United States jurisdiction, +such as territories, and may dissolve a corporation.149 +The fact that the dissolution is +contrary to, or authorized by church discipline, +makes no difference as to granting the +dissolution, as such discipline can not supersede +the state law.150 On dissolution of a religious +corporation, the surplus fund derived +from a legacy should be disposed of in +the manner the court believes to be most in +[pg 058] +harmony with the will of the contributors to +the fund, could they have foreseen the +event.151 +

+ +

+79. Reorganization.—A church corporation +may reorganize and be reinstated into +all rights that it formerly had.152 The steps +to be taken to reorganize are usually provided +by statute and should be closely followed. +Upon the reorganization, the old +corporation becomes terminated.153 +

+ +

+80. Meetings, Majority, Quorum.—In +corporate meetings, meetings of boards, and +meetings of committees duly called, a majority +vote of those present determines the +action of the body. If the membership is indefinite, +those who attend such meeting constitute +a quorum; but if the membership is +definite, it requires a majority of the voting +members to constitute a quorum, unless the +law of the State or the constitution (articles +of organization) or by-laws provide a different +number.154 +

+ +
+ +[pg 059] + +
+ + +

Chapter VII. Superior Authority

+ +

+81. Protestant, Ministers, Bishop.—In +most church organizations the authority is +divided into superior and inferior. In countries +where there is an established Protestant +church, the superior authority is first +in the king and queen and secondly in the +bishops. The inferior authority is in the +ministers and secular officers of the church. +Where there is no established church, the +synod or bishop is the superior authority. +Thus decisions of our courts usually apply +to all churches alike. +

+ +

+82. Roman Catholic Church, Pope, Bishops, +Delegated.—In the Roman Catholic +Church the superior authority is first in the +Pope and secondly in the other bishops. +This superior authority is graded and some +of it may be delegated, as in case of a Papal +delegate. But the general rule that delegated +authority can not be again delegated +by the delegate without special authority +applies to church matters. +

+ +[pg 060] + +

+83. Bishop, Discipline, Clergy.—Within +his diocese the bishop is the executive officer, +the legislature, and the judiciary; but he is +subject to the superior authority of the +Church. The bishop may make laws for his +diocese, subject to the limitation of the general +doctrine and discipline of the Church. +He has original jurisdiction of all causes +arising in his diocese, and may decide them +in the first instance and inflict such penalties, +suspension, or excommunication, in accordance +with the canons of the Church, as +he deems fit. The clergy are subject to his +orders and discipline according to the canon +law. However, without special contract, the +bishop is not civilly liable for the salary of +a priest under him, either while he is actually +in the line of his assigned duties or while +waiting to be assigned.155 +

+ +

+84. Local, Secular Matters.—There is +still another division of superior and inferior +authority: the local corporation or +congregation has nothing whatever to do +with the doctrinal or disciplinary functions +of the Church; but has only such powers +and authority with regard to secular matters +as is provided by the laws of the State +or conferred by the articles of organization, +[pg 061] +charter, and by-laws. Also, unless there is +some other rule to the contrary, only the +male members who are over twenty-one +years of age, have a voice and vote in such +corporation.156 +

+ +

+85. Unincorporated, Authority.—When +a church is not incorporated, all its elections +and proceedings, so far as they are not contrary +to the laws of the State, must be in +accordance with the rules and regulations +of the Church; and the rule that the inferior +authority must give way to the superior +authority in all matters within the limitations +of the constitution and laws of the +organization, prevails.157 However, courts +are not always clear on the last part of this +rule.158 +

+ +

+86. Tribunal, Action, Appeal.—When +any question arises and is being adjudicated +in the tribunal of the church organization, +either as an original action or on appeal, the +State court will not interfere so long as the +proceedings are in accordance with the rules +and regulations of the church, unless some +vested right to property is in question or +[pg 062] +some one's right as a citizen of the State or +of the United States is being infringed.159 +

+ +

+87. Spiritual Authority, Excommunication.—Neither +the Pope nor the bishop has +any but spiritual authority within the State.160 +The law of this country considers excommunication +as expelling from membership; +but does not tolerate interference with civil +or property rights of citizens. Therefore, +major excommunication non tolerati, is unlawful +in the United States.161 However, a +bishop is not liable for any expression of +his opinion as to the extent of his episcopal +authority nor for any act of omission in the +exercise of his spiritual functions.162 The +civil courts will not go behind a church +authority to inquire as to excommunication, +but may examine as to the competency of +the tribunal according to the laws of the +denomination.163 +

+ +

+88. Constitution, Limited, Decisions.—A +written constitution is not necessary to +prove the connection between a subordinate +and superior ecclesiastical body; but it will +be inferred from the circumstances of the +[pg 063] +case.164 The superior may dissolve or reorganize +an inferior body as a congregation.165 +In fact the superior authority, in religious +matters, is plenary, excepting as limited by +the laws of the State and the constitution of +the Church.166 The decisions of the ecclesiastical +tribunals in all cases on doctrine, +order, and discipline, are conclusive in the +state courts.167 +

+ +
+ +[pg 064] + +
+ + +

Chapter VIII. Inferior Authority

+ +

+89. Priesthood, Discipline.—The inferior +authority in the Church may be said to be +in the priesthood, whose rights and duties +are fixed by the canon law, but who are still +further subject to the reasonable diocesan +rules made by the bishop. The disciplinary +relation of a priest to his bishop is substantially +the same as that of a captain to his +colonel, and implicit obedience in accordance +with the discipline of the Church may be +strictly enforced by the bishop in so far as +it relates to ecclesiastical matters, including +doctrine and discipline, in which the priest +can not resort to the courts of the State, but +must submit to the tribunals of the church.168 +

+ +

+90. Congregation, Insubordinate, Discipline.—The +male members of a congregation +are invested with no visitorial or controling +power, but only such authority as is +given under the laws of incorporation.169 +[pg 065] +Where an inferior organization, as a congregation, +refuses to receive a clergyman +appointed by the bishop, it is an act of insubordination +to the ecclesiastical authority +of the Church and in violation of its discipline, +which authorizes the issuing of a peremptory +mandamus commanding them to +admit the clergyman.170 +

+ +

+91. Pastor, Parish, Relation.—When a +clergyman's connection with a church had +been duly dissolved, he ceased to be pastor +of the church and an arrangement with the +parish to retain his relation as pastor of +such church was nugatory and void.171 +

+ +

+92. Clergymen, Citizens.—Clergymen residing +in an incorporated town are not exempt +from the performance of any duties +required of citizens, unless such exemption +is given by statute.172 +

+ +

+93. Doctrine and Discipline, Authority.—In +all matters concerning doctrine and +discipline of the Church, the inferior authority, +such as ministers, priests, and deacons, +as well as the congregation, must +submit to the decision of the higher authority, +whether bishop, synod, or council.173 +

+94. Sect, Suit, Property.—A number of +people formed a congregation and became +incorporated in 1810, the members being +mostly of Presbyterian extraction. This independent +congregation bought and paid for +property, the title vesting in the corporation. +In 1811 the congregation passed resolutions +unanimously that it “would be imprudent +and unscriptural” to establish a new +religious sect, and voted to join the First +Reformed Dutch Church, which had an +organization of inferior and superior authority. +The congregation was received +into and became a part of the general organization, +and remained so until 1860, +when a majority of the congregation voted +to employ a Methodist minister, and when +his name was submitted to the superior +authority, the “classis,” he was rejected as +not belonging to the church. Then by a +majority vote, the congregation seceded and +assumed its first name, and thereafter +brought suit for the church property. The +court held that by joining the First Reformed +Dutch Church, the title of the +property vested in the congregation of that +church as represented by its corporation, +and that when the majority seceded and left +the church, they had no right nor title to +any of the property. And the court laid +[pg 067] +down the general rule that a majority of a +church congregation may direct and control +any church matters consistently with the +particular and general laws of the organization +or denomination to which it belongs, +but not in violation of them.174 +

+ +

+95. Priest, Salary.—The fact that a +bishop who holds the title to all the diocesan +property in his own name in trust appoints +a priest to the parish or as chaplain to a +hospital, does not give the priest a right of +action against the bishop personally for his +salary. The relation of bishop and priest is +not that of employer and employe, but is +that of ecclesiastical superior and inferior.175 +

+ +

+96. Curate, Induction, Rector.—The jus +patronatus of the Spanish law has been abrogated +in Louisiana. The wardens of the +church can not compel a bishop to institute +a curate of their appointment, nor is he in +any sense subordinate in his clerical functions +to the wardens of any church within +his diocese.176 In the absence of a positive +rule of the ecclesiastical body, no ceremony +of induction is necessary for the rector of a +parish.177 A clergyman appointed “permanently” +to a rectorship holds it for an indefinite +[pg 068] +period during the pleasure of the +contracting parties, and either of the contracting +parties may give the other notice of +termination, and with the concurrence of +the higher ecclesiastical authority of the diocese, +a change may be made.178 It is doubtful, +however, whether in most States a permanent +appointment would not be construed +as a contract for life, determinable only for +good cause.179 +

+ +

+97. Controversy, Tribunal, Decision.—When +the clergyman and his parishioners +submit a controversy to an ecclesiastical +tribunal, the decision, if not impeached for +good cause, is justification in the party conforming +to it.180 And a minister who submits +to a church tribunal and is ousted after +fair hearing and trial, can not obtain a writ +of mandamus from the civil court to compel +his reinstatement.181 Also, after a minister +has been dismissed in due manner by the +tribunal of his denomination, the civil court +will enjoin him from usurping his office.182 +

+ +

+98. Priest, Dwelling, Servant.—A Catholic +priest in charge of a congregation at +the will of the bishop and occupying a dwelling-house +[pg 069] +belonging to the church, is a servant +and not a tenant, and his right to occupancy +ceases with his services.183 The law +is different with regard to a Methodist minister +who is in charge of his parish by an +annual conference and can not be ejected +by the congregation or bishop until the +next conference, as he has possession of +the church property without superior authority.184 +

+ +

+99. Injunction, Bishop, Priest, Trial.—On +application for an injunction to restrain +the bishop from passing a sentence against +a priest, the only ground on which a court +can exercise jurisdiction is that the threatened +action of the bishop will affect the civil +rights of the priest.185 A bishop can not remove +a priest without an accusation, hearing, +or trial, and forbid him to exercise any +priestly function where such removal would +cut off the priest's income and destroy his +means of living in his vocation.186 However, +in the same case it was held that a complaint +stating that the bishop failed and neglected +to assign the plaintiff to the exercise of his +office of priest in said diocese to the plaintiff's +[pg 070] +damage, etc., failed to show that any +right of property or civil right was involved +and the priest was non-suited, while in the +former case an injunction was issued +against the bishop.187 +

+ +

+100. Confession, Privacy, Authority.—A +Catholic priest, although about to administer +an office of his religion to a sick person +at the latter's request, has no legal authority, +by virtue of his priestly character, to forcibly +remove from the room a person lawfully +there.188 +

+ +

+101. Debts, Permission, Presumed.—Notwithstanding +a rule or ecclesiastical law +of the church that a pastor shall not contract +debts in the name or for the sake of the +church without the written permission of +the bishop, such written permission is not +evidence that debts contracted under it are +the legal debts of the bishop. The authority +which bishops delegate to priests is under +the ecclesiastical law and prima facie ecclesiastical +authority, and must be presumed to +be so in the absence of all evidence to the +contrary.189 +

+ +

+102. Official Acts, Subscriptions.—The +official acts of a minister coming in question +incidentally, unless contrary to the statute, +[pg 071] +are as valid as the official acts of any other +officer.190 A clergyman who was engaged to +conduct dedication services and was requested +by the officers of the local corporation +to solicit subscriptions for paying off +the indebtedness of the church, but was not +appointed agent to receive such subscriptions, +had no authority to accept a subscription +for the corporation.191 +

+ +

+103. Exemptions, Clergy.—The exemptions +given ministers by the statutes of some +States are liberally construed.192 Without +any statutory exemption, the clergy are +liable for all duties required of other citizens.193 +

+ +

+104. Minister, Contributions, Deposed.—No +religious teacher or minister can be enjoined +from receiving voluntary contributions, +although he has been deposed by some +ecclesiastical tribunal.194 +

+ +

+105. Fees, Usages, Excess.—The fees of +a priest of the Catholic Church are regulated +by the laws and usages of that Church, +and where in this country the pew rent and +collections go for the support of the priest +and the current church expenses, a priest is +[pg 072] +not accountable for the excess of such collections +over these expenditures.195 +

+ +

+106. Salary, Fees.—Under the act of +March, 1814, incorporating a congregation, +the congregation, being the legal owners and +temporal administrators of the property +which it was authorized to hold, had the +exclusive power to fix the salary of the +parish priest or the tariff of fees for marriages, +burial, etc. No such power could be +exercised under that act by the Pope or any +bishop.196 +

+ +

+107. Clergyman, Salary.—Where a clergyman +agreed with a congregation that the +salary should be what could be raised by +subscription, the congregation was bound +to use due diligence in procuring subscriptions, +and as it did so, that was all that the +clergyman could recover.197 +

+ +

+108. Curate, Services.—In an action by +a curate against a religious corporation for +personal services, the court will not inquire +into the spiritual relations existing between +the parties, but will examine their legal +rights only.198 +

+ +

+109. Minister, Dismissal, Money Advanced.—After +a parish has voted to dismiss +[pg 073] +the minister, it is not competent to prove +irregular conduct or immorality in answer +to his claim for salary, without alleging it +in the vote of dismissal.199 In Illinois it was +held that a priest who advanced money from +his private resources for improving church +property, had an equitable lien upon the +property for all the money advanced, with +legal interest.200 But in Pennsylvania, where +a priest under the direction of the bishop +built a church in his parish for mission purposes, +and in doing so expended some of his +own money, it was held that in the absence +of proof of any rule or custom of the Catholic +Church making the payment of such expenses +obligatory on the parish, that he +could not recover the money so expended +from his congregation.201 +

+ +
+ +[pg 074] + +
+ + +

Chapter IX. Membership

+ +

+110. Business, Religious Membership.—Unless +there is some other law or rule to the +contrary, the male members of the congregation +over twenty-one years of age constitute +the business membership of a religious +society.202 But the question of membership +of religious societies or congregations is left +to be determined by the rules of the religious +denomination to which they belong.203 And +where a condition of membership is that the +person must contribute to the support of the +church and be a communicant, if he is not +a communicant he is not entitled to vote.204 +

+ +

+111. Regular, Doctrines, Support.—The +ones who adhere and submit to the regular +order and doctrines of the church, although +a minority, constitute the true congregation.205 +At least two things must concur to +qualify a person as a voter: first, stated attendance +[pg 075] +at divine worship in the congregation; +and, second, contribution to the +support of the church.206 The list of members +kept by the clerk or secretary of the +congregation is evidence of membership.207 +A person who denies any part of the system +of theology received and taught by the denomination +is not a member of the church.208 +

+ +

+112. Factions, Authority.—Where two +factions of a church, each claiming to be the +church, try members of the other faction, +a court may determine which of the factions +is the authorized authority or that the +action taken by either or both of them is +nugatory for want of authority.209 +

+ +

+113. Faith, Burial.—Whether a person +died in the faith of the Roman Catholic +Church so as to be entitled to burial in its +cemetery, is not a question within the jurisdiction +of civil courts, but must be decided +by the ecclesiastical authorities.210 +

+ +

+114. Rules, Membership.—Every denomination +has the right to prescribe by +rules, its constitution, or its by-laws, the +conditions of membership; and any one who +[pg 076] +will not subscribe to and practise the doctrines +of the denomination is not a member.211 +

+ +

+115. Minor.—Where the legal members +of a society that is incorporated consist of +male members of the church of full age, +when minor sons become of age, they become +legal members of the corporation, provided +they remain in the church.212 +

+ +

+116. Officers, Non-Members.—It has +been held that a person may be an officer +or member of the church corporation or its +temporal concerns without being a member +of the denomination.213 +

+ +

+117. Debts, Unincorporated Parish.—In +Connecticut members of an ecclesiastical +society formed by voluntary association +under the statutes of the State are not individually +liable for the debts of such society.214 +But where there is no statute on +the subject, the members of an unincorporated +parish are liable for lawful debts +contracted or ratified by them, and their +property may be levied on for such debts +[pg 077] +incurred or judgments rendered while they +are members of the society.215 The members +of an unincorporated parish may be sued to +recover the salary of a deceased pastor up +to the time of his death.216 +

+ +

+118. Execution, Property.—While an +execution against a territorial parish may +be levied on the property of a member of +the parish, it can not be levied on property +of a person who ceased to be a member before +the levy.217 +

+ +

+119. Incorporated, Subscriptions.—The +members of an incorporated poll parish are +not individually liable on a judgment and +execution against the corporation, excepting +on the unpaid subscriptions.218 +

+ +

+120. Expelled, Merits.—Mandamus can +not be resorted to to restore a member regularly +expelled from his church, as a court +will not inquire into the merits of the case.219 +

+ +

+121. Lay Members, Appointed.—Where +the statute provides that two lay members +of the corporation of a Catholic parish shall +[pg 078] +be appointed annually “by the committee of +the congregation,” the members of the congregation +have no right to elect said two +members, and those appointed in the proper +manner are lawful officers.220 +

+ +
+ +[pg 079] + +
+ + +

Chapter X. Heresy And Secession

+ +

+122. Mother Church, Control.—A majority +of the members of a congregation +can not by their vote leave the church and +transfer the property of the congregation +to another church so long as any portion of +the congregation remains faithful to the +mother church of which such congregation +forms a part. Such minority shall retain +control of the property.221 +

+ +

+123. Seceders, Funds.—Nor can seceders +from a religious denomination retain the +funds in their hands as trustees on the +ground that they were members of the +society when the funds accrued.222 The title +to church property in a divided congregation +is in that part of the congregation +which is acting in harmony with its own +law; and the ecclesiastical laws and principles +which were accepted among them before +the dispute began are the standards for +determining which party is right.223 +

+ +[pg 080] + +

+124. Society, Foreign Language, Independent.—The +formation of a society distinct +from the rest of the congregation for +the purpose of instruction in a portion of the +doctrine of the same church in a foreign language +is not a separation from the congregation, +although it has its own minister and +officers.224 Where an independent congregation +of one denomination votes unanimously +to go over to another denomination, and the +title to the church property is in the parish +corporation, the seceders take with them the +church property.225 +

+ +

+125. Subordinate, Incorporated.—A religious +society subordinate to church judicatures, +which declares itself independent and +becomes incorporated under the general law +of the state and subsequently purchases +land and takes title in the name of the corporation, +holds such land independently of +such church judicatures.226 +

+ +

+126. “Church,” Seceders, Debt.—Where +a religious society amended its constitution +as provided therein, those who adhered to +the amended constitution constituted the +“church,” and those who refused to do so +[pg 081] +were seceders.227 After seceding, a member +of a parish is liable for a debt existing at the +time of his secession.228 +

+ +

+127. Bible, Constitution, Withdrawal.—A +religious organization that takes the +Bible as its constitution can not declare a +member a seceder who interprets it contrary +to the Augsburg Confession of the denomination.229 +What amounts to a voluntary +withdrawal of members from a religious association, +is a question of law.230 +

+ +

+128. Majority, Obligation.—The fact +that a majority of the members of a religious +corporation secede therefrom by a vote, +does not affect its obligation entered into +prior thereto.231 Two factions of a church +separating and keeping up different organizations +may both still retain their membership +in the denomination.232 +

+ +

+129. Division, Funds.—Where there is +a division in a denomination by the secession +of a part of the members from the mother +church, the Legislature has no authority to +divide the funds and give a part to the seceding +division.233 +

+ +[pg 082] + +

+130. Methodist, Slaveholding, Non-Slaveholding, +Quarrel, Schism, Secession.—The +division of the Methodist church into +distinct organizations of slaveholding and +non-slaveholding States, was not a secession +and neither division lost its interest in the +common property.234 A quarrel in a congregation +growing out of an illegal election +followed by the majority excluding the +minority from the church, is not a schism, +and is no ground for a division of the church +property.235 The secession of a whole congregation +does not carry with it the church +property; and those who are left and adhere +to the mother church retain control of the +property.236 When the seceders from one +church join another, they forfeit all claim to +any interest held by the former and lose +identity with it.237 +

+ +
+ +[pg 083] + +
+ + +

Chapter XI. Excommunication

+ +

+131. Definitions, Minor.—Excommunication, +as construed in law, is the official announcement +by the superior authority of the +termination of membership in a religious +body and the forfeiture of spiritual privileges +of the church. It is one of the methods +of discipline in the nature of expulsion from +membership in a fraternity, and the fact of +expulsion from a church is conclusive proof +that the person expelled is not a member of +such church. Whether the excommunication +was wrong or not can not be examined +into in the courts of the State, and such expelled +member can not maintain a suit in +relation to church property nor vote for +trustees.238 +

+ +

+132. Major Excommunication.—As excommunication +non tolerati affects the rights +of citizenship, it is not lawful in England +nor the United States. To say that A. has +been excommunicated in any form, if untrue, +is slander.239 +

+ +[pg 084] + +

+133. Vote, Sentence.—When a vote of +excommunication from a church has been +passed in the Congregational church and the +offender thereby declared no longer a member, +the sentence may be promulgated by +being read in the presence of the congregation +by the pastor.240 +

+ +

+ +134. Trustees, Disqualified.—The trustees +of a church who have been excommunicated +are not thereby disqualified in law to +act as trustees.241 +

+ +

+135. Devise, Void.—A parent may leave +money to a child payable in yearly instalments +on condition that said child shall continue +to be a member of a particular church +and attend the regular meetings thereof, and +in case he fail so to do that the bequest be +thereupon paid to a missionary society. +Such a devise is not contrary to the constitution +of the State of Wisconsin and is not +void for any other reason.242 +

+ +

+136. Fraternity, Excommunicated, Bequest.—Where +a church member was also a +member of an insurance fraternity connected +with his church, the constitution of +which required that every member of the +fraternity should be and remain a practical +[pg 085] +Roman Catholic, when he was excommunicated +from membership in the church he +thereby forfeited his benefit certificate in +such fraternity.243 Also, a condition that a +bequest shall be forfeited if the legatee +should not marry a Protestant wife, the +daughter of Protestant parents who have +always been Protestants, was held to be +valid and not an infringement of any constitutional +right.244 +

+ +

+137. Action, Expulsion.—An action can +not be maintained against the parish corporation +for expulsion from the church.245 +

+ +

+138. Forfeiture of Membership.—Any +member may forfeit his membership in a +church.246 +

+ +

+139. Insubordination, Expulsion, Hearing.—The +authorities in the church, under +its rules and discipline, have a right to exclude +members in the church, for insubordination.247 +If the church has no rules as to +expulsion of members, the common law prevails, +and a member can not be expelled +without due notice and fair hearing.248 +

+ +[pg 086] + +

+140. Injunction, Mandamus, Sepulture.—An +injunction will not be granted to prevent +the expulsion of a member contrary to +the charter and by-laws of the denomination; +but if a member be expelled without +warrant of law, he has his remedy by mandamus +for reinstatement.249 A person who +has been expelled can not maintain an action +for restoration in order to enjoy the right +of sepulture, as it is premature.250 +

+ +

+141. Expulsion, Illegal.—The attempt of +a minority of a church to expel the majority +of the members and turn over the property +to another denomination is illegal. However, +the same would be true if it were done +by the majority.251 +

+ +

+142. Freedom, Faith, Doctrine.—The +constitution in declaring the freedom of all +men to worship God according to the dictates +of their own consciences, does not give +a church member the right to repudiate the +faith and doctrine on which the church was +founded, and at the same time to insist on +his right to exercise and enjoy the benefits +and privileges of a member of such church.252 +Every person joining a church, impliedly, if +not expressly, agrees to conform to its rules +[pg 087] +and to submit to its authority and discipline.253 +A person who has been expelled +from a religious society can not maintain an +action for services rendered the society +while he was a member.254 +

+ +
+ +[pg 088] + +
+ + +

Chapter XII. Elections

+ +

+143. Time, Place, Void.—Where a religious +society that is incorporated holds an +election for trustees, which is held at the +wrong time or place, the election is void.255 +

+ +

+144. Voting, Communicants, Attendance.—A +by-law of a church that prohibited +any person whose pew rent was in arrears +more than two years from voting at a church +meeting, is valid and reasonable.256 Where a +charter of a religious society allowed only +members being communicants to vote after +they had attained the age of eighteen years, +to entitle a member of the congregation to +vote it was necessary that he should have +taken the sacraments after the age of +eighteen years.257 Where the right to vote +was limited to members who contributed not +less than ten shillings annually toward the +support of the church, those who were challenged +for want of complying with the rule +[pg 089] +can not do so after being challenged and +then vote.258 Stated attendance at divine +worship in the church, congregation, or society, +and contribution to the support of such +church, may be made the tests of the right +of a person to be a voter at an election. The +attendance of a wife or children of the family +is not sufficient to confer the right to +vote on the husband or father.259 +

+ +

+145. Voters, Poll List.—Parol evidence +is admissible to prove the number of persons +entitled to vote in a church society, notwithstanding +that there is a register of +names of the stated hearers in such church +kept by the clerk of the trustees. +

+ +

+146. Notice, Quorum, Majority, Strangers.—It +is not necessary that a majority of +the members of a religious society be present +to constitute a corporate meeting. Those +present at a regularly called meeting of +which due notice has been given to all the +members, constitute a quorum; and, in the +absence of a rule to the contrary, a majority +of the votes cast carries any question.260 The +presence of strangers, unless they vote, will +not vitiate the proceedings. If they should +[pg 090] +vote, unless their votes determine the election, +it will not be void.261 The casting of a +few illegal votes that would not change the +result of the election does not make it void.262 +

+ +

+147. Challenge, Ground.—The right of +a person to vote at any meeting may be challenged. +The proper time to challenge a +voter is when he offers his vote. After his +vote has been received it can not be thrown +out on the ground that he was disqualified.263 +A church election for which due notice has +been given, that has been fairly conducted, +and all the requirements of the statute or +rules of the church complied with, is conclusive.264 +Without due notice, all proceedings +are void.265 +

+ +

+148. By-Laws, Usage.—If there is no +law of a religious society determining the +mode of conducting an election, the corporation +may provide by-laws therefor; and +if the corporation should fail to make such +by-laws, a long established usage will govern.266 +Also, if the time an election is to be +held is provided for, but the manner of conducting +[pg 091] +it is not, the meeting may be conducted +according to established usage.267 +

+ +

+149. Ballot, Hand Vote.—The vote of a +religious society at an annual meeting for +the election of officers that the officers shall +always be chosen by ballot, does not vitiate +an election of officers by hand vote at a subsequent +annual meeting. But a provision in +the constitution or by-laws requiring a ballot +must be complied with.268 +

+ +

+150. Hold Over, Successors.—When the +election of the new trustees is invalid, the old +trustees hold over until there will have been +a valid election of their successors.269 But +where a board that was illegally elected employed +a minister who had no notice of such +illegality, he was entitled to his compensation +according to the contract.270 +

+ +

+151. Majority, Votes Cast.—Where the +majority of a congregation protested against +the proposed candidate, but failed to vote for +any one, such candidate who received the +greatest number of votes cast, was lawfully +elected.271 +

+ +[pg 092] + +

+152. By-Law, Tickets.—When a by-law +provides that “if besides the names there are +other things upon the tickets, such tickets +are not to be counted,” a ballot having an +engraved eagle on it should be rejected.272 +However, in a very recent case under a +statute that specifically provided what should +be printed on the general election ballot, and +in addition thereto the Union Labor label +was printed thereon, the court held that +the statute should be strictly construed in +favor of the voter and that the ticket should +be counted.273 +

+ +
+ +[pg 093] + +
+ + +

Chapter XIII. Officers

+ +

+153. Charter, By-Laws.—The articles of +organization or the charter which is the +constitution of the corporation may provide +who may be officers of a religious society and +limit their authority. The constitution usually +gives further authority to make by-laws +which are binding on the officers as well as +on the members.274 +

+ +

+154. Unincorporated Church, Incorporated.—The +officers of an unincorporated +church can only be elected by the members +of the church, unless there is some law of +the State or rule of the church that provides +for appointing them. In an incorporated +congregation, the charter and by-laws of the +corporation determine whether the officers +shall be elected or appointed.275 +

+ +

+155. Trustees, Control.—A statute +passed in 1813 providing that a certificate +of incorporation by the bishop, vicar-general, +pastor of the church, and two others +[pg 094] +selected by them and their successors shall +be a body corporate, does not constitute the +trustees the corporation in place of the congregation +so as to make the acts of a majority +of the trustees binding on the corporation +in the absence of proof of other authority.276 +Under the statutes of Louisiana +providing for the incorporation of congregations +for the purpose of administration +and revenues, it was held that the corporation +had full control and was responsible to +the congregation alone and could not be controled +by the clergy. The congregation had +the right to elect others in the places of those +amoved by reason of their misuse or abuse +of their powers.277 And in Massachusetts, +under the law for incorporating Catholic +parishes, no one but the trustees have any +power.278 +

+ +

+156. Membership, Office.—Where church +membership is necessary to hold office in the +church corporation, it is a binding condition +precedent.279 An officer who withdraws or +is expelled from a religious organization +thereby terminates his office.280 +

+ +[pg 095] + +

+157. Certificate of Election.—A certificate +of election of officers is prima facie +evidence thereof, but the truth may be shown +aliunde and a wrong certificate may be cancelled +by a judgment of a competent court +on a writ of quo warranto or proceeding +under a statute of the State. Also, if the +certificate does not conform to the law, it is +insufficient.281 +

+ +

+158. Term, Successors, Contest.—Where +there is no term of office fixed, the presumption +is that an officer continues as such until +proof to the contrary is established,282 or until +his successor shall have been elected and +shall have qualified.283 Also, the officers +elected for a certain term can not be amoved +by electing new officers before the end of +the term.284 When officers or committees +have been elected “for the ensuing year,” +they shall hold office until superseded by +their duly elected successors. Where two +sets of officers were elected at a meeting of +a religious corporation and the set that was +elected according to the charter continued +in office by appointment thereafter, it was +[pg 096] +too late for the irregularly elected officers to +make a contest for the offices after the term +for which they had been elected had expired.285 +

+ +

+159. By-Laws, Preside.—At an election +of trustees under by-laws that provide that +certain officers shall preside, if there are no +such officers members may be selected to +preside in their places.286 +

+ +

+160. Note, Overdraft, Interest.—The +president and secretary of a church corporation +have no authority to make a promissory +note unless authorized by the board of trustees.287 +Neither has the treasurer authority +to make an overdraft on a bank with the +action of the trustees.288 The trustees of a +parish, however, may make a note binding +the congregation for the payment of the +money used in building a church.289 But +when the trustees have an interest in the +transaction, adverse to the congregation, +they are disqualified from acting.290 When +trustees had claims against the congregation +which they included with other claims that +[pg 097] +third parties had against the church, they +could not put them in a judgment note so as +to get a lien upon the church property. +When officers do not bind the congregation, +they usually bind themselves.291 The trustees +of an unincorporated church can not +bind it beyond the expressed powers granted +by the members.292 +

+ +

+161. Board, Control.—When the laws of +the organization give control of matters to +the board of trustees, the majority of the +members of the church can not control the +action of the trustees contrary to the usages +and regulations of the church.293 +

+ +

+162. Treasurer, Accepting a Draft.—A +parish treasurer has no authority under any +condition to bind the corporation by accepting +a draft in favor of a third person. A +treasurer elected for the purpose of receiving +and investing funds in his individual +name, holds such funds as trustee for the +church and is subject as such trustee to a +court of equity. Persons claiming to be +trustees of a church but never getting possession +of their offices or the property of the +church, can not maintain an action against +[pg 098] +other persons who are in possession and +have been duly elected.294 +

+ +

+163. Note, Trustees.—A church will not +be bound by a note which was executed by +two of its trustees and sent around to other +trustees to sign it, where there was no vote +of the board of trustees at an authorized +meeting to borrow or to execute such note.295 +A meeting of a board must be called as required +by law or the by-laws of the organization, +and in the absence of any such all +members must be notified a reasonable time +before the time fixed for holding the meeting. +However, if all the trustees are present +and agree to hold a meeting it is valid; +but it would be well to put such consent in +writing and have all the members sign it.296 +

+ +

+164. Money, Powers.—The treasurer of +a congregation has no right to return to +members moving out of the parish a part of +the money paid for the church by them.297 +Officers of a corporation have no powers +only those conferred upon them by the charter +and by-laws of the corporation or by a +majority vote of a duly called meeting of +the congregation.298 When the trustees of a +[pg 099] +church are authorized to execute contracts +for the church, they should act as a body or +delegate the power to one of their number or +ratify the acts of one of their number.299 The +individual disjointed action of trustees of a +religious society, at various times and places, +although assented to by a majority, is not +the action of the board, and is not binding +on the society. To make the action of +the board of trustees binding, they must +duly meet and by a vote determine their +action.300 +

+ +

+165. De Facto Officers.—The acts of de +facto officers can not usually be questioned +in a collateral proceeding, such as to set +aside a conveyance, when the merits of the +question do not involve the election.301 Being +elected does not alone make a person a de +facto officer; but he must also be acting in +the particular office to which he claims to +have been elected.302 But one who has +entered into a contract with the officers of a +congregation is estopped from denying their +authority to make such contract.303 +

+ +[pg 100] + +

+166. Trustees, Thanks, Charge.—Where +trustees have taken care of funds without +charge, the only entry kept being a vote of +thanks from time to time, they could not +afterward charge a commission on the +moneys handled by them for such services.304 +

+ +

+167. Discretion, Excommunication.—A +court has no authority to control the exercise +of the judgment or discretion of the +officers of a church in the management of its +funds so long as they do not violate its constitution +or by-laws.305 Excommunication +does not always remove an officer of a church +corporation.306 The legal rights of a bishop +in regard to the temporalities of a church +where they are not prescribed by civil law, +must rest, if at all, upon the ecclesiastical +law, which must be determined by evidence.307 +

+ +

+168. Key, Possession, Right.—Having +the key of a church, is prima facie evidence +of possession, but the right of possession is +a matter of proof.308 +

+ +

+169. Church, Bishop, Debts, Salary of a +Priest.—Where a church is not itself liable +because it is not incorporated, the Roman +Catholic bishop of the diocese is not personally +[pg 101] +liable for moneys borrowed by the pastors +of such church in the name of the +church, which were partly invested in real +estate which was put in the bishop's name +in the usual manner, although the bishop's +permission was necessary before borrowing +the money, and notwithstanding that the +bishop raised some of the money to pay some +of the debts and the mortgage on the real +estate of the church on his personal security, +and he received part of the borrowed funds +from a dying pastor and handed it over to +his successor.309 Also, a bishop is not personally +liable for the salary of a priest whom +he engages. They are fellow servants +working for the Church and not in the relation +of employer and employee any more +than are a general and captain in the same +army.310 +

+ +

+170. Note, Building Committee.—In an +action on a note given by the pastor of a +church for money borrowed to pay bills for +the erection of the church building, in which +the plaintiff sought to charge the building +committee, and it appeared from the plaintiff's +testimony that the title to the property +was in the bishop and the committee did not +handle any of the funds, but was a shifting +[pg 102] +body to whom the pastor only went for +advice and consultation, it was held that the +plaintiff could not recover.311 +

+ +

+171. Fraud, Trust.—Where a “prophet” +induced members of his organization, by his +fraud and deceit, to convey to him all their +property in discharge of a religious duty and +then refused to account to them, the court +declared the trust closed and divided the +estate among the members in proportion to +the money, property, and labor contributed +by each of them.312 +

+ +

+172. Superioress, Money.—A person +who contributed money for the purpose of +repairing a convent, the money being turned +over to the superioress and the convent not +being incorporated, upon the project being +abandoned subsequently a personal judgment +could not be obtained against the +superioress for the money contributed.313 +

+ +

+173. Loan, Priest.—If a man lends +money to a priest for the purpose of paying +a note against the congregation left at the +bank for collection, he can recover the +money so paid from the congregation.314 +

+ +

+174. Warden, Wages, Sexton.—A +church warden who was hired by the trustees +[pg 103] +of a church can not collect his wages +by an action against the priest of the parish.315 +A church accepting the services of a +sexton is liable to him therefor, whether +the by-laws were observed in employing him +or not; nor will the fact that any party (as +in this case the Ladies of the Altar Society) +agreed to contribute to his annual salary, +defeat his recovery of the whole from the +church employing him.316 +

+ +

+175. Sewing Circle, Money.—A church +may maintain an action against a sewing +circle to require it to pay over money collected +for the benefit of the church.317 +

+ +
+ +[pg 104] + +
+ + +

Chapter XIV. Meetings

+ +

+176. Business, Notice, Meeting.—Where, +in the transaction of the local business of a +religious society, whether incorporated or +not, meetings of the members shall become +necessary, in order to make such meetings +legal due notice thereof should be given to +every member. The notice should specify +the exact time and place where the meeting +will be held, and no change can be made +except at such time and place. Unless some +other place is specified, the parish church is +the proper place for holding meetings. If +the church should be locked and the key can +not be found, a meeting should be held at +the door or at the nearest practical place to +the church where all the members may assemble, +and then by a majority vote they +may adjourn to any convenient near place +accessible to all the members.318 +

+ +

+177. Acts, Void, Lawful, Clerk.—The +acts of a majority of the members of a corporation, +unless done according to law and +[pg 105] +in conformity with the charter and by-laws +of the corporation, are absolutely null and +void.319 The only lawful manner by which a +congregation can express itself, is by a +meeting regularly called and held upon due +notice.320 The notice of a meeting should be +authorized by the trustees or other authority +of the church, and given to all the members. +The clerk of the board of trustees, unless +authorized to do so, has no authority to sign +the name of the members of the board to a +notice, and a meeting called in that way is +illegal.321 +

+ +

+178. Special Meeting, Notice.—When a +meeting is special, the notice must state for +what purpose the meeting is called. If it +fails to do so it is void, and unless all the +members are present and consent to the +holding of the meeting, all business transacted +is illegal and void.322 Notice of a special +meeting that states one specific purpose for +which it is called, and then states “to transact +any other business that may legally come +before the meeting,” is not good for any +purpose except the one specified.323 +

+ +[pg 106] + +

+179. Meeting, Consent.—A valid meeting +can not be held by a corporation, unless +notice has been given in conformity with the +laws and rules and regulations of the corporation +or the consent of every person who is +entitled to be present at the holding of such +meeting. In the latter case the consent +should be in writing and signed by all the +members.324 However, a person who attends +a meeting and takes part in it without objection, +is estopped from raising the question +of notice.325 +

+ +

+180. Notice, Principal Service, Custom.—When +a rule of a church required notice +of a meeting to be given at the principal +service, a notice given at an earlier service +only, was void.326 But where the ordinances +of a church specified that the election of officers +should be at least six days before the +end of their term, and it became the custom +of the church to hold the election on a movable +holiday which sometimes was less than +six days, the election was held valid.327 +

+ +

+181. Adjournment.—Where a meeting +was noticed for one day and held on a different +day without notice of adjournment, +all acts done were void and the officers +[pg 107] +elected were neither de jure nor de facto +officers.328 +

+ +

+182. Proof of the Notice.—The proper +proof of the notice would be the return of +the officer serving the notice, in some States; +and in others an affidavit of the person who +served the notice. The proof of the services +of a summons would be sufficient unless there +is some other law or rule to the contrary.329 +

+ +

+183. Presiding Officer.—When the laws +of the organization provide who shall preside +at a meeting, but the minister contrary +to such laws and against objections presided +over the majority of the congregation, and +the minority was presided over by the proper +person, and both elected officers, the officers +elected by the minority were the lawful +ones.330 However, where a meeting is presided +over without objection by a member +instead of the proper officer, the acts of the +body are lawful.331 +

+ +

+184. Voters, Rules.—Unless the laws of +the State otherwise provide, every religious +organization has the right to determine who +shall vote at its meetings and elections. If +those provisions are reasonable, they are +[pg 108] +lawful. Under such provisions it has been +repeatedly held that where there are rules +requiring annual subscriptions to the +church,332 only those who rented and paid for +pews, or those who paid a certain annual +tax, or those who went to communion, were +entitled to vote.333 And where there was no +rule, it was held that one who has not contributed +to the church334 and persons who +attended church only occasionally and contributed +only when they attended, were not +qualified voters.335 In the last case it was +stated that a qualified voter is one who has +attended regularly during the year and has +contributed to the support of the church. +

+ +

+185. Quorum, Majority.—A quorum of +a congregation usually consists of those +present at a duly called regular meeting, and +a majority of those present is sufficient to +carry questions, unless by rule or law otherwise +provided.336 But where there is a definite +body in a corporation which has established +no other rule, a majority of the members +of the corporation constitute a +quorum.337 Where the minutes of the clerk +[pg 109] +stated that upon due notice the members of +the corporation met, a quorum is presumed.338 +

+ +

+186. Votes, Challenge, Inspectors, Casting +Vote.—The reception of illegal votes +does not invalidate an election unless they +change the result.339 If the presiding officer +refuses to allow a qualified voter to vote, the +right may be enforced through civil courts.340 +When votes have been received without +challenge, it is then too late to raise the objection +that the persons have no right to +vote.341 It is the duty of the inspectors to +determine the qualifications of an elector at +the time that he offers to vote, and before he +votes; and if they decide in the exercise of +their judgment, without malice or improper +motives, the regularity of the election can +not be questioned.342 When a rule allows the +presiding officer to vote and another rule +states that he shall have the casting vote in +case of a tie vote, he still had the right to +cast the decisive vote.343 Illegal voting in a +religious society probably is not an indictable +offense, but it is a disorderly act.344 +

+ +[pg 110] + +

+187. Written Notice, Prayer Meeting.—Where +a five days' written notice is required +to hold church meetings, an oral notice given +on Sunday evening at the prayer meeting is +not sufficient for a meeting on the following +Wednesday. But a vote taken on Sunday to +hire the minister and fix his salary, is not +void.345 Churches and benefit societies, such +as insurance fraternities, being charitable +organizations, may do business concerning +such association on Sunday.346 +

+ +

+188. Expulsion, Damages.—A man who +has been wrongfully expelled from a temperance +society for religious reasons may +recover damages therefor.347 +

+ +
+ +[pg 111] + +
+ + +

Chapter XV. Church Records

+ +

+189. Evidence, Entries, Minutes.—The +record of the proceedings of a religious society +is evidence as to its doings, both in its +own tribunals and the courts of the State. +Such record consists of entries required to +be made by the laws or rules of the society, +the laws of the State, and the minutes +adopted by the society. Therefore, it is of +the greatest importance that it be kept with +great exactness, omitting nothing that is +important.348 Also, the minutes of all the +meetings should be correct before being duly +adopted. All erasures and interlineations +should be certified by the clerk and then +signed by him. +

+ +

+190. Uniformity.—Every entry required +to be kept by the laws of the State as well +as the rules of the Church, should be kept as +to births, marriages, and death. Every diocese +should have uniform record books in all +parishes and every pastor should keep blanks +printed in the form of a page of the record +book, to issue certificates when required. +

+ +[pg 112] + +

+191. Marriage, Death, Baptism, Birth, +Church Records.—The church records duly +kept in accordance with the discipline of the +church, are admissible in evidence to prove +marriage, death, and baptism. Where the +record is incomplete, as giving the date of +baptism only, it is not admissible in proof of +date of birth. But if it gives the date of +birth, it is prima facie proof thereof.349 +

+ +

+192. Certified Copies.—Under statutes, +certified copies of the record made by the +custodian thereof are admissible in evidence +in any case where the original would be admissible. +Also, one who had compared a +copy with the original record may testify to +the same. The rule, as given, substantially +prevails under statutes in the following +States: Alabama, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, +Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, +Minnesota, Missouri, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, +Rhode Island, and Wisconsin; and +also, in Ontario, Manitoba, and the Dominion +of Canada. +

+ +

+193. Rule of Admissibility.—A certified +copy of the record of a baptism taken from +a church register by the parish priest, when +admissible at the place where such record is +[pg 113] +kept, as in Ireland, is admissible to prove the +same fact in the State of Missouri.350 +

+ +

+194. Proper Record.—A book kept by a +minister, which contained a regular statement +in proper form of the admission of +members, choice of officers, and transaction +of business of the church, which was the +only book kept by the parish, is the proper +record of the church.351 +

+ +

+195. Name, Record.—The author would +like to emphasize the importance of correct +records. Frequently we find no Christian +name given in the records of birth, which +practically makes the record worthless. +When a child is born it is entitled to a name, +immediately, which should be given and be +correct. At least the first Christian name +should be correct; a mistake in a middle +name is not material. This is true of deeds +and records of all kinds, but practically of +births, deaths, and marriages.352 +

+ +
+ +[pg 114] + +
+ + +

Chapter XVI. Church Tribunals

+ +

+196. Jurisdiction, Privileges.—It is usual +for every fraternity to have a tribunal of its +own for the trial of members who break its +laws or violate its discipline. Within their +jurisdiction, the laws of the State give such +tribunals great privileges and courts show +them great respect. The Freemasons, the +Knights of Columbus, etc., and most of the +churches, have such courts.353 +

+ +

+197. Trial, Property, Priest.—In most of +the States a court will not interfere with the +fair trial of a church tribunal. Neither will +the court entertain a controversy concerning +the title or right of possession of real or personal +property excepting at the instance of +some person claiming a right thereto derived +from or recognized by the law of the State +or of the United States.354 But when the +bishop has deprived a subordinate priest of +his authority to officiate as such, he may +[pg 115] +enjoin the priest from making use of the +church property.355 +

+ +

+198. Doubt, Legal Rights.—The foregoing +rule has some doubt cast on it in Delaware +and Massachusetts. The investigation +of a dispute between members of a church +by a committee according to church regulations, +consented to by the parties, in which +both take part, can have no effect on their +legal rights. If the State law provides for +cases of the kind, it is superior and must be +submitted to. Also, an award or proceeding +of a committee is not evidence for or against +either party. However, any statement made, +or admissions of the parties, if not of a recognized +confidential nature, may be given in +evidence on the trial in a court of the State.356 +The judgment of a mutual ecclesiastical +council legally convoked will not bind either +party rejecting it.357 +

+ +

+199. Bishop, Priest, Redress.—When a +bishop removes a priest in the regular way +according to the rules and discipline of his +church, the priest has no redress.358 Also, +when a priest has submitted his case to the +church tribunal according to the discipline +of his church, he must abide by its decision, +[pg 116] +excepting where his civil rights or property +rights as a citizen are involved, when he may +appeal to the laws of the land.359 +

+ +

+200. Trial, Counsel.—The question +whether a minister on trial in a church tribunal +is entitled to be heard by counsel or +attorneys depends upon the laws of the +church, and it can not be said as a matter of +law that he is entitled to counsel.360 +

+ +

+201. Removal, Suspension, Trial.—In +the United States under the laws and discipline +of the Catholic Church a priest may +be removed from the charge of a congregation +at the pleasure of the bishop, without +trial; but he can not be suspended from his +priestly functions without specific accusation +and trial.361 +

+ +

+202. Charges, Fair Trial, Hearsay Evidence.—When +a clergyman or officer is to be +removed or a member of the congregation is +to be excommunicated, it is necessary to +fully state the charges against him and give +him an opportunity for a fair trial according +to the laws and rules of the religious society +before rendering final judgment. All the +allegations of the complaint should be made +upon positive knowledge of the complainant +[pg 117] +or upon evidence that is admissible to prove +the case in court. Rumor or gossip, known +as mere hearsay evidence, is not sufficient to +base a charge against the character of any +one.362 +

+ +

+203. Trial, Testimony, Slander.—A +church judgment, where there has been a +full and fair trial or when members submit +to the church tribunal, and the judgment has +only been rebuke, censure, suspension, or excommunication, +is usually upheld by the +courts; and when the testimony given on +such trial is concerning immoral or scandalous +conduct or crime, if those taking part +act in good faith and within the scope of the +authority of the church, they are protected +by law and not liable to an action for damages +for libel or slander.363 +

+ +

+204. Remedies, Secular Courts.—In +cases involving church doctrine and discipline +only, all remedies within the church +must be exhausted by a member before the +secular courts will interfere, if they will interfere +at all.364 +

+ +[pg 118] + +

+205. Notice, Waiver.—When the laws +of the church provide the tribunal and procedure, +if the person proceeded against +avoids the service of the notice or refuses to +submit to the court, the notice of trial required +to be served might thereby be considered +waived and the tribunal might proceed +with the trial in the absence of the accused.365 +

+ +

+206. Appeal, Decision, Limitation.—The +right to appeal from one court to another of +higher jurisdiction is generally recognized.366 +If after trial in the lower tribunal of the +Church, an appeal is taken, the decision on +the appeal is binding upon the parties and +also upon the inferior tribunal.367 In the +Anglican and some other churches, there is +no limitation as to time when offenses +against the discipline of the church may be +inquired into.368 +

+ +

+The Catholic Church has a limitation as +to prescriptive rights, to-wit: “Three years +in case of movable property; ten years in +case of a right, or of immovable property, +inter praesentes; twenty years in the same +case, inter absentes.”369 Also, there are limitations +in canonical cases, varying from one +[pg 119] +to twenty years.370 There is no statute of +limitation on lawful debts. +

+ +

+207. Procedure, Judge, Juror, Witness.—If +there are no rules of procedure prescribed +by the church tribunal, the proper +practice is to follow the State courts; as, for +example, where the State law forbids an +officer of the court who has an interest in +the proceeding to sit as judge or juror, the +same would apply to the church tribunal, it +being the common law of the land. Also, in +States where a person who is interested in a +matter is not a competent witness, in the +absence of a different rule in the church, the +same rule would apply in the church +tribunal.371 +

+ +

+208. Catholic Discipline.—A church +member has no right to sue any one in holy +orders in the civil court without leave. That +is, a layman or priest should obtain leave of +the bishop to sue a priest. In some countries +it is ground for excommunication to violate +the rule. This rule is analogous to the general +rule that a sovereign state can not be +sued without its consent.372 In this country, +where there is no ecclesiastical court recognized +in law, leave is rarely asked.373 +

+ +
+ +[pg 120] + +
+ + +

Chapter XVII. State Courts

+ +

+209. Decision, Ecclesiastical Matter.—The +decision of the highest tribunal of the +church on a purely ecclesiastical matter will +not be disturbed by civil courts unless it is in +open defiance and express violation of the +constitution of such body.374 +

+ +

+210. Right of Property, Civil Rights.—Where +there are several church tribunals +one above another, when the highest tribunal +having jurisdiction of the case has decided a +question as to the right of property, a civil +court will accept such decision of the church +tribunal as conclusive.375 The courts give +way to the usages and regulations of the +church so far as they are not inconsistent +with the constitution and laws of the State.376 +As far as civil rights are concerned, the +[pg 121] +statute of limitations may be pleaded even +where those rights are founded upon some +law or rule of the denomination.377 +

+ +

+211. Creed, Factions, Property, Management.—The +supreme court exercises no +ecclesiastical jurisdiction, but accepts what +the highest ecclesiastical authority in each +church promulgates as the faith and practice +of that church, and will not determine +for itself what that faith or creed is in order +to establish the rights of respective factions +in the church to the church property. But a +majority of a congregation that secedes +from the church and forms a new organization +can not claim any of the property.378 The +civil courts will not interfere with church +management so far as concerns the spiritual +discipline of the members, but where civil +rights of property are involved, the courts +may determine them.379 The civil rights of a +religious society or its members are within +the jurisdiction of the State courts.380 +

+ +

+212. Trust, Court of Equity.—A conveyance +in trust for the use of a church +vests the use in the church and it will be +protected by a court of equity.381 +

+ +[pg 122] + +

+213. Injunction, Closing Church, Paying +Money, Disturbances.—A court of equity +will issue an injunction against the trustees +of a church from wrongfully closing it or +keeping it closed even against a small minority.382 +Church property vested in trustees of +a religious body is held under trust and a +court of equity has jurisdiction to enforce +the trust.383 A court of equity may restrain +the trustees of a church from paying money +to a duly deposed minister.384 But a court of +equity will not interfere to quell religious +disturbances when no question as to property +or civil rights is involved. The board +of trustees of a church can not remove a +priest against the will of the congregation.385 +

+ +

+214. Suits, Parties.—Where a number +of persons have contributed to the erection +of a church, it is not necessary for all who +contribute to join in an action to restrain a +sale of the property for mercantile purposes.386 +Any member of a church not incorporated +may come into a court of equity in +behalf of himself and others and enforce the +execution of a trust in favor of the church.387 +The same rule would apply to a church +[pg 123] +where any one in authority is violating the +law.388 If several congregations of a diocese +are interested in litigation, to hold all the +property of the diocese liable for the debt of +a parish, each congregation is entitled to be +made a party.389 +

+ +

+215. Complaint.—A complaint that the +plaintiffs hold one doctrinal standard and the +defendants another is sufficiently definite +without explaining the difference between +the two.390 +

+ +

+216. Church Tribunal, Courts.—Courts +are reluctant to interfere in the church doctrine +or discipline or inquire into the regularity +of the proceedings of the church tribunal. +When such tribunal has deposed a +pastor or expelled a member, it is final. +However, in contracts, property rights, and +civil rights of a citizen, the courts take jurisdiction. +It is no defense to a pastor's expulsion +that there is salary due him.391 +

+ +

+217. Unincorporated Congregation, Actions, +Interest.—An unincorporated congregation +may be sued on contract in its associate +capacity, though no persons are named +[pg 124] +as trustees or committeeman.392 In all actions +by or against a congregation the civil +courts will not permit suits to be brought by +complainants who have no interest either +legal or equitable in the temporalities of the +church.393 A suit against a society of Shakers +consisting of indefinite membership with +changing additions, withdrawals, and deaths, +whose property is held in common without +any individual interest, may properly be +brought in equity as the remedy at law would +be inadequate.394 +

+ +

+218. Blasphemy, Sabbath, Lord's Prayer, +Bible.—Christianity is a part of the common +law of the United States; it is on this +ground that blasphemy and violation of the +Sabbath are made criminal offenses and that +the Lord's Prayer and the Bible are used in +the schools.395 +

+ +
+ +[pg 125] + +
+ + +

Chapter XVIII. Evidence

+ +

+219. Judicial Notice.—A church takes +judicial notice without proof of its own +rules, laws, and doctrines. Every other fact +should be proved according to the rules of +evidence of the church, and in the absence +of a church rule the following rules of the +courts of this country should prevail: +

+ +

+1. Nothing should be admitted in evidence +unless it directly proves or disproves +an evidentiary fact forming a link of a chain +of facts that will prove a fact in issue. +

+ +

+2. It is sufficient to prove the substance +of the issue, unless the exact word or thing +forms the issue. +

+ +

+3. The burden of proof is on the one +who asserts the fact, whether it is stated +affirmatively or negatively, and its proof is +necessary to his making a case. +

+ +

+4. The best evidence that the case in its +nature affords must be produced. +

+ +

+5. Mere hearsay evidence shall not be +allowed, excepting: +

+ +[pg 126] + +

+(a) Matters of public or general interest. +

+ +

+(b) Declaration against interest. +

+ +

+(c) Dying declarations. +

+ +

+(d) The testimony of witnesses since +dead or absent. +

+ +

+(e) Admissions. +

+ +

+(f) Confessions. +

+ +

+220. Competent Witness.—Everybody +who has the use of reason and understands +the import of an oath is a competent witness. +

+ +

+221. Confessions, Secret Societies.—At +common law, confessions were admissible; +but there is no case in the United States +since 1813 where the court has sent a priest +to jail for contempt for refusing to disclose +a confession, and no case in which a priest +disclosed a confession. Immediately after +a priest was committed for contempt for refusing +to divulge the secrets of the confessional, +in 1813, New York enacted the following +law: “No minister of the gospel, or +priest of any denomination whatsoever, +shall be allowed to disclose any confession +made to him in his professional character, +in the course of discipline enjoined by the +rules or practice of such denomination.” A +similar law has been adopted in the following +States and Territories: Alabama, Arizona, +California, Colorado, Idaho, Iowa, +[pg 127] +Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, +Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, Ohio, +New York, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Utah, +Washington, Wisconsin, Wyoming, and +Hawaii. The secrets of a secret society are +not privileged, and a member as a witness +must answer all relevant questions in court.396 +

+ +

+222. Privilege, Answer.—When a question +concerning a matter privileged is put, +the priest should say: “I claim my privilege +as a clergyman and ask the court not to require +me to answer”; “Whatever he said +concerning the matter, was said to me in the +confessional as a priest”; “I talked with him +about the matter only in my professional +capacity as a priest and confessor”; “I did +not speak to him about the matter except +in my confidential capacity as priest;” or a +similar statement that sets up the clergyman's +privilege without giving facts. A +clergyman should not say: “He confessed +it to me,” or “He told it to me in confession,” +or give any other answer that implies +what was said in confession, as jurors are +always watching for a hint of what was +said. Neither should the priest say, “I refuse +to answer,” without stating that he +refuses because of his privilege as a clergyman. +[pg 128] +The trial judge or the attorneys trying +the case may put proper questions to +determine whether the information was +given the witness in the confessional or in +his capacity as confessor.397 +

+ +

+223. Admissions, False Statements.—Admissions +or statements made to a clergyman +not in his capacity of confidential adviser +or in the course of discipline, are not +privileged.398 Neither are false statements +made to a committee investigating charges; +but all statements made to such a committee +or an officer of the church, unless false and +made with malice, are privileged.399 +

+ +

+224. Anonymous Letter, Clergyman.—Where +a priest received an anonymous letter +alleged to have been written by a defendant, +which he read to her, he was not +disqualified from testifying that she was +excited and that she stated she had no idea +how the fire started, and that the letter was +unknown to her, etc.400 The mere fact that a +communication is made to a clergyman does +not make it privileged. It is privileged only +when made in confidence of the relation and +under such circumstances as to imply that +it should forever remain a secret in the +[pg 129] +breast of the confidential adviser.401 When +a matter is privileged, it is not left to the +witness whether or not he shall testify concerning +it; but he can not testify without +the consent of the other party.402 +

+ +

+225. Voire Dire.—Where a priest made +a preliminary examination of a woman to +ascertain her mental capacity to make a confession, +her answers in such preliminary +examination were admissible in a contest on +a will; but her confession was not admissible.403 +

+ +

+226. England, Confession.—The rule is +now accorded priests in England, but was +not formerly. Where a priest turned a +watch over to its owner, the court ordered +him, under pain of contempt, to tell where +he got the watch.404 But in another case it +was held that a priest need not divulge the +confession of a defendant who was held for +crime.405 +

+ +

+227. United States, Rules.—In the United +States courts, the rule prevails that such +confidential communications to a priest shall +not be divulged.406 +

+ +[pg 130] + +

+228. Presumptions, Usage.—The usage +of a church or the laws of its organization +as a religious society, if they are to be considered +in deciding legal controversies, must +be proved as facts.407 In the absence of +proof, it will be presumed that subordinate +bodies, as congregations, can not dissolve +their connection with the principal organization +without permission.408 +

+ +

+229. Funeral Expenses.—Witnesses' +opinions as to the reasonable amount for +burial or as to the cost of a funeral being +reasonable, are not binding on a court or +jury. The station of a man, the property +that he leaves, the life that he has followed, +all should be considered by the court. The +whims and notions of societies and others +are of minor consideration. Those who +make funeral expenses that are not allowed +by the court must pay them.409 +

+ +
+ +[pg 131] + +
+ + +

Chapter XIX. Contracts

+ +

+230. Business, Religious Service.—A +church organization has the legal right to +make any contract concerning its own +affairs that is not prohibited by its by-laws +or its charter, subject to all laws of legal +contracts in the business world. When the +consideration is a religious service duly performed, +there seems to be no objection to it. +Therefore, a minister may collect for +preaching a sermon, attending the sick, or +saying prayers, or performing any other +religious service. But an incorporated +church has no authority to enter into a contract +for an ulterior purpose, such as the +employment of a vessel for the purpose of +an excursion.410 +

+ +

+231. Incorporated Body.—The only way +a religious society that is incorporated can +make a contract is by a vote of the aggregate +body or of the board of trustees, or +through an agent authorized by a vote of +one body or the other.411 +

+ +[pg 132] + +

+232. Mortgage, Deficiency Judgment.—Where +a mortgage had been foreclosed +against church property before the congregation +was incorporated, a deficiency judgment +can not be rendered against such +church corporation.412 But where a congregation +was incorporated after a debt had +been incurred and took charge of the property, +it assumed the debt.413 +

+ +

+233. Building Contracts.—The taking +part in a meeting by voting and appointing +committees to make contracts will bind those +taking part in all contracts made in accordance +with the directions of such meeting. +In some States the individuals are held only +to the amount that each subscribes, but in +other States each individual is liable for the +entire debt.414 +

+ +

+234. Individual Promise, Subscriptions, +Signature.—An individual promise to give +a donation to charity, can not be enforced.415 +But subscriptions to build a church or other +charitable institution or to pay the salary of +a clergyman when signed by more than one +person, have been held binding in some +[pg 133] +cases on the disputed rule of a-promise-for-a-promise +consideration.416 In the foregoing +cases the donor might revoke his subscription +or in case of his death his estate would +not be liable.417 However, when expenses +have been made or steps taken in the carrying +out of the object of the subscriptions, +the general rule is that the subscriptions become +binding contracts.418 If the object of +the subscriptions be abandoned or changed +without the consent of the subscriber, he is +thereby released. A promissory note given +for the subscription, unless negotiated for +value in due course of trade, does not change +the foregoing rules.419 Where many persons +subscribed to build a church and some of +them failed to pay, one who paid brought +an action on behalf of himself and others +and collected the unpaid subscriptions.420 +The defendant Nalty signed “Nalty Family, +$1,000,” but he was held personally liable.421 +

+ +

+235. Special Purpose, Suit.—When +money is subscribed for a special purpose, +as for rebuilding a church, it belongs to the +[pg 134] +church organization; and in a suit to recover +the money the action should be brought in +the name of the corporation, if incorporated, +and if not incorporated it should be brought +in the name of the interested party.422 +

+ +

+236. Promise, Consideration.—A promise +made by the owner of land to a trustee +for the benefit of a religious society, that +he would convey the land to such society if +it would build a church thereon, is a good +and lawful consideration; and after work +was begun on the church, the contract was +enforceable in a court of equity.423 +

+ +
+ +[pg 135] + +
+ + +

Chapter XX. Pews

+ +

+237. Sold, Rented.—Prior to the Reformation +pews were not sold nor rented and +every member had the right to sit wherever +he pleased in the body of the church. After +the Reformation, the ordinary or bishop was +granted the right of “faculty” to rent or sell +pews.424 +

+ +

+238. Incorporeal Hereditament.—The +English title in a pew is in the nature of a +right of way through another's land; it is +an incorporeal hereditament. In the absence +of express law, the title to pews in +this country is said to be in the nature of +real estate, and in fact not very different +from the English title.425 In some States the +title is made personal property by statute.426 +And in others the courts have inquired into +the law of the church and adjudged the +title accordingly.427 The general rule is that +[pg 136] +the owner of a pew simply has an easement.428 +

+ +

+239. Catholic Church, Pew Rights.—In +the Catholic Church, by the canon law, the +ownership in or control over a pew is forbidden +to laymen. Notwithstanding that, if +the party holding the title violates the rule +of the church by giving a deed to the pew-holder, +the courts would probably sustain +his title.429 However, as the clergy can +neither rent nor sell pews without becoming +subject to the law of the land and the jurisdiction +of our courts, it is important to know +what the law of the State is. +

+ +

+240. Land, Use, Rent Pews.—Where +land was conveyed in trust to the bishop of +a diocese and his successors for the erection +of a church for the use of a congregation, +the right to rent pews vested under the deed +and laws of the Catholic Church in the +parish priest and not in the trustees afterward +elected, as the parish priest was the +agent of the bishop.430 +

+ +

+241. Trustees, Sale in Perpetuity.—Without +authority of law the trustees of a +[pg 137] +church can not make an absolute sale in perpetuity +of a pew without any reservation of +rent.431 The sale of a pew in a church will +be determined in a case according to the +particular facts.432 +

+ +

+242. Pew, Right to Occupy, Conditions.—A +grant of a church pew in perpetuity +does not give the owner an absolute right +of property as a grant of land in fee; but +gives only a right to sit therein, although +he may maintain an action in court for protection +of his rights.433 In Vermont a pewholder +has only the right to occupy his seat +during religious services and holds it subject +to the superior right of the society owning +the pew.434 A condition in the deed to +a pew that a holder about to leave the congregation +shall offer it to the society for a +certain price, is not invalid.435 Where a +pewholder held his pew by a certain agreement +and after the church had been remodeled +he bought a different pew, the conditions +attached to the first pew did not apply +to the last.436 Pews owned by the occupant +pass to the heirs as real estate instead of +[pg 138] +going to the executors as personal property +in States where the title is in the nature of +the title to real estate.437 +

+ +

+243. Tax, Assessment.—A tax assessed +upon the pew of a religious corporation in +part for purposes not specifically named in +a deed of the pew, which alone gives the +power to make such an assessment and +which strictly defines and limits such power, +is invalid in toto.438 The right to make an +assessment on pews must be founded upon +law, else it can not be enforced.439 When a +congregation sells pews at auction rent free +for the purpose of building a church, it has +no power thereafter to assess the pews for +the salary of the minister.440 +

+ +

+244. Pewholders' Rights.—A pewholder +has the exclusive right to occupy his pew +when the house is used for the purpose for +which it was erected; but he can not convert +his pew to other purposes not contemplated.441 +If he has paid his pew-rent according +to agreement, he is entitled to use +his pew on all occasions when the house is +occupied, even when it is open for purposes +different from those mentioned in the conveyance +[pg 139] +thereof; and he has the right to exclude +all others from his pew by fastening +the door or otherwise, and any one who +enters his pew knowing the facts, is a trespasser +and liable to an action for damages.442 +The owner of a pew has no right to put an +offensive covering thereon nor use his pew +in any way to the annoyance of the congregation +or not in keeping with the place and +conditions. By placing anything offensive +about his pew, he may be liable for maintaining +a nuisance, and such offensive thing +may be removed; but, as far as possible, it +must be removed without damaging the +pewholder's property.443 +

+ +

+245. Rebuilding, Remodeling.—An injunction +was granted on the bill of pewholders, +restraining the authorities of the +church from pulling it down, as they +were going to use the materials in the +erection of a new church on a different +site. On the answer, the injunction was +dissolved on the ground that if the complainants +had rights which would be violated, +there was a remedy at law and that +the nature and extent of the injury were +not such as called for the interposition of +[pg 140] +a court of equity by injunction.444 Where +a parish abandons an old church and builds +a new one it does not become liable to any +pewholder for damages by reason thereof +unless it has acted wantonly or intentionally +to injure the pewholder.445 But when it becomes +necessary for the purpose of repairing +or remodeling a church, to destroy old pews, +a pew built by a member under contract with +the church can not be removed or destroyed +without compensation.446 Pew rights are +subject to the right of the parish to pull +down and rebuild a church either as a matter +of necessity or expediency, but in the +latter case the owner of a pew is entitled to +payment.447 A pewholder has only the right +to occupy his pew during public worship, +and when the church has become so out of +repair that it can not be used for public worship, +the owner of a pew can recover only +nominal damages for injuries to his pew.448 +

+ +

+246. Selling Pew on Execution.—In an +action to recover the value of a pew sold at +auction, the merits of the case will be tried +according to the law of the land.449 It is +[pg 141] +doubtful whether a pew in a church can be +sold for private debts of the pewholder.450 +It depends somewhat upon the title and +State law of exemptions.451 To render an +attachment of a pew valid, it is not necessary +for the officer to come in sight of the +pew or even to enter the church.452 +

+ +

+247. Members, Pew.—Members of the +congregation may be required to pay for a +pew or sitting in the church, and where a +priest ejected a member from the church because +he would not rent a pew, he was sustained +by the court.453 +

+ +

+248. Free Church, Seats, Lease.—The +trustees of a free church may assign seats +and forcibly remove one from a seat without +authority.454 Where a pew is real estate, +a pewholder may acquire the right to it by +prescription in the usual way.455 Where +pews are not rented and the members support +the church by voluntary subscriptions, +they have equal right to the occupancy of +the pews. But where the church builds the +pews and rents them, a man paying rent for +a pew holds it under lease in the nature of +a lease to real estate. However, he does +[pg 142] +not obtain all the rights of a lessee of land, +and in many cases a rule of the church governs +the holding of pews, which will be +observed by the State courts.456 +

+ +

+249. Executors, Pew-Rent.—The executors +of a pew owner are not bound to pay +pew-rent accrued after the owner's death. +

+ +

+250. Voting, Pew-Rent, Arrears.—Where +a church is incorporated and by its charter +or the laws of the State it has authority to +make reasonable by-laws, a by-law which +prohibits any person from voting whose +pew-rent is in arrears for more than two +years, is valid.457 +

+ +
+ +[pg 143] + +
+ + +

Chapter XXI. Property

+ +

+251. Unincorporated, Trustee.—The +question whether an unincorporated religious +society may take a gift or devise, is +determined by the law of domicile.458 Generally +an unincorporated religious association +can not hold property in its assumed name, +but it must be held by conveyance in trust +to a trustee named.459 +

+ +

+252. Charter, By-Laws.—When the +charter or by-laws of a church corporation +provide that they may be altered, such +changes may, after the execution and delivery +of a deed, immediately adhere to the +title.460 +

+ +

+253. Suits, Corporation, Members.—Cases +may occur in which the corporation +in its corporate capacity, or the society in +its collective capacity, may be a plaintiff or +a defendant in a suit between it and one or +[pg 144] +more members of the religious society in +their individual capacity or in their collective +capacity, in a quasi-conspiracy or concerning +other torturous acts, or a collective +contract.461 +

+ +

+254. Deed, Court, Title.—A deed made +in pursuance of an order of a court having +jurisdiction passes good title.462 +

+ +

+255. Subscription, Lots.—Any one may +convey title to a church as his part of the +subscription by merely marking it on a plat +made by him, as lots donated to such +church.463 +

+ +

+256. Misnomer, Identity.—The misnomer +of a religious society or corporation +will not invalidate a mortgage where the +identity of the society can be clearly shown.464 +

+ +

+257. Adverse Possession, Color of Title.—A +religious corporation may obtain title +to land by adverse possession. The length +of such possession is determined by the laws +of the State, the usual period being twenty +years.465 Unless the laws of the State require +it, color of title at the time of asserting adverse +possession need not be shown.466 +

+ +[pg 145] + +

+258. Sale, Restrictions.—In some States +when not restricted by the laws of the organization +the parish corporation may sell +the premises in order to pay the church +debts. However, it is not a common law +right.467 +

+ +

+259. Deed.—A deed to “The Evangelical +Order of Christians” was sufficiently +definite for a valid conveyance.468 +

+ +

+260. Error.—A clerical error in the +name of the grantee will not make a deed +void. However, when such error has been +discovered, it should be corrected.469 +

+ +

+261. Mortgage, Bishop, Debts.—The +archbishop of a church to which property +is bequeathed, can not mortgage it without +authority from the church or under the +law.470 Also, the bishop of a diocese to +whom land had been conveyed in trust for +a particular congregation, could not execute +a valid mortgage thereon to secure his own +indebtedness.471 But a religious society in +the absence of prohibitionary legislation, +has power to mortgage its property to secure +its debts.472 +

+ +[pg 146] + +

+262. Deed, Trust, Fee.—A deed of land +to a Catholic bishop and his heirs and assigns +forever in trust for a Catholic parish +for the purpose of a free burial ground, +gave the bishop an estate in fee.473 +

+ +

+263. Debts, Creditors.—A committee of +a religious society authorized to sell lands +to raise money to pay its general debts, is +not authorized to execute a mortgage for +the purpose of securing various creditors +holding claims; and the defect in such mortgage +is not cured by a vote at a subsequent +meeting to which the committee made a report +of its action.474 +

+ +

+264. Mortgage or Sale, Notice, Consent.—Whenever +there is to be a mortgage or +sale of the church property, if it is to be +done by the corporation, it must be done +strictly in accordance with the charter and +laws of the corporation, and if those do not +provide therefor, every member should receive +a reasonable notice to attend a meeting +of the congregation and the question should +be submitted to such meeting and a vote +taken thereon. If all the proceedings are +regular and the proper officers (president +and secretary) of the corporation be authorized +[pg 147] +to make a conveyance, it is good in law.475 +However, if the irregular acts of officers or +members of a congregation are subsequently +ratified in a lawful manner, they become +binding.476 When consent of the court is +required, it must be obtained.477 +

+ +

+265. Title, Taxes, Judicial Notice.—If +the title is in the bishop in fee in accordance +with church law it is not “owned by any +religious association” and is liable for taxes. +The laws of the Catholic Church are not +the subject of judicial notice, but must be +alleged and proved as any other fact.478 +

+ +

+266. Title, Diocese, Rule.—Where the +title to the property of the diocese was in +the bishop for the use of the church and +subsequently the diocese was incorporated, +the bishop was not divested of title and it +was still necessary to have the property conveyed +by deed.479 In some other States, however, +the contrary rule prevails.480 +

+ +

+267. Priest, Deed, Funds.—Where it +was claimed that a priest purchased lands +and took the deed in his own name and paid +[pg 148] +therefor with funds belonging to the congregation, +the conveyance will not be decreed +by the court only upon the clearest +and most satisfactory evidence.481 +

+ +

+268. Monks, Missions, Title.—The fact +that the monks or priests were at the head +of the missions in California when it was +acquired by the United States, does not +prove that the Catholic Church had universal +ownership of the property.482 The +acts of Congress giving the city of San Antonio +authority to sell public lands, was intended, +no doubt, to dispose of mission property, +but it was held not to affect the Catholic +Church, the title to which had been confirmed +by another act of Congress.483 +

+ +

+269. Texan Revolution, Land.—At the +time of the Texan Revolution, a Catholic +church held no real estate of perfect title, +but enjoyed only the use of the land that it +possessed and continued so to occupy after +the admission of Texas into the Union.484 +

+ +

+270. Priest, Agent, Deed.—The priest +in charge of a congregation is the agent of +the archbishop, and where the title to the +real estate is conveyed by absolute deed to +the bishop, the congregation, against the +[pg 149] +protest of the priest and without obtaining +leave from the bishop, has no right to tear +down a church for the purpose of rebuilding +or repairing it.485 And a priest in charge +of mission property may maintain in his +name an action to recover its possession.486 +

+ +

+271. Devise, Uncertainty.—A devise of +property “to the Roman Catholic Orphans” +of a certain diocese, making the bishop of +the diocese executor of the will and giving +him power to sell the property and use the +proceeds for the benefit of the Roman +Catholic orphans, is void for uncertainty.487 +

+ +

+272. Donor, Ambiguous Provision.—The +religious convictions of the donor may +be shown for the purpose of construing an +ambiguous provision of a deed or will.488 +

+ +

+273. Trust, Evidence.—Without any +trust being declared in writing, parol evidence +can not be allowed to prove that the +Catholic Church and parsonage is held in +trust for the congregation by the bishop of +the diocese, notwithstanding that the +moneys for purchasing the lands and putting +up such buildings were collected by +subscriptions and contributions made to the +priest in charge under the law, usage, and +[pg 150] +polity of the Roman Catholic Church.489 At +common law land may be granted to pious +uses before there is a grantee to take it. In +the meantime, the title is in abeyance.490 +Where the title to parsonage lands is in the +minister as a sole corporation, on his death +the title remains in abeyance until a successor +is appointed.491 +

+ +

+274. Money, Control.—Money raised by +a Catholic congregation for the purpose of +building a church does not come under the +absolute control of the bishop or priest, +although put into the hands of the latter for +safe keeping. It is subject to the control of +the congregation, although the members of +the congregation refused to obey the command +of the bishop of the diocese to consolidate +with another church to which the +priest was removed.492 +

+ +

+275. Church, Building, Removing.—Where +subscriptions were secured to build +a church at a particular place as a memorial +to a certain person, a congregation may be +enjoined from tearing down the building +and removing it to another place.493 But a +court of equity will not prevent the removal +[pg 151] +of a church where a majority of the congregation +favors it, although a legal meeting +had not been held to determine the +matter.494 +

+ +

+276. Church, Use, Division.—A church +guild that erected a building adjoining a +church for parish purposes, with the assent +of the congregation, can not deny the authority +of the church and use the building +for other purposes.495 But if members are +improperly excluded from the use of the +church property they must appeal to the +courts for redress and can not resort to acts +of trespass to gain entrance into a church.496 +A court of equity will compel persons having +charge of the temporalities of a church, +whether incorporated or not, to faithfully +perform their trust and to prevent the diversion +of the property from its original +purposes. The court will not interfere in +strictly religious matters.497 +

+ +

+277. Spanish Territory.—When Alabama +was a part of Spanish territory, a deed +of land “to His Catholic Majesty for the +[pg 152] +purpose of building thereon a parochial +church and dwelling-house for the officiating +priest,” the money being paid out of the +royal treasury, did not constitute the King +of Spain a trustee for the church or transfer +to the church in equity a title to the +lots.498 +

+ +

+278. Trust, Purposes, Doctrines.—When +a conveyance of a lot is made to certain +persons of a religious society and their +successors in trust for religious purposes, +all the members become beneficiaries in equal +degree notwithstanding some of them may +have contributed larger sums than others.499 +Land conveyed to a church for valuable consideration +belongs to the church, whatever +change may take place in its religious doctrines; +and if a minority secedes on the +ground that they are the ones who retain the +original tenets of the church, they can not +take with them either the whole or pro rata +share of the church property.500 +

+ +

+279. Control, Revenues.—The trustees +of a corporation of a church or of a religious +society have entire control over the revenues +of such body.501 +

+ +[pg 153] + +

+280. Leave to Purchase, Title, Canons +of the Church.—A congregation wanted to +buy a church and priest's house, but the +archbishop refused leave to purchase, but +granted permission to keep the premises for +religious purposes for a time. The members +formed a society and bought and took +title in the name of the “Lithuanian Benefit +Society of St. Anthony.” Then the archbishop +wrote them a letter requiring the +deed of the premises to be put in his name, +which the congregation refused to do. A +part of the congregation brought a suit in +equity to enforce the transfer from the society +to the archbishop. The court held +that if the congregation was under the +church and acknowledged its authority, the +title must be settled by the canons of the +church; otherwise, the majority of the congregation, +in a duly called meeting, should +determine where the title should be vested.502 +

+ +

+281. Cemetery, Authority.—When a +congregation that had title to a cemetery +for many years entrusted the management +and sale of the lots to the priest, he had +thereby authority to create servitudes, such +as alleys to lots, which become binding on +the congregation and all third persons.503 +

+ +[pg 154] + +

+282. Real Estate, Purpose.—A church +has no power to acquire and hold real estate +for any purpose other than that of promoting +the object of its creation, and any contract +entered into for a purchase of real +estate as a matter of speculation is ultra +vires and void.504 +

+ +

+283. Limitation, Lands.—A statute of +the State prohibiting a religious society +from holding more than twenty acres, applies +to a single parish or congregation and +not to the entire denomination when it consists +of more than one congregation.505 +

+ +

+284. Conditions, Bequest, Deed, Time.—Where +property has been devised for a +particular purpose or on certain conditions +attached thereto, the law may be invoked to +protect the fund according to the bequest.506 +And where a deed contained a clause that +the lots should never be sold nor used in any +other way except for the benefit of a specified +Protestant Church, although the deed +contained no clause of forfeiture, when the +congregation sold the property the grantor +was entitled to have the deed set aside and +the title re-vested in himself.507 And a grant +[pg 155] +made upon condition that a church be +erected thereon, prevents the grantee from +conveying it for other purposes without the +consent of the grantor or his heirs.508 But +where a devise was made on condition that +a church be built on the property within +three years, the provision being a condition +subsequent, a court has the right to extend +the time.509 +

+ +

+285. Will, Forfeiture.—The provision in +a will or deed that land shall be used for +purposes of a certain church, may create a +trust for the benefit of the church only and +not a condition the breach of which would +work a forfeiture.510 When a condition is +put in a deed that it shall be forever used as +a burial ground for the interment of bodies, +it is doubtful whether the grantor and +grantee together may change the uses of the +property. Therefore, it is important in +taking deeds to cemeteries to have no condition +whatever, unless such conditions are +desired.511 +

+ +

+286. Condition, Quit-Claim.—After conveying +land upon a specified condition, the +grantor then gave a quit-claim deed, and the +[pg 156] +court held that that relieved the grant from +the condition.512 +

+ +

+287. Bishop, Trust, Successors.—A +deed of land to the bishop of a church for a +Protestant Episcopal church in fee simple, +created a trust and on the death of such +bishop the title passed to his successors.513 +Where a grantee in a deed absolute on its +face, is in fact archbishop of the Roman +Catholic Church for his diocese, its canons +and decrees regulating the mode of acquiring +and holding church property are competent +evidence to show that the property is +so held in trust for purposes for public worship +and other charitable uses. And property +so held by a Catholic bishop in trust for +the diocese, or in trust for a congregation, +school, cemetery, or asylum, for the separate +use of each, is not chargeable with any part +of the expenses of another one or for improving +the church property generally in the +diocese.514 +

+ +

+288. Trustees, Vacancy.—When land is +conveyed to certain persons as trustees of a +church and their successors lawfully appointed, +a court of equity will not step in to +fill a vacancy but will leave that to be filled +[pg 157] +by the church in accordance with its discipline.515 +But an attempt to sell real estate of +a religious society against the provisions of +its charter, will be prevented by a court of +equity.516 +

+ +

+289. Church, Majority, Change.—When +property is conveyed to a church having a +well-known doctrine, faith, and practice, a +majority of the members has not the authority +or power by reason of a change of religious +views to carry the property thus dedicated +to a new and different doctrine.517 +

+ +

+290. Title, Harmony, Division.—The +title to church property in a divided congregation +is in that part of the congregation +which acts in harmony with the law of the +denomination; and the ecclesiastical laws +and principles which were accepted among +them before the dispute began, are the standard +for determining which party is right.518 +In other cases the division of church property, +where there is a division of the congregation, +depends upon its particular facts.519 +Where $400 was bequeathed to a Lutheran +[pg 158] +congregation in S——, there being at the +time of the making of the will but one Lutheran +congregation in the place, but subsequently +a majority of the trustees and members +with the pastor left the church and +built a new one, the old church continued +vested with the title to the property and all +its funds.520 +

+ +

+291. Perversion, Misuse, Suit.—Unless +there is substantial departure from the purpose +of the trust which amounts to a perversion +of it, a court of equity will not interfere +to prevent the misuse or abuse of a +trust of a religious nature. In actions in the +State court, if the church is not incorporated, +an action should be brought in the names of +the members collectively, and if they are too +numerous to be all named, the suit may be +brought in the name of one or more of them +for the whole. The same rules apply to religious +societies when sued. However, in +some dioceses, particularly in the Catholic +Church, the title to the church property is +in the bishop and he thereby becomes an interested +party who must be made either a +plaintiff or a defendant.521 +

+ +

+292. Rights, Contracts, Torts, Crimes.—Vested +property rights, contracts, torts, +[pg 159] +and crimes, are usually subject to the laws +of the State and the control and judgment +of a church tribunal is seldom final. While +the State courts have no ecclesiastical jurisdiction +and can not revise or question ordinary +acts of church discipline, they have the +power to adjudicate conflicting claims of +parties to the church property or the use +of it.522 +

+ +

+293. Cemetery, Assessments.—Where a +lot was bought for the purpose of building a +church but was used for a cemetery, and a +church was built at another place and the +deed to the lot was taken in the name of the +trustees, the pastor and a member of the +church corporation were not the proper +parties to bring an action to restrain the +State from selling the lot to pay the assessments +for pavement, as they had no legal or +equitable interest for the protection of which +they could claim the interposition of a court +of equity.523 +

+ +

+294. Burned, Revert, Vested.—The fact +that a church on lands donated to the parish, +on condition of sustaining the church, +burned down, the title did not revert to the +grantor's heirs.524 Also land granted a bishop +for church uses, vested immediately in him +[pg 160] +and was not forfeited because it was not +used for church purposes.525 +

+ +

+295. Abandoned, Revert.—Land granted +to trustees and their successors forever in +trust to erect a Methodist church, according +to its rules and discipline, which was used +for such church for a long time and then +abandoned and sold to parties who converted +it into a blacksmith shop, did not thereupon +revert in the absence of a provision to that +effect.526 +

+ +

+296. Uses and Trusts.—The chapter of +the Wisconsin statutes on religious societies, +although not included in the same title as +the chapter abolishing all uses and trusts +excepting as therein created, was not intended +to prohibit the trusts expressly authorized +by the former.527 +

+ +

+297. Trust Funds, Account.—Where a +member of the church received funds to invest +in his own name for the benefit of the +church, he will be obliged in a court of equity +to give full account for the money and its +profits.528 +

+ +

+298. Fund, Diverted, Split.—A fund +created for a particular purpose, as the education +of children in the faith and doctrines +[pg 161] +of a denomination at the time the fund is +created, can not be diverted from its original +object.529 Neither can such a fund be split +up when a congregation is divided, but must +be retained as created.530 +

+ +

+299. Church, Personalty.—A church removed +from its foundation and put on rollers +was severed from the realty and became personal +property.531 +

+ +

+300. Lease, Purposes.—A religious literary +society and scientific corporation has +power to lease part of a building owned by +it for theatrical and operatic purposes.532 +

+ +

+301. Salary, Lien, Equity.—The church +building and the land on which it stands have +been held subject to the payment of a debt +due for the salary of a pastor of the congregation +owning such property.533 A contractor +is entitled to a lien on the church +property for work done on the building.534 +A person who became liable for the debts of +the congregation incurred in the purchase +of church property, obtained relief in equity +[pg 162] +by subjecting the church property to a +sale.535 +

+ +

+302. Bankruptcy, Creditors.—There is +no provision of law for a church corporation +to make an assignment in bankruptcy. However, +the church corporation may be sued +and a receiver appointed to take possession +of the property and sequester the assets.536 +But where assignments in bankruptcy and a +sale and conveyance of church property are +lawful, the church property may be assigned +for the benefit of the creditors.537 +

+ +

+303. Jurisdiction, Process.—In order to +obtain jurisdiction where there are contentions +between various persons claiming to be +officers, the only safe rule is to serve the +process on all those who are in the offices or +claim the offices upon the occupants of which +the papers must be served.538 +

+ +

+304. States, Property, Restrictions.—Some +States restrict the quantity and use of +property that a religious society or church +may hold. Other States have no restrictions; +but nearly all the States have some +statutory law on the subject, which is +changed so frequently that it would be useless +[pg 163] +to give the provisions of such law in +this work.539 +

+ +

+305. Land, Limitation.—A statute of +Illinois relating to Catholic societies contains +no limitations on property rights, but +it was held that the general law applied, and +that an organization having ten acres could +not acquire additional land by devise. A +conveyance of land to a corporation after it +has taken all the land allowed by law, is +void.540 In Kentucky where a church is limited +to fifty acres and a devise was made to +a church for the benefit of foreign missions, +it was held valid under a statute providing +that all devises for relief of aged, impotent, +poor people, churches, or for any other +charitable or humane purposes, shall be +valid.541 Maryland's peculiar law by which +leave must be obtained from the Legislature +for a conveyance of more than two acres of +land, has been construed to give the Legislature +authority to ratify a conveyance that +otherwise would be void under the statute.542 +Also, it was held in the same case that a +church might acquire more land, but that +[pg 164] +it would be restricted with regard to its use. +A statute prohibiting a religious society +from holding more than twenty acres of +land applied to a single religious society and +not to the denomination.543 Where the territorial +law provided that no religious corporation +should hold real estate of greater +value than $50,000, a receiver was appointed +for the Mormon corporation.544 +

+ +

+306. Corporations, Bequests.—Foreign +religious corporations may be entitled to recover +bequests made to them in some States; +but the general rule is that a foreign religious +society has no better right to take property +by devise than a domestic corporation.545 +When the statute requires a conveyance to +specify the purpose for which a religious +society takes land, the failure to so specify +renders the deed void.546 But the Young +Men's Christian Association was declared +not within the limitation because it was not +formed for pecuniary benefit and profit and +was not under the control of any one denomination +nor formed for religious worship.547 +

+ +[pg 165] + +

+307. Collateral Attack.—A devise of +land to a religious society which will increase +the title beyond the amount that is allowed +by statute, can not be attacked collaterally +by a private individual.548 It is for the State +and not for the individual to make inquiry +into excess on the part of a religious society +in its accumulation.549 +

+ +
+ +[pg 166] + +
+ + +

Chapter XXII. Religious Services

+ +

+308. Worship, Discipline, Innovations.—The +denomination itself, according to its +rules and regulations, determines what +services shall form a part of its public worship. +The inferior authority in the church +has no right to violate the discipline by innovations. +Whether or not devotional singing +may be accompanied with instrumental +music, must be determined by those who administer +the discipline of the church.550 +

+ +

+309. Doctrines, Temporal Affairs.—The +fact that the congregation sells the pews +does not give the owners the right to determine +what doctrines shall be preached in +the church, nor who shall preach them.551 A +majority of a local church can not change +the faith of the church against the protest +of the minority.552 The corporation of the +congregation is governed by the majority +only in temporal affairs.553 However, some +[pg 167] +of the Protestant churches are so independent +that a vote of the congregation may +transfer them from one denomination to +another.554 +

+ +

+310. Contributions, Presbyterians, Methodists.—Where +certain persons by contributions +built a church and the title was taken +and held by the Presbyterians who permitted +all other denominations to hold services +therein, all of which was a condition of the +subscriptions for establishing the church, +when the Presbyterians sold out to the Methodists +and they held it for their own exclusive +use, those who contributed the money +had the right to resort to the court to enforce +their rights to worship in such church.555 +

+ +

+311. True Religion, Courts.—Ordinarily +the civil courts do not interfere where +there is a question as to which of two or +more parties is adhering to the true religious +teaching of the denomination. If no +question of property or civil rights arises, +the court will not interfere.556 +

+ +

+312. Heresy, Injunction.—Where a minister +did not preach the doctrine and the +entire system of Calvinistic theology received +and taught by that denomination, he +[pg 168] +had no right to the pulpit of the church, and +the court granted an injunction against his +officiating therein.557 +

+ +

+313. Bequest, Sects, Condition.—Where +a bequest was made to erect a place of worship +with the privilege for other sects to +worship therein and forever to be used as +such, the trustees in whom the title vested +had no authority to sell without the consent +of the grantor or his heirs; and the congregation +having sold the church property and +it having been thereafter used for a store, +the grantor's heirs had a right of entry for +condition broken.558 +

+ +

+314. Sexton, Undertaker, Authorities.—The +sexton who has charge of the church +property may lawfully remove from the +church an undertaker who, after being +warned to desist and leave, persists in conducting +the funeral in violation of rules prescribed +by the authorities of the church.559 +

+ +
+ +[pg 169] + +
+ + +

Chapter XXIII. Bequests, Devises, And Gifts

+ +

+315. Statutes, Wills.—In some States a +religious society can not take under a will, +and a bequest of money to a church is void.560 +In Connecticut any devise to a religious corporation +not expressly authorized by statute, +is void.561 In Maryland leave to devise land +to a religious society must be obtained from +the Legislature.562 In all the States it is +safest to consult and carefully follow the +statute in drawing a will. +

+ +

+316. Masses, Alabama.—Formerly as a +rule of the English common law, it was held +that bequests and devises for the purpose of +having Masses said for the soul of the deceased, +were void as superstitious uses; but +under Article 1 of the Amendments to the +United States Constitution, and under similar +provisions in the constitutions of the +several States, the English rule does not +prevail in the United States. However, Alabama +[pg 170] +adopted the English rule.563 By reading +the foot-note to the Alabama case, it will +be found that a majority of the States hold +that such bequests are lawful.564 Even in +Alabama if the bequest had been to a clergyman +or a certain person and accompanied by +a request to say Masses, the court might +have allowed it.565 +

+ +

+317. Name, Bequest, Corporation.—A +mistake in a name does not render a bequest +or a gift void if the person intended can be +identified.566 Also, a devise may be made to +a corporation not yet organized and when it +is organized the gift or devise will vest. +During the interim, it will remain in abeyance.567 +

+ +

+318. Clergyman, Undue Influence.—A +clergyman who is a grantee in a deed from a +parishioner, although deriving no benefit +therefrom, has the burden of showing good +faith in the transaction as the law presumes +that he is guilty of undue influence. This +presumption is further strengthened by +proof of the enfeebled condition of the +[pg 171] +grantor by age and illness and his susceptibleness +to influence. Where the property +conveyed in trust for the parish was greatly +in excess of its needs, the deed was set +aside.568 +

+ +

+319. Contest, Secession.—In case of a +devise to a church which is claimed by two +societies, it is the duty of the court to decide +in favor of those who adhere to the ecclesiastical +government of the church which was +in operation at the time the trust was declared.569 +However, to maintain such action +it must be brought by the proper parties.570 +

+ +

+320. Bequests, Membership.—Bequests +left to individuals on condition that they +shall remain members of a certain church, +can be obtained only by complying with such +condition.571 +

+ +

+321. Conditions, Religious Tenets.—In +order to determine the conditions of a trust +the religious tenets of the donor may be +shown to aid in construction of ambiguous +provisions.572 +

+ +

+322. Name, Uncertainty.—A bequest to +Georgetown University, in the District of +Columbia, which was incorporated under the +[pg 172] +name of “The President and Directors of +Georgetown College,” is not void for uncertainty, +as the only institution of learning in +the District of Columbia is Georgetown +College.573 +

+ +

+323. Future Uses, Uncertainty.—A devise +to a foundling or eleemosynary institution, +whenever the Christians should create +one which the trustees approved, is valid.574 +And a devise to the “First Christian church +erected or to be erected in the village of Telfairville, +in Burke county, or to such persons +as may become trustees of the same,” is +good as a charitable bequest.575 A bequest to +a priest to hold in trust and pay over to the +Sisters for the Poor, is valid.576 A bequest +for the care of a tombstone is valid in some +States and not in others without a statutory +provision.577 A bequest to the bishop “to be +by him used for Roman Catholic charitable +institutions in his diocese,” sufficiently describes +the beneficiaries and is good.578 Also, +a bequest to Bishop England “in trust for +the Ladies of the Ursuline Order residing +in Charleston in the State of South Carolina,” +was held for “The Ladies of the Ursuline +[pg 173] +Community of the city of Charleston.”579 +A bequest for Masses “to a Roman Catholic +priest that shall succeed me in this place,” +was held void for uncertainty.580 A bequest +in trust to a bishop by name to sell and give +the proceeds to a society named, is not a +devise to the society, but to the bishop in +trust.581 +

+ +

+324. Education, Priesthood.—A devise +or bequest to a clergyman of property to be +used for the education of poor Catholic boys +for the priesthood, was sustained in court as +sufficiently definite for performance.582 +

+ +

+325. Charitable Trust, Cy-Pres.—Equity +will not allow a charitable trust to fail for +want of a trustee, but will appoint one.583 +The doctrine of cy-pres as applied to charitable +gifts and trusts, is not in force in Alabama, +Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, +Maryland, Iowa, New York, North Carolina, +nor Wisconsin; but seems to prevail in +California, Illinois, Massachusetts, Missouri, +Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island. +

+ +

+326. Error, Ambiguity.—Great latitude +is allowed in charitable bequests, devises, +and gifts, in proving aliunde the beneficiary +[pg 174] +intended where there is error in the name or +a latent ambiguity.584 The religion of the +testator will be considered in proving intention. +

+ +

+327. Dissolution, Resulting Trust.—On +dissolution of a religious society, the money +collected or derived from the sale of property +goes back as a resulting trust to the +contributors.585 +

+ +

+328. Charity, Institutions.—To determine +what is a charitable trust, devise, or +gift, it is necessary to particularly bear in +mind the most comprehensive definition of +charity. Legacies for schools, churches, +libraries, cemeteries, the poor, hospitals, and +numerous other eleemosynary institutions, +have been sustained under charitable bequests +when they otherwise would have +failed.586 +

+ +
+ +[pg 175] + +
+ + +

Chapter XXIV. Taxation

+ +

+329. Purposes, Exempt.—Only church +property that is actually used for church or +charitable purposes, is exempt from taxation. +Property held for its increase or profit +is not exempt.587 Land bought for a church +on which no work on the church is yet begun, +is not exempt from taxation.588 +

+ +

+330. Lot Isolated, Not Exempt.—A lot +isolated from the other property of the +church of a congregation, is not exempt because +the congregation intends to build a +church thereon in the future, and actually +did build a church thereon two years later.589 +

+ +

+331. Bishop's Residence, Hospital.—Real +property the title to which is in the +archbishop in fee in accordance with the +discipline of the Catholic Church, is not +owned by a religious association so as to +exempt it from taxation. The records do +not show a trust for the diocese nor any +other beneficiary. A court will not take +[pg 176] +judicial notice of the laws of the Catholic +Church.590 But property used as a hospital +to care for the sick and wounded of all races +and religions indiscriminately, with or without +pay according to the ability of the +patient, is a benevolent institution engaged +in a work of charity, and comes under the +law of tax exemption.591 +

+ +

+332. Parsonage, Rented.—A parsonage +owned by a congregation and used only as a +residence for the clergyman is not exempt +because of some part of it being also used +for alleged religious services, to-wit: morning +prayers of the children before school, a +sewing society, and a meeting place for Sunday-school +teachers.592 However, a house and +lot rented and kept by the minister was exempt +from taxation.593 +

+ +

+333. Masonic Order, Charity, Elks.—A +charity which is confined exclusively to the +members of the Masonic Order and their +families or to the widows and children of +deceased members or those who are directly +or indirectly connected with the society, is +not purely a public charity within the provisions +of the constitution relating to the +[pg 177] +exemption of institutions of purely public +charity from taxation.594 And property held +by the Elks for entertainment and to promote +social intercourse was held not exempt.595 +

+ +

+334. Supporting Church, Mississippi.—In +the early ages of the States several of +them had laws for taxing all the property +in parishes laid out by the State for the +support of Protestant churches. Gradually +these laws were eliminated and at the present +time there is probably no State excepting +Mississippi that uses money for the support +of a church. Maine changed her laws in +1821, and other States followed from time +to time.596 While those taxes were collected, +no land within the parish was exempt in +some States and in others the property of a +non-resident was exempt.597 In New Hampshire +and Pennsylvania, a person could not +be compelled to pay the taxes to a denomination +of which he was not a member.598 +

+ +

+335. Appropriations, Contracts, Rent.—Under +the constitution of the United States, +[pg 178] +Congress can not make appropriations nor +give aid to any denomination. Also, similar +provisions are in many of the constitutions +of the States. However, many cases arise +out of contracts, which border upon these +various rules, and in some States the constitutional +provision of the State is such that +the State Legislature may legislate concerning +religions and give certain aid and support +thereto. Paying rent to a congregation +for a school-room is not an appropriation or +aid to a church contrary to the constitution.599 +

+ +
+ +[pg 179] + +
+ + +

Chapter XXV. Eleemosynary Institutions

+ +

+336. Poor, Institutions, Negligence.—As +hospitals, homes for the poor, and other +eleemosynary institutions are supported by +money given to charity, it would be a diversion +of the trust funds if such institutions +could be compelled to pay damages for negligence +causing personal injury or death. +The general rule is that the person causing +the injury may be liable, but not the institution.600 +However, a charitable institution has +been held liable for negligence of its manager +to notify a nurse of the contagious +nature of a case assigned to her.601 +

+ +

+337. Surgeon, Gratuitous Services.—A +charitable medical institution is not liable for +the negligence of its surgeon in operating +upon a patient gratuitously where such institution +exercises due care in employing a +surgeon deemed competent. The fact that +besides such gratuitous services, medicine is +taught therein for tuition fees and patients +who are able to pay are charged a small fee +[pg 180] +for room, board, nursing, etc., but no fee +from the patient to the doctor, does not +change it from a charitable institution.602 +However, a hospital that is an adjunct to +a medical school is liable.603 +

+ +

+338. Charitable Institution.—An institution +that limits its benefactions to the +members of a particular denomination is, +in the absence of a statute to the contrary, +a charitable institution.604 This rule has exceptions.605 +

+ +

+339. Charter, Real Estate.—The trustees +of a religious, literary, or other benevolent +society, can not, irrespective of the powers +granted by its charter, purchase and hold +real estate under trusts of their own creation +which will protect their property from creditors.606 +

+ +

+340. Mortmain, Title, Trust.—The +statute of mortmain was never in force in +Pennsylvania, so a religious corporation can +hold the legal title to land in trust for the +heir-at-law of a testator who has devised it +to the corporation in trust for uses that +[pg 181] +were void under the English law.607 The only +States that have statutes of mortmain are +Mississippi and North Carolina. Yet in +those States the statutes are somewhat different +from the law of England. +

+ +

+341. Public Institutions, Support.—Benevolent +and charitable institutions under +a church are not public institutions, and +moneys can not be appropriated for their +support.608 +

+ +

+342. Nuns, Vows, Property.—When +joining a society of nuns, one of the vows +taken was that all property should be held +in common and whatever property was received +after taking the vows should belong +to the society. A person who left the order +was not concluded from making claim for +her property.609 +

+ +
+ +[pg 182] + +
+ + +

Chapter XXVI. Schools

+ +

+343. Parent, Education, State, Parochial +Schools.—The right of the parent to use +judgment as to the proper necessaries of his +child, including board, lodging, and education, +is generally conceded. However, there +must be no abuse of these parental rights, as +the child also has rights that even a parent +can not infringe. Therefore, the State may +require a reasonable opportunity for the education +of every child; and if the parent can +not give it on account of his poverty, it is in +the power of the State to take his child in +charge and furnish him an education. The +right of the State to make laws requiring a +parent to send his child to school between +certain ages, as from four to twenty-one +years, is well settled. The question of the +parent's being obliged to send his child to +the public schools or being forbidden to send +his child to a private or parochial school, is +not settled in some States; but it is being +settled in favor of the parent. The Kentucky +constitution contains this provision: +“... nor shall any man be compelled to +[pg 183] +send his child to any school to which he may +be conscientiously opposed.”610 The right of +the State to supervise or inspect private and +parochial schools under the police power of +the State can not be questioned.611 +

+ +

+344. Orphan Asylums, School Moneys.—In +1850 the New York Legislature enacted +a law as follows: “The schools of the several +incorporated orphan asylums within the +State other than those in the city of New +York, shall participate in the distribution +of the school moneys in the same manner +and to the same extent in proportion to the +number of children educated therein, as the +common schools in their respective cities and +districts.” The court ruled that moneys devoted +by the constitution to the State for the +support of common schools could not be distributed +under the act, for the reason that +such asylums are not public schools; but +moneys from other sources might be paid +for the education of such orphan children +in proportion to their number to those educated +in the common schools of their respective +cities and districts.612 The schools +kept by the Roman Catholic Orphan Asylum +[pg 184] +Society of the city of Brooklyn, are not +common schools within the meaning of the +constitution, and a provision of law that +such schools should share in the distribution +of school moneys raised by the State was +void.613 +

+ +

+345. Contract, Direct Payment, Lease.—No +school of any denomination or sect is +entitled to public moneys for its support, +either by contract for the education of students +therein or by direct payment from the +government.614 A school conducted by the +Catholic Church in which religious instruction +is given to Catholic children is a sectarian +institution within the constitutional +provision against using public funds for +sectarian purposes; but public school money +expended for such a school conducted by +this school district could not be recovered +by suit against the school officers.615 Also, +a school maintained as a charity under direction +of trustees elected by the town where +they must be of a certain religion, is not +entitled to public moneys.616 But the lease of +a part of a parochial school building or the +basement of a church for public school purposed +[pg 185] +does not violate the law.617 In the +States of Maine, Iowa, Massachusetts, Illinois, +Ohio, Kansas, and Texas, the reading +of the King James Bible and the singing of +hymns and saying prayers have been held +not sectarian.618 But in Wisconsin, the court +ruled the other way.619 +

+ +

+ +346. Teacher, Lord's Prayer, Exercise.—“A +public school teacher, who, for the +purpose of quieting the pupils and preparing +them for their regular studies, repeats the +Lord's Prayer and the Twenty-second +Psalm as a morning exercise, without comment +or remark, in which none of the pupils +are required to participate, is not conducting +a form of religious worship or giving +sectarian or religious instruction.”620 Substantially +the same rule applies in Pennsylvania.621 +However, similar religious exercises +conducted by Catholic teachers have +[pg 186] +generally been held sectarian and not permissible +in public schools.622 +

+ +

+347. Ohio, Directors, Bible.—The constitution +of the State of Ohio does not +enjoin nor require religious instruction or +the reading of religious books in the public +schools. The board of directors of a district +has charge of the instruction and books +to be used therein, and their official discretion +will not be interfered with. Therefore, +they were authorized to have the Bible read +at the opening of the school.623 +

+ +

+348. Public School, Bible, Prayer.—The +committee having control of a public school +may make a rule requiring the school to be +opened by reading from the Bible and +prayer every morning, and that each child +shall bow the head during such prayers; +that any scholar shall be excused from bowing +the head whose parents request it; and +when any scholar refuses to obey such rule +and his parents refuse to request that he +shall be excused, the committee may exclude +such scholar from the school.624 +

+ +[pg 187] + +

+349. Text-Books, State.—The State has +the power to grant authority to the State +Board of Education to select and prescribe +text-books to be used in the public schools +of the State.625 +

+ +

+350. Bible, Conscience, Constitution.—The +parent of a child expelled from the +public school can not maintain an action +against the school committee by whose orders +it was done. In the same case it was +held that a rule requiring every scholar to +read a particular version of the Bible, +though it may be against the conscience of +some to do so, does not violate the letter or +spirit of the constitution.626 +

+ +

+351. Schoolhouse, Sunday-School Purposes.—The +inhabitants of a school district +have no right to use the schoolhouse for religious +meeting on Sunday against the objection +of any taxpayer in the district, notwithstanding +that the officers of the district +granted such right. A taxpayer may obtain +an injunction against such use, although the +injury to him be very slight, as he has no +other remedy.627 A district school board can +not authorize the use of the schoolhouse for +any other than school purposes.628 +

+ +[pg 188] + +

+352. Child, Immoral Character.—The +school committee in order to maintain purity +and discipline, may exclude therefrom a +child whom they deem to be of licentious +or immoral character, although such character +is not manifested in acts of licentiousness +or immorality within the school.629 +

+ +

+353. Parents, Studies, Teacher.—The +requirement of a teacher that a scholar in +grammar shall write English composition is +a reasonable one, and refusal to comply +therewith in the absence of a request from +his parents that he be excused therefrom, +will justify the expulsion of a scholar from +school.630 But when a parent selects certain +studies that the law provides to be taught +for his child to study, the teacher has no +right to insist that the child shall take some +other study and inflict punishment to enforce +obedience.631 +

+ +

+354. Chastisement, Cruel.—The chastisement +of a scholar by the schoolmaster +must not be excessive or cruel, but it should +be reasonably proportioned to the offense +and within the bounds of moderation.632 +

+ +[pg 189] + +

+355. Schoolmaster, Authority.—Although +a schoolmaster has in general no +right to punish a pupil for misconduct after +the dismissal of the school for the day and +the return of the pupil to his home, yet he +may on the pupil's return to school punish +him for any misbehavior, though committed +out of school, which has a direct and immediate +tendency to injure the school and to +subvert the master's authority. The fact +that the master acted in good faith will not +excuse him from damages for the punishment +of a scholar where the punishment is +clearly excessive and unnecessary. However, +where there is a reasonable doubt the +master should have the benefit of it.633 +

+ +

+356. Force, Assistance.—And where a +scholar in school hours places himself in the +desk of the instructor and refuses to leave it +on the request of the master, the master may +immediately use such force and call to his +assistance such aid from another person as +may be necessary to remove the scholar. +The same rule would apply to any one who +is not a scholar and intrudes upon the +school.634 +

+ +

+357. White, Unmarried.—Before the +adoption of the fourteenth amendment it +[pg 190] +was necessary in most States that in addition +to the child being under twenty-one +years of age, he must be of white blood and +unmarried.635 In Ohio, negroes, Indians, +and children of less than half white blood, +were not entitled to the benefit of the school +fund; and even where this would entirely +exclude from school children not sufficient +to form a district, still it was held that +such children could not attend the white +school.636 +

+ +

+358. Facilities, the Constitution.—So +long as abundant facilities are given for the +education of all the children of a district, it +is not a violation of the constitution of the +United States to keep negro and white +people separated. The same rule applies to +courts.637 +

+ +

+359. Residents, Public Schools.—Children +in a German Protestant orphan asylum +are not “children, wards, or apprentices +of actual residents” in the district of the +asylum, and therefore are not entitled to +enter the public schools of the district.638 +

+ +[pg 191] + +

+360. Board, Majority.—Two of the +three members of a school board have no +authority to act by themselves, and their individual +agreement to dismiss a teacher is +void. A school board can only act at a duly +called meeting of the board, and then the +majority vote duly taken decides.639 +

+ +
+ +[pg 192] + +
+ + +

Chapter XXVII. Parent And Child

+ +

+361. Custody, Maternal Relatives, Father.—A +parent is entitled to the care and custody +of his child if he is competent to transact +his own business and not otherwise +unsuitable. And the mere fact that the +maternal relatives who have had the care of +the child from its birth have become attached +to it and desire to continue to care +for it and are able to secure it better advantages +than its parent, does not render +the parent unsuitable to have its care and +custody within the meaning of the statute. +Also, the want of a sympathetic nature or +cold reserve in a parent or the fact that he +is away on business a great deal of the time, +is not sufficient to render him unsuitable. +But the right of the father may be lost or +forfeited by his ill-conduct, gross ill-treatment, +cruelty, or abandonment, or when his +conduct and life are such as are injurious to +the morals and interest of his child. When +the father dies or forfeits his right for +reasons already given, the mother, if alive, +succeeds to all those rights, subject, however, +[pg 193] +to the same conditions as the father. +And in the case of a child of tender years, +the good of the child has to be regarded as +the predominant consideration.640 +

+ +

+362. Mother, Illegitimate, Father.—The +mother has a right to the care and custody +of her illegitimate child to the same extent +that a parent has to his legitimate child.641 +The putative father on the mother's death +succeeds to the mother's rights as against +the maternal relatives and may secure the +custody of the child by habeas corpus. This +rule is different from the one that prevailed +in the Roman law.642 However, when the +father has given bond for the care, support, +and education of an illegitimate child, his +right to the custody of the child may be +superior.643 +

+ +

+363. Legitimatized.—And when under a +statute a child is legitimatized by acknowledgment +or subsequent marriage, the father +has the better right to its custody.644 Usually +there are many provisions in the statutes of +the various States which substantially provide +[pg 194] +for the rights, relative and otherwise, +of the parents and child in such cases. +

+ +

+364. Punishment, Instrument, Murder.—A +parent or a person in foro domestico +or in loco parentis may give reasonable corrective +punishment with a fit instrument +to a child. But if a parent or master whips +a child so that it dies, he is guilty of manslaughter. +And if he uses lethal instruments +of punishment, he is guilty of murder.645 +Where a mother in anger threw a +poker at one child and hit and killed another +child, she was guilty of manslaughter.646 The +punishment always becomes unlawful when +it is excessive, and drunkenness is no excuse.647 +

+ +

+365. Guardian, Religion, Courts.—In +England where a child was taken from the +testamentary guardian, who after the death +of the testator changed her religion from a +Protestant to a Catholic, it was held thereby +to be incompetent to continue as guardian.648 +And in New York it was held that +where the father and mother were Catholics, +the guardian must endeavor to bring +the children up in that faith, as a guardian +will not be permitted to proselyte wards.649 +[pg 195] +But where a father who was a Catholic +allowed his child to be brought up by a maternal +aunt who was a Protestant, until the +child was fourteen years of age, the father +was not then entitled to the child's custody +for the purpose of having it instructed in +his own faith.650 Courts will not interfere +with the religion of a child, but will allow +it to be brought up in the religion of its +parents; however, the best interests of the +child will be considered by the court without +conceding everything else to its religion.651 +

+ +

+366. Convent, Consent.—A daughter +under age who entered a convent to become +a nun without the consent of her mother, +may, on a writ of habeas corpus on the petition +of her mother, be required to leave the +convent and return to her home.652 +

+ +

+367. Adoption, Rights, Duties.—Persons +of suitable age and circumstances to enter +the marital relations, may adopt a child. +When a married couple do not unite in +adopting a child, the consent of the non-adopting +spouse must be obtained. Also, +if the child's parents are living, their consent +is necessary unless they have lost their +paternal rights by abandonment or divorce. +[pg 196] +The decree of adoption may be set aside for +good cause. The adopted parent has all the +rights over and duties toward the person of +the adopted child that a natural parent has, +including necessaries and religious training. +Usually the child inherits from the adopted +parents, but the adopted parents do not inherit +from the child. The statutes on adoption +are not the same in the several States, +but they cover the subject and must be +strictly followed.653 +

+ +

+368. Infancy, Manumission, Marriage.—At +common law a person is an infant until +he is twenty-one years of age. Statutes +have modified that rule so that girls in some +States, and both girls and boys in others, +may contract marriage at an earlier age +without the parental consent. Generally, +an infant can not contract marriage without +the consent of the living parent or guardian +unless the child has been manumitted. +Where the boy was under the age of consent, +but he falsely told the priest that he +was of full age, his father had the marriage +annulled.654 +

+ +
+ +[pg 197] + +
+ + +

Chapter XXVIII. Husband And Wife

+ +

+369. Custody, Father.—A husband is entitled +to the custody of his wife against +her father, and where a son-in-law killed +his father-in-law in resisting the latter from +taking his daughter out of his (the son-in-law's) +house, the court held that it could not +be more than manslaughter; and if it were +necessary to kill to protect and maintain his +wife, the defendant was not guilty.655 But +for good cause and without malice a parent +may advise his child to leave spouse.656 +

+ +

+370. Corrective Authority, Services, +Domicile.—In America a husband gains no +right to corrective authority over his wife. +He can neither whip her nor use abusive +language to her. The same rule applies to +the wife, as they stand equal before the +law.657 However, a husband is entitled to all +the services of his wife and a promise to pay +her extra for housework can not be +[pg 198] +enforced.658 Also, the husband has the right to +determine their place of domicile, and if the +wife unreasonably refuses to accompany her +husband, it is desertion, for which he may +obtain a divorce.659 +

+ +
+ +[pg 199] + +
+ + +

Chapter XXIX. Indians

+ +

+371. Indians, Citizens, Wards.—There +are a great number of statutory provisions +concerning Indians, both in the United +States statutes and in the statutes of the +several States, most of which are not of +great importance at the present time, as the +Indians are confined to a few States. When +they become citizens of the State in which +they reside, their status is the same as other +citizens; but so long as they remain in their +tribal relations they are taken care of as +wards of the Union. +

+ +

+372. Schools, Cemeteries, Churches.—In +Oklahoma there are schools provided for +them. When a tribe cedes 160 acres to the +United States, it will give it a school for ten +years, and as much longer as it deems necessary. +Also, the Indians may have their own +cemeteries, schools, and churches, where the +Indians belong to the tribes, and they are +allowed lands therefor.660 In other States, +under the general law, the money of Indian +[pg 200] +minors may be held in the treasury by the +Secretary of the Interior and paid to parents +and guardians in such sums and at such +times as the Secretary in his discretion may +determine.661 There is no doubt that out of +those moneys, parents might pay for their +children at private schools.662 +

+ +

+373. Inspectors, Duties.—Under the +United States laws, inspectors are appointed +to visit Indian agencies and investigate all +matters concerning them and to examine all +contracts and accounts with the Indians and +make report thereon to the Secretary of the +Interior. The contracts for support of religion, +schools, and charitable institutions, +come under their duties.663 +

+ +

+374. President, Trades.—The President +may cause Indians to be instructed in trades +and agriculture and have them taught the +elementary branches.664 +

+ +

+375. Commissioner, School, Rations, +Bible, Sectarian.—Another officer of great +importance is the Commissioner of Indian +Affairs, who has most to do with the education +and schools of the Indians.665 He may +require parents and guardians to send children +[pg 201] +to school and withhold rations from +them for failure so to do. Also, there is +a fund under the control of the United +States as trustee, with which he may make +contracts for the education of Indian children +at private schools.666 However, the +jurisdiction of the commissioner over Indian +children does not extend to those off +the reservation.667 Among other provisions +of the United States statutes is the following: +“The Christian Bible may be taught +in the native language of the Indians if in +the judgment of the persons in charge of +the school it may be deemed conducive to +the moral welfare and instruction of the +pupils in such schools.”668 The Bible continues +its position among the Indians, but +appropriations for the Church are cut off +by the following provision: “It is hereby +declared to be the settled policy of the government +to hereafter make no appropriations +whatever for education in any sectarian +school.”669 +

+ +
+ +[pg 202] + +
+ + +

Chapter XXX. Juvenile Courts

+ +

+376. Reformatories, Object, Liberty.—During +the past few years juvenile courts +have been created for the purpose of committing +children to reformatories. The proceedings +are not criminal actions, but of an +equitable nature.670 However, as the object +is to deprive the child of its liberty, the +statute must be strictly construed and followed.671 +An infant can not waive a right.672 +If a child has been wrongfully committed +or is wrongfully detained, the proper remedy +for his discharge is a writ of habeas +corpus.673 +

+ +
+ +[pg 203] + +
+ + +

Chapter XXXI. Libel And Slander

+ +

+377. Confidential, Tribunal, Malice.—The +rule is that all confidential statements +made to an officer or a tribunal of the church +concerning a member in the course of +church discipline and for the good of the +church, if not made with malice, are privileged, +and no action for libel or slander can +be maintained therefor.674 +

+ +

+378. Member, Officer, Councils.—But +slanderous or libelous statements made concerning +a person not a member of the church +or made concerning a member of the church +to another member who is not either an +officer or in the councils of the church, are +actionable and the person making or publishing +such statements is liable for damages. +Also, a person who repeats a libel or +slander may be liable as though he were the +originator.675 +

+ +[pg 204] + +

+379. Official Communication, Privileged.—An +official communication between authorities +of the church or an authority and +a member of the church concerning a church +matter or church members and not made in +malice, is privileged.676 +

+ +

+380. Priest, Pastoral Duties.—Where a +priest published from the altar that “Peter +Servatius is excommunicated, because he +laid hands on the priest to put him out of +the church, and he has no more benefit of +the prayers of the church. I will not pray +for him, and consider him a lost sheep and +withdraw all my pastoral blessings from +him. If he die, the burial rights of the +church will be denied him,” such remarks +were held defamatory, unless they were +spoken in the proper discharge of the priest's +clerical and pastoral duties and without +malice; and the case should have been submitted +on the evidence to a jury.677 +

+ +

+381. Church Record, Excommunication.—An +entry of a church record that “A report +raised and circulated by A. B. against +Brother C., stating that he made him pay +a note twice, and proved by A. B. as false,” +[pg 205] +is libelous.678 But an entry of excommunication +of a member made in the record and +shown to other members, is not libelous, the +latter being properly a part of the record +and the former extraneous.679 +

+ +

+382. Will, Libel, Action.—The will of a +priest contained a statement that a relative +had received $300 from him for clothing, +maintenance, education, etc., and promised +to repay it, but paid no part of it. Then +testator bequeathed said $300 to two legatees +to collect for their own use. The relative +filed a petition asking the estate of the priest +to be held liable for a libel in the sum of +$50,000 and the court held that as the right +of action did not accrue until after the death +of the testator, there was a right of action +against the estate. As the case never got +beyond the probate court, its authority is +doubtful.680 +

+ +

+383. Language, Insane, Good Faith.—Unless +the language is used by the bishop +in the line of his duty, a statement that a +priest is irresponsible and insane, that he +was removed from his position of priest for +good reason, and that he has been guilty +of ecclesiastical disobedience, is slanderous +[pg 206] +per se. To make a communication between +a bishop and priest privileged it must have +been spoken in good faith and in belief that +the speaking of it came within the discharge +of the bishop's duty.681 +

+ +

+384. Rector, Bigamy, Tobacco, Liquor.—In +a case where the rector of an Episcopal +church called upon a man charged with +bigamy and after a private conversation the +minister wrote a letter to the district attorney +on behalf of the prisoner, it was held +not privileged because it was not made in +confidence of the relation and was not kept +as a secret.682 A letter from a church member +of one congregation to the elders of +another congregation advising them of the +unfitness of a clergyman appointed to the +latter parish, and stating that he used tobacco +and liquor, that he was an untruthful +man, and that his family was no credit to +the community, was quasi-privileged; and +in the absence of proof that the charges were +false and malicious was not actionable.683 +

+ +

+385. Newspapers, Criticisms, Priest.—A +newspaper has a right to publish criticisms +of the conduct of a priest in certain +services held in his church if no false statement +[pg 207] +of facts is given, since such conduct is +a proper subject of discussion; and if such +article contains a statement that if certain +published accounts of the conduct of the +priest are true he acted in an improper manner, +etc., it is not libelous because such facts +are not true, as it is not an affirmation of the +truth thereof. Where the alleged libel was +published in a foreign language and the correctness +of the translation was disputed, it +was an error for the judge to instruct the +jury that if the translation introduced in evidence +was correct, the defendant was liable, +since plaintiff's right to recover should not +be made to depend on the absolute accuracy +of the translation.684 +

+ +

+386. Clergyman, Discipline, Tribunals, +Testimony, Argument.—What a clergyman +says in the administration of the discipline +of the church or what is said in tribunals +to enforce discipline of the church, including +testimony and legitimate argument within +the scope of the case, if said in good faith +and without malice, is not actionable in the +civil courts.685 +

+ +

+387. Physical Discipline, Imprisonment, +Courts.—A clergyman who claims to have +been slandered by a parishioner can not administer +[pg 208] +physical discipline nor put the +offender under restraint without leaving +himself liable for damages for assault and +battery or false imprisonment. If the clergyman +desires to treat the charge as a +church matter, he must go into the church +tribunal; otherwise, his proper course is to +bring an action for slander in the State +court.686 +

+ +

+388. Sermon, False Statement, Crime.—A +clergyman may, by words used in a sermon, +slander a member of his congregation. +However, if he makes no false statement +and does not falsely or maliciously charge a +crime, what he says in the way of discipline +is privileged.687 The meaning of the words +“she is a dirty, vile woman,” can not be extended +by innuendo.688 +

+ +

+389. Charges, Robbed, Hypocrite.—Charges +that a person has robbed a church +or has stolen from a church, are actionable.689 +Also, charging a person with being a hypocrite +and using the cloak of religion for unworthy +purposes, is slanderous.690 +

+ +[pg 209] + +

+390. Investigation, Probable Cause.—When +a member of a church consents to an +investigation on complaint before a person +who is not a member, if the complaint was +made on probable cause and not under the +pretence of exposing the defendant to scorn +or obloquy, he could not subsequently bring +an action for libel.691 +

+ +

+391. Sacraments.—To publish of a person +that he has been deprived of the sacraments +of the church to which he belongs, is +libelous.692 +

+ +

+392. Obituary, Tolling Bell.—To falsely +and maliciously publish an obituary notice of +a person living, is good ground for an action +for libel.693 However, a complaint that a +church tolled its bell to announce the death +of a member, and did report him dead when +he was actually living, and that it was all +done for the purpose of annoying, harassing, +and vexing the person and his family, +was held not sufficient to support an action +for libel. The latter case is doubtful law.694 +

+ +

+393. Newspaper, Profane Swearer.—A +newspaper in a notice of the death of a +church member has the right to state that +[pg 210] +he was a profane swearer, if such was the +case.695 +

+ +

+394. Business or Property, Special Damages.—A +company incorporated for the purpose +of transacting business which would +include hospitals, schools, and industrial institutions, +may maintain an action for libel +the same as an individual for any words +affecting its business or property, if special +damages are alleged and proved.696 +

+ +

+395. Justification, Repeating.—It is no +justification that libelous matter had been +previously published by a third person, that +the name of such person was disclosed at the +time of repeating the libel, and that the person +who was repeating it believed all the +statements in the libel to be true.697 +

+ +
+ +[pg 211] + +
+ + +

Chapter XXXII. Crimes

+ +

+396. Sins, Crimes, Discipline.—Crimes +are offenses against the civil law. The fact +that the church organization may try and +punish a member for sinning, or acquit +him, has nothing whatever to do with the +administration of the criminal law of the +State. Therefore, a member may be arrested +and tried for any offense before or +after the ecclesiastical tribunal has taken +action in the matter. But there are certain +crimes of a religious nature of which +the civil law assumes jurisdiction and punishes, +such as blasphemy,698 disturbing religious +meetings,699 etc. Most of those laws are +statutory and depend wholly upon the +statute of the State where the crime is committed. +

+ +

+397. Profane Language, Smoking, Disturbance.—Rude +behavior or profane language +if audible,700 smoking in the church or +during services,701 cracking and eating nuts +[pg 212] +in church,702 and fighting near the church so +as to disturb the services, are violations of +the law.703 A father's taking his child out of +the church with violence is a disturbance of +the meeting.704 The disturbance of any member +of the congregation assembled for religious +worship is a violation of law.705 A +sentence of $100 fine or one year's imprisonment +in the penitentiary, is not excessive or +cruel or unusual punishment on conviction +for disturbing a meeting.706 +

+ +

+398. Sunday-School, Church.—An ordinary +Sunday-school where the Bible and religious +precepts are taught, is a church +within the law.707 +

+ +

+399. Private School.—A person may be +punished under the statute for wilfully disturbing +a private school kept in a district +schoolhouse for instruction in the art of +writing.708 +

+ +

+400. Disturbing a Religious Meeting.—Under +a statute against disturbing a religious +meeting, it has been held that it should +[pg 213] +define what disturbance is punishable.709 +Also, mere want of attention or observance +of ceremonies, as standing or kneeling at +times, is not a violation of the law.710 +Neither is singing out of time, unless done +purposely,711 nor performing a proper duty, +such as objecting to a silenced clergyman's +conducting the services.712 +

+ +

+401. Common Law, Offense, Statutory +Law.—If there is no statutory provision, in +those States where the common law prevailed +before the admission of the State to +the Union the offense is punishable under the +common law.713 And even in States where +there is a statutory law on the subject, a +person may be convicted at common law.714 +

+ +

+402. Services, Violation, Time.—The +nature of the services and the discipline of +the denomination may determine whether +there is a violation of the law. Usually the +disturbance may occur at any place the congregation +is assembled, and at any time +when any part of the congregation is assembled +for religious services or business.715 +

+ +[pg 214] + +

+403. Force, Priest, Preserve Order.—A +congregation may use sufficient force to remove +a disturber.716 A Catholic priest who +is the conductor of religious services and +master of ceremonies within his church has +the right to preserve order and to remove +by force, if necessary, any person who disturbs +his services.717 +

+ +

+404. Interrupt, Liquors, Traffic.—There +are statutes in most of the States making it +a penal offense to interrupt or molest any +assembly or meeting of the people for religious +worship, or to sell intoxicating +liquors or other articles of traffic within a +certain distance of any camp-meeting or +other religious assembly, except at a place +of business regularly established prior to +such meeting or assembly and not with intent +of evading the provisions of the law.718 +

+ +

+405. Theory, Blasphemy, Crime.—On +the theory that the United States is a Christian +nation, blasphemy is held to be a crime.719 +Infidels naturally claim that it interferes +with their rights. However, there is no +more interference with the private rights of +[pg 215] +the infidel than there is with the private +right of the Mormon who is forbidden to +violate the laws of the country by having a +plurality of wives; and it has been held that +any words importing imprecation for divine +vengeance may constitute profane cursing or +blasphemy.720 +

+ +

+406. Religion, God, Ridicule, Virgin.—Words +vilifying the Christian religion,721 denying +God or the final judgment,722 and profane +ridicule of the Holy Scriptures or of +Christ,723 are usually punishable. Also, the +use of vile words applied to the Virgin Mary +is blasphemy.724 +

+ +

+407. Profanity, Proof, Excuse.—The +profanity must be in the hearing of some +person.725 Every time a person profanely +swears by taking the name of God in vain is +a separate offense.726 The prisoner's confession +is sufficient proof; otherwise the prosecution +must show that the offense was committed +and some one heard the words. +

+ +[pg 216] + +

+Drunkenness is no excuse.727 Punishment by +fine or imprisonment is not in violation of +the constitution of the State or of the United +States.728 +

+ +

+408. Sunday, Business, Fishing.—The +offenses against the Sunday law are so +numerous that it would be almost impossible +to review them within the limits of this work. +Of course, the carrying on of a man's ordinary +business is a violation of the Sabbath +laws. But in some States selling cigars,729 +a butcher selling meat,730 and even selling +soda water,731 and ice cream,732 as well as +fishing, traveling, driving, using a slot machine,733 +and almost every other imaginable +act excepting going to church, has at some +time and in some State been declared a violation +of the law, and a penalty imposed +therefor. +

+ +

+In California,734 Tennessee,735 and Washington,736 +men may be shaved on Sunday. In +[pg 217] +some other States it has been held that running +a barber shop on Sunday is a violation +of the law.737 +

+ +

+409. Charity, Necessity, Benefit, Pleasure.—However, +doing works of charity and +works of necessity usually are exempt. +What is a work of necessity is a question of +law. Charity includes whatever proceeds +from the sense of moral duty or a feeling +of kindness and humanity, and is intended +wholly for the purpose of the relief or comfort +of another, and not for one's benefit or +pleasure.738 +

+ +

+410. Contracts, Marriage, Notice.—The +common law made no distinction between +Sunday and any other day as to making contracts, +but it prohibited holding court. In +this country the statutory law invariably +prohibits any but works of necessity or charity +to be done on Sunday. But marriage settlements,739 +publication of statutory notices +on Sunday,740 and promises to marry, have +been held legal.741 +

+ +[pg 218] + +

+411. Funeral, Physician, Subscriptions.—To +attend a funeral, to employ an undertaker, +or a physician, on Sunday, has been +tested in the courts, and finally decided to +be works of necessity or charity and not a +violation of the Sunday law. Also, subscriptions +made for church purposes and in +works of charity on Sunday have been held +legal and binding.742 +

+ +

+412. Jews, Seventh-Day Observers.—In +several of the States it has been held that +Jews and Seventh-Day observers of the Sabbath +must obey the Sunday law.743 However, +in many States there is a statute expressly +exempting people who keep the seventh +day of the week; but still they sometimes +have a provision, unless “he shall wilfully +disturb thereby some other person or +some religious assembly on said day.” +

+ +

+413. Societies, Secular Work.—Business +meetings of benevolent and church societies +for benevolent or church work may be held +on Sunday. Even the constitution of such +societies may be amended on Sunday. However, +secular work that does not come strictly +[pg 219] +under the functions of such societies would +be unlawful.744 +

+ +

+414. Sunday, Begins, Ends.—Usually +people believe they know what the word Sunday +means, when it begins, and when it +ends. Christianity usually recognizes the +time from midnight to midnight as Sunday, +and that is the usual time recognized +by law.745 But the solar day only,746 or from +midnight to sunset,747 give us a variety which +may not be complete. Also, we have the +further anomaly of a note made at 2 o'clock +on Saturday night, being held valid.748 +

+ +

+415. Religious Liberty, Law.—The constitutional +guarantee of religious liberty is +not violated by enforcing the Sunday law.749 +

+ +

+416. Necessaries, Doctor.—As a parent +or husband is obliged to furnish necessaries +for his children and wife, when medical +treatment becomes necessary, he is liable for +manslaughter for failure to do his duty, even +in case of religious disbelief in the efficacy +of medicine. Courts are not inclined to +[pg 220] +make any distinction as to religious belief, +and the prevailing rule in this country is +that the parent is liable if he negligently +allows his child to die when it might have +been saved by the services of a doctor.750 +

+ +

+417. Christian Healer, Consent.—A +Christian healer can not be held liable except +under a State law. One who consents to +treatment has no action for damages unless +there is a failure to exercise the care and +skill of a Christian Scientist. This rule +might not apply to one incompetent to consent +to a contract.751 +

+ +

+418. Politics.—A minister who had been +expelled by his congregation for voting the +Democratic ticket, had some of the members +of the church arrested under the election +laws for intimidating a voter. The court +held that as he “suffered no pecuniary loss, +personal injury, or physical restraint,” no +crime was committed.752 +

+ +

+419. Mail, Obscene Language.—Under +the United States postal laws against sending +“obscene, lewd or lascivious” books or +papers through the mail, a person can not +be convicted without proof that the matter is +[pg 221] +obscene, lewd, and lascivious, as the word +“or” should be construed to mean “and.” +Also, the court held that a newspaper article +on the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception +written in coarse and obscene language +that offended the religious sentiments of the +people, but had no tendency to induce sexual +immorality, did not render the newspaper +unmailable nor the publisher guilty under +the United States statutes. The court says: +“Those parts of the article most relied upon +to sustain the charge, though ostensibly a +discussion of a religious subject, are couched +in language not quite suitable for insertion +in a judicial opinion, however well adjusted +to such applause as might be expected from +taste of a certain degree of degradation.”753 +

+ +

+420. “Fair,” Chances, Gambling.—A +church “fair” at which chances are sold, +drawings had, or any game of chance permitted, +is illegal and may be punished as +gambling.754 +

+ +

Chapter XXXIII. Cemeteries

+ +

+421. Statutes, Land.—There are sufficient +statutory provisions on cemeteries to make a +large book, and the frequent changes made +in such laws render a full statement of the +law impossible. The statutes against locating +cemeteries near cities, dwellings, etc., +should be carefully examined before buying +land therefor.755 +

+ +

+422. United States, Jurisdiction.—The +jurisdiction over the United States cemeteries +is in the State where the cemeteries +are located unless such jurisdiction has been +ceded to the United States.756 +

+ +

+423.. Tombstones, Soldiers.—The United +States will erect tombstones at the graves of +soldiers who served in the Civil War, in all +cemeteries where their graves are unmarked. +Wherever the United States has jurisdiction +over cemeteries, it has made it a criminal +offense punishable by fine or imprisonment +to deface a tombstone.757 +

+ +[pg 223] + +

+424. Indigent Soldiers, Tombstones.—Most +of the States have statutes providing +for the burial of indigent soldiers and for +putting tombstones at their graves. The +attention of relatives of deceased soldiers +should be called to it. +

+ +

+425. State Authority.—The State Legislature +has authority to control cemeteries or +delegate that authority to some one else, +and afterward to transfer it to a different +person.758 +

+ +

+426. Maryland, Two Acres.—Although +the declaration of rights of the State of +Maryland restricted the sale of lands for a +cemetery for a church to two acres, the +Legislature has power to grant leave to a +cemetery association to take title to more land. +And where the trustees bought twelve acres +of land for a burial ground and a subsequent +act of the Legislature authorized the enlargement +of the cemetery not to exceed +twenty-five acres, the title to the excess of +the valid purchase was ratified and the title +vested in the trustees.759 +

+ +

+427. Consent, Application.—Where a +statute provides that no cemetery shall be +laid out without first obtaining the consent +of the municipal authorities thereto, a written +[pg 224] +communication signed by the officers of +an incorporated society is sufficient application; +and a motion granting consent adopted +by the city council is sufficient action on its +part to comply with the statute.760 +

+ +

+428. Charter, Ground, Members.—An +application for a charter to incorporate a +cemetery need not specifically locate the +ground.761 The charter or the articles of incorporation, +or by-laws made under them, +generally determines who shall be members +of the corporation. And where every owner +of a lot signing the constitution and by-laws +becomes a member, the trustees can not vote +on the unsold lots.762 +

+ +

+429. Police Power, Trespass, Burial.—Under +our laws the State, by reason of its +police power, has control over the cemeteries +within it. However, that power has generally +been very favorably exercised. Laws +both civil and criminal have been enacted +to protect cemeteries from invasion and trespass +and to protect tombstones from injury.763 +When authorized by the Legislature a city +may make a by-law prohibiting burial within +its limits, notwithstanding that the cemetery +[pg 225] +has been constantly used for over one hundred +years.764 Also, the city has authority +to protect and regulate the use of a cemetery.765 +

+ +

+430. Dwelling, Limits.—Most of the +States provide that no cemetery shall be laid +out within a certain limit of a dwelling. +But after the cemetery is established a man +can not have it moved when he puts up a +dwelling within the limits or where he consented +to the cemetery at the time it was +established.766 +

+ +

+431. Well, Pollution.—And where a man +had built a dwelling near a cemetery, it was +not good ground for him to prevent the enlargement +of the cemetery by showing that +it might destroy his well. The court questions +whether there is any legal ground for +complaint for the pollution of subterranean +waters when caused by the proper use without +negligence of the adjacent premises.767 +Additional lands may be obtained under the +law of eminent domain by condemnation.768 +

+ +[pg 226] + +

+432. Exempt, Execution, Mortgage.—The +statutes in most of the States exempt +the tombstones and lots in a cemetery from +sale on execution.769 Also, a cemetery lot +can not be sold under mortgage after bodies +have been buried therein, as any one may be +arrested for desecration of graves.770 +

+ +

+433. Public, Regulation.—The right to +bury in a public cemetery is a privilege or +license that is subject to municipal regulation, +and revocable whenever the public +necessity requires it.771 +

+ +

+434. Nuisance, Public Health, Disease.—A +cemetery is not a nuisance per se, but +if it is proved that the burial of dead bodies +in a certain cemetery does injure the public +health and is a fruitful source of transmission +of disease, the State may prohibit such +burial at certain places within cities or adjacent +to dwellings. But unless authorized +by the Legislature a council has no right by +ordinance to provide that no one shall be +buried within half a mile of any habitation +or public thoroughfare.772 And where the +[pg 227] +Legislature authorized a city to remove the +bodies interred and allow streets through +the land, it had authority to do so.773 +

+ +

+435. Devise, Easement, Rules.—The +general rule of law is that a man can not +devise away a cemetery lot in which members +of his family are buried. He owns only +a license or at the most an easement which +is subject to the rules of the cemetery association +and the police power of the State. +However, there are some exceptions.774 +

+ +

+436. Conditions.—A condition in a deed +that the lot can not be sold, assigned, or +transferred without consent of the cemetery +corporation, is as good and binding as in any +other conveyance of real estate.775 +

+ +

+437. Inherits, Right.—Where a son inherits +from his father the right to burial in +a cemetery lot, he has the right to remove +and inter therein the bodies of his grandmother +and sister who had been buried elsewhere.776 +

+ +[pg 228] + +

+438. Certificate.—A certificate was issued +for the burial of Dennis Coppers in the +following form: +

+ +
+
+
“Office of Calvary Cemetery,
+
New York, December 1, 1873.
+
+ +

+RECEIVED from Mr. Dennis Coppers, +seventy-five dollars, being the amount of +purchase money of a plot of ground 8 feet +by 8 feet, in Calvary Cemetery. +

+ +
+
D. BRENNAN,
+
Superintendent of Calvary Cemetery.
+
+ +

+4 Graves, 5, 6, 7, 8, Plot D, Section 7, +Range 35.” +

+
+ +

+439. Freemason, Title, Right.—Prior to +1879, the mother, wife, and other relatives +of Coppers, who were Roman Catholics, +were buried in the lot covered by the deed +given in the last paragraph. Coppers, who +was a Freemason, died in August, 1879, and +his funeral services were held under the +auspices of the Masons from an Episcopal +church, as directed in his will. The rules +and doctrines of the Church forbid the +burial in consecrated ground of the body of +one who was not a Roman Catholic or who +was a member of the Masonic fraternity. +The Church authorities refused to allow +Coppers to be buried in the cemetery, and +application was made by his relatives for a +[pg 229] +writ of mandamus to compel his interment +therein, they having deposited the necessary +money to pay all the expenses. The court +held that the certificate delivered to Coppers +was not a conveyance nor a grant and did +not vest title to the land in him, and that the +cemetery could not be compelled to execute +and deliver to him an absolute conveyance of +the lot. His only right under the certificate +was the use of the lot for burial purposes +subject to and in conformity with the established +rules and by-laws of the corporation +in so far as they were not in violation of +any law. It is the tacit understanding, +when a person applies for a burial lot in a +cemetery of the Catholic Church, that he is +either a Catholic and as such is eligible to +be buried therein, or that he applies in behalf +of those who are in communion with +the Church.777 +

+ +

+440. Lots, Fee.—If the cemetery association +sells 400 lots to one man and makes +a conveyance in fee thereof, it is bound +thereby.778 +

+ +

+441. Deed, Privilege, Heirs and Assigns.—No +formal deed is necessary to confer exclusive +right to the use of a cemetery lot for +[pg 230] +burial purposes.779 And certificates of lots +issued by a corporation convey no title to +the land, as they are not in the form necessary +to constitute a conveyance of land. +Their only effect is to grant the privilege of +interment so long as the ground continues +to be used for the purposes of burial.780 A +deed of a cemetery lot “to him, his heirs, and +assigns forever,” gives only an easement in +the freehold, and does not give title to the +soil, and is subject to changes made necessary +by altered circumstances.781 +

+ +

+442. Access, Purposes.—Title to a cemetery +lot gives the right of access to it for +the usual purposes, including putting up +monuments.782 +

+ +

+443. Monuments, Inscriptions, Drunkenness, +Non-Baptized, Strangers.—The +plaintiff obtained from the defendant a deed, +which, among other things, contained the +following conditions: “that such lot shall +not be transferred without the consent of +the trustees; shall be subject to the regulations +made, or to be made, in the care and +management of such cemetery by the trustees, +who shall also have the right to prevent +[pg 231] +the erection of offensive and improper monuments +or inscriptions thereon, and shall retain +the right to enter any lot for the removal +of anything objectionable; that no remains +shall be deposited therein for hire; +and that persons dying in drunkenness, duel, +or by self-destruction, non-baptized, non-Catholic, +or otherwise opposed to the Catholic +Church, shall not be therein interred.” +The plaintiff had buried his father and one +of his children in the lot, and brought his +wife's remains there for burial. Upon the +arrival of the funeral, two small coffins of +strangers, one of which bore the name “John +McDonald,” which the grave-digger had +taken up, were at the side of the grave. +There was nothing to show how those bodies +came to be buried there. The plaintiff +brought suit for damages against the cemetery +association. The court held that the +cemetery association was liable and that the +defense that it was a public charitable organization +could not be sustained.783 +

+ +

+444. Use, Forfeited.—When a deed is +made of land for the use of a cemetery only, +it will be forfeited by using it for a school.784 +

+ +

+445. By-Laws, Member, Burial.—Where +a by-law of a church association provides +[pg 232] +that any member who pays one dollar to +have his name entered in the record shall +be entitled to a burial lot, a member who +had paid one dollar to the committee of the +church before the adoption of such by-law +but had ceased to be a member of +the congregation, has no right to a burial +lot.785 +

+ +

+446. Adverse Possession.—If the original +title to a cemetery is defective, the title +may become good by adverse possession.786 +

+ +

+447. Improvements.—The owner of a +lot, unless some rule of the cemetery association +or law of the State is to the contrary, +may improve it as he sees fit so long +as he does not injure the property rights of +another.787 +

+ +

+448. Trespass, Injunction.—An action +for damages quara clausum fregit, can be +maintained by a relative against any one +who trespasses upon a grave of a person +lawfully interred.788 Also, a relative may +enjoin by suit in equity, on behalf of himself +and others equally interested, interference +with graves in his cemetery lot.789 +

+ +[pg 233] + +

+449. Roads, Alleys.—Most of the laws +relating to highways apply to cemetery +roads and alleys, excepting that when a +road or alley in a cemetery is vacated the +land reverts to the cemetery instead of becoming +parts of the adjoining lots.790 In +most of the States a road can not be laid +out through or take a part of a cemetery.791 +But a public highway may be established +through a cemetery by user, the same as +over other lands.792 +

+ +

+450. Abandoned, Bodies.—When a cemetery +has been abandoned, those who have +relatives buried there may incorporate it for +preservation.793 Also, a corporation may +change its cemetery and remove the bodies +interred therein.794 +

+ +

+451. Two-Family Lot, Control.—Where +a lot is owned jointly by two families, one +burying in the north half and the other in +the south half, the family burying in the +north half can not prevent the burial of a +[pg 234] +member of the other family in the south half, +if entitled to be buried in that cemetery.795 +

+ +

+452. Burying Dogs, Removal.—A person +who has a lot in a cemetery has no right +to bury any but human bodies therein, and +one who has buried a pet dog in her lot may +be compelled to remove it.796 +

+ +

+453. Stranger, Protest, Kin.—One member +of a family can not authorize the burial +of a stranger in a family lot where his +parents are buried and against the protest of +any other relative of equal or nearer degree +of kin.797 When an owner of a lot has consented +to the burial of a body therein, he +can not afterward remove the body or deface +the tombstone, and to do so would be a criminal +offense.798 When a lot is sold to one person, +the cemetery association has the right +to limit interments to members of the family +owning the lot. However, where there is +nothing concerning it in the laws or rules of +the association, it might be different.799 +

+ +

+454. Association, Bishop, Stipulation, +Certificate, License, Revocable.—The Germans +of Cincinnati formed an association +[pg 235] +and purchased ten acres of land for a cemetery +“for German immigrants, their families, +and relatives, of Cincinnati and its vicinity, +who might be members of the Catholic +Church and in accordance with the doctrine, +discipline, usage, and ceremonies of the +same.” They incorporated with fifteen trustees +to be elected annually. Before he would +bless the cemetery, the bishop required and +the committee stipulated with him in writing +the following: That the rules of the Catholic +Church should always be faithfully observed +in this chiefly: First, that no one +should be buried in the ground who had not +been baptized or who died out of communion +of the Catholic Church, to which the +bishop or in his absence the clergy of the +German Catholic Church or churches, +should be the judge; second, that no poor +person should be denied a place therein because +his parents were unwilling to pay; +third, that any money accrued from the +ground should be expended for pious uses +and specifically for the relief of the German +Catholic poor; fourth, that the remains of +persons interred in Catharine Street burial-ground +might be removed to the new +ground. The bishop subsequently closed +the cemetery as a place for burial of Catholics +because the congregation had violated +[pg 236] +the stipulation: “First, by admitting those +to burial who died out of the communion of +the Catholic Church; second, by refusing to +poor persons the right of burial; third, by +expending the funds of the association in +other than pious uses and relief of the poor.” +The court held that the corporation had authority +to determine that the cemetery +should continue to be used as such, but the +conditions might be enforced by any one interested.800 +Also the question was brought +before the court in a case where a man had +fallen away from the Church, and the court +held that the certificate was a mere license +giving no property rights, and revocable; +and that the question as to whether the party +to be buried therein was in communion with +the Church, was one over which the Church +itself had exclusive jurisdiction.801 +

+ +

+455. Rules, Diocese.—One who buys the +privilege of burying his dead in a cemetery +acquires no general right of property, but +only a right to use the grounds as a place of +interment, and the rules governing a cemetery +in force at the time the privilege is +acquired measure the extent of the use. +Where a rule of the church having charge +of the cemetery forbids the burial of non-Catholics +[pg 237] +therein, the bishop of the diocese +and the local priest, who according to the +usage of the church were vested with control, +had authority and power to restrain a +holder of a lot from interring the body of +his son who was not in communion with the +church at the time of his death, and who +committed suicide.802 +

+ +

+456. Negroes, Indians.—The fact that a +man is a negro, Indian, or other racial +human being, is not good ground to prevent +his burial in a cemetery.803 +

+ +

+457. Will, Body, Custody.—Where no +disposition of a body has been made by will, +the surviving husband, or wife, or next of +kin, has the right to the body for the purpose +of burial. But the right of the surviving +wife or husband, if they were living together +at the time of the death of deceased, +is paramount to that of the next of kin.804 A +right to the custody of the body of a deceased +relative and to decide upon the final +place of burial where the deceased is unmarried, +[pg 238] +is in his next of kin, and this right +will be protected by the courts.805 +

+ +

+458. Non-Residence, Burial.—Non-residence +does not divest a person of the right +to burial with his relatives.806 +

+ +

+459. State, Vacate, Equity, Rule.—The +State may require the removal of the bodies +and vacate a cemetery without compensation +to lot owners in some extraordinary cases of +eminent domain or as a health measure.807 +Courts of equity exercise some discretion in +cases that do not fall within this rule.808 But +the superintendent of a cemetery has no +right to remove a child without the consent +of the father who owns the lot.809 +

+ +

+460. Consent, Bishop, Removal.—With +the consent of deceased's husband before the +funeral, the father of deceased paid for the +lot in which his daughter wished to be +buried with her parents. Her mother being +dissatisfied with the location, the lot was +[pg 239] +subsequently exchanged for another in the +same cemetery; but after preliminary arrangements +had been made, the son-in-law +applied to a court of equity for a writ restraining +the father and the bishop from +removing the body. The bishop answered +that he was willing to conform to any order +of the court. The court held that by acceding +to his wife's request and allowing her +father to bury her in the first instance, and +by standing mute while the arrangements +for the removal of the body were being +made, the husband had no right thereafter +to prevent the removal of his wife's body.810 +

+ +

+461. Court, Remove, Consent.—In a +proper case a court may grant a decree to +remove the body of a relative from one cemetery +to another.811 Otherwise no one has +the right to exhume or remove a body without +the consent of those having charge of +the cemetery and of those having the right +of burial, as consort or the next of kin. In +some States the offense is a felony.812 In +Nebraska, at least, those who have the legal +right to bury a relative may remove his body +[pg 240] +from one Catholic cemetery to another without +the consent of the bishop.813 +

+ +

+462. Crime, Fraud, Exhume, Autopsy.—In +an action on an insurance policy where +there is evidence of fraud, as death by +poison, a court may order a body exhumed +for examination, although the person having +the right to control the burial of the body is +not a party to the suit.814 Public officials +have the right to disinter a body to ascertain +whether a crime has been committed.815 But +without a coroner's inquest or consent of the +surviving consort or next of kin, a doctor +has no right to perform an autopsy.816 +

+ +

+463. Tort, Corpse.—The general rule is +that an action of tort may be maintained by +the widow or next of kin for the mutilation +of a corpse or even for negligently exposing +it to the elements.817 In a few cases the right +has been denied.818 +

+ +

+464. Custodian, Burial, Mutilation.—In +the absence of a widow, a son is the lawful +[pg 241] +custodian of the body of his deceased father +for preservation, representation, and burial, +and may maintain an action for unlawful +mutilation thereof. The sense of outrage +and mental suffering resulting directly from +the wilful mutilation of the body of a parent, +is a proper independent element of compensatory +damages.819 +

+ +

+465. Property in a Corpse, Mummy, Executors.—The +question of property in a +corpse has been generally denied. However, +in case of a mummy which has become an +object of curiosity, the case may be different. +Where a testator ordered his body +burned and the executor presented a bill for +£321 for doing so, the court disallowed it on +the ground that when a man is dead his next +of kin or executors have the right to dispose +of his body; but that as it is not property, a +man has no right to bequeath it for a particular +purpose.820 Also, where a man was +in jail and died during his imprisonment and +the jailer refused to give up the body until +the debt was paid, the court held that there +was no property in the corpse, and therefore +there could be no lien upon it and he +must surrender it.821 +

+ +[pg 242] + +

+466. Rights, Duties, Body, Will.—While +there is no property in a dead body so that it +may be sold, there are rights and duties out +of which may arise tort and criminal actions. +The question of the right of a man to dispose +of his body by will is not well settled in this +country.822 There are many cases that hold +that a person has the right to make a binding +testamentary disposition of his own body +after death.823 But on the contrary it has +been held that one can not by his will confer +any right as to the disposition of his body.824 +

+ +

+467. Monument, Fence.—Giving the right +to bury in one's cemetery lot carries with it +the right to erect a monument; but it does not +carry with it the right to fence the cemetery +lot or interfere with other graves therein. +Therefore, the monument must be of such +size and so located and erected as not to interfere +with the rights of others.825 +

+ +

+468. Tombstone, Mother-in-Law.—A +husband has the right to remove a tombstone +that his mother-in-law put over his wife's +grave, and put up one of his own choice +[pg 243] +instead.826 The general rule is that vaults and +tombstones are personal property and may +be removed “in good faith and with care +and decency” by the next of kin.827 +

+ +

+469. Trees, Authority.—It is a criminal +offense to cut trees in a cemetery without +right or authority.828 +

+ +

+470. Charitable, Institution, Negligence.—A +Catholic cemetery without capital stock +or shares and paying no profits nor dividends, +does not come under the head of a +charitable institution so as to relieve it from +liability for negligence.829 +

+ +

+471. Equity, Repair, Injuries.—A cemetery +association may by bill in equity be +forced to keep walks and drives in good repair +and consequently is liable for injuries +resulting from its negligence.830 +

+ +
+ +[pg 244] + +
+ + +

Chapter XXXIV. Miscellaneous

+ +

+472. Societies, Law.—Religious societies +organized in connection with a church or +congregation are in law civil societies and +not ecclesiastical corporations, and are governed +by the law of the land. Therefore, +the law of fraternities fully covers all questions +that arise in such societies. The subject +is too comprehensive to be treated at any +length here.831 +

+ +

+473. Society, Bishop.—A society may +expel a member on due notice and a fair +trial. The refusal of the bishop to recognize +a fraternity organized as a Roman Catholic +society, does not prevent the society and its +officers from exercising the powers of a +religious corporation conferred by law nor +prohibit its members from maintaining their +religious worship.832 +

+ +

+474. Priest, Doorkeeper, Policemen, Arrest.—A +priest who was in charge of a +parish and had control of the temporalities +consisting of pew-rents, Sunday and other +[pg 245] +collections, graveyard, church, school, fees, +and donations, on account of disorderly behavior +of members issued tickets to those +to be admitted and ordered a doorkeeper to +prevent others from entering the church. A +woman without a ticket and talking loudly, +endeavored to force her way into the church, +although there were several policemen on +duty who attempted to stop her. She was +arrested and her husband brought suit for +false imprisonment. The court held that a +clergyman has a right to keep disturbers out +of the church and that the doorkeepers have +a right to use sufficient force to carry out +the orders of the priest; but when a doorkeeper +went beyond those orders by causing +the arrest of the woman, he was not acting +within the apparent scope of his employment +and the priest was not liable.833 +

+ +

+475. Saloon, Church, License.—A man +owned premises that had been occupied as +a saloon from 1894. In 1896 the New York +law prohibiting saloons to be licensed within +200 feet of a church, except places where +liquor traffic had been carried on prior to +that time, was passed. In 1898 a church +was built within 200 feet of the saloon in +question. After the building of the church, +the saloon was vacated for about ten days +[pg 246] +during a change of saloonkeepers, and an +action was brought to revoke the license of +the new saloonkeeper. The court held that +the incidental interruption of the business +did not bring the place within the prohibition +of the law, and that the license could +not be revoked.834 +

+ +

+476. Y. M. C. A.—The Y. M. C. A. on +account of giving lunches, lectures, and +having a gymnasium, for which charges are +made, is not a charitable institution so as to +be exempt from liability in case of negligence. +Property is exempt only when used +for exempt purposes exclusively.835 +

+ +

+477. Students, Vote, Residence.—Students +at a seminary studying for the priesthood +do not thereby lose their residence at +their homes and are not entitled to vote +where a college is located. The fact that +they intend to remain for four years, become +clergymen, and then go to wherever they +may be called, does not give them the right +of residence, and there is no distinction between +them and any other students away +from home at school.836 However, a student +of full age might become a voter in the college +[pg 247] +precinct if he has no other fixed domicile.837 +

+ +

+478. “My Wife, Anna Jones,” Divorce, +Insurance.—A bequest or devise to “my +wife, Anna Jones,” is not changed by a divorce +without some evidence to prove that +the testator did not intend his divorced wife +to share in his estate, unless the judgment +of divorce made a division of the property. +The same is true of a policy of insurance or +benefit certificate. However, there are exceptions +that weaken the rule and make its +application in some States uncertain.838 +

+ +

+479. Bells, Sick, Injunction.—On the +complaint of an injured person, a court will +issue an injunction restraining the ringing +of church, convent, or other bells, at unusual +hours or when their noise is injurious to the +sick, or when their vibration affects other +premises. As the law of nuisances applies +in such cases, an exact statement of when +the court should issue the injunction or +whether the injunction should be temporary +or perpetual, can not be given; but when +the personal or property rights of others +[pg 248] +are affected, an injunction may be granted. +The fact that the bells are chimes or part +of a clock does not change the rule.839 +

+ +

+480. Marriage, Impediments, Recording.—Legal +marriage may be contracted only +between unmarried persons not related +within the prohibited degrees of consanguinity +or affinity, of lawful age and sufficient +mental and physical capacity. Statutes +vary greatly. In some States affinity is not +considered a legal objection and first cousins +may marry; in others, both are prohibited +and other limitations of relationship, race, +and color are fixed, and registration of the +clergymen and licenses to wed are required. +Also, the clergyman must report the marriage +promptly to the proper office. Fines, +penalties, and imprisonment are usually provided +for violating the law. Informal +marriages may or may not be voidable or +void.840 +

+ +

+481. Charivari, Wedding Pranks.—Charivari, +assaults, and disorderly conduct +are unlawful at all times, and can not be +[pg 249] +justified by custom.841 A newly wedded man +who was serenaded (charivaried) by his +neighbors by firing guns, blowing horns, +beating pans, rattling horse-fiddles, etc., +after ordering the rioters off fired into the +crowd and wounded one of them. On trial +for assault with intent to kill, the groom was +acquitted. Shooting might not be justifiable +in cases where less potent agencies, +such as a horsewhip or dogs, are sufficient, +or where the immediate protection of person +or property does not call for it. The law +should be invoked when no exigency for +force exists.842 +

+ +

+482. Infallibility of Courts.—When a +question of law at issue in a case is duly +presented to a supreme court which is the +court of last resort, its decision thereon becomes +“the law of the case” and is thereafter +binding upon the court itself and all +the courts inferior to it; and no matter how +often that identical case may come before +the court on subsequent appeals, the questions +already decided therein will not be reconsidered. +It is interesting to compare this +principle of our courts with Papal +[pg 250] +infallibility.843 Courts do not always adhere to the +rule.844 +

+ +

+483. Money Stolen, Bailed or Loaned, +Insolvency, Gifts.—Property stolen by A. +or left with him as bailee to be returned in +specie, can not be given away by him for +charity. Also, when a man is insolvent he +has no right to give away any of his property.845 +That has been the rule of law since +Coke laid down the maxim: “A man must +be just before he is generous.” One is insolvent +when his debts exceed the value of +his unexempt property.846 When an insolvent +debtor makes a gift, a creditor may +sue and recover from the donee; or in a +proper case the creditor may force the +debtor into bankruptcy to recover the gift.847 +The want of knowledge or good faith of the +donee is immaterial and no defense to an +action to recover the property.848 +

A Word from Project Gutenberg

This file should be named + 35563-h.html or + 35563-h.zip.

This and all associated files of various formats will be found + in: + + http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/3/5/5/6/35563/

Updated editions will replace the previous one — the old + editions will be renamed.

Creating the works from public domain print editions means that + no one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the + Foundation (and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United + States without permission and without paying copyright royalties. + Special rules, set forth in the General Terms of Use part of this + license, apply to copying and distributing Project Gutenberg™ electronic works + to protect the Project Gutenberg™ concept and trademark. Project Gutenberg is a registered + trademark, and may not be used if you charge for the eBooks, + unless you receive specific permission. If you do not charge + anything for copies of this eBook, complying with the rules is + very easy. You may use this eBook for nearly any purpose such as + creation of derivative works, reports, performances and research. + They may be modified and printed and given away — you may do + practically anything with public domain eBooks. + Redistribution is subject to the trademark license, especially + commercial redistribution.

The Full Project Gutenberg License

Please read this before you distribute or use this + work.

To protect the Project Gutenberg™ mission of promoting the free + distribution of electronic works, by using or distributing + this work (or any other work associated in any way with the + phrase “Project Gutenberg”), you agree to comply with all the terms + of the Full Project Gutenberg™ License (available with this file or online + at http://www.gutenberg.org/license).

Section 1.

General Terms of Use & Redistributing Project Gutenberg™ + electronic works

1.A.

By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg™ electronic + work, you indicate that you have read, understand, agree to + and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual + property (trademark/copyright) agreement. If you do not agree + to abide by all the terms of this agreement, you must cease + using and return or destroy all copies of Project Gutenberg™ electronic + works in your possession. If you paid a fee for obtaining a + copy of or access to a Project Gutenberg™ electronic work and you do not + agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement, you may + obtain a refund from the person or entity to whom you paid the + fee as set forth in paragraph 1.E.8.

1.B.

“Project Gutenberg” is a registered trademark. It may only be used on or + associated in any way with an electronic work by people who agree to be + bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few things that you + can do with most Project Gutenberg™ electronic works even without complying with the + full terms of this agreement. See paragraph 1.C below. There are a lot of things you can + do with Project Gutenberg™ electronic works if you follow the terms of this + agreement and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg™ electronic + works. See paragraph 1.E below.

1.C.

The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation (“the Foundation” or PGLAF), owns a compilation + copyright in the collection of Project Gutenberg™ electronic works. Nearly all the + individual works in the collection are in the public domain in the + United States. If an individual work is in the public domain in the + United States and you are located in the United States, we do not claim + a right to prevent you from copying, distributing, performing, + displaying or creating derivative works based on the work as long as all + references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope that you will support + the Project Gutenberg™ mission of promoting free access to electronic works by + freely sharing Project Gutenberg™ works in compliance with the terms of this + agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg™ name associated with the work. You can + easily comply with the terms of this agreement by keeping this work in + the same format with its attached full Project Gutenberg™ License when you share it + without charge with others.

1.D.

The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern + what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in + a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States, check + the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement + before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or + creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project Gutenberg™ work. + The Foundation makes no representations concerning the copyright status + of any work in any country outside the United States.

1.E.

Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:

1.E.1.

The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate + access to, the full Project Gutenberg™ License must appear prominently whenever any + copy of a Project Gutenberg™ work (any work on which the phrase “Project Gutenberg” + appears, or with which the phrase “Project Gutenberg” is associated) is + accessed, displayed, performed, viewed, copied or distributed: + +

This eBook is for the use of + anyone anywhere at no cost and with almost no + restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it + away or re-use it under the terms of the Project + Gutenberg License included with this eBook or + online at http://www.gutenberg.org

1.E.2.

If an individual Project Gutenberg™ electronic work is derived from the public + domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is posted with + permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied and + distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees or + charges. If you are redistributing or providing access to a work with + the phrase “Project Gutenberg” associated with or appearing on the work, you + must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for + the use of the work and the Project Gutenberg™ trademark as set forth in paragraphs + 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.

1.E.3.

If an individual Project Gutenberg™ electronic work is posted with the permission + of the copyright holder, your use and distribution must comply with both + paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any + additional terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms will + be linked to the Project Gutenberg™ License for all works posted with the permission + of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.

1.E.4.

Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg™ License terms from + this work, or any files containing a part of this work or any other work + associated with Project Gutenberg™.

1.E.5.

Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this + electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without + prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with active links or immediate access + to the full terms of the Project Gutenberg™ License.

1.E.6.

You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary, + compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including + any word processing or hypertext form. However, if you provide access + to or distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg™ work in a format other than + “Plain Vanilla ASCII” or other format used in the official + version posted on the official Project Gutenberg™ web site (http://www.gutenberg.org), you must, at + no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a copy, a + means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon + request, of the work in its original “Plain Vanilla ASCII” or + other form. Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg™ License + as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.

1.E.7.

Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying, performing, + copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg™ works unless you comply with + paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.

1.E.8.

You may charge a reasonable fee for copies of or providing access to + or distributing Project Gutenberg™ electronic works provided that

•  

You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from + the use of Project Gutenberg™ works calculated using the method you already use to + calculate your applicable taxes. The fee is owed to the owner of the + Project Gutenberg™ trademark, but he has agreed to donate royalties under this + paragraph to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments must be paid within 60 days + following each date on which you prepare (or are legally required to + prepare) your periodic tax returns. Royalty payments should be clearly + marked as such and sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the address specified in Section 4, “Information about donations to the + Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation.”

•  

You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies + you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he does + not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg™ License. You must require such + a user to return or destroy all copies of the works possessed in a + physical medium and discontinue all use of and all access to other + copies of Project Gutenberg™ works.

•  

You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any money paid for a + work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the electronic work is + discovered and reported to you within 90 days of receipt of the + work.

•  

You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free + distribution of Project Gutenberg™ works.

1.E.9.

If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg™ electronic work or + group of works on different terms than are set forth in this agreement, + you must obtain permission in writing from both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and Michael + Hart, the owner of the Project Gutenberg™ trademark. Contact the Foundation as set + forth in Section 3 below.

1.F.

1.F.1.

Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable effort to identify, + do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread public domain works + in creating the Project Gutenberg™ collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg™ + electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may + contain “Defects,” such as, but not limited to, incomplete, + inaccurate or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other + intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other + medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be + read by your equipment.

1.F.2.

LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES — Except for the “Right of + Replacement or Refund” described in paragraph + 1.F.3, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project Gutenberg™ trademark, and any + other party distributing a Project Gutenberg™ electronic work under this agreement, + disclaim all liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including + legal fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT + LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE + PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE TRADEMARK + OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO + YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL + DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

1.F.3.

LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND — If you discover a defect in + this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can receive a + refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a written + explanation to the person you received the work from. If you received + the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with your + written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with the + defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a + refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity + providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to + receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy + is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further + opportunities to fix the problem.

1.F.4.

Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth in + paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided + to you 'AS-IS,' WITH NO OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR + IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR + FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.

1.F.5.

Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied warranties or + the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages. If any + disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the law of + the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be + interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by + the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any + provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.

Section 2.

Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg™

Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of electronic works + in formats readable by the widest variety of computers including + obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists because of the + efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from people in all walks + of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the + assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™'s goals and + ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will remain freely available for + generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a + secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future generations. To learn + more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see + Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.

Section 4.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without wide spread public + support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing the number + of public domain and licensed works that can be freely distributed in + machine readable form accessible by the widest array of equipment + including outdated equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are + particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with the + IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating + charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United + States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a + considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up + with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where + we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND + DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state + visit http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we + have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition + against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who + approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make + any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from + outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation methods and + addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways including + checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate, please + visit: http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate

Section 5.

General Information About Project Gutenberg™ electronic + works.

Professor Michael S. Hart is the + originator of the Project Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that + could be freely shared with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and + distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer + support.

Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed editions, all of + which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. unless a copyright + notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks in + compliance with any particular paper edition.

Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's + eBook number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII, + compressed (zipped), HTML and others.

Corrected editions of our eBooks replace the old file + and take over the old filename and etext number. The replaced older file + is renamed. Versions based on separate sources are treated + as new eBooks receiving new filenames and etext numbers.

Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search + facility: + + http://www.gutenberg.org

This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg™, including how to + make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and + how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+ + +Preface + +

+The three learned professions, medicine, +law, and theology, overlap; and a man who +does not know something of the other two +can not be prominent in his own. Laws +relating to Church matters are scattered +through such a vast array of law books +that it would be a burden for a clergyman +to purchase them, and without special training +he would not know where to look for +the law. Therefore a law compendium covering +those subjects relating to Church matters +must be of great value to a clergyman. +

+ +

+There is another view of this subject. +When she was mistress of the world the +laws of the Roman Empire were for the +Roman citizens, particularly the patricians; +the canon law was the law of the Christian +people of conquered countries and the Christian +plebeians of Rome. In the United States +we have the same common law for the President +and the hod-carrier, for the multimillionaire + +and the penniless orphan, for the +clergy and the laity. Consequently, in this +practical age a knowledge of the law of the +country with which the clergy come constantly +in contact is expedient, if not necessary. +

+ +

+The poet says: +

+ + + +What constitutes a state?... +Men, who their duties know, +But know their rights, and knowing, dare maintain. + + + +

+To insure harmony and good order, every +Church should obey the laws of the country; +but if any law should impose upon the rights +of the Church in any way, the ruling authorities, +the cardinal and bishops, if the wrong +is national, should unite in a petition to the +United States Congress, clearly stating the +grievance and asking for its redress.U. S. Constitution, Amendments, art. i, art. xiv, sec. 1. If +the grievance should be within a State, the +bishop or bishops of the State should present +the matter to the Legislature of the State. +If the President or the Governor has authority +to remedy the matter, go direct to him. +Such was the practice of the wisest of the +Popes.Lives of the Popes, Montor, vol. i, p. 94; Life of Leo +XIII, Philippine Question. The author never knew of an instance + +in which a clergyman having a real +grievance failed in obtaining a full and fair +hearing from the powers that be, from the +President downward. This method seems +to be more in harmony with the relations of +Church and State in a free government, and +more intelligent than to have a convention +of working men, who have little time to +make a study of Church matters, pass resolutions, +the passing of which generally ends +the action of a convention. +

+ +

+In the chapters that follow, the author +has refrained from giving a great multitude +of authorities, but has endeavored to give +such as are sufficient to sustain the text. +For example, under the first section, and +many others, a list of citations covering +several pages might be given. That would +add to the expense of the volume and would +not be within its compass. The book will +better fulfil its purpose by clear, brief statements +of the rules of law, and if a reader +desires to investigate further, the citations +given will guide his way. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter I. Introduction + +

+1. Law, Religion.—From the dawn of +the science of law it has been influenced by +religion or antagonism to religion. This is +very evident in the ancient laws of Babylonia, +Egypt, Phenicia, Israel, India, and +Ireland. It would be impossible to make a +study of the law of any of said countries +without gaining a knowledge of its religious +system, whether pagan or otherwise.The Science of Jurisprudence, Taylor, p. 506; Historical +Jurisprudence, Lee, p. 328. +

+ +

+2. Religions.—Ancient nations might be +classified into pagan and those that worshiped +the universal God. However, some +of the nations at one time were pagan and +at other times had a fair conception of the +supernatural. Also, in Egypt, the class of +higher culture and education believed in the +one omnipotent and omniscient Being, but + +the populace, who could be controlled more +readily by flattering them in their notions +and giving their childish conceptions full +sway, worshiped idols.Ancient Egypt, Rawlinson, vol. i, p. 323. +

+ +

+3. Authority, Right.—In those nations +where the ruling authority had the proper +conception of the Almighty, there was a +strong, persistent growth of law upon the +basis of natural right; while in the pagan +nations laws were arbitrary and despotic.Historical Jurisprudence, Lee, pp. 98, 164, 274; History +of England, Lingard, vol. i, c. vii; The Science of Jurisprudence, +Taylor, p. 506. +

+ +

+4. Philosophical Foundations.—The laws +of Greece, down to the time of Plato, were +thoroughly pagan. But, following the philosophical +foundations laid by Plato and +Aristotle, unintentionally and unwittingly +the laws of Greece became imbued with the +spirit of natural law.Historical Jurisprudence, Lee, p. 257. +

+ +

+5. Rome, Natural Justice.—Prior to the +introduction of Grecian law into Rome, the +laws of that nation were pagan. Grecian +law from its introduction to the time of +Octavius was the civilizing element of the +empire. Then it took a turn for the worse, +the element of natural justice being reduced +and the element of arbitrary rule becoming +dominant.Historical Jurisprudence, Lee, p. 271. +

+ + + +

+6. Canon Law.—We will now turn to +the first period of canon law, which covers +the early history of the Church up to the +reign of Constantine the Great.The Beginnings of Christianity, Shahan, 90. +

+ +

+Canon law is composed of the following +elements: +

+ + + +1. Holy Scriptures; +2. Ecclesiastical tradition; +3. Decrees of Councils; +4. Bulls and rescripts of Popes; +5. The writings of the Fathers; +6. Civil law.Elements of Ecclesiastical Law, Smith. + + + +

+7. Early Christians.—Owing to the persecutions, +the early Christians were, in a +sense, isolated from the State; they held +their property in common, and were governed +in matters among themselves by the +canon law. However, for want of freedom +of discussion and publication, they were +unable, even within a single nation of the +empire, to promulgate a system of canon +law. The foundation of canon law being +laid, its development upon the manumission +of the Church was rapid.Historical Jurisprudence, Lee, p. 387; Justinian, Sandar, +p. 21. +

+ +

+8. Persecutions, Defenses.—During the +religious persecutions the Christians almost +had law forced into them by surgical operations. + +The necessity for their making defenses +in the Roman tribunals induced many +of them to give Roman law a careful study. +Also, the great number of Christians held +for trial on all sorts of accusations made +that branch of the law of the realm very +lucrative for lawyers, and called into the +field many Christians. Incidently, men +studying for the priesthood made a study +of Roman law with a view to avoiding its +machinations and continuing their functions +as clergymen without being caught in the +net of persecution.The Beginnings of Christianity, Shahan. +

+ +

+9. Constantine, Blending the Law.—When +Emperor Constantine became a +Christian (325 A.D.), there was a great +change, and the members of the bar and +judges were mostly Christians. It then became +necessary for students of law to study +the principles of divine right as taught in +the Church, and while the books of the civil +law were read by students for the priesthood, +the Scriptures and the works of the +Fathers were read by the students in law, +thus blending the law of the two realms to +some extent.Universal Church History, Alzog. +

+ +

+10. Benefit of the Clergy, Ecclesiastical +Court.—As the old Roman Empire decayed + +and its power waned, the new one, +The Holy Roman Empire, gradually implanted +itself in southwestern Europe. The +humiliation that the divine law and the +clergy suffered in being brought into the +common courts gave rise to a system of +courts within the Church for the purpose of +enforcing her morals, doctrines, and discipline. +Those courts were established in all +Christian countries and had jurisdiction of +all felonies excepting arson, treason, and a +few other crimes that from time to time +were put under the special jurisdiction of +the state courts. Whenever a clergyman +was arrested for a crime, he pleaded the +benefit of the clergy, and his case was +transferred from the state court to the +ecclesiastical court. Also, when a clergyman +was convicted in the state court of any +crime for which the punishment was death, +he could plead the benefit of the clergy, +which was a protection against his execution.Law Dictionary, Bouvier, Benefit of Clergy, Canon +Law; Blackstone, vol. i, p. 460, vol. iii, p. 61. +

+ +

+11. Estates, Guardianship.—Besides the +jurisdiction already referred to, the ecclesiastical +court had jurisdiction over the settlement +of estates and the guardianship of + +children, which varied in different countries +and was very indefinite in some of +them.Blackstone, vol. i, p. 461. +

+ +

+12. Middle Ages, Common Law.—During +the Middle Ages there was a constant +effort on behalf of the ecclesiastical courts +to extend their jurisdiction, and a counter-effort +on behalf of the state courts to assume +jurisdiction of cases under the ecclesiastical +law. In England, from the conquest of +William the Conqueror to the Reformation, +the extension of the jurisdiction of the +ecclesiastical courts brought the new element +of English common law into the canon +law; and much of the canon law, following +the jurisdiction assumed by the state courts, +became the common law of the kingdom of +England.Justinian, Sandar, p. 21; Cyc, vol. viii, p. 366, vol. +xiv, p. 1228; Eq. Jurisprudence, Pomeroy, vol. i, p. 1; +The Science of Jurisprudence, Taylor, p. 255 et seq; Blackstone, +vol. i, pp. 18-20, 63; Kent, vol. i, p. 10; English Constitution, +Creasy. +

+ +

+13. Gratian, Reformation.—The canon +law reached its full development in the +twelfth century, when Gratian, the Blackstone +of his age, compiled the system, but +it subsequently lost its influence when the +Reformation prevailed.Blackstone, vol. i, p. 82, vol. iv, c. 33; The Science of +Jurisprudence, Taylor, p. 337; Conflict of Laws, Wharton, +sec. 172. +

+ + + +

+14. Bologna.—The great school of jurisprudence, +both of canon and civil law, was +located at Bologna, Italy, which reached its +zenith in the thirteenth century. To it students +flocked from Western Europe, and +from it were obtained the professors of law +in the universities of England and other +countries.The American Cyclopedia, Bologna. +

+ +

+15. Church and State.—In most of the +Christian countries, the Church and State +were united, and many of the judges in the +civil courts were clergymen.The Science of Jurisprudence, Taylor, p. 238. +

+ +

+16. England, Roman Law.—On account +of England's being subject to Rome in its +earliest age, and afterward because of its +being conquered by France, the Roman law +was pretty thoroughly intermixed with the +native English law in the minor matters of +the people, and governed in the more important +ones.Blackstone, vol. i, pp. 18-20, 79, vol. iv, c. 33. +

+ +

+17. America, English Law, Civil Law.—The +portions of America that were settled +by the English, which included the original +thirteen colonies, were under the English +law. In Virginia the Episcopal Church, +which was then the church of England, was +made the church of state. Canada and +that portion of the United States formerly + +known as Louisiana were governed by the +civil law of France. Wherever the French +government had no authority or civil officers, +the government was directly under the missionaries +of the Church.Commentaries, Kent, vol. i, c. xi, pp. 342, 473, 515, 525-544, +vol. ii, p. 27; Origin and Nature of the Constitution +and Government of U. S., U. S. Sup. Ct. Reps., 9 L. Ed., +873. +

+ +

+18. Religious Tolerance, Established +Church.—The English law and English +ideals prevailing in the original thirteen colonies,Commentaries, Kent, vol. i, p. 472; Blackstone, vol. i, +p. 107. +there was a strong effort made by +many of the delegates to the constitutional +convention to have the Episcopal Church +made the established church of the new republic. +Thomas Jefferson and James Madison +were probably the strongest opponents +of the scheme, and outside of the great Carroll +of Carrollton, they were the most earnest +advocates of religious tolerance. The necessity +for the fathers of this republic to be +united, and their being unable to unite upon +any church, caused the idea of an established +church to be eliminated. Thus was established +in our republic the freedom of conscience +and the guarantee that no one shall +be persecuted on account of his religious +convictions.Commentaries, Kent, vol. ii, pp. 35-37; Conflict of +Laws, Wharton (3rd ed.), vol. ii, pp. 1327-8. +

+ + + +

+19. Tribunals.—The ecclesiastical courts +as a part of the state system and the benefit +of the clergy, have been abolished in England +and America. However, as we shall +see further on, tribunals in the nature of the +ecclesiastical court exist in churches and +fraternities of all kinds in the United +States.Law of Fraternities, Scanlan, ch. xxiv; Conflict of +Laws, Wharton, sec. 109; Baxter v. McDonald, 155 N. Y., +83; 49 N. E., 667; Morris v. Dart, 67 S. C, 338; 45 S. E., +753; 100 Am. St. R., 734; Terrett v. Taylor, 13 U. S., 43; +3 L. Ed., 650. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter II. What Is A Church? + +

+20. Church, Religious Society.—Bouvier's +definition of Church is: A society +of persons who profess the Christian religion. +Chief Justice Shaw's definition is: +The church is neither a corporation nor a +quasi-corporation, but a body of persons +associated together for certain objects under +the law. An aggregate body of individuals +associated together in connection with a religious +society. The term religious society +may with propriety be applied in a certain +sense to a church as that of religious association, +religious union, or the like; yet in +the sense church was and is used in our law, +it is synonymous with parish or precinct and +designates an incorporated society created +and maintained for the support and maintenance +of public worship. In this, its legal +sense, a church is not a religious society. It +is a separate body formed within such parish +or religious society whose rights and usages +are well known and to a great extent defined +and established by law.Weld v. May, 9 Cushing, Mass., 181. +

+ + + +

+21. Doctrine, Constitution.—A church +in law is a mere fraternal organization. It +may or may not have a written constitution, +but it must have some central doctrine as its +foundation or constitution.Martin v. State, 65 Tenn., 234. Many of the +Protestant denominations claim that the +entire Bible is their constitution. The Jews +may be said to consider the Old Testament +as their constitution. All revealed truths +may be said to be the constitution of the +Catholic Church,A Manual of Catholic Theology, Wilhelm and Scannell, +p. xvii, et seq. and when a doctrine concerning +faith or morals is authoritatively +declared by the Church to be a truth, it +becomes a dogma.A Catholic Dictionary, Addis and Arnold, Dogma. The Apostles' Creed is +an example of several dogmatic truths. The +code of the Church is the Ten Commandments. +A few sects, by a majority vote, +make and change their constitutions at will. +

+ +

+22. By-Laws.—By-laws of the different +religious organizations differ widely, from +the decrees of the great councils of the +Catholic Church down to the vote of the +congregation of an independent denomination. +

+ +

+23. Church, Religious Society.—A +church in one sense is more limited than a +religious society; the latter comprehending + +all the members of the same faith. Even in +the Catholic Church we hear of the Church +of France, the Coptic Church, etc., spoken +of in this sense. And in a still more limited +sense we use the word as a synonym for +parish. However, when the word the is +used before church written with a capital +letter, Catholics understand it to apply to +the Roman Catholic Church in its entirety, +while some non-Catholics apply it to Christendom. +

+ +

+24. Church, Christians, Religion.—The +missions established in California prior to +its admission into the Union were, in law, +practically independent organizations and +had no legal connection with the Church. +Every society organized for the purpose of +propagating the practice of religion may be +a church in law.In re St. Louis Inst. of Christian Science, 27 Mo. App., +633. The courts have made a +distinction between Unitarians, who are +considered Christians, and Deists, Theists, +Free Religionists, and other infidels.Hale v. Everett, 53 N. H., 9. A +sect or denomination without a given system +of faith is not recognized as a religion in +law.State v. Trustees, 7 Ohio St., 58. +

+ +

+25. Doctrine, Standard.—To ascertain +the tenets and doctrines of a church, resort + +must be had to history and to prior and contemporary +standard writings of its members +on theology.Kniskern v. Lutheran Church, 1 Sandford, N. Y., Ch. +439. +

+ +

+26. Ecclesiastical Corporations, Religious, +Quasi-public Corporations.—Ecclesiastical +corporations, in the sense in which +the word is used in England, Germany, and +France, are unknown to the United States, +their places being supplied by religious societies +or corporations considered as private +bodies, in contradistinction to public or +quasi-public corporations, such as towns, +villages, cities, counties, and state. Therefore, +the law of private corporations applies +to religious societies and churches. +

+ +

+27. Sect, Sectarianism.—The Supreme +Court of Nevada defines sect as follows: +A religious sect is a body or number of +persons united in tenets, but constituting a +distinct organization or party, by holding +sentiments or doctrines different from those +of other sects or people. In the sense intended +in the constitution, every sect of that +character is sectarian and all members +thereof are sectarians.State v. Hallock, 16 Nev., 373. In Pennsylvania +the court adopted the definitions given in +the Standard and in Webster's + +dictionaries.Stephenson v. Hanyon, 7 Dist. Ct. Rep. Pa., 585. The Supreme Court of Missouri, +citing Webster's and the Century dictionaries, +gave the following additional definition +of sectarianism: Sectarianism includes +adherence to a distinct political party, +as much as to a separate sect.State v. Board, 134 Mo., 296; 35 S. W., 617. The PresbyteriansSynod v. State, 2 S. Dak., 366; 50 N. W., 632; 14 L. R. +A., 418. +and the ShakersStebbins v. Jennings, 10 Pick., Mass., 172. have been +adjudged sects. +

+ +

+ +28. Sectarian.—Sectarian has received +more contradictory constructions +than any other equally simple word in the +English language. In Wisconsin the King +James Bible was held to be a sectarian +book;State v. District Board, 76 Wis., 177; 44 N. W., 967; +20 Am. St. Rep., 41; 7 L. R. A., 330. but in Kentucky it was held that +neither the Douay nor the King James +Bible was a sectarian book.Hackett v. Brooksville, 27 Ky. L., 1021; 87 N. W., 792; +69 L. R. A., 592. The Missouri +court extended sectarian so as to apply to +the Republican party.State v. Board, 134 Mo., 296; 35 S. W., 617; 56 Am. St. +Rep., 503. In Illinois an industrial +school for girls in which the Catholic +Sisters were employed as teachers, was held +a sectarian institution;County v. Industrial School, 125 Ill., 540; 18 N. E., +183; 1 L. R. A., 437; 8 Am. St. Rep., 386. while in Wisconsin, + +the Wisconsin Industrial School for Girls, +a private corporation organized and conducted +by Protestant ladies, has received +appropriations from the State and has had +its reports published at state's expense, as a +non-sectarian institution.Wis. Industrial School for Girls, Wisconsin Blue +Book. Session Laws of Wis., 1907, p. 1416 (index to +Acts). Wis. Industrial School for Girls v. Clark Co., 103 +Wis., 651; 79 N. W., 422. In New York +the religious garb of the Catholic Sisters +was practically decided to be sectarian;O'Connor v. Hendrick, 184 N. Y., 421; 77 N. E., 612. but +in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin it was decided +that the dress of the Sisters was not +sectarian.Hysong v. Gallitzen, 164 Pa., 629; 30 At., 482; 44 Am. +St. Rep., 623; 26 L. R. A., 203; Dorner v. School Dist., +118 N. W., 353 (Nov. 27, 1908). A good résumé of the +subject is given in a footnote in 105 Am. St. R., 151. +

+ +

+29. Worship, Services, Mass.—Any act +of adoration, reverence, praise, thanks, +honor, or veneration given to God, is religious +worship.Stafford v. State, 45 So., 673. A Protestant Dictionary, +Wright & Neil, and Webster's Dictionary, Worship. A +Catholic Dictionary, Addis and Arnold, Latria. A Sunday-school where the +Bible was read and a hymn sung and a state +temperance camp-meeting where a prayer +was said and hymns were sung, were held to +be places of divine worship.Gass's App., 73 Pa., 46; 13 Am. Rep., 726; State v. +Norris, 59 N. H., 536. But a priest's +house where he had a room fitted up for a + +chapel, was held to be not a place of worship.St. Joseph's Church v. Assessors, 12 R. I., 19; 34 Am. +R., 597; Gerke v. Purcell, 25 Ohio, 229; Am. & Eng. Ency. +of L., Worship. +It is very difficult to draw a line—no matter +what curves you may give it—between the +Protestant system of worship, which consists +of the reading of the Bible, the singing +of hymns, and the reciting of prayers, and +such services in the public schools. Also, +there would seem to be no legal difference +between a prayer said or a hymn sung by a +Catholic and a Protestant. As we have no +established church in this country, we have +no standard for prayers, hymns, or music.Ante, 28; Post, 346. +

+ +

+More solemn and impressive than her +prayers adapted for schools is the Mass of +the Catholic Church, defined thus: The +Mass is the unbloody sacrifice of the body +and blood of Christ.Catholic Catechism. It is defined in 26 +Cyc, 940, as follows: A religious ceremonial +or observance of the Catholic +Church;Sherman v. Baker, 20 R. I., 446; 40 At., 11; 40 L. R. +A., 717. a Catholic ceremonial celebrated +by the priest in open church, where all who +choose may be present and participate +therein;Webster v. Surghow, 69 N. H., 380; 45 At., 139; 48 +L. R. A., 100. the sacrifice in the sacrament of + +the Eucharist or the consecration and oblation +of the Host.Coleman v. O'Leary, 114 Ky., 388; 70 S. W., 1068. +

+ +

+30. Parish.—A parish has two meanings. +In some States it is a minor division +of public territory; but in States where there +is no such division of territory, the State +using instead county or town, a parish +rather applies to the people belonging to a +particular church, who worship at a particular +place. It is in the latter sense in +which a parish should be construed in church +law.McEntee v. Bonacum, 66 Neb., 651; 92 N. W., 633. +

+ +

+Parishioner.—A parishioner must be defined +in harmony with the meaning of the +word parish.American and English Encyclopedia of Law, Parishoner. +

+ +

+31. Clergyman.—A clergyman is a man +in holy orders or one who has been ordained +in accordance with the rules of his church +or denomination.Ibid., Minister; 7 Cyc, 189, Clergy. +

+ +

+32. Minister.—A minister is one who +acts as, or performs some of the functions +of, a clergyman.Ibid. +

+ +

+33. Rector or Pastor.—A rector or +pastor is a clergyman who has charge of a +parish.Ibid. +

+ + + +

+34. Religion.—Religion is still further +distinguished, but not very satisfactorily defined, +for the reason that etymologists have +not agreed upon the derivation of the word. +When the matter was brought before our +courts and it became necessary to give a +definition, the highest court in our country +gave the following: The term religion +has reference to one's views of his relations +to his Creator, and to the obligations they +impose of reverence for His being and character, +and of obedience to His will. It is +often confounded with cultus or form of +worship of a particular sect, but it is distinguishable +from the latter.Davies v. Beason, 133 U. S., 333; 33 L. Ed., 637. One of our +highest courts held that religion, as used +in the trust provision in a will for the purchase +and distribution of religious books or +reading as they shall be deemed best, means +Christian.Simpson v. Welcome, 72 Me., 496. But the Supreme Court of +another State held that religion is not +equivalent to Christian religion, but +means the religion of any class of men.Board v. Minor, 23 Ohio St., 250. +Judge Willis defines religion thus: It is +what a man honestly believes in and approves +of and thinks it his duty to inculcate + +on others whether with regard to this world +or the next; a belief in any system of retribution +by an overruling power. It must, I +think, include the principle of gratitude to +an active power who can confer blessings.Baxter v. Langley, 38 L. J., M. C., 1. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter III. Constitutional Law + +

+35. Religious Tests.—The constitution +of the United States provides that no religious +test shall ever be required as a qualification +to any office or public trust under +the United States.Art. vi. +

+ +

+36. Test Oath, Attainder.—No test oath +of any kind, whether religious or otherwise, +can be required of a citizen of the United +States. Therefore the test oath of Congress +requiring an officer to swear that he never +voluntarily bore arms against the United +States, was held unconstitutional. Exclusion +from any vocation on account of past conduct +is punishment and contrary to the constitution +on the subject of bills of attainder.Ex parte Garland, 4 Wallace, 333; 18 L. Ed., 366. +But there is a limitation to this rule to prevent +the open violation of the laws of the +United States or any State under the cloak +of religion.Church of Latter-Day Saints v. U. S., 136 U. S., 1; 34 +L. Ed., 478; 140 U. S., 665; 35 L. Ed., 592. +

+ +

+37. Establishment of Religion, Free Exercise.—The +first amendment to the United + +States constitution provides that Congress +shall make no law respecting an establishment +of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise +thereof. +

+ +

+38. Sovereignty, States, Bigamy.—The +courts have held that this provision applies +to Congress only, and can not be construed +to interfere with the sovereignty of the several +States; that the constitutional guarantee +of religious freedom was not intended to prohibit +legislation against polygamy; and that +section 5352 of the United States Revised +Statutes against bigamy, is constitutional. +Also, that on a trial for bigamy in Utah, a +man who was living in polygamy was not +competent to serve as a juror.Reynolds v. United States, 8 Otto, 145; 25 L. Ed., 244. +

+ +

+39. Church of the Latter-Day Saints.—In +1851 the assembly of the so-called State +of Deseret, which subsequently became the +territory of Utah, incorporated the Church +of the Latter-Day Saints. In 1887 Congress +repealed the act of incorporation and +abrogated the charter, which the Supreme +Court held was within its plenary powers. +The pretense of religious belief can not deprive +Congress of the power to prohibit +polygamy and all other open offenses against +the enlightened sentiments of mankind.Church of Latter-Day Saints v. U. S., 136 U. S., 1; 34 +L. Ed., 478; 140 U. S., 665; 35 L. Ed., 592. +

+ + + +

+40. Crime, Religion.—The law prohibiting +any person who is a polygamist or +bigamist, or who teaches, advises, counsels, +or encourages the same, from holding any +office of honor, trust, or profit, is constitutional; +and a crime is none the less so, nor +less odious, because it is sanctioned by what +any particular sect may designate as religion. +A state has the right to legislate for the punishment +of all acts inimical to the peace, good +order, and morals of society.Davis v. Beason, 133 U. S., 333; 33 L. Ed., 637. +

+ +

+41. Donation, Hostile, Religion.—On +the other hand the United States Supreme +Court declared the legal right of donees of a +college to make as a condition of the donation +that all ecclesiastics, missionaries, and +ministers of any sort, should be excluded +from holding any station of duty in the college +or even visiting the same. The condition +being only negatively derogatory and +hostile to the Christian religion, did not +make the devise for the foundation of the +college void.Fenelon v. Girard, 2 Howard, 127; 11 L. Ed., 205. +

+ +

+42. Christian Scientist.—A law requiring +a person to be a physician to treat the +sick, is constitutional; and the defense of a +person who has no license to practise, that +he is a Christian Scientist, is not good. Also, + +a parent must furnish a doctor for his sick +child, notwithstanding that he believes in +prayer cure.State v. Marble, 72 Ohio St., 21; 73 N. E., 1063; State +v. Chenoweth, 163 Ind., 94; 71 N. E., 197; People v. Reetz, +127 Mich, 87; 86 N. W., 396; 59 Cen. L. J., 202; 68 L. R. +A., 432. +

+ +

+43. Protestant.—In the early days, under +the constitution of the State, the courts +of Massachusetts practically held that the +Protestant religion was the religion of that +State.Thaxter v. Jones, 4 Mass., 570. Also, the constitution of New +Hampshire referred to different Christians, +and the court in construing the terms Roman +Catholic and Protestant, held that +any one who did not assent to the truth of +Christianity as a distinct system of religion, +could not be classed as either. The court +stated that Mohammedans, Jews, pagans, +and infidels, are neither Catholics nor +Protestants. The term Protestant, as +used in the constitution of New Hampshire, +includes all Christians who deny the authority +of the Pope of Rome. When the children +of Protestant parents renounce that religion, +and voluntarily accept another, they +cease to be Protestants.Hale v. Everett, 53 N. H., 9. At present under +the constitution of New Hampshire, the legislature +may authorize towns or parishes to + +provide for the support of Protestant ministers.Federal and State Constitutions, Stimson. +

+ +

+44. Hospitals, Sisters, Appropriation.—In +1864, Providence Hospital, of Washington, +was incorporated by an act of Congress, +for general hospital purposes. In 1897, +$30,000 was appropriated for the District of +Columbia to put up two isolation buildings +in connection with two hospitals in that city, +to be operated as a part of such hospitals. +Providence Hospital was selected as one, and +because it was in charge of Sisters of the +Roman Catholic Church, the right of Congress +to make the appropriation was disputed. +Among other things, Judge Peackham +says: Whether the individuals who +compose the corporation under its charter +happen to be all Roman Catholics, or all +Methodists, or all Presbyterians, or Unitarians, +or members of any other religious +organization, or of no organization at all, is +of not the slightest consequence with reference +to the law of its corporation, nor can +the individual beliefs upon religious matters +of the various incorporators be inquired +into. The appropriation was for two hospital +buildings to be constructed in the discretion +of the commissioners of the District +of Columbia on the grounds of two hospitals + +and to be operated as a part of such hospitals.Bradford v. Roberts, 175 U. S., 291; 44 L. Ed., 168; 20 +Sup. Ct. R., 121; Municipality of Ponce v. The Roman +Catholic Apostolic Church, 28 Sup. Ct. R., 737 (1908). +

+ +

+45. Constitution, Rights.—The provisions +in the constitution do not in any way interfere +with property rights obtained by a +church organization prior to its adoption.Terrett v. Taylor, 9 Cranch, 43; 3 L. Ed., 650; Municipality, +etc., v. Church, 28 Sup. Ct. R., 737. +

+ +

+46. Aid, Contracts.—Under the constitution +of the United States, Congress cannot +make appropriations for nor give aid to any +denomination. Also, similar provisions are +in many of the constitutions of the States. +However, many cases arise out of contracts +which border upon these various rules, and +in some States the constitutional provision of +the State is such that the State Legislature +may legislate concerning religion and give +certain aid and support thereto. Paying rent +to a congregation for a school-room is not +an appropriation or aid to a church contrary +to the constitution.Millard v. Board, 19 Ill., 48; Dorner v. Dist., 118 N. W., +353. +

+ +

+47. Protestant Teacher, Tax.—Formerly +every parish in Massachusetts was obliged +to elect and support a Protestant teacher, +and might erect churches and parsonages. +To provide the expenses thereof, a tax + +might be assessed upon the polls of the +inhabitants.Ashby v. Wellington, 25 Mass., 524. Until 1890 New Hampshire +permitted a tax to be levied in towns for religious +purposes. It is still legal under the +New Hampshire constitution to tax the inhabitants +for the purpose of supporting +Protestant teachers, but not to support a +teacher of any other denomination.Federal and State Constitutions, Stimson, p. 139; Hale +v. Everett, 53 N. H., 9. A section +of land in every township in Ohio was +set apart for religious societies, in which +they all shared equally.State v. Trustees, 11 Ohio, 24. Vermont had a +similar provision.First v. Leach, 35 Vt., 108. +

+ +

+48. Office, God.—The constitutions of +Arkansas, Mississippi, North Carolina, +South Carolina, and Texas, prohibit a man +from holding office who denies the existence +of a Supreme Being; and the constitutions +of Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, and Tennessee, +make all clergymen ineligible to hold +a civil office.Federal and State Constitutions, Stimson, p. 139. +

+ +

+49. Religious Liberty, Bible, Religious +Garb, Wages.—The authorities are not uniform +as to what constitutes a violation of religious +liberty. The question of whether +the reading of the Bible in the public schools +is a violation of the constitution, is an open + +one in some States and in others the courts +have passed upon it, some holding that it is +a violation of the constitution,State v. District, 76 Wis., 177; 44 N. W., 967; 20 Am. +St. R., 41; 7 L. R. A., 330. and some +holding that it is not.Church v. Bullock, 100 S. W. (Tex.), 1025; Millard v. +Board, 121 Ill., 297; 10 N. E., 669; Hackett v. Brooksville, +27 Ky. L., 1021; 87 S. W., 792; 69 L. R. A., 592; 61 C. +L. J., 49. The weight of authority +seems to permit the reading of the +King James Bible,Church v. Bullock, 100 S. W., 1025. and where portions +only are read, as in reading books prepared +for school work, or where the children +are not obliged to be present during the exercises, +the cases seem to be unanimous that +it is not a violation of the constitution.Moore v. Monroe, 64 Ia., 367; 20 N. W., 475; 66 L. R. +A., 166; 52 Am. R., 444; Pfeiffer v. Board, 118 Mich., 560; +77 N. W., 250; 42 L. R. A., 536. In +Pennsylvania the court held that while Sisters +in their religious garb might be teachers +in the public schools, they could not give instruction +in the Catholic religion at the +schoolhouse before or after school hours, or +at any other time use the school building for +religious purposes. Also, in Wisconsin the +court decided that while a portion of a parochial +school building might be leased for +public school purposes and the Sisters be employed +therein as teachers, religious exercises +and instructions could not be given in + +such leased premises.Hysong v. Gallitzin Borough School, 164 Pa. St., 629; +30 At., 482; 26 L. R. A., 203; Dorner v. School District, +118 N. W., Wis., 353 (Nov. 27, 1908). In New York it +was held not only that Sisters could not wear +their religious garb or pray in school, but +that they could not collect wages for teaching.O'Connor v. Hendricks, 96 N. Y. S., 161. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter IV. Statutory Law + +

+50. Wisconsin, Mississippi, New York.—The +statutory law of the different States +of the Union is so varied and the laws of +one State are of so little interest to the people +of another that it would be almost useless +and beyond the boundaries of this work to +give the substance of the various statutes. +In some States there is a limitation upon the +real estate that a church or charitable organization +may hold, and in other States +there is no limitation whatever. Wisconsin, +perhaps, occupies the extreme of greatest +liberality, by not only allowing full freedom +in everything relating to religion and charity, +but it further excepts from the limitation +all rights of alienation of real estate granted +or devised to a charitable association or to +literary or charitable corporations organized +under the law of the State. The State of +Mississippi probably stands at the other extreme +both in the narrowness of its constitution +and statutory law, and prohibits any + +devise or bequest of any personal property +or real estate in favor of any religious or +ecclesiastical corporation or any religious or +ecclesiastical society. Neither does it exempt +a clergyman, physician, or lawyer, +from examination as a witness concerning +information that he obtained in the performance +of his functions or duties as such. Its +judges, however, are more liberal than its +legislators, and I know of no instance in +which a clergyman, physician, or lawyer, as +a witness, was sent to jail for contempt of +court for not divulging information obtained +in his professional capacity. Probably +New York has the most complete codeCh. 723, L. 1895. +relating to religious corporations. +

+ +

+51. Real Estate, Parish, Diocese, Taxation.—It +is very important that a congregation +about to purchase real estate should examine +and understand the statutory law of +the State governing the powers and authority +of the Church as a civil organization. In +some States there is no special law for incorporating +religious societies; while in most +States there are special provisions therefor. +For this reason, I emphasize the fact that no +parish or clergyman is justified in organizing +a congregation or purchasing land without +first knowing the law of that particular + +State. But generally it is best that each congregation +be incorporated and that its property +be held in the name of the corporation, +so that the debts of one corporation will not +embarrass the diocese, and that bequests and +gifts made to a church may be enforced in +the courts. The proceedings to incorporate +are fully stated in the statutes of each State. +One of the things of the utmost importance +is that any notice to be given must be given +strictly as required by law.West v. Otteson, 80 Wis., 62; 49 N. W., 24; Ferraria +v. Vasconcellos, 23 Ill., 456; 31 Ill., 25. Another is to +incorporate in the way that avoids taxation.Gitzhoffen v. Sisters, 88 Pac., 691; 32 Utah, 46; Trustees +v. B. P. O. E., 122 Wis., 452; 100 N. W., 837. +

+ +

+52. Riot, Damages.—Under a statute +providing that a person whose property is +destroyed by riot may bring suit against the +county for damages, a corporation for religious +purposes, as well as an individual, has +a right of action.Hermits v. County, 7 Pa. L. J., 124. +

+ +

+53. Use, Change, Parsonage, Discipline, +Doctrine, Curate.—When a fee simple is +acquired by a religious corporation, without +restriction as to quantity, but limiting the +purpose of its use, a subsequent Legislature, +with the consent of the corporation, has +power to change or abrogate altogether the +restrictions as to the use of the land.Trustees v. Manning, 72 Md., 116; 19 At., 599. And + +the Legislature may empower the church +corporation to convey a house devised to it +for a parsonage with a condition that it be +kept in repair, and invest the proceeds in +other property to be held for the same purpose.In re Van Horn, 18 R. I., 389. +A State legislature can not interfere +in church discipline and doctrine, as by legislating +what shall constitute a curate in the +Catholic Church.Wardens v. Blanc, 8 Rob, La., 51. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter V. Unincorporated Church Societies + +

+54. Partners, Debt, Liability.—Where +several go into an undertaking without first +being incorporated they are usually liable as +partners, each one being responsible for the +whole debt. In some States the same liability +exists where an attempt has been made +to incorporate, but there was a failure to +comply fully with the law.Rutherford v. Hill, 22 Or., 218; 29 Pac., 546; 17 L. R. +A., 549; 56 Cen. L. J., 221; Wechselberg v. Flour, 64 F., 90. There is some +authority freeing the individual members of +a religious society from liability for the +debts of such society,Jewett v. Thames Bank, 16 Conn., 511. and holding that an +agent of such society could not bind the society +in their associated capacity by a promissory +note,Jeffts v. York, 10 Cushing, 392. but the rule is that the members +of an unincorporated society who actively +incur lawful debts or ratify them after their +creation are personally liable. There are +exceptions to this rule by statute or decisions + +in a few States.Allen v. M. E. Church, 127 Ia., 96; 102 N. W., 808; 69 +L. R. A., 255; Sawyer v. Methodist, 18 Vt., 405. Also, the law of personal +liability is settled in England.Wise v. Perpetual Trustees, House of Lords, 57 C. L. +J., 104. +

+ +

+55. Pastor, Salary.—In a late case in +Wisconsin where a pastor had a contract +with his congregation as to his salary, after +the clergyman's death his heirs recovered +the unpaid part of his salary in an action +against a few of the individual members of +the congregation.Sheehy v. Blake, 77 Wis., 394; 46 N. W., 537; 69 L. +R. A., 255. +

+ +

+56. Building, Materials.—The members +of the building committee of an unincorporated +church are liable for materials purchased +by them for the church, notwithstanding +that the seller charged the materials +in the name of the church, and that +at the time that the purchase was made, he +was told that the money for payment was +to be raised by subscription among the congregation.Clark v. O'Rourke, 111 Mich., 108; 69 N. W., 147. +

+ +

+57. Management, Disability.—An unincorporated +society is managed by those who +are competent to transact their own business. +Therefore, it would seem that members +must be men over twenty-one years of +age, and not under legal disability. The + +minor sons in a family who have continued +their attendance at the religious services +until of full age, are considered members.Bradford v. Cary, 5 Me., 339; Lynch v. Pfeiffer, 110 +N. Y., 33; 17 N. E., 402; In re St. Luke's, 17 Philadelphia, +261. +

+ +

+58. Shakers, Sect, Catholic Church, +Trustees, Funds.—Although the sect called +Shakers is not incorporated, yet it has been +allowed to take and hold property for church +purposes.Addison v. Brock, 3 Me., 243. In Massachusetts, by statute, a +sect may take and hold property for religious +purposes without incorporation.Stebbins v. Jennings, 10 Pickering, 172. The +Roman Catholic Church is a recognized public +corporation by most nations, including +the United States.Municipality of Ponce v. Roman Catholic Church, 28 +Sup. Ct. R., 737; 6 Cyc, 915. No individual member +of any such body has any title to the lands +it holds, but the lands are the property of +the society in its aggregate capacity.Ferraria v. Vasconcellos, 31 Ill., 25; Mason v. Muncaster, +9 Wheaton, 468; 6 L. Ed., 131. After +property has been acquired, the trustees +have no right to distribute it among the +members, as such power could not be conferred +upon them by a majority vote even +when approved by an order of the court. +The contributors did not intend their funds +to be so disposed of, and if they failed to +attain the use intended, they must be returned + +to the donors, and if not called for, +would escheat to the state.Wheaton v. Gates, 18 N. Y., 395. Where an unincorporated +society has purchased property +and taken the title thereto in the name of +one of its members, when it subsequently +incorporates such member may be required +to execute a conveyance to the corporation.South v. Yates, 1 Hoff. N. Y., 142; Miller v. Chittendon, +42 Ia., 252; Newmarket v. Smart, 45 N. H., 87; Evangelical +Appeal, 35 Pa. St., 316. +

+ +

+59. Contract, Binding.—Persons forming +a religious society may make a contract +for the support of its minister by a majority +vote.Congregational Society v. Swan, 2 Vt., 222. When such unincorporated society +by a majority vote enters into a contract or +compromises a suit, it is binding upon the +minority.Horton v. Baptist Church, 34 Vt., 309. +

+ +

+60. Court, Trust.—Any member of an +unincorporated society may go into a court +of equity on behalf of himself and others to +enforce the execution of a trust in favor of +the society.Associated Reform Church v. Theological Seminary, 4 +N. J. Eq., 77. +

+ +

+61. Societies, Membership, Forfeiture.—Voluntary +religious societies when not restricted +by their charters or articles of association, +may make by-laws declaring what +shall constitute membership and what shall + +operate as a forfeiture thereof, applicable +to existing as well as to future members. +Where money is voted to be raised by an +assessment to be made at a subsequent +period, a person who was a member of the +religious society at the time that such vote +was passed, but withdraws before the time +of assessment, is not liable to taxation.Taylor v. Edison, 4 Cushing, 522. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter VI. Incorporated Religious Societies + +

+62. Special Law, General Laws.—In +most of the States there is a special law +under which congregations may be incorporated. +New York is a good example.Laws of 1895, ch. 723; Religious Corporations, Cummings +and Gilbert. +Where such law does not exist, the congregation +may be incorporated under the general +laws. For business reasons each congregation +should be incorporated.Heiss v. Vosburg, 59 Wis., 532; 18 N. W., 463. +

+ +

+63. Officers, Discipline, Property.—When +a church society incorporates it becomes +a private corporation, and the officers +are bound to manage the property in the +most upright and careful manner according +to the discipline of the church.Tartar v. Gibbs, 24 Md., 323. When a +parish incorporates, the title to the parish +property vests in the corporation, to which +trustees may be compelled to convey it.Christian C. v. C., 219 Ill., 503; 76 N. E., 703. +

+ +

+64. Incorporation, Evidence.—The certificate +of incorporation or charter of a religious +society or a certified copy thereof + +from the public record, is the proper evidence +thereof.Jackson v. Legate, 9 Wendell, N. Y., 377. Secondary evidence and +evidence aliunde may be competent in some +forums.10 Cyc, 235-244. In most States if incorporation is +alleged in the complaint, it need not be +proved unless denied by an affidavit or a +verified answer. +

+ +

+65. Congregation, Members.—The act +of incorporation applies only to the particular +congregation petitioning for it and does +not extend to other churches, even though +they are a subsequent growth within the +same territory.Atty-Gen. v. Dutch, 36 N. Y., 452. Incorporation once established +is presumed to continue.Methodist v. Pickett, 23 Barber, 436. When a +new religious society is formed and incorporated, +consisting of individuals from existing +parishes, the members of the new society +from the time of its incorporation cease +to be members of the respective parishes +to which they had belonged.Sutton v. Cole, 8 Mass., 96. +

+ +

+66. Temporal Affairs, Management.—A +majority of a religious corporation at a regularly +called meeting may, by a vote taken, +bind the minority in all temporal affairs.Miller v. English, 21 N. J. L., 317. +The character of membership in the religious +corporation may be very different from + +that of membership in the church.Enos v. Church, 187 Mass., 40; 72 N. E., 253. The +fact that a member has been declared out of +the church by an ecclesiastical tribunal, may +not affect his rights in the management of +the temporal concerns of the corporation.Baptist v. Wetherell, 3 Paige, N. Y., 296; In re Williams, +105 N. Y. S., 1105; Contra: First R. P. Ch. v. Bowden, +10 Abb., N. C., 1. +

+ +

+67. Corporators, Change.—In isolated +cases here and there it has been held that a +majority of the corporators of a religious +society has the right to change the form of +church government, as from the Congregational +Church to an organization in connection +with the Presbyterian Church.Bellports v. Tooker, 29 Barber, N. Y., 256. But +it is a general rule that a majority of the +congregation can act only consistently with +the particular and general laws of the +church organization, but not in violation of +them.Sutter v. First, 42 Pa. St., 503. +

+ +

+68. Constitution, Subsequent Laws.—An +ecclesiastical society formed before the +adoption of the state constitution is not by +that constitution and subsequent laws concerning +religious societies divested of its +legal character.Atwater v. Woodbridge, 6 Conn., 223. +

+ +

+69. Name, Change.—The name of an +ecclesiastical corporation is arbitrary and a + +change or alteration in its name does not +affect its identity.Wardens v. Hall, 22 Conn., 125. A charter will not be +granted to a church with a name so like another +church in the same State, that one may +be taken for the other.Beach, Private Corporations, vol. i, p. 608. +

+ +

+70. Church, Regular.—In church organizations +those who adhere to the regular +order of the church, legal and general, +though a minority, are the true congregation +and constitute the corporation if incorporated.Free Ch. of Scotland v. Overton, Appeal Cases, House +of Lords, 1904; Winnebrenner v. Colder, 43 Pa. St., 244. +

+ +

+71. Notice, Legal.—All the proceedings +of a corporation, including notice, must be +in accordance with the constitution and by-laws, +and no business transacted contrary +thereto is legal.Rules of Order, Scanlan, c. iii. +

+ +

+72. Control, Secede, Vested Rights.—The +officers of a church corporation have +control of the business management for all +civil purposes, excepting as otherwise provided +by the articles of organization, charter, +or by-laws of the corporation. However, +the by-laws must not contravene the +laws of the State.Christ's Ev. L. C., 5 Pa. Co. Court, 121. A charter was refused +in Pennsylvania which provided that the + +congregation might, by a majority vote, dissolve +or secede from the central body and +divide the property.In re Zion, 8 Kulp. Pa., 239. A charter of incorporation +may be amended in harmony with +the principles, discipline, and objects of the +church, but not otherwise.In re Hebron, 9 Phil., 609. The fact that +incorporation of a church confers certain +rights and privileges under the charter, such +charter being accepted, does not give the +church corporation any vested rights.U. S. v. Church, 5 Utah, 361, 394, and 538; 15 Pac., +473; 16 Pac., 723; 18 Pac., 35. +

+ +

+73. Consolidation, Control, Dissolution.—So +far as the State law is concerned, two +different denominations may form one corporation;Neil v. Vestry, 8 Gill., 116. +or two or more congregations +of the same organization may form one corporation.Madison v. Baptist, 26 N. Y., 570; Stokes v. Phelps, +47 Hun., 570. +Where such consolidation is attempted, +the new organization must have +control of all the property.German, etc., 9 Pa. Co. C., 12. So long as different +congregations attempting to consolidate +retain their respective identities, they do +not form a single corporation.Evenson v. Ellingson, 72 Wis., 242; 39 N. W., 330. It is a general +rule that a corporation may be dissolved +by taking the steps required by law. As +there are various statutory provisions in the + +different States, each case had best be attended +to by an attorney. In some States +there is a provision that where a corporation +fails to carry out its functions for a stated +time, it thereby becomes dissolved. The +omission of a parish for one year to elect +officers, does not necessarily operate as a dissolution +under such statute. In case of dissolution +under a statute of that kind, the +property of the church is not forfeited to the +State.Toby v. Wareham, 54 Mass., 440. +

+ +

+74. Debt, Limited.—The amount of debt +which the trustees of a religious society may +be authorized to create, may be limited by its +constitution.Weber v. Zimmerman, 22 Md., 156; Wyncoop v. Cong., +10 La., 185. +

+ +

+75. Conditions, Effect.—Where $1,000 +was given defendants to erect and maintain +forever a Lutheran church and prohibiting +the grantee from alienating or disposing of +or otherwise changing or encumbering the +land by deed, a mortgage given to secure a +legitimate debt was held valid, as the legal +title was in the corporation and a court of +equity could not refuse to enforce the mortgage +for the payment of an honest debt +under color of protecting a charitable use.Magie v. German, 13 N. J. Eq., 77. +But property given a congregation for the + +maintenance of a church that becomes dissolved, +reverts to the heirs as a resulting +trust.Esterbrook v. Tillinghast, 71 Mass., 17. A corporation that has been authorized +to purchase land may execute a mortgage +for the purchase money or a part of it +without further authority.South v. Clapp, 18 Barber, N. Y., 35. Where by an +ancient agreement a meeting-house was to +remain in a particular place, a vote of the +congregation will not justify pulling it +down, and an action of trespass will lie for +razing it and damages will be given for the +value of the building.Tilden v. Metcalf, 2 Day, Conn., 259; Heiss v. Vosburg, +59 Wis., 532; 18 N. W., 518. +

+ +

+76. Suits, Parties.—When a church is +incorporated, it should be sued in its corporate +name; but when the bishop of the +Catholic church holds the legal title to the +land in litigation, he should be made a +party.Keller v. Tracy, 11 Ia., 530. And if there are two sets of officers +contending for control, service of the papers +upon the intruders may not be sufficient. The +safer practice is to serve upon both.Verrian v. Methodist, 44 Abbott Pr., 424. A +suit by the trustees of a religious society to +restrain other parties claiming to be trustees +from interfering in the management and +control of the society property, is properly + +brought in the corporate name of the trustees +and not in the name of the State.Trustees v. Hoessli, 13 Wis., 348. +

+ +

+77. Incorporation, Sufficient.—Where +the articles of incorporation were drawn and +signed in the form required by law, excepting +as to the acknowledgment, and were recorded, +and the corporation organized in +good faith, it became a de facto corporation +and was sufficient to entitle it to sue to prevent +certain members from perverting the +use of its property.Franke v. Mann, 106 Wis., 118; 81 N. W., 1014. +

+ +

+78. Dissolution, Fund.—The corporation +of a congregation can not by seceding and +a majority vote dissolve the corporation +where it is a part of a superior body.Den. v. Pilling, 24 N. J. L., 653. But +the courts have plenary powers over corporations +under the United States jurisdiction, +such as territories, and may dissolve a corporation.Mormon v. United States, 136 U. S., 1; 33 L. Ed., 639. +The fact that the dissolution is +contrary to, or authorized by church discipline, +makes no difference as to granting the +dissolution, as such discipline can not supersede +the state law.In re Methodist, 67 Hun., 86. On dissolution of a religious +corporation, the surplus fund derived +from a legacy should be disposed of in +the manner the court believes to be most in + +harmony with the will of the contributors to +the fund, could they have foreseen the +event.In re Union, 6 Abb., N. C., 398. +

+ +

+79. Reorganization.—A church corporation +may reorganize and be reinstated into +all rights that it formerly had.First v. Brownell, 5 Hun., 464. The steps +to be taken to reorganize are usually provided +by statute and should be closely followed. +Upon the reorganization, the old +corporation becomes terminated.Evenson v. Ellingson, 72 Wis., 242; 39 N. W., 330. +

+ +

+80. Meetings, Majority, Quorum.—In +corporate meetings, meetings of boards, and +meetings of committees duly called, a majority +vote of those present determines the +action of the body. If the membership is indefinite, +those who attend such meeting constitute +a quorum; but if the membership is +definite, it requires a majority of the voting +members to constitute a quorum, unless the +law of the State or the constitution (articles +of organization) or by-laws provide a different +number.Rules of Order, Scanlan, 20; Tartar v. Gibbs, 24 Md., +328; Sutter v. First, 42 Pa. St., 503. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter VII. Superior Authority + +

+81. Protestant, Ministers, Bishop.—In +most church organizations the authority is +divided into superior and inferior. In countries +where there is an established Protestant +church, the superior authority is first +in the king and queen and secondly in the +bishops. The inferior authority is in the +ministers and secular officers of the church. +Where there is no established church, the +synod or bishop is the superior authority. +Thus decisions of our courts usually apply +to all churches alike. +

+ +

+82. Roman Catholic Church, Pope, Bishops, +Delegated.—In the Roman Catholic +Church the superior authority is first in the +Pope and secondly in the other bishops. +This superior authority is graded and some +of it may be delegated, as in case of a Papal +delegate. But the general rule that delegated +authority can not be again delegated +by the delegate without special authority +applies to church matters. +

+ + + +

+83. Bishop, Discipline, Clergy.—Within +his diocese the bishop is the executive officer, +the legislature, and the judiciary; but he is +subject to the superior authority of the +Church. The bishop may make laws for his +diocese, subject to the limitation of the general +doctrine and discipline of the Church. +He has original jurisdiction of all causes +arising in his diocese, and may decide them +in the first instance and inflict such penalties, +suspension, or excommunication, in accordance +with the canons of the Church, as +he deems fit. The clergy are subject to his +orders and discipline according to the canon +law. However, without special contract, the +bishop is not civilly liable for the salary of +a priest under him, either while he is actually +in the line of his assigned duties or while +waiting to be assigned.Rose v. Vertin, 46 Mich., 457; 9 N. W., 491; Tuigg v. +Sheehan, 101 Pa. St., 363. +

+ +

+84. Local, Secular Matters.—There is +still another division of superior and inferior +authority: the local corporation or +congregation has nothing whatever to do +with the doctrinal or disciplinary functions +of the Church; but has only such powers +and authority with regard to secular matters +as is provided by the laws of the State +or conferred by the articles of organization, + +charter, and by-laws. Also, unless there is +some other rule to the contrary, only the +male members who are over twenty-one +years of age, have a voice and vote in such +corporation.Am. & Eng. Ency. of L., Religious Societies. +

+ +

+85. Unincorporated, Authority.—When +a church is not incorporated, all its elections +and proceedings, so far as they are not contrary +to the laws of the State, must be in +accordance with the rules and regulations +of the Church; and the rule that the inferior +authority must give way to the superior +authority in all matters within the limitations +of the constitution and laws of the +organization, prevails.Den. v. Bolton, 12 N. J. L., 206. However, courts +are not always clear on the last part of this +rule.Bonacum v. Murphy, 65 Neb., 831, and 71 Neb., 463; +98 N. W., 1030; 102 N. W., 267, and 104 N. W., 180. +

+ +

+86. Tribunal, Action, Appeal.—When +any question arises and is being adjudicated +in the tribunal of the church organization, +either as an original action or on appeal, the +State court will not interfere so long as the +proceedings are in accordance with the rules +and regulations of the church, unless some +vested right to property is in question or + +some one's right as a citizen of the State or +of the United States is being infringed.Bonacum v. Murphy, 71 Neb., 463; 104 N. W., 180; +Bowden v. MacLeod, 1 Edw., N. Y., 588. +

+ +

+87. Spiritual Authority, Excommunication.—Neither +the Pope nor the bishop has +any but spiritual authority within the State.Congregation v. Martin, 4 Rob., La., 62. +The law of this country considers excommunication +as expelling from membership; +but does not tolerate interference with civil +or property rights of citizens. Therefore, +major excommunication non tolerati, is unlawful +in the United States.Fitzgerald v. Robinson, 112 Mass., 371; Grosvenor v. +United States, 118 Mass., 78; Post, 132. However, a +bishop is not liable for any expression of +his opinion as to the extent of his episcopal +authority nor for any act of omission in the +exercise of his spiritual functions.Wardens v. Blanc, 8 Rob., La., 51. The +civil courts will not go behind a church +authority to inquire as to excommunication, +but may examine as to the competency of +the tribunal according to the laws of the +denomination.Bowldin v. Alexander, 82 U. S., 131; 21 L. Ed., 69. +

+ +

+88. Constitution, Limited, Decisions.—A +written constitution is not necessary to +prove the connection between a subordinate +and superior ecclesiastical body; but it will +be inferred from the circumstances of the + +case.Den. v. Pilling, 24 N. J. L., 653. The superior may dissolve or reorganize +an inferior body as a congregation.Appeal of McAuley, 77 Pa., 397. +In fact the superior authority, in religious +matters, is plenary, excepting as limited by +the laws of the State and the constitution of +the Church.Smith v. Swormstedt, 57 U. S., 288; 14 L. Ed., 942. The decisions of the ecclesiastical +tribunals in all cases on doctrine, +order, and discipline, are conclusive in the +state courts.Skilton v. Webster, Bright, Pa., 203; Mt. Helena Bp. +Ch., 79 Miss., 488; 30 So. Rep., 714. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter VIII. Inferior Authority + +

+89. Priesthood, Discipline.—The inferior +authority in the Church may be said to be +in the priesthood, whose rights and duties +are fixed by the canon law, but who are still +further subject to the reasonable diocesan +rules made by the bishop. The disciplinary +relation of a priest to his bishop is substantially +the same as that of a captain to his +colonel, and implicit obedience in accordance +with the discipline of the Church may be +strictly enforced by the bishop in so far as +it relates to ecclesiastical matters, including +doctrine and discipline, in which the priest +can not resort to the courts of the State, but +must submit to the tribunals of the church.Smith v. Swormstedt, 57 U. S., 288; 14 L. Ed., 942. +

+ +

+90. Congregation, Insubordinate, Discipline.—The +male members of a congregation +are invested with no visitorial or controling +power, but only such authority as is +given under the laws of incorporation.Tartar v. Gibbs, 24 Md., 323; Papalion v. Manusos, +113 Ill. App., 316. + +Where an inferior organization, as a congregation, +refuses to receive a clergyman +appointed by the bishop, it is an act of insubordination +to the ecclesiastical authority +of the Church and in violation of its discipline, +which authorizes the issuing of a peremptory +mandamus commanding them to +admit the clergyman.People v. Steele, 2 Barber, 397. +

+ +

+91. Pastor, Parish, Relation.—When a +clergyman's connection with a church had +been duly dissolved, he ceased to be pastor +of the church and an arrangement with the +parish to retain his relation as pastor of +such church was nugatory and void.Stebbins v. Jennings, 10 Pickering, 172. +

+ +

+92. Clergymen, Citizens.—Clergymen residing +in an incorporated town are not exempt +from the performance of any duties +required of citizens, unless such exemption +is given by statute.Elizabeth City v. Kennedy, Bush, 44, N. C. Law, 89. +

+ +

+93. Doctrine and Discipline, Authority.—In +all matters concerning doctrine and +discipline of the Church, the inferior authority, +such as ministers, priests, and deacons, +as well as the congregation, must +submit to the decision of the higher authority, +whether bishop, synod, or council.Diffendorf v. Reformed Church, 20 Johns., N. Y., 12. +

+ + + +

+94. Sect, Suit, Property.—A number of +people formed a congregation and became +incorporated in 1810, the members being +mostly of Presbyterian extraction. This independent +congregation bought and paid for +property, the title vesting in the corporation. +In 1811 the congregation passed resolutions +unanimously that it would be imprudent +and unscriptural to establish a new +religious sect, and voted to join the First +Reformed Dutch Church, which had an +organization of inferior and superior authority. +The congregation was received +into and became a part of the general organization, +and remained so until 1860, +when a majority of the congregation voted +to employ a Methodist minister, and when +his name was submitted to the superior +authority, the classis, he was rejected as +not belonging to the church. Then by a +majority vote, the congregation seceded and +assumed its first name, and thereafter +brought suit for the church property. The +court held that by joining the First Reformed +Dutch Church, the title of the +property vested in the congregation of that +church as represented by its corporation, +and that when the majority seceded and left +the church, they had no right nor title to +any of the property. And the court laid + +down the general rule that a majority of a +church congregation may direct and control +any church matters consistently with the +particular and general laws of the organization +or denomination to which it belongs, +but not in violation of them.Sutton v. Trustees, 42 Pa., 503. +

+ +

+95. Priest, Salary.—The fact that a +bishop who holds the title to all the diocesan +property in his own name in trust appoints +a priest to the parish or as chaplain to a +hospital, does not give the priest a right of +action against the bishop personally for his +salary. The relation of bishop and priest is +not that of employer and employe, but is +that of ecclesiastical superior and inferior.Baxter v. McDonald, 155 N. Y., 83; 49 N. E., 667. +

+ +

+96. Curate, Induction, Rector.—The jus +patronatus of the Spanish law has been abrogated +in Louisiana. The wardens of the +church can not compel a bishop to institute +a curate of their appointment, nor is he in +any sense subordinate in his clerical functions +to the wardens of any church within +his diocese.Wardens v. Blanc, 8 Rob., 51. In the absence of a positive +rule of the ecclesiastical body, no ceremony +of induction is necessary for the rector of a +parish.Young v. Ransom, 31 Barb., 49. A clergyman appointed permanently +to a rectorship holds it for an indefinite + +period during the pleasure of the +contracting parties, and either of the contracting +parties may give the other notice of +termination, and with the concurrence of +the higher ecclesiastical authority of the diocese, +a change may be made.Perry v. Wheeler, 75 Ky., 541. It is doubtful, +however, whether in most States a permanent +appointment would not be construed +as a contract for life, determinable only for +good cause.Sheldon v. Easton, 4 Mass., 281; Congregation v. +Peres, 42 Tenn., 620; Thompson v. Catholic, 22 Mass., 469. +

+ +

+97. Controversy, Tribunal, Decision.—When +the clergyman and his parishioners +submit a controversy to an ecclesiastical +tribunal, the decision, if not impeached for +good cause, is justification in the party conforming +to it.Proprietors v. Proprietors, 48 Mass., 496. And a minister who submits +to a church tribunal and is ousted after +fair hearing and trial, can not obtain a writ +of mandamus from the civil court to compel +his reinstatement.Dempsey v. North, 98 Mich., 444; 57 N. W., 267. Also, after a minister +has been dismissed in due manner by the +tribunal of his denomination, the civil court +will enjoin him from usurping his office.Hackett v. Mt. Pleasant, 46 Ark., 291. +

+ +

+98. Priest, Dwelling, Servant.—A Catholic +priest in charge of a congregation at +the will of the bishop and occupying a dwelling-house + +belonging to the church, is a servant +and not a tenant, and his right to occupancy +ceases with his services.Chatard v. O'Donovan, 80 Ind., 20. The law +is different with regard to a Methodist minister +who is in charge of his parish by an +annual conference and can not be ejected +by the congregation or bishop until the +next conference, as he has possession of +the church property without superior authority.Brestor v. Burr, 120 N. Y., 427; 8 L. R. A., 710; 24 N. +E., 937. +

+ +

+99. Injunction, Bishop, Priest, Trial.—On +application for an injunction to restrain +the bishop from passing a sentence against +a priest, the only ground on which a court +can exercise jurisdiction is that the threatened +action of the bishop will affect the civil +rights of the priest.Walker v. Wainwright, 16 Barb., 486. A bishop can not remove +a priest without an accusation, hearing, +or trial, and forbid him to exercise any +priestly function where such removal would +cut off the priest's income and destroy his +means of living in his vocation.O'Hara v. Stack, 90 Pa., 477. However, +in the same case it was held that a complaint +stating that the bishop failed and neglected +to assign the plaintiff to the exercise of his +office of priest in said diocese to the plaintiff's + +damage, etc., failed to show that any +right of property or civil right was involved +and the priest was non-suited, while in the +former case an injunction was issued +against the bishop.Stack v. O'Hara, 98 Pa. St., 213. +

+ +

+100. Confession, Privacy, Authority.—A +Catholic priest, although about to administer +an office of his religion to a sick person +at the latter's request, has no legal authority, +by virtue of his priestly character, to forcibly +remove from the room a person lawfully +there.Cooper v. McKenna, 104 Mass., 284. +

+ +

+101. Debts, Permission, Presumed.—Notwithstanding +a rule or ecclesiastical law +of the church that a pastor shall not contract +debts in the name or for the sake of the +church without the written permission of +the bishop, such written permission is not +evidence that debts contracted under it are +the legal debts of the bishop. The authority +which bishops delegate to priests is under +the ecclesiastical law and prima facie ecclesiastical +authority, and must be presumed to +be so in the absence of all evidence to the +contrary.Leahy v. Williams, 141 Mass., 345. +

+ +

+102. Official Acts, Subscriptions.—The +official acts of a minister coming in question +incidentally, unless contrary to the statute, + +are as valid as the official acts of any other +officer.State v. Winkle, 14 N. H., 480. A clergyman who was engaged to +conduct dedication services and was requested +by the officers of the local corporation +to solicit subscriptions for paying off +the indebtedness of the church, but was not +appointed agent to receive such subscriptions, +had no authority to accept a subscription +for the corporation.Methodist v. Sherman, 36 Wis., 404. +

+ +

+103. Exemptions, Clergy.—The exemptions +given ministers by the statutes of some +States are liberally construed.Baldwin v. McKlinch, 1 Me., 102. Without +any statutory exemption, the clergy are +liable for all duties required of other citizens.Elizabeth City v. Kennedy, 44 N. C., 89. +

+ +

+104. Minister, Contributions, Deposed.—No +religious teacher or minister can be enjoined +from receiving voluntary contributions, +although he has been deposed by some +ecclesiastical tribunal.Calkins v. Cheney, 92 Ill., 463. +

+ +

+105. Fees, Usages, Excess.—The fees of +a priest of the Catholic Church are regulated +by the laws and usages of that Church, +and where in this country the pew rent and +collections go for the support of the priest +and the current church expenses, a priest is + +not accountable for the excess of such collections +over these expenditures.St. Patrick's v. Daly, 116 Ill., 76; 4 N. E., 241. +

+ +

+106. Salary, Fees.—Under the act of +March, 1814, incorporating a congregation, +the congregation, being the legal owners and +temporal administrators of the property +which it was authorized to hold, had the +exclusive power to fix the salary of the +parish priest or the tariff of fees for marriages, +burial, etc. No such power could be +exercised under that act by the Pope or any +bishop.Congregation v. Martin, 4 Rob., La., 62. +

+ +

+107. Clergyman, Salary.—Where a clergyman +agreed with a congregation that the +salary should be what could be raised by +subscription, the congregation was bound +to use due diligence in procuring subscriptions, +and as it did so, that was all that the +clergyman could recover.Meyer v. Baptist, 38 Vt., 614. +

+ +

+108. Curate, Services.—In an action by +a curate against a religious corporation for +personal services, the court will not inquire +into the spiritual relations existing between +the parties, but will examine their legal +rights only.Congregation v. Martin, 4 Rob., 62. +

+ +

+109. Minister, Dismissal, Money Advanced.—After +a parish has voted to dismiss + +the minister, it is not competent to prove +irregular conduct or immorality in answer +to his claim for salary, without alleging it +in the vote of dismissal.Whittmore v. Fourth, 68 Mass., 306. In Illinois it was +held that a priest who advanced money from +his private resources for improving church +property, had an equitable lien upon the +property for all the money advanced, with +legal interest.St. Patrick's v. Daly, 4 N. E., 241; 116 Ill., 76. But in Pennsylvania, where +a priest under the direction of the bishop +built a church in his parish for mission purposes, +and in doing so expended some of his +own money, it was held that in the absence +of proof of any rule or custom of the Catholic +Church making the payment of such expenses +obligatory on the parish, that he +could not recover the money so expended +from his congregation.Tuigg v. Treacy, 104 Pa., 493. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter IX. Membership + +

+110. Business, Religious Membership.—Unless +there is some other law or rule to the +contrary, the male members of the congregation +over twenty-one years of age constitute +the business membership of a religious +society.Tartar v. Gibbs, 24 Md., 323. But the question of membership +of religious societies or congregations is left +to be determined by the rules of the religious +denomination to which they belong.Heiss v. Murphy, 40 Wis., 276, 278; Den. v. Pilling, 24 +N. J. L., 653. And +where a condition of membership is that the +person must contribute to the support of the +church and be a communicant, if he is not +a communicant he is not entitled to vote.Weckerly v. Geyer, 11 Ser. R. Pa., 35. +

+ +

+111. Regular, Doctrines, Support.—The +ones who adhere and submit to the regular +order and doctrines of the church, although +a minority, constitute the true congregation.Weinbrenner v. Colder, 43 Pa. St., 244. +At least two things must concur to +qualify a person as a voter: first, stated attendance + +at divine worship in the congregation; +and, second, contribution to the +support of the church.People v. Tuthil, 31 N. Y., 550. The list of members +kept by the clerk or secretary of the +congregation is evidence of membership.Price v. Lyon, 14 Conn., 280. +A person who denies any part of the system +of theology received and taught by the denomination +is not a member of the church.Suter v. Spangler, 4 Phil., 331. +

+ +

+112. Factions, Authority.—Where two +factions of a church, each claiming to be the +church, try members of the other faction, +a court may determine which of the factions +is the authorized authority or that the +action taken by either or both of them is +nugatory for want of authority.Smith v. Pedigo, 145 Ind., 36; 32 L. R. A., 836; 33 N. +E., 777. +

+ +

+113. Faith, Burial.—Whether a person +died in the faith of the Roman Catholic +Church so as to be entitled to burial in its +cemetery, is not a question within the jurisdiction +of civil courts, but must be decided +by the ecclesiastical authorities.McGuire v. Trustees, 54 Hun., 207. +

+ +

+114. Rules, Membership.—Every denomination +has the right to prescribe by +rules, its constitution, or its by-laws, the +conditions of membership; and any one who + +will not subscribe to and practise the doctrines +of the denomination is not a member.Church v. Halverson, 42 Minn., 503; 44 N. W., 563; +Day v. Bolton, 12 N. J. L., 206; Den. v. Pilling, 24 N. J. +L., 653. +

+ +

+115. Minor.—Where the legal members +of a society that is incorporated consist of +male members of the church of full age, +when minor sons become of age, they become +legal members of the corporation, provided +they remain in the church.Osgood v. Bradley, 7 Me., 411. +

+ +

+116. Officers, Non-Members.—It has +been held that a person may be an officer +or member of the church corporation or its +temporal concerns without being a member +of the denomination.Baptist v. Witherell, 24 Am. Dec., 223; 3 The Catholic +Cyclopedia, 755; Contra: First R. P. Ch. v. Bowden, 10 +Abb., N. C, 1. See post 134, 156. +

+ +

+117. Debts, Unincorporated Parish.—In +Connecticut members of an ecclesiastical +society formed by voluntary association +under the statutes of the State are not individually +liable for the debts of such society.Jewett v. Thames, 16 Conn., 511. +But where there is no statute on +the subject, the members of an unincorporated +parish are liable for lawful debts +contracted or ratified by them, and their +property may be levied on for such debts + +incurred or judgments rendered while they +are members of the society.Chick v. Trevett, 20 Me., 462; Allen v. M. E. Church, +127 Ia., 96; 102 N. W., 808; 69 L. R. A., 255. The members +of an unincorporated parish may be sued to +recover the salary of a deceased pastor up +to the time of his death.Sheehy v. Blake, 72 Wis., 411; 39 N. W., 479; 9 L. R. +A., 564. +

+ +

+118. Execution, Property.—While an +execution against a territorial parish may +be levied on the property of a member of +the parish, it can not be levied on property +of a person who ceased to be a member before +the levy.Chase v. Merrimac, 34 Mass., 564; Bigelow v. Congregation, +15 Vt., 370. +

+ +

+119. Incorporated, Subscriptions.—The +members of an incorporated poll parish are +not individually liable on a judgment and +execution against the corporation, excepting +on the unpaid subscriptions.Richardson v. Butterfield, 60 Mass., 191. +

+ +

+120. Expelled, Merits.—Mandamus can +not be resorted to to restore a member regularly +expelled from his church, as a court +will not inquire into the merits of the case.State v. Hebrew, 31 La. Ann., 205; 33 Am. Rep., 217; +Grosvenor v. United States, 118 Mass., 78; Watson v. Garbin, +54 Mo., 358. +

+ +

+121. Lay Members, Appointed.—Where +the statute provides that two lay members +of the corporation of a Catholic parish shall + +be appointed annually by the committee of +the congregation, the members of the congregation +have no right to elect said two +members, and those appointed in the proper +manner are lawful officers.State v. Getty, 69 Conn., 286; 37 At., 188. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter X. Heresy And Secession + +

+122. Mother Church, Control.—A majority +of the members of a congregation +can not by their vote leave the church and +transfer the property of the congregation +to another church so long as any portion of +the congregation remains faithful to the +mother church of which such congregation +forms a part. Such minority shall retain +control of the property.Free Church of Scotland v. Overton, Appeal Cases, +House of Lords, 1904; Fuchs v. Meisel, 102 Mich., 357; +32 L. R. A., 92; 60 N. W., 773. +

+ +

+123. Seceders, Funds.—Nor can seceders +from a religious denomination retain the +funds in their hands as trustees on the +ground that they were members of the +society when the funds accrued.Methodist v. Wood, 5 Ohio, 12. The title +to church property in a divided congregation +is in that part of the congregation +which is acting in harmony with its own +law; and the ecclesiastical laws and principles +which were accepted among them before +the dispute began are the standards for +determining which party is right.McGinnis v. Watson, 41 Pa. St., 9. +

+ + + +

+124. Society, Foreign Language, Independent.—The +formation of a society distinct +from the rest of the congregation for +the purpose of instruction in a portion of the +doctrine of the same church in a foreign language +is not a separation from the congregation, +although it has its own minister and +officers.German v. Seibert, 3 Pa. St., 282. Where an independent congregation +of one denomination votes unanimously +to go over to another denomination, and the +title to the church property is in the parish +corporation, the seceders take with them the +church property.Sutter v. First, 42 Pa. St., 503. +

+ +

+125. Subordinate, Incorporated.—A religious +society subordinate to church judicatures, +which declares itself independent and +becomes incorporated under the general law +of the state and subsequently purchases +land and takes title in the name of the corporation, +holds such land independently of +such church judicatures.Miller v. Gable, 2 Den., N. Y., 492; Eis v. Croze, 149 +Mich., 62; 112 N. W., 943; Dressen v. Brameier, 56 Ia., +756; 9 N. W., 193; Amish v. Gelhaus, 71 Ia., 170; 32 N. +W., 318. +

+ +

+126. Church, Seceders, Debt.—Where +a religious society amended its constitution +as provided therein, those who adhered to +the amended constitution constituted the +church, and those who refused to do so + +were seceders.Lamm v. Cain, 129 Ind., 486; 14 L. R. A., 518. After seceding, a member +of a parish is liable for a debt existing at the +time of his secession.Fernald v. Lewis, 6 Me., 264. +

+ +

+127. Bible, Constitution, Withdrawal.—A +religious organization that takes the +Bible as its constitution can not declare a +member a seceder who interprets it contrary +to the Augsburg Confession of the denomination.Trustees v. Henschell, 48 Minn., 494; 51 N. W., 477. +What amounts to a voluntary +withdrawal of members from a religious association, +is a question of law.Perry v. Tupper, 74 N. C., 722. +

+ +

+128. Majority, Obligation.—The fact +that a majority of the members of a religious +corporation secede therefrom by a vote, +does not affect its obligation entered into +prior thereto.Wanner v. Emanuel, 174 Pa., 466. Two factions of a church +separating and keeping up different organizations +may both still retain their membership +in the denomination.West v. Ottesen, 80 Wis., 62; 49 N. W., 24. +

+ +

+129. Division, Funds.—Where there is +a division in a denomination by the secession +of a part of the members from the mother +church, the Legislature has no authority to +divide the funds and give a part to the seceding +division.Second v. First, 23 Conn., 255. +

+ + + +

+130. Methodist, Slaveholding, Non-Slaveholding, +Quarrel, Schism, Secession.—The +division of the Methodist church into +distinct organizations of slaveholding and +non-slaveholding States, was not a secession +and neither division lost its interest in the +common property.Smith v. Swormstedt, 57 U. S., 288; 14 L. Ed., 942. A quarrel in a congregation +growing out of an illegal election +followed by the majority excluding the +minority from the church, is not a schism, +and is no ground for a division of the church +property.Nelson v. Benson, 69 Ill., 27; Brown v. Porter, 10 +Mass., 93. The secession of a whole congregation +does not carry with it the church +property; and those who are left and adhere +to the mother church retain control of the +property.Page v. Crosby, 41 Mass., 211. When the seceders from one +church join another, they forfeit all claim to +any interest held by the former and lose +identity with it.Harper v. Straws, 53 Ky., 48; Hale v. Everett, 53 N. +H., 9; Wiswell v. First, 14 Ohio St., 31; Reorganized v. +Church, 60 Fed., 937; 32 L. R. A., 838; Fernstler v. Seibert, +114 Pa., 196; 6 At., 165. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XI. Excommunication + +

+131. Definitions, Minor.—Excommunication, +as construed in law, is the official announcement +by the superior authority of the +termination of membership in a religious +body and the forfeiture of spiritual privileges +of the church. It is one of the methods +of discipline in the nature of expulsion from +membership in a fraternity, and the fact of +expulsion from a church is conclusive proof +that the person expelled is not a member of +such church. Whether the excommunication +was wrong or not can not be examined +into in the courts of the State, and such expelled +member can not maintain a suit in +relation to church property nor vote for +trustees.Shannon v. First, 42 Ky., 253. +

+ +

+132. Major Excommunication.—As excommunication +non tolerati affects the rights +of citizenship, it is not lawful in England +nor the United States. To say that A. has +been excommunicated in any form, if untrue, +is slander.Servatius v. Pichel, 34 Wis., 292; McGrath v. Finn, 16 +Alb. L. J., 186; Morasse v. Borchee, 151 Mass., 567; 25 +N. E., 74. +

+ + + +

+133. Vote, Sentence.—When a vote of +excommunication from a church has been +passed in the Congregational church and the +offender thereby declared no longer a member, +the sentence may be promulgated by +being read in the presence of the congregation +by the pastor.Farnsworth v. Storrs, 59 Mass., 412. +

+ +

+ +134. Trustees, Disqualified.—The trustees +of a church who have been excommunicated +are not thereby disqualified in law to +act as trustees.Bowldin v. Alexander, 15 Wall., 131; 21 L. Ed., 69; +Ante, sec. 116, post 156. +

+ +

+135. Devise, Void.—A parent may leave +money to a child payable in yearly instalments +on condition that said child shall continue +to be a member of a particular church +and attend the regular meetings thereof, and +in case he fail so to do that the bequest be +thereupon paid to a missionary society. +Such a devise is not contrary to the constitution +of the State of Wisconsin and is not +void for any other reason.In re Paulson's will, 127 Wis., 612; 107 N. W., 484. +

+ +

+136. Fraternity, Excommunicated, Bequest.—Where +a church member was also a +member of an insurance fraternity connected +with his church, the constitution of +which required that every member of the +fraternity should be and remain a practical + +Roman Catholic, when he was excommunicated +from membership in the church he +thereby forfeited his benefit certificate in +such fraternity.Barry v. C. K. of W., 119 Wis., 362; 96 N. W., 797. Also, a condition that a +bequest shall be forfeited if the legatee +should not marry a Protestant wife, the +daughter of Protestant parents who have +always been Protestants, was held to be +valid and not an infringement of any constitutional +right.In re Knox, 25 Ch. Div., 542. +

+ +

+137. Action, Expulsion.—An action can +not be maintained against the parish corporation +for expulsion from the church.Harden v. Baptist, 51 Mich., 137; 16 N. W., 311. +

+ +

+138. Forfeiture of Membership.—Any +member may forfeit his membership in a +church.Taylor v. Edison, 58 Mass., 522; Gray v. Christian, 137 +Mass., 329. +

+ +

+139. Insubordination, Expulsion, Hearing.—The +authorities in the church, under +its rules and discipline, have a right to exclude +members in the church, for insubordination.Fulbright v. Higgenbotham, 133 Mo., 668; 34 S. W., 875. +If the church has no rules as to +expulsion of members, the common law prevails, +and a member can not be expelled +without due notice and fair hearing.Jones v. State, 28 Neb., 495; 44 N. W., 658; 7 L. R. +A., 325. +

+ + + +

+140. Injunction, Mandamus, Sepulture.—An +injunction will not be granted to prevent +the expulsion of a member contrary to +the charter and by-laws of the denomination; +but if a member be expelled without +warrant of law, he has his remedy by mandamus +for reinstatement.Hamel v. German, 1 Weekly Note Cases, 411. A person who +has been expelled can not maintain an action +for restoration in order to enjoy the right +of sepulture, as it is premature.State v. Hebrew, 31 La. Ann., 205; 33 Am. Rep., 217. +

+ +

+141. Expulsion, Illegal.—The attempt of +a minority of a church to expel the majority +of the members and turn over the property +to another denomination is illegal. However, +the same would be true if it were done +by the majority.Deadrick v. Lampson, 58 Tenn., 523. +

+ +

+142. Freedom, Faith, Doctrine.—The +constitution in declaring the freedom of all +men to worship God according to the dictates +of their own consciences, does not give +a church member the right to repudiate the +faith and doctrine on which the church was +founded, and at the same time to insist on +his right to exercise and enjoy the benefits +and privileges of a member of such church.Smith v. Pedigo, 145 Ind., 361; 32 L. R. A., 838. +Every person joining a church, impliedly, if +not expressly, agrees to conform to its rules + +and to submit to its authority and discipline.Lucas v. Case, 9 Bush, Ky., 297. +A person who has been expelled +from a religious society can not maintain an +action for services rendered the society +while he was a member.Grosvenor v. U. S., 118 Mass., 78. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XII. Elections + +

+143. Time, Place, Void.—Where a religious +society that is incorporated holds an +election for trustees, which is held at the +wrong time or place, the election is void.Miller v. English, 21 N. J. L., 317; 10 Cyc, 320-328; +Rules of Order, Scanlan, 17. +

+ +

+144. Voting, Communicants, Attendance.—A +by-law of a church that prohibited +any person whose pew rent was in arrears +more than two years from voting at a church +meeting, is valid and reasonable.State v. Crowell, 9 N. J. L., 391; Commonwealth v. +Cain, 5 Ser. & R., Pa., 510. Where a +charter of a religious society allowed only +members being communicants to vote after +they had attained the age of eighteen years, +to entitle a member of the congregation to +vote it was necessary that he should have +taken the sacraments after the age of +eighteen years.Wegerle v. Geyer, 11 Ser. & R., Pa., 35. Where the right to vote +was limited to members who contributed not +less than ten shillings annually toward the +support of the church, those who were challenged +for want of complying with the rule + +can not do so after being challenged and +then vote.Juker v. Commonwealth, 20 Pa. St., 484; St. Luke's v. +Matthews, 4 Desau, S. C., 578; State v. Crowell, 9 N. J. +L., 391. Stated attendance at divine +worship in the church, congregation, or society, +and contribution to the support of such +church, may be made the tests of the right +of a person to be a voter at an election. The +attendance of a wife or children of the family +is not sufficient to confer the right to +vote on the husband or father.People v. Tuthill, 31 N. Y., 550. +

+ +

+145. Voters, Poll List.—Parol evidence +is admissible to prove the number of persons +entitled to vote in a church society, notwithstanding +that there is a register of +names of the stated hearers in such church +kept by the clerk of the trustees. +

+ +

+146. Notice, Quorum, Majority, Strangers.—It +is not necessary that a majority of +the members of a religious society be present +to constitute a corporate meeting. Those +present at a regularly called meeting of +which due notice has been given to all the +members, constitute a quorum; and, in the +absence of a rule to the contrary, a majority +of the votes cast carries any question.Rules of Order, Scanlan, 18, 20; 10 Cyc, 329. The +presence of strangers, unless they vote, will +not vitiate the proceedings. If they should + +vote, unless their votes determine the election, +it will not be void.Madison v. Baptist, 32 Howard's Pr., 335. The casting of a +few illegal votes that would not change the +result of the election does not make it void.People v. Tuthill, 31 N. Y., 550. +

+ +

+147. Challenge, Ground.—The right of +a person to vote at any meeting may be challenged. +The proper time to challenge a +voter is when he offers his vote. After his +vote has been received it can not be thrown +out on the ground that he was disqualified.Hart v. Harvey, 32 Barb., N. Y., 55. +A church election for which due notice has +been given, that has been fairly conducted, +and all the requirements of the statute or +rules of the church complied with, is conclusive.Alexander v. Bowers, 79 S. W., 342. +Without due notice, all proceedings +are void.Rules of Order, Scanlan, 18, 20, 23; People v. Peck, 11 +Wend., N. Y., 604. +

+ +

+148. By-Laws, Usage.—If there is no +law of a religious society determining the +mode of conducting an election, the corporation +may provide by-laws therefor; and +if the corporation should fail to make such +by-laws, a long established usage will govern.Rules of Order, Scanlan, 9; Gipson v. Morris, 83 S. +W., Tex., 226; McCrary's Am. L. of Elections, secs. 298-300. +Also, if the time an election is to be +held is provided for, but the manner of conducting + +it is not, the meeting may be conducted +according to established usage.Juker v. Commonwealth, 20 Pa., 484. +

+ +

+149. Ballot, Hand Vote.—The vote of a +religious society at an annual meeting for +the election of officers that the officers shall +always be chosen by ballot, does not vitiate +an election of officers by hand vote at a subsequent +annual meeting. But a provision in +the constitution or by-laws requiring a ballot +must be complied with.Rules of Order, Scanlan, 23-27; Wardens v. Pope, 8 +Gray, Mass., 140. +

+ +

+150. Hold Over, Successors.—When the +election of the new trustees is invalid, the old +trustees hold over until there will have been +a valid election of their successors.Den. v. Pilling, 24 N. J. L., 653. But +where a board that was illegally elected employed +a minister who had no notice of such +illegality, he was entitled to his compensation +according to the contract.Vestry v. Matthews, 4 Desau, S. C., 578. +

+ +

+151. Majority, Votes Cast.—Where the +majority of a congregation protested against +the proposed candidate, but failed to vote for +any one, such candidate who received the +greatest number of votes cast, was lawfully +elected.Cooley's Con. Lim., 619; McCrary's Am. L. of Elections, +sec. 197; Rules of Order, Scanlan, 24-27. +

+ + + +

+152. By-Law, Tickets.—When a by-law +provides that if besides the names there are +other things upon the tickets, such tickets +are not to be counted, a ballot having an +engraved eagle on it should be rejected.Commonwealth v. Woelper, 3 Ser. & R., Pa., 29. +However, in a very recent case under a +statute that specifically provided what should +be printed on the general election ballot, and +in addition thereto the Union Labor label +was printed thereon, the court held that +the statute should be strictly construed in +favor of the voter and that the ticket should +be counted.In re Peters, 112 N. Y. Sup., 339. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XIII. Officers + +

+153. Charter, By-Laws.—The articles of +organization or the charter which is the +constitution of the corporation may provide +who may be officers of a religious society and +limit their authority. The constitution usually +gives further authority to make by-laws +which are binding on the officers as well as +on the members.Gram v. Prussia, 36 N. Y., 161. +

+ +

+154. Unincorporated Church, Incorporated.—The +officers of an unincorporated +church can only be elected by the members +of the church, unless there is some law of +the State or rule of the church that provides +for appointing them. In an incorporated +congregation, the charter and by-laws of the +corporation determine whether the officers +shall be elected or appointed.Wall v. Johnson, 140 Ind., 445; 39 N. E., 251; Simmons +v. Allison, 118 N. C., 763. +

+ +

+155. Trustees, Control.—A statute +passed in 1813 providing that a certificate +of incorporation by the bishop, vicar-general, +pastor of the church, and two others + +selected by them and their successors shall +be a body corporate, does not constitute the +trustees the corporation in place of the congregation +so as to make the acts of a majority +of the trustees binding on the corporation +in the absence of proof of other authority.People v. St. Anthony, 109 N. Y., 512; 17 N. E., 408. +Under the statutes of Louisiana +providing for the incorporation of congregations +for the purpose of administration +and revenues, it was held that the corporation +had full control and was responsible to +the congregation alone and could not be controled +by the clergy. The congregation had +the right to elect others in the places of those +amoved by reason of their misuse or abuse +of their powers.Congregation v. Martin, 4 Rob., 62; Wardens v. Blanc, +8 Rob., 51; St. Andrew's Ch. v. Schaugnessy, 63 Neb., 792; +89 N. W., 261. And in Massachusetts, +under the law for incorporating Catholic +parishes, no one but the trustees have any +power.Enos v. Church, 187 Mass., 40; 72 N. E., 253. +

+ +

+156. Membership, Office.—Where church +membership is necessary to hold office in the +church corporation, it is a binding condition +precedent.Ross v. Crockett, 14 La. Ann., 811. An officer who withdraws or +is expelled from a religious organization +thereby terminates his office.Laight v. Noe, 12 Howard's Pr., 497; Contra: In re +Williams, 105 N. Y. S., 1105; Ante, 116, 134. +

+ + + +

+157. Certificate of Election.—A certificate +of election of officers is prima facie +evidence thereof, but the truth may be shown +aliunde and a wrong certificate may be cancelled +by a judgment of a competent court +on a writ of quo warranto or proceeding +under a statute of the State. Also, if the +certificate does not conform to the law, it is +insufficient.People v. Lacoste, 37 N. Y., 192; Fadness v. Braunberg, +73 Wis., 257; 41 N. W., 84; McCrary on Am. L. of +Elections, secs. 209, 264; 10 Cyc, 347; People v. Nappa, 89 +Mich., 232; 50 N. W., 846. +

+ +

+158. Term, Successors, Contest.—Where +there is no term of office fixed, the presumption +is that an officer continues as such until +proof to the contrary is established,Hendrickson v. Shotwell, 1 N. J. Eq., 577. or until +his successor shall have been elected and +shall have qualified.Congregation v. Sperry, 10 Conn., 200; 10 Cyc, 319. Also, the officers +elected for a certain term can not be amoved +by electing new officers before the end of +the term.Den. v. Pilling, 24 N. J. L., 653. When officers or committees +have been elected for the ensuing year, +they shall hold office until superseded by +their duly elected successors. Where two +sets of officers were elected at a meeting of +a religious corporation and the set that was +elected according to the charter continued +in office by appointment thereafter, it was + +too late for the irregularly elected officers to +make a contest for the offices after the term +for which they had been elected had expired.Smith v. Erb, 5 Gill., Md., 437. +

+ +

+159. By-Laws, Preside.—At an election +of trustees under by-laws that provide that +certain officers shall preside, if there are no +such officers members may be selected to +preside in their places.People v. Peck, 11 Wend., N. Y., 604. +

+ +

+160. Note, Overdraft, Interest.—The +president and secretary of a church corporation +have no authority to make a promissory +note unless authorized by the board of trustees.Catron v. First, 46 Ia., 106; People v. St. Anthony's, +109 N. Y., 512; 17 N. E., 408. +Neither has the treasurer authority +to make an overdraft on a bank with the +action of the trustees.Columbia v. Gospel, 127 N. Y., 361. The trustees of a +parish, however, may make a note binding +the congregation for the payment of the +money used in building a church.First v. Caughey, 85 Pa., 271. But +when the trustees have an interest in the +transaction, adverse to the congregation, +they are disqualified from acting.San Antonia v. Adams, 87 Tex., 125; 26 S. W., 1040; +Hill v. Rich, 119 Mo., 9; 24 S. W., 223. When +trustees had claims against the congregation +which they included with other claims that + +third parties had against the church, they +could not put them in a judgment note so as +to get a lien upon the church property. +When officers do not bind the congregation, +they usually bind themselves.Hewitt v. Wheeler, 22 Conn., 577; Devos v. Gray, 22 +Ohio, 159; Klopp v. Moore, 6 Kan., 27; Neil v. Spencer, +5 Ill. App., 461; United v. Vandusen, 37 Wis., 54. The trustees +of an unincorporated church can not +bind it beyond the expressed powers granted +by the members.Miller v. Church, 4 Phil., 48. +

+ +

+161. Board, Control.—When the laws of +the organization give control of matters to +the board of trustees, the majority of the +members of the church can not control the +action of the trustees contrary to the usages +and regulations of the church.Brunnenmeyer v. Buhre, 32 Ill., 183. +

+ +

+162. Treasurer, Accepting a Draft.—A +parish treasurer has no authority under any +condition to bind the corporation by accepting +a draft in favor of a third person. A +treasurer elected for the purpose of receiving +and investing funds in his individual +name, holds such funds as trustee for the +church and is subject as such trustee to a +court of equity. Persons claiming to be +trustees of a church but never getting possession +of their offices or the property of the +church, can not maintain an action against + +other persons who are in possession and +have been duly elected.N. Baptist v. Parker, 36 Barb., N. Y., 171. +

+ +

+163. Note, Trustees.—A church will not +be bound by a note which was executed by +two of its trustees and sent around to other +trustees to sign it, where there was no vote +of the board of trustees at an authorized +meeting to borrow or to execute such note.Dennison v. Austin, 15 Wis., 334. +A meeting of a board must be called as required +by law or the by-laws of the organization, +and in the absence of any such all +members must be notified a reasonable time +before the time fixed for holding the meeting. +However, if all the trustees are present +and agree to hold a meeting it is valid; +but it would be well to put such consent in +writing and have all the members sign it.United v. Vandusen, 37 Wis., 54; MacLaury v. Hart, +121 N. Y., 636; 24 N. E., 1013. +

+ +

+164. Money, Powers.—The treasurer of +a congregation has no right to return to +members moving out of the parish a part of +the money paid for the church by them.Vestry v. Barksdale, 1 Strobb. Eq., S. C., 197. +Officers of a corporation have no powers +only those conferred upon them by the charter +and by-laws of the corporation or by a +majority vote of a duly called meeting of +the congregation.New v. Gress, 89 Ga., 125. When the trustees of a + +church are authorized to execute contracts +for the church, they should act as a body or +delegate the power to one of their number or +ratify the acts of one of their number.10 Cyc, 776-9; In re Denny, 156 Ind., 104; 59 N. E., +359; 51 L. R. A., 722. The +individual disjointed action of trustees of a +religious society, at various times and places, +although assented to by a majority, is not +the action of the board, and is not binding +on the society. To make the action of +the board of trustees binding, they must +duly meet and by a vote determine their +action.Rules of Order, Scanlan, 21; U. S. v. Balm, 144 U. S., +1; 12 Sup. Ct. R., 507; 36 L. Ed., 321; The Catholic Cyclopedia, +vol. i, 289. +

+ +

+165. De Facto Officers.—The acts of de +facto officers can not usually be questioned +in a collateral proceeding, such as to set +aside a conveyance, when the merits of the +question do not involve the election.Cicotte v. Anciaux, 53 Mich., 227; 18 N. W., 793. Being +elected does not alone make a person a de +facto officer; but he must also be acting in +the particular office to which he claims to +have been elected.Trustees v. Halverson, 42 Minn., 503; 44 N. W., 663. But one who has +entered into a contract with the officers of a +congregation is estopped from denying their +authority to make such contract.Skinner v. Richardson, 76 Wis., 464; 45 N. W., 318; +Dennison v. Auston, 15 Wis., 334. +

+ + + +

+166. Trustees, Thanks, Charge.—Where +trustees have taken care of funds without +charge, the only entry kept being a vote of +thanks from time to time, they could not +afterward charge a commission on the +moneys handled by them for such services.Vestry v. Barksdale, 1 Strobb. S. C. Eq., 197. +

+ +

+167. Discretion, Excommunication.—A +court has no authority to control the exercise +of the judgment or discretion of the +officers of a church in the management of its +funds so long as they do not violate its constitution +or by-laws.State v. Ahnapee, 99 Wis., 322; 74 N. W., 783. Excommunication +does not always remove an officer of a church +corporation.Bowldin v. Alexander, 82 U. S., 131; 21 L. Ed., 69; +The Catholic Cyclopedia, vol. iii, 755, 756. The legal rights of a bishop +in regard to the temporalities of a church +where they are not prescribed by civil law, +must rest, if at all, upon the ecclesiastical +law, which must be determined by evidence.Leahy v. Williams, 141 Mass., 345; 6 N. E., 78. +

+ +

+168. Key, Possession, Right.—Having +the key of a church, is prima facie evidence +of possession, but the right of possession is +a matter of proof.People v. Runkel, 8 Johnson, N. Y., 464. +

+ +

+169. Church, Bishop, Debts, Salary of a +Priest.—Where a church is not itself liable +because it is not incorporated, the Roman +Catholic bishop of the diocese is not personally + +liable for moneys borrowed by the pastors +of such church in the name of the +church, which were partly invested in real +estate which was put in the bishop's name +in the usual manner, although the bishop's +permission was necessary before borrowing +the money, and notwithstanding that the +bishop raised some of the money to pay some +of the debts and the mortgage on the real +estate of the church on his personal security, +and he received part of the borrowed funds +from a dying pastor and handed it over to +his successor.Leahy v. Williams, 141 Mass., 345. Also, a bishop is not personally +liable for the salary of a priest whom +he engages. They are fellow servants +working for the Church and not in the relation +of employer and employee any more +than are a general and captain in the same +army.Rose v. Vertin, 46 Mich., 457; 9 N. W., 491; Tuigg v. +Sheehan, 101 Pa., 363. +

+ +

+170. Note, Building Committee.—In an +action on a note given by the pastor of a +church for money borrowed to pay bills for +the erection of the church building, in which +the plaintiff sought to charge the building +committee, and it appeared from the plaintiff's +testimony that the title to the property +was in the bishop and the committee did not +handle any of the funds, but was a shifting + +body to whom the pastor only went for +advice and consultation, it was held that the +plaintiff could not recover.Freeport v. Egan, 146 Pa., 106; 23 At., 390. +

+ +

+171. Fraud, Trust.—Where a prophet +induced members of his organization, by his +fraud and deceit, to convey to him all their +property in discharge of a religious duty and +then refused to account to them, the court +declared the trust closed and divided the +estate among the members in proportion to +the money, property, and labor contributed +by each of them.Scott v. Thompson, 21 Ia., 599. +

+ +

+172. Superioress, Money.—A person +who contributed money for the purpose of +repairing a convent, the money being turned +over to the superioress and the convent not +being incorporated, upon the project being +abandoned subsequently a personal judgment +could not be obtained against the +superioress for the money contributed.Emonds v. Termehr, 60 Ia., 92; 14 N. W., 197. +

+ +

+173. Loan, Priest.—If a man lends +money to a priest for the purpose of paying +a note against the congregation left at the +bank for collection, he can recover the +money so paid from the congregation.Wojcienchowski v. Johnknowski, 16 Pa. Sup. Ct., 444. +

+ +

+174. Warden, Wages, Sexton.—A +church warden who was hired by the trustees + +of a church can not collect his wages +by an action against the priest of the parish.Chiniqui v. Delaire, 37 Ill., 237. +A church accepting the services of a +sexton is liable to him therefor, whether +the by-laws were observed in employing him +or not; nor will the fact that any party (as +in this case the Ladies of the Altar Society) +agreed to contribute to his annual salary, +defeat his recovery of the whole from the +church employing him.St. Patrick's v. Abst., 76 Ill., 252. +

+ +

+175. Sewing Circle, Money.—A church +may maintain an action against a sewing +circle to require it to pay over money collected +for the benefit of the church.First v. Prior, 23 Hun., 271. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XIV. Meetings + +

+176. Business, Notice, Meeting.—Where, +in the transaction of the local business of a +religious society, whether incorporated or +not, meetings of the members shall become +necessary, in order to make such meetings +legal due notice thereof should be given to +every member. The notice should specify +the exact time and place where the meeting +will be held, and no change can be made +except at such time and place. Unless some +other place is specified, the parish church is +the proper place for holding meetings. If +the church should be locked and the key can +not be found, a meeting should be held at +the door or at the nearest practical place to +the church where all the members may assemble, +and then by a majority vote they +may adjourn to any convenient near place +accessible to all the members.Den. v. Pilling, 24 N. J. L., 653; Rules of Order, Scanlan, +15-18. +

+ +

+177. Acts, Void, Lawful, Clerk.—The +acts of a majority of the members of a corporation, +unless done according to law and + +in conformity with the charter and by-laws +of the corporation, are absolutely null and +void.German v. Pressler, 17 La. Ann., 127. The only lawful manner by which a +congregation can express itself, is by a +meeting regularly called and held upon due +notice.Appeal of McAuley, 77 Pa., 397. The notice of a meeting should be +authorized by the trustees or other authority +of the church, and given to all the members. +The clerk of the board of trustees, unless +authorized to do so, has no authority to sign +the name of the members of the board to a +notice, and a meeting called in that way is +illegal.Bethany v. Sperry, 10 Conn., 200. +

+ +

+178. Special Meeting, Notice.—When a +meeting is special, the notice must state for +what purpose the meeting is called. If it +fails to do so it is void, and unless all the +members are present and consent to the +holding of the meeting, all business transacted +is illegal and void.Weber v. Zimmermann, 22 Md., 156. Notice of a special +meeting that states one specific purpose for +which it is called, and then states to transact +any other business that may legally come +before the meeting, is not good for any +purpose except the one specified.Downs v. Bowdoin, 149 Mass., 135; 21 N. E., 294. +

+ + + +

+179. Meeting, Consent.—A valid meeting +can not be held by a corporation, unless +notice has been given in conformity with the +laws and rules and regulations of the corporation +or the consent of every person who is +entitled to be present at the holding of such +meeting. In the latter case the consent +should be in writing and signed by all the +members.Smith v. Erb., 4 Gill., Md., 437. However, a person who attends +a meeting and takes part in it without objection, +is estopped from raising the question +of notice.Helbig v. Rosenberg, 86 Ia., 159; 53 N. W., 111. +

+ +

+180. Notice, Principal Service, Custom.—When +a rule of a church required notice +of a meeting to be given at the principal +service, a notice given at an earlier service +only, was void.Dahl v. Palache, 68 Cal., 248. But where the ordinances +of a church specified that the election of officers +should be at least six days before the +end of their term, and it became the custom +of the church to hold the election on a movable +holiday which sometimes was less than +six days, the election was held valid.People v. Runkel, 9 Johnson, 147. +

+ +

+181. Adjournment.—Where a meeting +was noticed for one day and held on a different +day without notice of adjournment, +all acts done were void and the officers + +elected were neither de jure nor de facto +officers.First v. Hillary, 51 Cal., 155. +

+ +

+182. Proof of the Notice.—The proper +proof of the notice would be the return of +the officer serving the notice, in some States; +and in others an affidavit of the person who +served the notice. The proof of the services +of a summons would be sufficient unless there +is some other law or rule to the contrary.Tuttle v. Cary, 7 Me., 426. +

+ +

+183. Presiding Officer.—When the laws +of the organization provide who shall preside +at a meeting, but the minister contrary +to such laws and against objections presided +over the majority of the congregation, and +the minority was presided over by the proper +person, and both elected officers, the officers +elected by the minority were the lawful +ones.State v. Steward, 6 Houst., Del., 9. However, where a meeting is presided +over without objection by a member +instead of the proper officer, the acts of the +body are lawful.Jones v. Cary, 6 Me., 448; Rules of Order, Scanlan, +29-30. +

+ +

+184. Voters, Rules.—Unless the laws of +the State otherwise provide, every religious +organization has the right to determine who +shall vote at its meetings and elections. If +those provisions are reasonable, they are + +lawful. Under such provisions it has been +repeatedly held that where there are rules +requiring annual subscriptions to the +church,State v. Steward, 6 Houst., Del., 359. only those who rented and paid for +pews, or those who paid a certain annual +tax, or those who went to communion, were +entitled to vote.Juker v. Commonwealth, 20 Pa., 484; McIlvain v. +Christ's Church, 8 Phil., 507. And where there was no +rule, it was held that one who has not contributed +to the churchLivingston v. Trinity Church, 45 N. J. L., 230. and persons who +attended church only occasionally and contributed +only when they attended, were not +qualified voters.People v. Tuthill, 31 N. Y., 550. In the last case it was +stated that a qualified voter is one who has +attended regularly during the year and has +contributed to the support of the church. +

+ +

+185. Quorum, Majority.—A quorum of +a congregation usually consists of those +present at a duly called regular meeting, and +a majority of those present is sufficient to +carry questions, unless by rule or law otherwise +provided.Madison v. Baptist, 46 N. Y., 131. But where there is a definite +body in a corporation which has established +no other rule, a majority of the members +of the corporation constitute a +quorum.Moore v. St. Thomas' Church, 4 Abb., N. Y., 51. Where the minutes of the clerk + +stated that upon due notice the members of +the corporation met, a quorum is presumed.Commonwealth v. Woelper, 3 Ser. & R., 29. +

+ +

+186. Votes, Challenge, Inspectors, Casting +Vote.—The reception of illegal votes +does not invalidate an election unless they +change the result.Wardens v. Pope, 74 Mass., 140. If the presiding officer +refuses to allow a qualified voter to vote, the +right may be enforced through civil courts.Oakes v. Hill, 6 Weekly Notes, Cas., 346. +When votes have been received without +challenge, it is then too late to raise the objection +that the persons have no right to +vote.Hartt v. Harvey, 32 Barb., 55. It is the duty of the inspectors to +determine the qualifications of an elector at +the time that he offers to vote, and before he +votes; and if they decide in the exercise of +their judgment, without malice or improper +motives, the regularity of the election can +not be questioned.Weckerly v. Geyer, 11 Ser. & R., 35. When a rule allows the +presiding officer to vote and another rule +states that he shall have the casting vote in +case of a tie vote, he still had the right to +cast the decisive vote.People v. Church, 48 Barb., 603. Illegal voting in a +religious society probably is not an indictable +offense, but it is a disorderly act.Allen v. Gray, 11 Conn., 95. +

+ + + +

+187. Written Notice, Prayer Meeting.—Where +a five days' written notice is required +to hold church meetings, an oral notice given +on Sunday evening at the prayer meeting is +not sufficient for a meeting on the following +Wednesday. But a vote taken on Sunday to +hire the minister and fix his salary, is not +void.Arthur v. Norfield, 49 At., 241; 73 Conn., 718. Churches and benefit societies, such +as insurance fraternities, being charitable +organizations, may do business concerning +such association on Sunday.Pepin v. Societies, 23 R. I., 81; 60 L. R. A., 626. +

+ +

+188. Expulsion, Damages.—A man who +has been wrongfully expelled from a temperance +society for religious reasons may +recover damages therefor.Lahiff v. St. Joseph's T. A. B. S., 76 Conn., 648; 65 L. +R. A., 92. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XV. Church Records + +

+189. Evidence, Entries, Minutes.—The +record of the proceedings of a religious society +is evidence as to its doings, both in its +own tribunals and the courts of the State. +Such record consists of entries required to +be made by the laws or rules of the society, +the laws of the State, and the minutes +adopted by the society. Therefore, it is of +the greatest importance that it be kept with +great exactness, omitting nothing that is +important.10 Cyc, 1067. Also, the minutes of all the +meetings should be correct before being duly +adopted. All erasures and interlineations +should be certified by the clerk and then +signed by him. +

+ +

+190. Uniformity.—Every entry required +to be kept by the laws of the State as well +as the rules of the Church, should be kept as +to births, marriages, and death. Every diocese +should have uniform record books in all +parishes and every pastor should keep blanks +printed in the form of a page of the record +book, to issue certificates when required. +

+ + + +

+191. Marriage, Death, Baptism, Birth, +Church Records.—The church records duly +kept in accordance with the discipline of the +church, are admissible in evidence to prove +marriage, death, and baptism. Where the +record is incomplete, as giving the date of +baptism only, it is not admissible in proof of +date of birth. But if it gives the date of +birth, it is prima facie proof thereof.17 Cyc, 405; 2 Jones on Ev., secs. 522, 523; Conflict of +L., Wharton, vol. ii, sec. 761, pp. 1496-8; Collins v. German, +Am. M. I. Ass., 112 Mo. App., 209; 86 S. W., 891; +Layton v. Kraft, 98 N. Y., 996. +

+ +

+192. Certified Copies.—Under statutes, +certified copies of the record made by the +custodian thereof are admissible in evidence +in any case where the original would be admissible. +Also, one who had compared a +copy with the original record may testify to +the same. The rule, as given, substantially +prevails under statutes in the following +States: Alabama, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, +Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, +Minnesota, Missouri, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, +Rhode Island, and Wisconsin; and +also, in Ontario, Manitoba, and the Dominion +of Canada. +

+ +

+193. Rule of Admissibility.—A certified +copy of the record of a baptism taken from +a church register by the parish priest, when +admissible at the place where such record is + +kept, as in Ireland, is admissible to prove the +same fact in the State of Missouri.Collins v. German, 112 Mo. App., 209; Sandberg v. The +State, 113 Wis., 578; 89 N. W., 504. +

+ +

+194. Proper Record.—A book kept by a +minister, which contained a regular statement +in proper form of the admission of +members, choice of officers, and transaction +of business of the church, which was the +only book kept by the parish, is the proper +record of the church.Sawyer v. Baldwin, 11 Pickering, 492. +

+ +

+195. Name, Record.—The author would +like to emphasize the importance of correct +records. Frequently we find no Christian +name given in the records of birth, which +practically makes the record worthless. +When a child is born it is entitled to a name, +immediately, which should be given and be +correct. At least the first Christian name +should be correct; a mistake in a middle +name is not material. This is true of deeds +and records of all kinds, but practically of +births, deaths, and marriages.Finher v. Hanegen, 59 Ark., 151; 24 L. R. A., 543. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XVI. Church Tribunals + +

+196. Jurisdiction, Privileges.—It is usual +for every fraternity to have a tribunal of its +own for the trial of members who break its +laws or violate its discipline. Within their +jurisdiction, the laws of the State give such +tribunals great privileges and courts show +them great respect. The Freemasons, the +Knights of Columbus, etc., and most of the +churches, have such courts.Mt. Zion v. Whitmore, 83 Ia., 138; 49 N. W., 846; 13 +L. R. A., 198. +

+ +

+197. Trial, Property, Priest.—In most of +the States a court will not interfere with the +fair trial of a church tribunal. Neither will +the court entertain a controversy concerning +the title or right of possession of real or personal +property excepting at the instance of +some person claiming a right thereto derived +from or recognized by the law of the State +or of the United States.Bonacum v. Murphy, 65 Neb., 831; 98 N. W., 1030; 71 +Neb., 463; 102 N. W., 267; 104 ib., 180; Nance v. Busby, +91 Tenn., 303; 18 S. W., 874; 15 L. R. A., 801. But when the +bishop has deprived a subordinate priest of +his authority to officiate as such, he may + +enjoin the priest from making use of the +church property.Bonacum v. Harrington, 65 Neb., 831; 91 N. W., 886. +

+ +

+198. Doubt, Legal Rights.—The foregoing +rule has some doubt cast on it in Delaware +and Massachusetts. The investigation +of a dispute between members of a church +by a committee according to church regulations, +consented to by the parties, in which +both take part, can have no effect on their +legal rights. If the State law provides for +cases of the kind, it is superior and must be +submitted to. Also, an award or proceeding +of a committee is not evidence for or against +either party. However, any statement made, +or admissions of the parties, if not of a recognized +confidential nature, may be given in +evidence on the trial in a court of the State.Tubbs v. Lynch, 4 Harr., Del., 521. +The judgment of a mutual ecclesiastical +council legally convoked will not bind either +party rejecting it.Sterns v. Bedford, 21 Pickering, 114. +

+ +

+199. Bishop, Priest, Redress.—When a +bishop removes a priest in the regular way +according to the rules and discipline of his +church, the priest has no redress.O'Donovan v. Chatard, 97 Ind., 421. Also, +when a priest has submitted his case to the +church tribunal according to the discipline +of his church, he must abide by its decision, + +excepting where his civil rights or property +rights as a citizen are involved, when he may +appeal to the laws of the land.Baxter v. McDonald, 155 N. Y., 83; 49 N. E., 667. +

+ +

+200. Trial, Counsel.—The question +whether a minister on trial in a church tribunal +is entitled to be heard by counsel or +attorneys depends upon the laws of the +church, and it can not be said as a matter of +law that he is entitled to counsel.Gibbs v. Gilead, 38 Conn., 153. +

+ +

+201. Removal, Suspension, Trial.—In +the United States under the laws and discipline +of the Catholic Church a priest may +be removed from the charge of a congregation +at the pleasure of the bishop, without +trial; but he can not be suspended from his +priestly functions without specific accusation +and trial.Stack v. O'Hara, 98 Pa., 213. +

+ +

+202. Charges, Fair Trial, Hearsay Evidence.—When +a clergyman or officer is to be +removed or a member of the congregation is +to be excommunicated, it is necessary to +fully state the charges against him and give +him an opportunity for a fair trial according +to the laws and rules of the religious society +before rendering final judgment. All the +allegations of the complaint should be made +upon positive knowledge of the complainant + +or upon evidence that is admissible to prove +the case in court. Rumor or gossip, known +as mere hearsay evidence, is not sufficient to +base a charge against the character of any +one.29 Cyc, 204, and Religious Societies; Am. & Eng. Cyc. +of L., Religious Societies and Beneficial Societies; 2 +Benefit Societies & L. Insurance, Bacon, secs. 400a and +450a. +

+ +

+203. Trial, Testimony, Slander.—A +church judgment, where there has been a +full and fair trial or when members submit +to the church tribunal, and the judgment has +only been rebuke, censure, suspension, or excommunication, +is usually upheld by the +courts; and when the testimony given on +such trial is concerning immoral or scandalous +conduct or crime, if those taking part +act in good faith and within the scope of the +authority of the church, they are protected +by law and not liable to an action for damages +for libel or slander.Farnsworth v. Storrs, 59 Mass., 412. +

+ +

+204. Remedies, Secular Courts.—In +cases involving church doctrine and discipline +only, all remedies within the church +must be exhausted by a member before the +secular courts will interfere, if they will interfere +at all.Hatfield v. Delong, 24 Ind. App., 343; 51 L. R. A., 751; +Ryan v. Cudahy, 157 Ill., 108; 41 N. E., 760; 49 L. R. A., +353. +

+ + + +

+205. Notice, Waiver.—When the laws +of the church provide the tribunal and procedure, +if the person proceeded against +avoids the service of the notice or refuses to +submit to the court, the notice of trial required +to be served might thereby be considered +waived and the tribunal might proceed +with the trial in the absence of the accused.Sampsell v. Esher, 26 Weekly Law Bulletin, Ohio, 156. +

+ +

+206. Appeal, Decision, Limitation.—The +right to appeal from one court to another of +higher jurisdiction is generally recognized.Day v. Robinson, 12 N. J. L., 206. +If after trial in the lower tribunal of the +Church, an appeal is taken, the decision on +the appeal is binding upon the parties and +also upon the inferior tribunal.Diffendorf v. Reformed Church, 20 Johnson, N. Y., 12. In the +Anglican and some other churches, there is +no limitation as to time when offenses +against the discipline of the church may be +inquired into.Chase v. Cheney, 58 Ill., 509. +

+ +

+The Catholic Church has a limitation as +to prescriptive rights, to-wit: Three years +in case of movable property; ten years in +case of a right, or of immovable property, +inter praesentes; twenty years in the same +case, inter absentes.Catholic Dictionary, Addis & Arnold, Prescription. Also, there are limitations +in canonical cases, varying from one + +to twenty years.Legal Formulary, Baart, 462. There is no statute of +limitation on lawful debts. +

+ +

+207. Procedure, Judge, Juror, Witness.—If +there are no rules of procedure prescribed +by the church tribunal, the proper +practice is to follow the State courts; as, for +example, where the State law forbids an +officer of the court who has an interest in +the proceeding to sit as judge or juror, the +same would apply to the church tribunal, it +being the common law of the land. Also, in +States where a person who is interested in a +matter is not a competent witness, in the +absence of a different rule in the church, the +same rule would apply in the church +tribunal.Juker v. Commonwealth, 20 Pa. St., 484. +

+ +

+208. Catholic Discipline.—A church +member has no right to sue any one in holy +orders in the civil court without leave. That +is, a layman or priest should obtain leave of +the bishop to sue a priest. In some countries +it is ground for excommunication to violate +the rule. This rule is analogous to the general +rule that a sovereign state can not be +sued without its consent.Beers v. Arkansas, 20 How., U. S., 527; 15 L. Ed., 991. In this country, +where there is no ecclesiastical court recognized +in law, leave is rarely asked.See Benefit of the Clergy and Forum Ecclesiasticum, +in The Catholic Cyclopedia and in the Catholic Dictionary. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XVII. State Courts + +

+209. Decision, Ecclesiastical Matter.—The +decision of the highest tribunal of the +church on a purely ecclesiastical matter will +not be disturbed by civil courts unless it is in +open defiance and express violation of the +constitution of such body.Kuns v. Robinson, 154 Ill., 394; 40 N. E., 343; Brundage +v. Deardorf, 55 Fed., 839; Watson v. Jones, 80 U. S., 679; +20 L. Ed., 666; Bird v. St. Mark's, 62 Ia., 567; 17 N. W., +747; Perry v. Wheeler, 75 Ky., 541; Powers v. Bundy, 45 +Neb., 208; 63 N. W., 476; Connit v. Reformed, 54 N. Y., +551; Harrison v. Hoyle, 24 Ohio St., 254; Krecker v. +Shirey, 163 Pa., 534; 30 At., 540. +

+ +

+210. Right of Property, Civil Rights.—Where +there are several church tribunals +one above another, when the highest tribunal +having jurisdiction of the case has decided a +question as to the right of property, a civil +court will accept such decision of the church +tribunal as conclusive.Watson v. Jones, 80 U. S., 679; 20 L. Ed., 666. The courts give +way to the usages and regulations of the +church so far as they are not inconsistent +with the constitution and laws of the State.Prickett v. Wells, 117 Mo., 502; 24 S. W., 52; Pounder +v. Ash, 36 Neb., 564; 54 N. W., 847. +As far as civil rights are concerned, the + +statute of limitations may be pleaded even +where those rights are founded upon some +law or rule of the denomination.Atty-Gen. v. Fed., 69 Mass., 1. +

+ +

+211. Creed, Factions, Property, Management.—The +supreme court exercises no +ecclesiastical jurisdiction, but accepts what +the highest ecclesiastical authority in each +church promulgates as the faith and practice +of that church, and will not determine +for itself what that faith or creed is in order +to establish the rights of respective factions +in the church to the church property. But a +majority of a congregation that secedes +from the church and forms a new organization +can not claim any of the property.Mt. Helen v. Jones, 79 Miss., 488; 30 So., 714. The +civil courts will not interfere with church +management so far as concerns the spiritual +discipline of the members, but where civil +rights of property are involved, the courts +may determine them.Prickett v. Wells, 117 Mo., 502; 24 S. W., 52. The civil rights of a +religious society or its members are within +the jurisdiction of the State courts.Ferraria v. Vasconcellos, 31 Ill., 25. +

+ +

+212. Trust, Court of Equity.—A conveyance +in trust for the use of a church +vests the use in the church and it will be +protected by a court of equity.Garten v. Penick, 68 Ky., 110. +

+ + + +

+213. Injunction, Closing Church, Paying +Money, Disturbances.—A court of equity +will issue an injunction against the trustees +of a church from wrongfully closing it or +keeping it closed even against a small minority.Brunnenmeyer v. Buhre, 31 Ill., 183. +Church property vested in trustees of +a religious body is held under trust and a +court of equity has jurisdiction to enforce +the trust.Lawson v. Kolbenson, 61 Ill., 405. A court of equity may restrain +the trustees of a church from paying money +to a duly deposed minister.Robertson v. Bullions, 11 N. Y., 243. But a court of +equity will not interfere to quell religious +disturbances when no question as to property +or civil rights is involved. The board +of trustees of a church can not remove a +priest against the will of the congregation.Papalion v. Manusos, 113 Ill. App., 316. +

+ +

+214. Suits, Parties.—Where a number +of persons have contributed to the erection +of a church, it is not necessary for all who +contribute to join in an action to restrain a +sale of the property for mercantile purposes.Avery v. Baker, 27 Neb., 388; 43 N. W., 174. +Any member of a church not incorporated +may come into a court of equity in +behalf of himself and others and enforce the +execution of a trust in favor of the church.Trustees v. Trustees, 4 N. J. Eq., 77. +The same rule would apply to a church + +where any one in authority is violating the +law.Nash v. Sutton, 117 N. C., 231; 23 S. E., 178; Wiswell +v. First, 14 Ohio St., 31. If several congregations of a diocese +are interested in litigation, to hold all the +property of the diocese liable for the debt of +a parish, each congregation is entitled to be +made a party.Mannix v. Purcell, 46 Ohio St., 102. +

+ +

+215. Complaint.—A complaint that the +plaintiffs hold one doctrinal standard and the +defendants another is sufficiently definite +without explaining the difference between +the two.Baker v. Ducker, 79 Cal., 365; 21 Pac., 764. +

+ +

+216. Church Tribunal, Courts.—Courts +are reluctant to interfere in the church doctrine +or discipline or inquire into the regularity +of the proceedings of the church tribunal. +When such tribunal has deposed a +pastor or expelled a member, it is final. +However, in contracts, property rights, and +civil rights of a citizen, the courts take jurisdiction. +It is no defense to a pastor's expulsion +that there is salary due him.Morris v. Dart, 67 S. C., 338; 45 S. E., 753; 100 Am. +St. Rep., 734. +

+ +

+217. Unincorporated Congregation, Actions, +Interest.—An unincorporated congregation +may be sued on contract in its associate +capacity, though no persons are named + +as trustees or committeeman.Phipps v. Jones, 20 Pa., 260. In all actions +by or against a congregation the civil +courts will not permit suits to be brought by +complainants who have no interest either +legal or equitable in the temporalities of the +church.Dolan v. City, 4 Gill., 394. A suit against a society of Shakers +consisting of indefinite membership with +changing additions, withdrawals, and deaths, +whose property is held in common without +any individual interest, may properly be +brought in equity as the remedy at law would +be inadequate.Shakers v. Watson, 68 Fed., 730. +

+ +

+218. Blasphemy, Sabbath, Lord's Prayer, +Bible.—Christianity is a part of the common +law of the United States; it is on this +ground that blasphemy and violation of the +Sabbath are made criminal offenses and that +the Lord's Prayer and the Bible are used in +the schools.61 Cen. L. J., 49 and 55; 57 C. L. J., 201. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XVIII. Evidence + +

+219. Judicial Notice.—A church takes +judicial notice without proof of its own +rules, laws, and doctrines. Every other fact +should be proved according to the rules of +evidence of the church, and in the absence +of a church rule the following rules of the +courts of this country should prevail: +

+ +

+1. Nothing should be admitted in evidence +unless it directly proves or disproves +an evidentiary fact forming a link of a chain +of facts that will prove a fact in issue. +

+ +

+2. It is sufficient to prove the substance +of the issue, unless the exact word or thing +forms the issue. +

+ +

+3. The burden of proof is on the one +who asserts the fact, whether it is stated +affirmatively or negatively, and its proof is +necessary to his making a case. +

+ +

+4. The best evidence that the case in its +nature affords must be produced. +

+ +

+5. Mere hearsay evidence shall not be +allowed, excepting: +

+ + + +

+(a) Matters of public or general interest. +

+ +

+(b) Declaration against interest. +

+ +

+(c) Dying declarations. +

+ +

+(d) The testimony of witnesses since +dead or absent. +

+ +

+(e) Admissions. +

+ +

+(f) Confessions. +

+ +

+220. Competent Witness.—Everybody +who has the use of reason and understands +the import of an oath is a competent witness. +

+ +

+221. Confessions, Secret Societies.—At +common law, confessions were admissible; +but there is no case in the United States +since 1813 where the court has sent a priest +to jail for contempt for refusing to disclose +a confession, and no case in which a priest +disclosed a confession. Immediately after +a priest was committed for contempt for refusing +to divulge the secrets of the confessional, +in 1813, New York enacted the following +law: No minister of the gospel, or +priest of any denomination whatsoever, +shall be allowed to disclose any confession +made to him in his professional character, +in the course of discipline enjoined by the +rules or practice of such denomination. A +similar law has been adopted in the following +States and Territories: Alabama, Arizona, +California, Colorado, Idaho, Iowa, + +Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, +Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, Ohio, +New York, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Utah, +Washington, Wisconsin, Wyoming, and +Hawaii. The secrets of a secret society are +not privileged, and a member as a witness +must answer all relevant questions in court.Owens v. Frank, 7 Wyoming, 457; 53 Pac., 282; 47 +Cen. L. J., 221. +

+ +

+222. Privilege, Answer.—When a question +concerning a matter privileged is put, +the priest should say: I claim my privilege +as a clergyman and ask the court not to require +me to answer; Whatever he said +concerning the matter, was said to me in the +confessional as a priest; I talked with him +about the matter only in my professional +capacity as a priest and confessor; I did +not speak to him about the matter except +in my confidential capacity as priest; or a +similar statement that sets up the clergyman's +privilege without giving facts. A +clergyman should not say: He confessed +it to me, or He told it to me in confession, +or give any other answer that implies +what was said in confession, as jurors are +always watching for a hint of what was +said. Neither should the priest say, I refuse +to answer, without stating that he +refuses because of his privilege as a clergyman. + +The trial judge or the attorneys trying +the case may put proper questions to +determine whether the information was +given the witness in the confessional or in +his capacity as confessor.Evidence, Jones, vol. iii, p. 776. +

+ +

+223. Admissions, False Statements.—Admissions +or statements made to a clergyman +not in his capacity of confidential adviser +or in the course of discipline, are not +privileged.Gillooley v. State, 58 Ind., 182. Neither are false statements +made to a committee investigating charges; +but all statements made to such a committee +or an officer of the church, unless false and +made with malice, are privileged.Knight v. Lee, 80 Ind., 201. +

+ +

+224. Anonymous Letter, Clergyman.—Where +a priest received an anonymous letter +alleged to have been written by a defendant, +which he read to her, he was not +disqualified from testifying that she was +excited and that she stated she had no idea +how the fire started, and that the letter was +unknown to her, etc.Colbert v. State, 125 Wis., 423; 104 N. W., 61. The mere fact that a +communication is made to a clergyman does +not make it privileged. It is privileged only +when made in confidence of the relation and +under such circumstances as to imply that +it should forever remain a secret in the + +breast of the confidential adviser.Hills v. State, 61 Neb., 589; 85 N. W., 836. When +a matter is privileged, it is not left to the +witness whether or not he shall testify concerning +it; but he can not testify without +the consent of the other party.Bevins v. Kline, 21 Ind., 37. +

+ +

+225. Voire Dire.—Where a priest made +a preliminary examination of a woman to +ascertain her mental capacity to make a confession, +her answers in such preliminary +examination were admissible in a contest on +a will; but her confession was not admissible.In re Thomas, 54 Cal., 509. +

+ +

+226. England, Confession.—The rule is +now accorded priests in England, but was +not formerly. Where a priest turned a +watch over to its owner, the court ordered +him, under pain of contempt, to tell where +he got the watch.Rex. v. Hoy, 2 F. & F., 4. But in another case it +was held that a priest need not divulge the +confession of a defendant who was held for +crime.Rex. v. Griffen, 6 Cox, C. C., 219. +

+ +

+227. United States, Rules.—In the United +States courts, the rule prevails that such +confidential communications to a priest shall +not be divulged.Mutual v. Robinson, 19 U. S. App., 266; State v. Morgan, +196 Mo., 177; 95 S. W., 402. +

+ + + +

+228. Presumptions, Usage.—The usage +of a church or the laws of its organization +as a religious society, if they are to be considered +in deciding legal controversies, must +be proved as facts.Katzer v. City, 104 Wis., 16; 79 N. W., 745; 80 N. +W., 41. In the absence of +proof, it will be presumed that subordinate +bodies, as congregations, can not dissolve +their connection with the principal organization +without permission.Vasconcellos v. Ferraria, 27 Ill., 237. +

+ +

+229. Funeral Expenses.—Witnesses' +opinions as to the reasonable amount for +burial or as to the cost of a funeral being +reasonable, are not binding on a court or +jury. The station of a man, the property +that he leaves, the life that he has followed, +all should be considered by the court. The +whims and notions of societies and others +are of minor consideration. Those who +make funeral expenses that are not allowed +by the court must pay them.Foley v. Brocksmit, 119 Ia., 457; 93 N. W., 344; 97 Am. +St. R., 324; 60 L. R. A., 571; 18 Cyc, 437-9. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XIX. Contracts + +

+230. Business, Religious Service.—A +church organization has the legal right to +make any contract concerning its own +affairs that is not prohibited by its by-laws +or its charter, subject to all laws of legal +contracts in the business world. When the +consideration is a religious service duly performed, +there seems to be no objection to it. +Therefore, a minister may collect for +preaching a sermon, attending the sick, or +saying prayers, or performing any other +religious service. But an incorporated +church has no authority to enter into a contract +for an ulterior purpose, such as the +employment of a vessel for the purpose of +an excursion.Harriman v. First, 63 Ga., 186. +

+ +

+231. Incorporated Body.—The only way +a religious society that is incorporated can +make a contract is by a vote of the aggregate +body or of the board of trustees, or +through an agent authorized by a vote of +one body or the other.Methodist v. Sherman, 36 Wis., 404. +

+ + + +

+232. Mortgage, Deficiency Judgment.—Where +a mortgage had been foreclosed +against church property before the congregation +was incorporated, a deficiency judgment +can not be rendered against such +church corporation.St. Patrick's v. Daly, 116 Ill., 76; 4 N. E., 241. But where a congregation +was incorporated after a debt had +been incurred and took charge of the property, +it assumed the debt.Eager v. Inhabitants, 10 Mass., 430. +

+ +

+233. Building Contracts.—The taking +part in a meeting by voting and appointing +committees to make contracts will bind those +taking part in all contracts made in accordance +with the directions of such meeting. +In some States the individuals are held only +to the amount that each subscribes, but in +other States each individual is liable for the +entire debt.Barnes v. Perrine, 9 Barb., N. Y., 202; Sheehy v. Blake, +77 Wis., 394; 46 N. W., 537; 69 L. R. A., 255; Cutler v. +Thomas, 25 Vt., 13; Allen v. M. E. Church, 127 Ia., 96; +102 N. W., 808; 69 L. R. A., 255 Note. +

+ +

+234. Individual Promise, Subscriptions, +Signature.—An individual promise to give +a donation to charity, can not be enforced.9 Cyc, 331. +But subscriptions to build a church or other +charitable institution or to pay the salary of +a clergyman when signed by more than one +person, have been held binding in some + +cases on the disputed rule of a-promise-for-a-promise +consideration.45 Cent. Dig., 7. In the foregoing +cases the donor might revoke his subscription +or in case of his death his estate would +not be liable.45 Cent. Dig., 38. However, when expenses +have been made or steps taken in the carrying +out of the object of the subscriptions, +the general rule is that the subscriptions become +binding contracts.45 Cent. Dig., 14. If the object of +the subscriptions be abandoned or changed +without the consent of the subscriber, he is +thereby released. A promissory note given +for the subscription, unless negotiated for +value in due course of trade, does not change +the foregoing rules.45 Cent. Dig., 1-54; Am. & Eng. Ency. of Law, Subscriptions. Where many persons +subscribed to build a church and some of +them failed to pay, one who paid brought +an action on behalf of himself and others +and collected the unpaid subscriptions.Legal Maxims, Broom, 745; Hodges v. Nalty, 104 Wis., +464; 80 N. W., 726. +The defendant Nalty signed Nalty Family, +$1,000, but he was held personally liable.Hodges v. Nalty, 113 Wis., 557; 89 N. W., 535; Hodges +v. O'Brien, 113 Wis., 97; 88 N. W., 901. +

+ +

+235. Special Purpose, Suit.—When +money is subscribed for a special purpose, +as for rebuilding a church, it belongs to the + +church organization; and in a suit to recover +the money the action should be brought in +the name of the corporation, if incorporated, +and if not incorporated it should be brought +in the name of the interested party.Barnes v. Perine, 9 Bar., N. Y., 202. +

+ +

+236. Promise, Consideration.—A promise +made by the owner of land to a trustee +for the benefit of a religious society, that +he would convey the land to such society if +it would build a church thereon, is a good +and lawful consideration; and after work +was begun on the church, the contract was +enforceable in a court of equity.Macon v. Shepard, 2 Humphrey, Tenn., 335. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XX. Pews + +

+237. Sold, Rented.—Prior to the Reformation +pews were not sold nor rented and +every member had the right to sit wherever +he pleased in the body of the church. After +the Reformation, the ordinary or bishop was +granted the right of faculty to rent or sell +pews.O'Hear v. De Goesbriand, 33 Vt., 593; 80 Am. Dec., 662. +

+ +

+238. Incorporeal Hereditament.—The +English title in a pew is in the nature of a +right of way through another's land; it is +an incorporeal hereditament. In the absence +of express law, the title to pews in +this country is said to be in the nature of +real estate, and in fact not very different +from the English title.Bates v. Sperrell, 10 Mass., 323; Hodges v. Green, 28 +Vt., 358; Pres. v. Andrus, 21 N. J. L., 225. In some States the +title is made personal property by statute.Church v. Wells, 24 Pa., 249. +And in others the courts have inquired into +the law of the church and adjudged the +title accordingly.O'Hear v. De Goesbriand, 33 Vt., 593; 80 Am. Dec., 662. The general rule is that + +the owner of a pew simply has an easement.Proprietors v. Roswell, 66 Me., 400; Sohier v. Trinity, +109 Mass., 1; Aylward v. O'Brien, 160 Mass., 118; 35 N. +E., 313; 22 L. R. A., 206. +

+ +

+239. Catholic Church, Pew Rights.—In +the Catholic Church, by the canon law, the +ownership in or control over a pew is forbidden +to laymen. Notwithstanding that, if +the party holding the title violates the rule +of the church by giving a deed to the pew-holder, +the courts would probably sustain +his title.Aylward v. O'Brien, 160 Mass., 118; 35 N. E., 313; 22 +L. R. A., 206; O'Hear v. De Goesbriand, 33 Vt., 593; 80 +Am. Dec., 662. However, as the clergy can +neither rent nor sell pews without becoming +subject to the law of the land and the jurisdiction +of our courts, it is important to know +what the law of the State is. +

+ +

+240. Land, Use, Rent Pews.—Where +land was conveyed in trust to the bishop of +a diocese and his successors for the erection +of a church for the use of a congregation, +the right to rent pews vested under the deed +and laws of the Catholic Church in the +parish priest and not in the trustees afterward +elected, as the parish priest was the +agent of the bishop.Smith v. Bonhoff, 2 Mich., 115. +

+ +

+241. Trustees, Sale in Perpetuity.—Without +authority of law the trustees of a + +church can not make an absolute sale in perpetuity +of a pew without any reservation of +rent.Vorhees v. Presbyterian, 8 Barb., 135. The sale of a pew in a church will +be determined in a case according to the +particular facts.Price v. Lyon, 14 Conn., 280. +

+ +

+242. Pew, Right to Occupy, Conditions.—A +grant of a church pew in perpetuity +does not give the owner an absolute right +of property as a grant of land in fee; but +gives only a right to sit therein, although +he may maintain an action in court for protection +of his rights.Baptist v. Witherell, 3 Paige, N. Y., 296; 24 Am. Dec., +223. In Vermont a pewholder +has only the right to occupy his seat +during religious services and holds it subject +to the superior right of the society owning +the pew.Perrin v. Granger, 33 Vt., 101. A condition in the deed to +a pew that a holder about to leave the congregation +shall offer it to the society for a +certain price, is not invalid.French v. Old, 106 Mass., 479. Where a +pewholder held his pew by a certain agreement +and after the church had been remodeled +he bought a different pew, the conditions +attached to the first pew did not apply +to the last.Curry v. First, 2 Pittsburg, 105. Pews owned by the occupant +pass to the heirs as real estate instead of + +going to the executors as personal property +in States where the title is in the nature of +the title to real estate.Succession of Gambla, 23 La. Ann., 9. +

+ +

+243. Tax, Assessment.—A tax assessed +upon the pew of a religious corporation in +part for purposes not specifically named in +a deed of the pew, which alone gives the +power to make such an assessment and +which strictly defines and limits such power, +is invalid in toto.First v. Braydon, 91 Mass., 248. The right to make an +assessment on pews must be founded upon +law, else it can not be enforced.Downs v. Bowdoin, 149 Mass., 135; 21 N. E., 294. When a +congregation sells pews at auction rent free +for the purpose of building a church, it has +no power thereafter to assess the pews for +the salary of the minister.Trustees v. Quackenbush, 10 Johnson, 217. +

+ +

+244. Pewholders' Rights.—A pewholder +has the exclusive right to occupy his pew +when the house is used for the purpose for +which it was erected; but he can not convert +his pew to other purposes not contemplated.Kellogg v. Dickenson, 18 Vt., 266. +If he has paid his pew-rent according +to agreement, he is entitled to use +his pew on all occasions when the house is +occupied, even when it is open for purposes +different from those mentioned in the conveyance + +thereof; and he has the right to exclude +all others from his pew by fastening +the door or otherwise, and any one who +enters his pew knowing the facts, is a trespasser +and liable to an action for damages.Jackson v. Rounsville, 5 Metcalf, Mass., 127. +The owner of a pew has no right to put an +offensive covering thereon nor use his pew +in any way to the annoyance of the congregation +or not in keeping with the place and +conditions. By placing anything offensive +about his pew, he may be liable for maintaining +a nuisance, and such offensive thing +may be removed; but, as far as possible, it +must be removed without damaging the +pewholder's property.Murray v. Cargill, 32 Me., 517; Gay v. Baker, 17 Mass., +435; Shaw v. Beveridge, 3 Hill, N. Y., 26; Perrin v. +Granger, 33 Vt., 101. +

+ +

+245. Rebuilding, Remodeling.—An injunction +was granted on the bill of pewholders, +restraining the authorities of the +church from pulling it down, as they +were going to use the materials in the +erection of a new church on a different +site. On the answer, the injunction was +dissolved on the ground that if the complainants +had rights which would be violated, +there was a remedy at law and that +the nature and extent of the injury were +not such as called for the interposition of + +a court of equity by injunction.Vanhorn v. Tailmadge, 8 N. J. Eq., 108. Where +a parish abandons an old church and builds +a new one it does not become liable to any +pewholder for damages by reason thereof +unless it has acted wantonly or intentionally +to injure the pewholder.Fassett v. Boylston, 19 Pickering, Mass., 361. But when it becomes +necessary for the purpose of repairing +or remodeling a church, to destroy old pews, +a pew built by a member under contract with +the church can not be removed or destroyed +without compensation.Kimball v. Rowley, 24 Pickering, Mass., 347. Pew rights are +subject to the right of the parish to pull +down and rebuild a church either as a matter +of necessity or expediency, but in the +latter case the owner of a pew is entitled to +payment.Aylward v. O'Brien, 160 Mass., 118; 35 N. E., 313; 22 +L. R. A., 206; Van Houten v. Trustees, 17 N. J. Eq., 126. A pewholder has only the right +to occupy his pew during public worship, +and when the church has become so out of +repair that it can not be used for public worship, +the owner of a pew can recover only +nominal damages for injuries to his pew.Howard v. Stevens, 47 Vt., 262. +

+ +

+246. Selling Pew on Execution.—In an +action to recover the value of a pew sold at +auction, the merits of the case will be tried +according to the law of the land.Stoddard v. Vestry, 2 Gill. & J., Md., 227. It is + +doubtful whether a pew in a church can be +sold for private debts of the pewholder.City v. McIntyre, 8 Rob., La., 467. +It depends somewhat upon the title and +State law of exemptions.Sargent v. Pierce, 43 Mass., 80. To render an +attachment of a pew valid, it is not necessary +for the officer to come in sight of the +pew or even to enter the church.Perrin v. Leverett, 13 Mass., 128. +

+ +

+247. Members, Pew.—Members of the +congregation may be required to pay for a +pew or sitting in the church, and where a +priest ejected a member from the church because +he would not rent a pew, he was sustained +by the court.Crowley v. Miller, 19 N. Y. Weekly Dig., 262. +

+ +

+248. Free Church, Seats, Lease.—The +trustees of a free church may assign seats +and forcibly remove one from a seat without +authority.Sheldon v. Vail, 28 Hun., 354. Where a pew is real estate, +a pewholder may acquire the right to it by +prescription in the usual way.Price v. Lyons, 14 Conn., 280. Where +pews are not rented and the members support +the church by voluntary subscriptions, +they have equal right to the occupancy of +the pews. But where the church builds the +pews and rents them, a man paying rent for +a pew holds it under lease in the nature of +a lease to real estate. However, he does + +not obtain all the rights of a lessee of land, +and in many cases a rule of the church governs +the holding of pews, which will be +observed by the State courts.Perrin v. Granger, 33 Vt., 101. +

+ +

+249. Executors, Pew-Rent.—The executors +of a pew owner are not bound to pay +pew-rent accrued after the owner's death. +

+ +

+250. Voting, Pew-Rent, Arrears.—Where +a church is incorporated and by its charter +or the laws of the State it has authority to +make reasonable by-laws, a by-law which +prohibits any person from voting whose +pew-rent is in arrears for more than two +years, is valid.Commonwealth v. Cain, 5 Srg. & R., Pa., 510. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XXI. Property + +

+251. Unincorporated, Trustee.—The +question whether an unincorporated religious +society may take a gift or devise, is +determined by the law of domicile.In re Bullock, 6 Dem. Sur., 335; Heiss v. Murphy, 40 +Wis., 276; Ruth v. Oberbrunner, 40 Wis., 238. Generally +an unincorporated religious association +can not hold property in its assumed name, +but it must be held by conveyance in trust +to a trustee named.Ruth v. Oberbrunner, 40 Wis., 238; Goesele v. Bimeler, +55 U. S., 589; 14 L. Ed., 554; Van Houten v. Trustees, 17 +N. J. Eq., 126. +

+ +

+252. Charter, By-Laws.—When the +charter or by-laws of a church corporation +provide that they may be altered, such +changes may, after the execution and delivery +of a deed, immediately adhere to the +title.Winnepesaukee v. Gordon, 63 N. H., 505; 3 At., 426. +

+ +

+253. Suits, Corporation, Members.—Cases +may occur in which the corporation +in its corporate capacity, or the society in +its collective capacity, may be a plaintiff or +a defendant in a suit between it and one or + +more members of the religious society in +their individual capacity or in their collective +capacity, in a quasi-conspiracy or concerning +other torturous acts, or a collective +contract.Bethel v. Carmack, 2 Md., Ch., 143; Tartar v. Gibbs, +24 Md., 323. +

+ +

+254. Deed, Court, Title.—A deed made +in pursuance of an order of a court having +jurisdiction passes good title.Lynch v. Pfeiffer, 110 N. Y., 33; 17 N. E., 402. +

+ +

+255. Subscription, Lots.—Any one may +convey title to a church as his part of the +subscription by merely marking it on a plat +made by him, as lots donated to such +church.Enos v. Chestnut, 88 Ill., 590. +

+ +

+256. Misnomer, Identity.—The misnomer +of a religious society or corporation +will not invalidate a mortgage where the +identity of the society can be clearly shown.Walwrath v. Camel, 28 Mich., 111. +

+ +

+257. Adverse Possession, Color of Title.—A +religious corporation may obtain title +to land by adverse possession. The length +of such possession is determined by the laws +of the State, the usual period being twenty +years.Harpending v. Reformed, 41 U. S., 455; 10 L. Ed., 1029. Unless the laws of the State require +it, color of title at the time of asserting adverse +possession need not be shown.Inhabitants v. Catholics, 40 Mass., 139; People v. Trinity, +22 N. Y., 44. +

+ + + +

+258. Sale, Restrictions.—In some States +when not restricted by the laws of the organization +the parish corporation may sell +the premises in order to pay the church +debts. However, it is not a common law +right.Lynch v. Pfeiffer, 110 N. Y., 33; 17 N. E., 402; Eggleston +v. Doolittle, 33 Conn., 396. +

+ +

+259. Deed.—A deed to The Evangelical +Order of Christians was sufficiently +definite for a valid conveyance.Tomlin v. Blunt, 31 Ill. App., 234. +

+ +

+260. Error.—A clerical error in the +name of the grantee will not make a deed +void. However, when such error has been +discovered, it should be corrected.Centenary v. Parker, 43 N. J. Eq., 307; 12 At., 142. +

+ +

+261. Mortgage, Bishop, Debts.—The +archbishop of a church to which property +is bequeathed, can not mortgage it without +authority from the church or under the +law.Levasseur v. Martin, 11 La. Ann., 684. Also, the bishop of a diocese to +whom land had been conveyed in trust for +a particular congregation, could not execute +a valid mortgage thereon to secure his own +indebtedness.O'Donnell v. Holden, 21 Weekly Law Bulletin, 254. But a religious society in +the absence of prohibitionary legislation, +has power to mortgage its property to secure +its debts.Walwrath v. Camel, 28 Mich., 111. +

+ + + +

+262. Deed, Trust, Fee.—A deed of land +to a Catholic bishop and his heirs and assigns +forever in trust for a Catholic parish +for the purpose of a free burial ground, +gave the bishop an estate in fee.Fitzpatrick v. Fitzgerald, 79 Mass., 400. +

+ +

+263. Debts, Creditors.—A committee of +a religious society authorized to sell lands +to raise money to pay its general debts, is +not authorized to execute a mortgage for +the purpose of securing various creditors +holding claims; and the defect in such mortgage +is not cured by a vote at a subsequent +meeting to which the committee made a report +of its action.Hubbard v. German, 34 Ia., 31. +

+ +

+264. Mortgage or Sale, Notice, Consent.—Whenever +there is to be a mortgage or +sale of the church property, if it is to be +done by the corporation, it must be done +strictly in accordance with the charter and +laws of the corporation, and if those do not +provide therefor, every member should receive +a reasonable notice to attend a meeting +of the congregation and the question should +be submitted to such meeting and a vote +taken thereon. If all the proceedings are +regular and the proper officers (president +and secretary) of the corporation be authorized + +to make a conveyance, it is good in law.In re First, 106 N. Y., 251; 12 N. E., 626; Wiswell v. +First, 14 Ohio St., 31. +However, if the irregular acts of officers or +members of a congregation are subsequently +ratified in a lawful manner, they become +binding.Scott v. First, 50 Mich., 528; 15 N. W., 891. When consent of the court is +required, it must be obtained.In re First, 106 N. Y., 251; 12 N. E., 626. +

+ +

+265. Title, Taxes, Judicial Notice.—If +the title is in the bishop in fee in accordance +with church law it is not owned by any +religious association and is liable for taxes. +The laws of the Catholic Church are not +the subject of judicial notice, but must be +alleged and proved as any other fact.Katzer v. City of Milwaukee, 104 Wis., 16; 79 N. W., +745; 80 N. W., 41. +

+ +

+266. Title, Diocese, Rule.—Where the +title to the property of the diocese was in +the bishop for the use of the church and +subsequently the diocese was incorporated, +the bishop was not divested of title and it +was still necessary to have the property conveyed +by deed.Beckwith v. St. Phillip's Parish, 69 Ga., 564. In some other States, however, +the contrary rule prevails.Miller v. Chittenden, 2 Ia., 315; 4 Ia., 252; Schenectady +v. Veeder, 4 Wendell, N. Y., 494. +

+ +

+267. Priest, Deed, Funds.—Where it +was claimed that a priest purchased lands +and took the deed in his own name and paid + +therefor with funds belonging to the congregation, +the conveyance will not be decreed +by the court only upon the clearest +and most satisfactory evidence.St. Patrick's v. Daly, 116 Ill., 76. +

+ +

+268. Monks, Missions, Title.—The fact +that the monks or priests were at the head +of the missions in California when it was +acquired by the United States, does not +prove that the Catholic Church had universal +ownership of the property.Nobilli v. Redman, 6 Cal., 325. The +acts of Congress giving the city of San Antonio +authority to sell public lands, was intended, +no doubt, to dispose of mission property, +but it was held not to affect the Catholic +Church, the title to which had been confirmed +by another act of Congress.San Antonio v. Odin, 15 Tex., 539. +

+ +

+269. Texan Revolution, Land.—At the +time of the Texan Revolution, a Catholic +church held no real estate of perfect title, +but enjoyed only the use of the land that it +possessed and continued so to occupy after +the admission of Texas into the Union.Blair v. Odin, 3 Tex., 288. +

+ +

+270. Priest, Agent, Deed.—The priest +in charge of a congregation is the agent of +the archbishop, and where the title to the +real estate is conveyed by absolute deed to +the bishop, the congregation, against the + +protest of the priest and without obtaining +leave from the bishop, has no right to tear +down a church for the purpose of rebuilding +or repairing it.Heiss v. Vosburg, 59 Wis., 532; 18 N. W., 463. And a priest in charge +of mission property may maintain in his +name an action to recover its possession.Santillan v. Moses, 1 Cal., 92. +

+ +

+271. Devise, Uncertainty.—A devise of +property to the Roman Catholic Orphans +of a certain diocese, making the bishop of +the diocese executor of the will and giving +him power to sell the property and use the +proceeds for the benefit of the Roman +Catholic orphans, is void for uncertainty.Heiss v. Murphy, 40 Wis., 276. +

+ +

+272. Donor, Ambiguous Provision.—The +religious convictions of the donor may +be shown for the purpose of construing an +ambiguous provision of a deed or will.Robertson v. Bullions, 11 N. Y., 243. +

+ +

+273. Trust, Evidence.—Without any +trust being declared in writing, parol evidence +can not be allowed to prove that the +Catholic Church and parsonage is held in +trust for the congregation by the bishop of +the diocese, notwithstanding that the +moneys for purchasing the lands and putting +up such buildings were collected by +subscriptions and contributions made to the +priest in charge under the law, usage, and + +polity of the Roman Catholic Church.Hennessey v. Walsh, 55 N. H., 515. At +common law land may be granted to pious +uses before there is a grantee to take it. In +the meantime, the title is in abeyance.Pawlet v. Clarke, 13 U. S., 292; 3 L. Ed., 735. +Where the title to parsonage lands is in the +minister as a sole corporation, on his death +the title remains in abeyance until a successor +is appointed.Cheever v. Pierson, 33 Mass., 266. +

+ +

+274. Money, Control.—Money raised by +a Catholic congregation for the purpose of +building a church does not come under the +absolute control of the bishop or priest, +although put into the hands of the latter for +safe keeping. It is subject to the control of +the congregation, although the members of +the congregation refused to obey the command +of the bishop of the diocese to consolidate +with another church to which the +priest was removed.Amish v. Gelhaus, 71 Ia., 170; 32 N. W., 318. +

+ +

+275. Church, Building, Removing.—Where +subscriptions were secured to build +a church at a particular place as a memorial +to a certain person, a congregation may be +enjoined from tearing down the building +and removing it to another place.Cushman v. Church, 162 Pa., 280; 29 At., 472. But a +court of equity will not prevent the removal + +of a church where a majority of the congregation +favors it, although a legal meeting +had not been held to determine the +matter.Kulinsky v. Dambrowski, 29 Wis., 109. +

+ +

+276. Church, Use, Division.—A church +guild that erected a building adjoining a +church for parish purposes, with the assent +of the congregation, can not deny the authority +of the church and use the building +for other purposes.Reed v. Church, 6 Pa. Co. Ct., 76. But if members are +improperly excluded from the use of the +church property they must appeal to the +courts for redress and can not resort to acts +of trespass to gain entrance into a church.Fulbright v. Higgenbotham, 133 Mo., 668; 34 S. W., +875; People v. Runkel, 9 Johnson, 147; Central v. Patterson, +30 N. Y. Supp., 248; Unangst v. Shortz, 5 Horton, +Pa., 506. +A court of equity will compel persons having +charge of the temporalities of a church, +whether incorporated or not, to faithfully +perform their trust and to prevent the diversion +of the property from its original +purposes. The court will not interfere in +strictly religious matters.Bowden v. MacLeod, 1 Edw., N. Y., 588; Gable v. Miller, +10 Paige, N. Y., 627; Wilson v. Johns, 2 Rich., S. C., +Eq., 192; Ferraria v. Vasconcellos, 31 Ill., 25. +

+ +

+277. Spanish Territory.—When Alabama +was a part of Spanish territory, a deed +of land to His Catholic Majesty for the + +purpose of building thereon a parochial +church and dwelling-house for the officiating +priest, the money being paid out of the +royal treasury, did not constitute the King +of Spain a trustee for the church or transfer +to the church in equity a title to the +lots.Antones v. Eslava's heirs, 9 Port., 527. +

+ +

+278. Trust, Purposes, Doctrines.—When +a conveyance of a lot is made to certain +persons of a religious society and their +successors in trust for religious purposes, +all the members become beneficiaries in equal +degree notwithstanding some of them may +have contributed larger sums than others.Ferraria v. Vasconcellos, 31 Ill., 25; Brunnenmeyer v. +Buhre, 32 Ill., 183. +Land conveyed to a church for valuable consideration +belongs to the church, whatever +change may take place in its religious doctrines; +and if a minority secedes on the +ground that they are the ones who retain the +original tenets of the church, they can not +take with them either the whole or pro rata +share of the church property.Organ v. Seaford, 1 Dev., N. C. Eq., 453; Post 290, 319. +

+ +

+279. Control, Revenues.—The trustees +of a corporation of a church or of a religious +society have entire control over the revenues +of such body.Gram v. Prussia, 36 N. Y., 161; Reformed v. Draper, 97 +Mass., 349. +

+ + + +

+280. Leave to Purchase, Title, Canons +of the Church.—A congregation wanted to +buy a church and priest's house, but the +archbishop refused leave to purchase, but +granted permission to keep the premises for +religious purposes for a time. The members +formed a society and bought and took +title in the name of the Lithuanian Benefit +Society of St. Anthony. Then the archbishop +wrote them a letter requiring the +deed of the premises to be put in his name, +which the congregation refused to do. A +part of the congregation brought a suit in +equity to enforce the transfer from the society +to the archbishop. The court held +that if the congregation was under the +church and acknowledged its authority, the +title must be settled by the canons of the +church; otherwise, the majority of the congregation, +in a duly called meeting, should +determine where the title should be vested.Dochkus v. Lithuanian, 206 Pa., 25; 55 At., 779. +

+ +

+281. Cemetery, Authority.—When a +congregation that had title to a cemetery +for many years entrusted the management +and sale of the lots to the priest, he had +thereby authority to create servitudes, such +as alleys to lots, which become binding on +the congregation and all third persons.Burke v. Wall, 29 La. Ann., 38. +

+ + + +

+282. Real Estate, Purpose.—A church +has no power to acquire and hold real estate +for any purpose other than that of promoting +the object of its creation, and any contract +entered into for a purchase of real +estate as a matter of speculation is ultra +vires and void.Thompson v. West, 59 Neb., 677; 82 N. W., 13; 49 L. +R. A., 337. +

+ +

+283. Limitation, Lands.—A statute of +the State prohibiting a religious society +from holding more than twenty acres, applies +to a single parish or congregation and +not to the entire denomination when it consists +of more than one congregation.Morgan v. Leslie, Wright, O., 144. +

+ +

+284. Conditions, Bequest, Deed, Time.—Where +property has been devised for a +particular purpose or on certain conditions +attached thereto, the law may be invoked to +protect the fund according to the bequest.Consistory v. Brandow, 52 Barb., N. Y., 228. +And where a deed contained a clause that +the lots should never be sold nor used in any +other way except for the benefit of a specified +Protestant Church, although the deed +contained no clause of forfeiture, when the +congregation sold the property the grantor +was entitled to have the deed set aside and +the title re-vested in himself.Grisson v. Hill, 17 Ark., 483. And a grant + +made upon condition that a church be +erected thereon, prevents the grantee from +conveying it for other purposes without the +consent of the grantor or his heirs.Scott v. Stipe, 12 Ind., 74; Mills v. Davison, 54 N. J. +Eq., 659; 35 At., 1072; 35 L. R. A., 113. But +where a devise was made on condition that +a church be built on the property within +three years, the provision being a condition +subsequent, a court has the right to extend +the time.Appeal of Tappen, 52 Conn., 412. +

+ +

+285. Will, Forfeiture.—The provision in +a will or deed that land shall be used for +purposes of a certain church, may create a +trust for the benefit of the church only and +not a condition the breach of which would +work a forfeiture.Neely v. Hoskins, 84 Me., 386; 24 At., 882. When a condition is +put in a deed that it shall be forever used as +a burial ground for the interment of bodies, +it is doubtful whether the grantor and +grantee together may change the uses of the +property. Therefore, it is important in +taking deeds to cemeteries to have no condition +whatever, unless such conditions are +desired.Second v. Dugan, 65 Md., 460; 5 At., 415. +

+ +

+286. Condition, Quit-Claim.—After conveying +land upon a specified condition, the +grantor then gave a quit-claim deed, and the + +court held that that relieved the grant from +the condition.Craig v. Inhabitants, 58 Me., 479. +

+ +

+287. Bishop, Trust, Successors.—A +deed of land to the bishop of a church for a +Protestant Episcopal church in fee simple, +created a trust and on the death of such +bishop the title passed to his successors.Beckwith v. St. Phillip's Church, 68 Ga., 564. +Where a grantee in a deed absolute on its +face, is in fact archbishop of the Roman +Catholic Church for his diocese, its canons +and decrees regulating the mode of acquiring +and holding church property are competent +evidence to show that the property is +so held in trust for purposes for public worship +and other charitable uses. And property +so held by a Catholic bishop in trust for +the diocese, or in trust for a congregation, +school, cemetery, or asylum, for the separate +use of each, is not chargeable with any part +of the expenses of another one or for improving +the church property generally in the +diocese.Mannix v. Purcell, 46 Ohio St., 102; 19 N. E., 572; 2 L. +R. A., 753. +

+ +

+288. Trustees, Vacancy.—When land is +conveyed to certain persons as trustees of a +church and their successors lawfully appointed, +a court of equity will not step in to +fill a vacancy but will leave that to be filled + +by the church in accordance with its discipline.Draper v. Minor, 36 Mo., 290. +But an attempt to sell real estate of +a religious society against the provisions of +its charter, will be prevented by a court of +equity.Burton's Appeal, 57 Pa. St., 213. +

+ +

+289. Church, Majority, Change.—When +property is conveyed to a church having a +well-known doctrine, faith, and practice, a +majority of the members has not the authority +or power by reason of a change of religious +views to carry the property thus dedicated +to a new and different doctrine.Smith v. Pedigo, 145 Ind., 361; 33 N. E., 777; 44 N. E., +363; 32 L. R. A., 838. +

+ +

+290. Title, Harmony, Division.—The +title to church property in a divided congregation +is in that part of the congregation +which acts in harmony with the law of the +denomination; and the ecclesiastical laws +and principles which were accepted among +them before the dispute began, are the standard +for determining which party is right.Free Ch. of Scotland v. Overton, Appeal Cases, House of +Lords, 1904; McGinnis v. Watson, 41 Pa. St., 9; Ante, 278. +In other cases the division of church property, +where there is a division of the congregation, +depends upon its particular facts.First v. Rauss, 21 Conn., 160; Watson v. Jones, 13 +Wallace, 679; 20 L. Ed., 666. +Where $400 was bequeathed to a Lutheran + +congregation in S——, there being at the +time of the making of the will but one Lutheran +congregation in the place, but subsequently +a majority of the trustees and members +with the pastor left the church and +built a new one, the old church continued +vested with the title to the property and all +its funds.App. v. Lutheran, 6 Pa. St., 201. +

+ +

+291. Perversion, Misuse, Suit.—Unless +there is substantial departure from the purpose +of the trust which amounts to a perversion +of it, a court of equity will not interfere +to prevent the misuse or abuse of a +trust of a religious nature. In actions in the +State court, if the church is not incorporated, +an action should be brought in the names of +the members collectively, and if they are too +numerous to be all named, the suit may be +brought in the name of one or more of them +for the whole. The same rules apply to religious +societies when sued. However, in +some dioceses, particularly in the Catholic +Church, the title to the church property is +in the bishop and he thereby becomes an interested +party who must be made either a +plaintiff or a defendant.Keller v. Tracy, 11 Ia., 530; Happy v. Morton, 33 Ill., +398; Leftwig v. Thornton, 18 Ia., 56. +

+ +

+292. Rights, Contracts, Torts, Crimes.—Vested +property rights, contracts, torts, + +and crimes, are usually subject to the laws +of the State and the control and judgment +of a church tribunal is seldom final. While +the State courts have no ecclesiastical jurisdiction +and can not revise or question ordinary +acts of church discipline, they have the +power to adjudicate conflicting claims of +parties to the church property or the use +of it.Watson v. Jones, 13 Wallace, 679; 20 L. Ed., 666. +

+ +

+293. Cemetery, Assessments.—Where a +lot was bought for the purpose of building a +church but was used for a cemetery, and a +church was built at another place and the +deed to the lot was taken in the name of the +trustees, the pastor and a member of the +church corporation were not the proper +parties to bring an action to restrain the +State from selling the lot to pay the assessments +for pavement, as they had no legal or +equitable interest for the protection of which +they could claim the interposition of a court +of equity.Dolan v. Mayor, 4 Gill., Md., 394. +

+ +

+294. Burned, Revert, Vested.—The fact +that a church on lands donated to the parish, +on condition of sustaining the church, +burned down, the title did not revert to the +grantor's heirs.Goode v. McPherson, 51 Mo., 126. Also land granted a bishop +for church uses, vested immediately in him + +and was not forfeited because it was not +used for church purposes.Olcott v. Gabert, 86 Tex., 121; 23 S. W., 985. +

+ +

+295. Abandoned, Revert.—Land granted +to trustees and their successors forever in +trust to erect a Methodist church, according +to its rules and discipline, which was used +for such church for a long time and then +abandoned and sold to parties who converted +it into a blacksmith shop, did not thereupon +revert in the absence of a provision to that +effect.Strong v. Doty, 32 Wis., 381. +

+ +

+296. Uses and Trusts.—The chapter of +the Wisconsin statutes on religious societies, +although not included in the same title as +the chapter abolishing all uses and trusts +excepting as therein created, was not intended +to prohibit the trusts expressly authorized +by the former.Fadness v. Braunburg, 73 Wis., 257; 41 N. W., 84. +

+ +

+297. Trust Funds, Account.—Where a +member of the church received funds to invest +in his own name for the benefit of the +church, he will be obliged in a court of equity +to give full account for the money and its +profits.Weld v. May, 9 Cushing, Mass., 181. +

+ +

+298. Fund, Diverted, Split.—A fund +created for a particular purpose, as the education +of children in the faith and doctrines + +of a denomination at the time the fund is +created, can not be diverted from its original +object.Field v. Field, 9 Wendell, N. Y., 394; Stokes v. Dale, +14 N. Y., 901. Neither can such a fund be split +up when a congregation is divided, but must +be retained as created.Hendrickson v. Shotwell, 1 N. J. Eq., 577; Calkins v. +Cheney, 92 Ill., 463; Park v. Chaplain, 96 Ia., 55; 64 N. +W., 674. +

+ +

+299. Church, Personalty.—A church removed +from its foundation and put on rollers +was severed from the realty and became personal +property.Beech v. Allen, 7 Hun., 441. +

+ +

+300. Lease, Purposes.—A religious literary +society and scientific corporation has +power to lease part of a building owned by +it for theatrical and operatic purposes.Catholic v. Gibbons, 3 Weekly Law Bulletin, 581. +

+ +

+301. Salary, Lien, Equity.—The church +building and the land on which it stands have +been held subject to the payment of a debt +due for the salary of a pastor of the congregation +owning such property.Lyons v. Planters, 86 Ga., 485. A contractor +is entitled to a lien on the church +property for work done on the building.African v. Duru, 19 La. Ann., 302; Harrisburg v. Washburn, +29 Oregon, 150; 44 Pac., 390. +A person who became liable for the debts of +the congregation incurred in the purchase +of church property, obtained relief in equity + +by subjecting the church property to a +sale.Lynn v. Carson, 32 Grat., Va., 170. +

+ +

+302. Bankruptcy, Creditors.—There is +no provision of law for a church corporation +to make an assignment in bankruptcy. However, +the church corporation may be sued +and a receiver appointed to take possession +of the property and sequester the assets.Proprietor v. Butler, 56 Mass., 597. +But where assignments in bankruptcy and a +sale and conveyance of church property are +lawful, the church property may be assigned +for the benefit of the creditors.DeRuyter v. St. Peter's, 3 N. Y., 238. +

+ +

+303. Jurisdiction, Process.—In order to +obtain jurisdiction where there are contentions +between various persons claiming to be +officers, the only safe rule is to serve the +process on all those who are in the offices or +claim the offices upon the occupants of which +the papers must be served.Perrian v. Methodist, 4 Abbot's Pr., N. Y., 424; +Unangst v. Shortz, 5 Horton, Pa. St., 506; Trustees v. +Hoessli, 13 Wis., 348. +

+ +

+304. States, Property, Restrictions.—Some +States restrict the quantity and use of +property that a religious society or church +may hold. Other States have no restrictions; +but nearly all the States have some +statutory law on the subject, which is +changed so frequently that it would be useless + +to give the provisions of such law in +this work.Miller v. Chittenden, 2 Ia., 315; Church v. Grace, 68 +N. Y., 570; Gilmer v. Stone, 120 U. S., 586; 30 L. Ed., +734; Kinney v. Kinney's Executors, 86 Ky., 610; 6 S. W., +593. +

+ +

+305. Land, Limitation.—A statute of +Illinois relating to Catholic societies contains +no limitations on property rights, but +it was held that the general law applied, and +that an organization having ten acres could +not acquire additional land by devise. A +conveyance of land to a corporation after it +has taken all the land allowed by law, is +void.St. Peter's v. German, 104 Ill., 440. In Kentucky where a church is limited +to fifty acres and a devise was made to +a church for the benefit of foreign missions, +it was held valid under a statute providing +that all devises for relief of aged, impotent, +poor people, churches, or for any other +charitable or humane purposes, shall be +valid.Kinney v. Kinney's Executors, 86 Ky., 610; 6 S. W., +593. Maryland's peculiar law by which +leave must be obtained from the Legislature +for a conveyance of more than two acres of +land, has been construed to give the Legislature +authority to ratify a conveyance that +otherwise would be void under the statute.Trustees v. Manning, 72 Md., 116; 19 At., 599. +Also, it was held in the same case that a +church might acquire more land, but that + +it would be restricted with regard to its use. +A statute prohibiting a religious society +from holding more than twenty acres of +land applied to a single religious society and +not to the denomination.Morgan v. Leslie, Wright, 144. Where the territorial +law provided that no religious corporation +should hold real estate of greater +value than $50,000, a receiver was appointed +for the Mormon corporation.U. S. v. Church, 5 Utah, 361; 15 Pac., 473. +

+ +

+306. Corporations, Bequests.—Foreign +religious corporations may be entitled to recover +bequests made to them in some States; +but the general rule is that a foreign religious +society has no better right to take property +by devise than a domestic corporation.In re Ticknor's estate, 13 Mich., 44; Levy v. Levy, 33 +N. Y., 97. +When the statute requires a conveyance to +specify the purpose for which a religious +society takes land, the failure to so specify +renders the deed void.Trustees v. Hilkin, 84 Md., 170; 35 At., 9. But the Young +Men's Christian Association was declared +not within the limitation because it was not +formed for pecuniary benefit and profit and +was not under the control of any one denomination +nor formed for religious worship.Hamsher v. Hamsher, 132 Ill., 273; 23 N. E., 1123; 8 +L. R. A., 556. +

+ + + +

+307. Collateral Attack.—A devise of +land to a religious society which will increase +the title beyond the amount that is allowed +by statute, can not be attacked collaterally +by a private individual.Hanson v. Little Sisters, 79 Md., 434; 32 At., 1052; +Jones v. Habersham, 107 U. S., 174; 27 L. Ed., 401. It is for the State +and not for the individual to make inquiry +into excess on the part of a religious society +in its accumulation.Church v. Grace, 68 N. Y., 570. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XXII. Religious Services + +

+308. Worship, Discipline, Innovations.—The +denomination itself, according to its +rules and regulations, determines what +services shall form a part of its public worship. +The inferior authority in the church +has no right to violate the discipline by innovations. +Whether or not devotional singing +may be accompanied with instrumental +music, must be determined by those who administer +the discipline of the church.Tartar v. Gibbs, 24 Md., 323. +

+ +

+309. Doctrines, Temporal Affairs.—The +fact that the congregation sells the pews +does not give the owners the right to determine +what doctrines shall be preached in +the church, nor who shall preach them.Trinitarian v. Union, 61 N. H., 384. A +majority of a local church can not change +the faith of the church against the protest +of the minority.Smith v. Pedigo, 145 Ind., 361; 44 N. E., 363; 32 L. R. +A., 838. The corporation of the +congregation is governed by the majority +only in temporal affairs.Miller v. English, 21 N. J. L., 317. However, some + +of the Protestant churches are so independent +that a vote of the congregation may +transfer them from one denomination to +another.Petot v. Tucker, 21 N. Y., 267. +

+ +

+310. Contributions, Presbyterians, Methodists.—Where +certain persons by contributions +built a church and the title was taken +and held by the Presbyterians who permitted +all other denominations to hold services +therein, all of which was a condition of the +subscriptions for establishing the church, +when the Presbyterians sold out to the Methodists +and they held it for their own exclusive +use, those who contributed the money +had the right to resort to the court to enforce +their rights to worship in such church.Ludlam v. Higbee, 11 N. J. Eq., 342. +

+ +

+311. True Religion, Courts.—Ordinarily +the civil courts do not interfere where +there is a question as to which of two or +more parties is adhering to the true religious +teaching of the denomination. If no +question of property or civil rights arises, +the court will not interfere.Happy v. Morton, 33 Ill., 398. +

+ +

+312. Heresy, Injunction.—Where a minister +did not preach the doctrine and the +entire system of Calvinistic theology received +and taught by that denomination, he + +had no right to the pulpit of the church, and +the court granted an injunction against his +officiating therein.Sutor v. Spangler, 4 Phil., 331. +

+ +

+313. Bequest, Sects, Condition.—Where +a bequest was made to erect a place of worship +with the privilege for other sects to +worship therein and forever to be used as +such, the trustees in whom the title vested +had no authority to sell without the consent +of the grantor or his heirs; and the congregation +having sold the church property and +it having been thereafter used for a store, +the grantor's heirs had a right of entry for +condition broken.Scott v. Stipe, 12 Ind., 74. +

+ +

+314. Sexton, Undertaker, Authorities.—The +sexton who has charge of the church +property may lawfully remove from the +church an undertaker who, after being +warned to desist and leave, persists in conducting +the funeral in violation of rules prescribed +by the authorities of the church.Commonwealth v. Dougherty, 107 Mass., 243. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XXIII. Bequests, Devises, And Gifts + +

+315. Statutes, Wills.—In some States a +religious society can not take under a will, +and a bequest of money to a church is void.In re Wright's estate, Myr. Prob., 213 Cal. +In Connecticut any devise to a religious corporation +not expressly authorized by statute, +is void.Green v. Dennis, 6 Conn., 293; Ferguson v. Hedges, 1 +Harr., 524. In Maryland leave to devise land +to a religious society must be obtained from +the Legislature.Murphy v. Dallam, 1 Bland, 529. In all the States it is +safest to consult and carefully follow the +statute in drawing a will. +

+ +

+316. Masses, Alabama.—Formerly as a +rule of the English common law, it was held +that bequests and devises for the purpose of +having Masses said for the soul of the deceased, +were void as superstitious uses; but +under Article 1 of the Amendments to the +United States Constitution, and under similar +provisions in the constitutions of the +several States, the English rule does not +prevail in the United States. However, Alabama + +adopted the English rule.Festorazzi v. St. Joseph's, 104 Ala., 327; 18 So., 394; +25 L. R. A., 360; Ex parte Schuler, 134 Mass., 436; Seiber's +Appeal, 9 At., Pa., 863; Holland v. Alcock, 108 N. Y., +312; 16 N. E., 305. By reading +the foot-note to the Alabama case, it will +be found that a majority of the States hold +that such bequests are lawful.Festorazzi v. St. Joseph's, 104 Ala., 327; 18 So., 394; +25 L. R. A., 360. Even in +Alabama if the bequest had been to a clergyman +or a certain person and accompanied by +a request to say Masses, the court might +have allowed it.McHugh v. McCole, 97 Wis., 166; 72 N. W., 352. +

+ +

+317. Name, Bequest, Corporation.—A +mistake in a name does not render a bequest +or a gift void if the person intended can be +identified.Wilson v. Perry, 29 W. Va., 169; 1 S. E., 302. Also, a devise may be made to +a corporation not yet organized and when it +is organized the gift or devise will vest. +During the interim, it will remain in abeyance.Jones v. Habersham, 107 U. S., 174; 27 L. Ed., 401. +

+ +

+318. Clergyman, Undue Influence.—A +clergyman who is a grantee in a deed from a +parishioner, although deriving no benefit +therefrom, has the burden of showing good +faith in the transaction as the law presumes +that he is guilty of undue influence. This +presumption is further strengthened by +proof of the enfeebled condition of the + +grantor by age and illness and his susceptibleness +to influence. Where the property +conveyed in trust for the parish was greatly +in excess of its needs, the deed was set +aside.Good v. Zook, 116 Ia., 582; 88 N. W., 376. +

+ +

+319. Contest, Secession.—In case of a +devise to a church which is claimed by two +societies, it is the duty of the court to decide +in favor of those who adhere to the ecclesiastical +government of the church which was +in operation at the time the trust was declared.Trustees v. Sturgeon, 9 Pa. St., 321. +However, to maintain such action +it must be brought by the proper parties.Scott v. Curle, 9 B. Mon., 17; Ante, 278, 290. +

+ +

+320. Bequests, Membership.—Bequests +left to individuals on condition that they +shall remain members of a certain church, +can be obtained only by complying with such +condition.In re Paulson's will, 127 Wis., 612; 107 N. W., 484. +

+ +

+321. Conditions, Religious Tenets.—In +order to determine the conditions of a trust +the religious tenets of the donor may be +shown to aid in construction of ambiguous +provisions.Robertson v. Bullions, 11 N. Y., 243. +

+ +

+322. Name, Uncertainty.—A bequest to +Georgetown University, in the District of +Columbia, which was incorporated under the + +name of The President and Directors of +Georgetown College, is not void for uncertainty, +as the only institution of learning in +the District of Columbia is Georgetown +College.62 Cen. L. J., 167. +

+ +

+323. Future Uses, Uncertainty.—A devise +to a foundling or eleemosynary institution, +whenever the Christians should create +one which the trustees approved, is valid.Ould v. Washington, 95 U. S., 303; 24 L. Ed., 450. +And a devise to the First Christian church +erected or to be erected in the village of Telfairville, +in Burke county, or to such persons +as may become trustees of the same, is +good as a charitable bequest.Jones v. Habersham, 107 U. S., 174; 27 L. Ed., 401. A bequest to +a priest to hold in trust and pay over to the +Sisters for the Poor, is valid.Darcy v. Kelley, 153 Mass., 433; 26 N. E., 1110. A bequest +for the care of a tombstone is valid in some +States and not in others without a statutory +provision.Bronson v. Strouse, 57 Conn., 147; 17 At., 699. A bequest to the bishop to be +by him used for Roman Catholic charitable +institutions in his diocese, sufficiently describes +the beneficiaries and is good.Tichenor v. Brewer's, 98 Ky., 349; 33 S. W., 86. Also, +a bequest to Bishop England in trust for +the Ladies of the Ursuline Order residing +in Charleston in the State of South Carolina, +was held for The Ladies of the Ursuline + +Community of the city of Charleston.Banker v. Phelan, 4 Barb., 80. +A bequest for Masses to a Roman Catholic +priest that shall succeed me in this place, +was held void for uncertainty.Bowers v. Fromm, Add., Pa., 362. A bequest +in trust to a bishop by name to sell and give +the proceeds to a society named, is not a +devise to the society, but to the bishop in +trust.Germania v. Baltes, 113 Ill., 29. +

+ +

+324. Education, Priesthood.—A devise +or bequest to a clergyman of property to be +used for the education of poor Catholic boys +for the priesthood, was sustained in court as +sufficiently definite for performance.McDonald v. Shaw, 98 S. W., 952. +

+ +

+325. Charitable Trust, Cy-Pres.—Equity +will not allow a charitable trust to fail for +want of a trustee, but will appoint one.Beaty v. Kurtz, 27 U. S., 566; 7 L. Ed., 521. +The doctrine of cy-pres as applied to charitable +gifts and trusts, is not in force in Alabama, +Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, +Maryland, Iowa, New York, North Carolina, +nor Wisconsin; but seems to prevail in +California, Illinois, Massachusetts, Missouri, +Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island. +

+ +

+326. Error, Ambiguity.—Great latitude +is allowed in charitable bequests, devises, +and gifts, in proving aliunde the beneficiary + +intended where there is error in the name or +a latent ambiguity.Heiss v. Murphy, 40 Wis., 276; Fadness v. Braunburg, +73 Wis., 257; 41 N. W., 84. The religion of the +testator will be considered in proving intention. +

+ +

+327. Dissolution, Resulting Trust.—On +dissolution of a religious society, the money +collected or derived from the sale of property +goes back as a resulting trust to the +contributors.Coe v. Washington, 149 Mass., 543; 21 N. E., 966. +

+ +

+328. Charity, Institutions.—To determine +what is a charitable trust, devise, or +gift, it is necessary to particularly bear in +mind the most comprehensive definition of +charity. Legacies for schools, churches, +libraries, cemeteries, the poor, hospitals, and +numerous other eleemosynary institutions, +have been sustained under charitable bequests +when they otherwise would have +failed.Clark v. Brown, 108 S. W., 421, Tex. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XXIV. Taxation + +

+329. Purposes, Exempt.—Only church +property that is actually used for church or +charitable purposes, is exempt from taxation. +Property held for its increase or profit +is not exempt.Parker v. Quinn, 23 Utah, 332; 64 Pac., 961. Land bought for a church +on which no work on the church is yet begun, +is not exempt from taxation.All Saints v. Brookline, 59 N. E., 1003, Mass. +

+ +

+330. Lot Isolated, Not Exempt.—A lot +isolated from the other property of the +church of a congregation, is not exempt because +the congregation intends to build a +church thereon in the future, and actually +did build a church thereon two years later.Green v. Outagamie, 76 Wis., 587; 45 N. W., 536. +

+ +

+331. Bishop's Residence, Hospital.—Real +property the title to which is in the +archbishop in fee in accordance with the +discipline of the Catholic Church, is not +owned by a religious association so as to +exempt it from taxation. The records do +not show a trust for the diocese nor any +other beneficiary. A court will not take + +judicial notice of the laws of the Catholic +Church.Katzer v. City, 104 Wis., 16; 80 N. W., 41. But property used as a hospital +to care for the sick and wounded of all races +and religions indiscriminately, with or without +pay according to the ability of the +patient, is a benevolent institution engaged +in a work of charity, and comes under the +law of tax exemption.St. Joseph Hospital v. Ashland, 96 Wis., 636; 72 N. +W., 43. +

+ +

+332. Parsonage, Rented.—A parsonage +owned by a congregation and used only as a +residence for the clergyman is not exempt +because of some part of it being also used +for alleged religious services, to-wit: morning +prayers of the children before school, a +sewing society, and a meeting place for Sunday-school +teachers.Ramsey v. Church, 45 Minn., 229; 47 N. W., 783. However, a house and +lot rented and kept by the minister was exempt +from taxation.Gray v. Lafayette, 65 Wis., 567; 27 N. W., 311. +

+ +

+333. Masonic Order, Charity, Elks.—A +charity which is confined exclusively to the +members of the Masonic Order and their +families or to the widows and children of +deceased members or those who are directly +or indirectly connected with the society, is +not purely a public charity within the provisions +of the constitution relating to the + +exemption of institutions of purely public +charity from taxation.Newport v. Masonic, 108 Ky., 333; 56 S. W., 405; 49 +L. R. A., 252. And property held +by the Elks for entertainment and to promote +social intercourse was held not exempt.Trustees v. City, 122 Wis., 452; 100 N. W., 837. +

+ +

+334. Supporting Church, Mississippi.—In +the early ages of the States several of +them had laws for taxing all the property +in parishes laid out by the State for the +support of Protestant churches. Gradually +these laws were eliminated and at the present +time there is probably no State excepting +Mississippi that uses money for the support +of a church. Maine changed her laws in +1821, and other States followed from time +to time.Dahl v. Kimball, 6 Me., 171. While those taxes were collected, +no land within the parish was exempt in +some States and in others the property of a +non-resident was exempt.Turner v. Inhabitants, 16 Mass., 208; Goodell Mfg. Co. +v. Trask, 28 Mass., 514. In New Hampshire +and Pennsylvania, a person could not +be compelled to pay the taxes to a denomination +of which he was not a member.Muzzy v. Wilkins, Smith, 1; Ebau v. Hendell, 5 Watts, +43; 30 Am. Dec., 291. +

+ +

+335. Appropriations, Contracts, Rent.—Under +the constitution of the United States, + +Congress can not make appropriations nor +give aid to any denomination. Also, similar +provisions are in many of the constitutions +of the States. However, many cases arise +out of contracts, which border upon these +various rules, and in some States the constitutional +provision of the State is such that +the State Legislature may legislate concerning +religions and give certain aid and support +thereto. Paying rent to a congregation +for a school-room is not an appropriation or +aid to a church contrary to the constitution.Miller v. Board, 19 Ill. App., 48; Municipality of Ponce +v. R. C. A. Ch., 28 Sup. Ct. R., 737; Reuben Quick-Bear +v. Leupp, 28 Sup. Ct. Repr., 690; Dorner v. Dist., 118 N. +W., 353. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XXV. Eleemosynary Institutions + +

+336. Poor, Institutions, Negligence.—As +hospitals, homes for the poor, and other +eleemosynary institutions are supported by +money given to charity, it would be a diversion +of the trust funds if such institutions +could be compelled to pay damages for negligence +causing personal injury or death. +The general rule is that the person causing +the injury may be liable, but not the institution.53 Cen. L. J., 224. +However, a charitable institution has +been held liable for negligence of its manager +to notify a nurse of the contagious +nature of a case assigned to her.Hewitt v. Woman's, 73 N. H., 556; 64 At., 190. +

+ +

+337. Surgeon, Gratuitous Services.—A +charitable medical institution is not liable for +the negligence of its surgeon in operating +upon a patient gratuitously where such institution +exercises due care in employing a +surgeon deemed competent. The fact that +besides such gratuitous services, medicine is +taught therein for tuition fees and patients +who are able to pay are charged a small fee + +for room, board, nursing, etc., but no fee +from the patient to the doctor, does not +change it from a charitable institution.Collins v. New York, 69 N. Y. Supp., 106. +However, a hospital that is an adjunct to +a medical school is liable.Louisville v. Hammock, 106 S. W., Ky., 219; 14 L. R. +A., N. S., 784. +

+ +

+338. Charitable Institution.—An institution +that limits its benefactions to the +members of a particular denomination is, +in the absence of a statute to the contrary, +a charitable institution.Indianapolis v. Grant, 25 Ind., 518. This rule has exceptions.Newport v. Masonic, 108 Ky., 333; 56 S. W., 405; 49 +L. R. A., 252. +

+ +

+339. Charter, Real Estate.—The trustees +of a religious, literary, or other benevolent +society, can not, irrespective of the powers +granted by its charter, purchase and hold +real estate under trusts of their own creation +which will protect their property from creditors.McGee v. German, 13 N. J. Eq., 77. +

+ +

+340. Mortmain, Title, Trust.—The +statute of mortmain was never in force in +Pennsylvania, so a religious corporation can +hold the legal title to land in trust for the +heir-at-law of a testator who has devised it +to the corporation in trust for uses that + +were void under the English law.Miller v. Lerch, Wall. Jr., Pa., 210. The only +States that have statutes of mortmain are +Mississippi and North Carolina. Yet in +those States the statutes are somewhat different +from the law of England. +

+ +

+341. Public Institutions, Support.—Benevolent +and charitable institutions under +a church are not public institutions, and +moneys can not be appropriated for their +support.St. Mary's Industrial School for Boys v. Brown, 45 +Md., 310. +

+ +

+342. Nuns, Vows, Property.—When +joining a society of nuns, one of the vows +taken was that all property should be held +in common and whatever property was received +after taking the vows should belong +to the society. A person who left the order +was not concluded from making claim for +her property.White v. Price, 108 N. Y., 661; 15 N. E., 427. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XXVI. Schools + +

+343. Parent, Education, State, Parochial +Schools.—The right of the parent to use +judgment as to the proper necessaries of his +child, including board, lodging, and education, +is generally conceded. However, there +must be no abuse of these parental rights, as +the child also has rights that even a parent +can not infringe. Therefore, the State may +require a reasonable opportunity for the education +of every child; and if the parent can +not give it on account of his poverty, it is in +the power of the State to take his child in +charge and furnish him an education. The +right of the State to make laws requiring a +parent to send his child to school between +certain ages, as from four to twenty-one +years, is well settled. The question of the +parent's being obliged to send his child to +the public schools or being forbidden to send +his child to a private or parochial school, is +not settled in some States; but it is being +settled in favor of the parent. The Kentucky +constitution contains this provision: +... nor shall any man be compelled to + +send his child to any school to which he may +be conscientiously opposed.Sec. 5, Ky. Constitution; Contra: N. H. Constitution, +art. 6. The right of +the State to supervise or inspect private and +parochial schools under the police power of +the State can not be questioned.Donahue v. Richards, 38 Me., 376; State v. Baily, 157 +Ind., 324; 61 N. E., 730; 54 Cen. L. J., 142. +

+ +

+344. Orphan Asylums, School Moneys.—In +1850 the New York Legislature enacted +a law as follows: The schools of the several +incorporated orphan asylums within the +State other than those in the city of New +York, shall participate in the distribution +of the school moneys in the same manner +and to the same extent in proportion to the +number of children educated therein, as the +common schools in their respective cities and +districts. The court ruled that moneys devoted +by the constitution to the State for the +support of common schools could not be distributed +under the act, for the reason that +such asylums are not public schools; but +moneys from other sources might be paid +for the education of such orphan children +in proportion to their number to those educated +in the common schools of their respective +cities and districts.St. Patrick's v. Rochester, 34 How. Pr., 227. The schools +kept by the Roman Catholic Orphan Asylum + +Society of the city of Brooklyn, are not +common schools within the meaning of the +constitution, and a provision of law that +such schools should share in the distribution +of school moneys raised by the State was +void.People v. Board, 13 Barb., N. Y., 400. +

+ +

+345. Contract, Direct Payment, Lease.—No +school of any denomination or sect is +entitled to public moneys for its support, +either by contract for the education of students +therein or by direct payment from the +government.Synod v. State, 2 S. Dak., 366; 50 N. W., 632; 14 L. +R. A., 418. A school conducted by the +Catholic Church in which religious instruction +is given to Catholic children is a sectarian +institution within the constitutional +provision against using public funds for +sectarian purposes; but public school money +expended for such a school conducted by +this school district could not be recovered +by suit against the school officers.State v. Hallock, 16 Nev., 373; Dorner v. School Dist., +118 N. W., Wis., 353 (Nov. 27, 1908). Also, +a school maintained as a charity under direction +of trustees elected by the town where +they must be of a certain religion, is not +entitled to public moneys.Jenkins v. Andover, 103 Mass., 94. But the lease of +a part of a parochial school building or the +basement of a church for public school purposed + +does not violate the law.Millard v. Board, 121 Ill., 297; 10 N. E., 669; Dorner v. +School Dist., 118 N. W., Wis., 353. In the +States of Maine, Iowa, Massachusetts, Illinois, +Ohio, Kansas, and Texas, the reading +of the King James Bible and the singing of +hymns and saying prayers have been held +not sectarian.Church v. Bullock, 100 S. W., Tex., 1025; Donahue v. +Richards, 38 Me., 379; 56 C. L. J., 81. But in Wisconsin, the court +ruled the other way.State v. Board, 76 Wis., 177; 44 N. W., 967; 7 L. R. A., +330; 53 Am. R., 282; 14 L. R. A., 419; Dorner v. School +Dist., 118 N. W., Wis., 353 (Nov. 27, 1908). +

+ +

+ +346. Teacher, Lord's Prayer, Exercise.—A +public school teacher, who, for the +purpose of quieting the pupils and preparing +them for their regular studies, repeats the +Lord's Prayer and the Twenty-second +Psalm as a morning exercise, without comment +or remark, in which none of the pupils +are required to participate, is not conducting +a form of religious worship or giving +sectarian or religious instruction.Billard v. Board, 69 Kan., 53; 76 Pac., 422; 66 L. R. +A., 166. Substantially +the same rule applies in Pennsylvania.Stevenson v. Hanyon, 7 Pa. Co. Ct., 585; State v. +Board, 76 Wis., 177; 44 N. W., 967; 7 L. R. A., 330; State +v. Scheve, 65 Neb., 853; 91 N. W., 846; 59 L. R. A., 927. +However, similar religious exercises +conducted by Catholic teachers have + +generally been held sectarian and not permissible +in public schools.Dorner v. School District, 118 N. W., Wis., 353 (Nov. +27, 1908); County v. Industrial School, 125 Ill., 540; 18 +N. E., 183; 1 L. R. A., 437; 8 Am. St. Rep., 386; O'Connor +v. Hendrick, 184 N. Y., 421; 77 N. E., 612. +

+ +

+347. Ohio, Directors, Bible.—The constitution +of the State of Ohio does not +enjoin nor require religious instruction or +the reading of religious books in the public +schools. The board of directors of a district +has charge of the instruction and books +to be used therein, and their official discretion +will not be interfered with. Therefore, +they were authorized to have the Bible read +at the opening of the school.Board v. Minor, 23 Ohio, 250; Campanas v. Calderhead, +17 Mont., 548; 44 Pac., 83; 36 L. R. A., 277. +

+ +

+348. Public School, Bible, Prayer.—The +committee having control of a public school +may make a rule requiring the school to be +opened by reading from the Bible and +prayer every morning, and that each child +shall bow the head during such prayers; +that any scholar shall be excused from bowing +the head whose parents request it; and +when any scholar refuses to obey such rule +and his parents refuse to request that he +shall be excused, the committee may exclude +such scholar from the school.Spiller v. Woburn, 12 Allen, Mass., 127. +

+ + + +

+349. Text-Books, State.—The State has +the power to grant authority to the State +Board of Education to select and prescribe +text-books to be used in the public schools +of the State.School Commissioners v. State Board, 26 Md., 505. +

+ +

+350. Bible, Conscience, Constitution.—The +parent of a child expelled from the +public school can not maintain an action +against the school committee by whose orders +it was done. In the same case it was +held that a rule requiring every scholar to +read a particular version of the Bible, +though it may be against the conscience of +some to do so, does not violate the letter or +spirit of the constitution.Donahue v. Richards, 38 Me., 379; 56 Cen. L. J., 81. +

+ +

+351. Schoolhouse, Sunday-School Purposes.—The +inhabitants of a school district +have no right to use the schoolhouse for religious +meeting on Sunday against the objection +of any taxpayer in the district, notwithstanding +that the officers of the district +granted such right. A taxpayer may obtain +an injunction against such use, although the +injury to him be very slight, as he has no +other remedy.Scofield v. State, 27 Conn., 499. A district school board can +not authorize the use of the schoolhouse for +any other than school purposes.School v. Arnold, 21 Wis., 657. +

+ + + +

+352. Child, Immoral Character.—The +school committee in order to maintain purity +and discipline, may exclude therefrom a +child whom they deem to be of licentious +or immoral character, although such character +is not manifested in acts of licentiousness +or immorality within the school.Sherman v. Charleston, 8 Cushing, Mass., 160; State v. +Board, 116 N. W., 232; 67 Cen. L. J., 241. +

+ +

+353. Parents, Studies, Teacher.—The +requirement of a teacher that a scholar in +grammar shall write English composition is +a reasonable one, and refusal to comply +therewith in the absence of a request from +his parents that he be excused therefrom, +will justify the expulsion of a scholar from +school.Guernsey v. Pitkin, 32 Vt., 224. But when a parent selects certain +studies that the law provides to be taught +for his child to study, the teacher has no +right to insist that the child shall take some +other study and inflict punishment to enforce +obedience.Wood v. Morrow, 35 Wis., 59. +

+ +

+354. Chastisement, Cruel.—The chastisement +of a scholar by the schoolmaster +must not be excessive or cruel, but it should +be reasonably proportioned to the offense +and within the bounds of moderation.Anderson v. State, 3 Head, Tenn., 455. +

+ + + +

+355. Schoolmaster, Authority.—Although +a schoolmaster has in general no +right to punish a pupil for misconduct after +the dismissal of the school for the day and +the return of the pupil to his home, yet he +may on the pupil's return to school punish +him for any misbehavior, though committed +out of school, which has a direct and immediate +tendency to injure the school and to +subvert the master's authority. The fact +that the master acted in good faith will not +excuse him from damages for the punishment +of a scholar where the punishment is +clearly excessive and unnecessary. However, +where there is a reasonable doubt the +master should have the benefit of it.Lander v. Seaver, 32 Vt., 114. +

+ +

+356. Force, Assistance.—And where a +scholar in school hours places himself in the +desk of the instructor and refuses to leave it +on the request of the master, the master may +immediately use such force and call to his +assistance such aid from another person as +may be necessary to remove the scholar. +The same rule would apply to any one who +is not a scholar and intrudes upon the +school.Stevens v. Fassett, 27 Me., 266. +

+ +

+357. White, Unmarried.—Before the +adoption of the fourteenth amendment it + +was necessary in most States that in addition +to the child being under twenty-one +years of age, he must be of white blood and +unmarried.Draper v. Cambridge, 20 Ind., 268. In Ohio, negroes, Indians, +and children of less than half white blood, +were not entitled to the benefit of the school +fund; and even where this would entirely +exclude from school children not sufficient +to form a district, still it was held that +such children could not attend the white +school.Lane v. Baker, 12 Ohio St., 237; State v. City, 19 Ohio, +178; Van Camp v. Board, 9 Ohio St., 406. +

+ +

+358. Facilities, the Constitution.—So +long as abundant facilities are given for the +education of all the children of a district, it +is not a violation of the constitution of the +United States to keep negro and white +people separated. The same rule applies to +courts.Ex parte Plessy, 45 La. Ann., 80; 11 So., 948; 16 Sup. +Ct. R., 1138; 163 U. S., 537; 41 L. Ed., 256; 18 L. R. A., +639. +

+ +

+359. Residents, Public Schools.—Children +in a German Protestant orphan asylum +are not children, wards, or apprentices +of actual residents in the district of the +asylum, and therefore are not entitled to +enter the public schools of the district.State v. School Directors, 10 Ohio St., 448. +

+ + + +

+360. Board, Majority.—Two of the +three members of a school board have no +authority to act by themselves, and their individual +agreement to dismiss a teacher is +void. A school board can only act at a duly +called meeting of the board, and then the +majority vote duly taken decides.Jackson v. Hampden, 16 Me., 184. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XXVII. Parent And Child + +

+361. Custody, Maternal Relatives, Father.—A +parent is entitled to the care and custody +of his child if he is competent to transact +his own business and not otherwise +unsuitable. And the mere fact that the +maternal relatives who have had the care of +the child from its birth have become attached +to it and desire to continue to care +for it and are able to secure it better advantages +than its parent, does not render +the parent unsuitable to have its care and +custody within the meaning of the statute. +Also, the want of a sympathetic nature or +cold reserve in a parent or the fact that he +is away on business a great deal of the time, +is not sufficient to render him unsuitable. +But the right of the father may be lost or +forfeited by his ill-conduct, gross ill-treatment, +cruelty, or abandonment, or when his +conduct and life are such as are injurious to +the morals and interest of his child. When +the father dies or forfeits his right for +reasons already given, the mother, if alive, +succeeds to all those rights, subject, however, + +to the same conditions as the father. +And in the case of a child of tender years, +the good of the child has to be regarded as +the predominant consideration.Markwell v. Pereles, 95 Wis., 406 and 424; 69 N. W., +798 and 984. +

+ +

+362. Mother, Illegitimate, Father.—The +mother has a right to the care and custody +of her illegitimate child to the same extent +that a parent has to his legitimate child.Perry v. State, 113 Ga., 936; 39 S. E., 315. +The putative father on the mother's death +succeeds to the mother's rights as against +the maternal relatives and may secure the +custody of the child by habeas corpus. This +rule is different from the one that prevailed +in the Roman law.Aycock v. Harrington, 84 Miss., 204; 36 So., 245; 65 +L. R. A., 689. However, when the +father has given bond for the care, support, +and education of an illegitimate child, his +right to the custody of the child may be +superior.Wright v. Bennett, 7 Ill., 587. +

+ +

+363. Legitimatized.—And when under a +statute a child is legitimatized by acknowledgment +or subsequent marriage, the father +has the better right to its custody.Graham v. Bennett, 2 Cal., 503. Usually +there are many provisions in the statutes of +the various States which substantially provide + +for the rights, relative and otherwise, +of the parents and child in such cases. +

+ +

+364. Punishment, Instrument, Murder.—A +parent or a person in foro domestico +or in loco parentis may give reasonable corrective +punishment with a fit instrument +to a child. But if a parent or master whips +a child so that it dies, he is guilty of manslaughter. +And if he uses lethal instruments +of punishment, he is guilty of murder.State v. Harris, 63 N. C., 1. +Where a mother in anger threw a +poker at one child and hit and killed another +child, she was guilty of manslaughter.Rex. v. Canon, 7 Car. and P., 438. The +punishment always becomes unlawful when +it is excessive, and drunkenness is no excuse.Rex. v. Griffen, 6 Cox. C. C., 402. +

+ +

+365. Guardian, Religion, Courts.—In +England where a child was taken from the +testamentary guardian, who after the death +of the testator changed her religion from a +Protestant to a Catholic, it was held thereby +to be incompetent to continue as guardian.F. v. F., 1 Ch. (1902), 688. +And in New York it was held that +where the father and mother were Catholics, +the guardian must endeavor to bring +the children up in that faith, as a guardian +will not be permitted to proselyte wards.In re Jacques, 82 N. Y. Sup., 986. + +But where a father who was a Catholic +allowed his child to be brought up by a maternal +aunt who was a Protestant, until the +child was fourteen years of age, the father +was not then entitled to the child's custody +for the purpose of having it instructed in +his own faith.In re Marshall, 33 N. Y. S., 104. Courts will not interfere +with the religion of a child, but will allow +it to be brought up in the religion of its +parents; however, the best interests of the +child will be considered by the court without +conceding everything else to its religion.Kennedy v. Borah, 226 Ill., 243; 80 N. E., 767. +

+ +

+366. Convent, Consent.—A daughter +under age who entered a convent to become +a nun without the consent of her mother, +may, on a writ of habeas corpus on the petition +of her mother, be required to leave the +convent and return to her home.Prieto v. Alphonso, 52 La. Ann., 631; 27 So., 153. +

+ +

+367. Adoption, Rights, Duties.—Persons +of suitable age and circumstances to enter +the marital relations, may adopt a child. +When a married couple do not unite in +adopting a child, the consent of the non-adopting +spouse must be obtained. Also, +if the child's parents are living, their consent +is necessary unless they have lost their +paternal rights by abandonment or divorce. + +The decree of adoption may be set aside for +good cause. The adopted parent has all the +rights over and duties toward the person of +the adopted child that a natural parent has, +including necessaries and religious training. +Usually the child inherits from the adopted +parents, but the adopted parents do not inherit +from the child. The statutes on adoption +are not the same in the several States, +but they cover the subject and must be +strictly followed.Clarkson v. Hatton, 143 Mo., 47; 44 S. W., 761; 65 Am. +St. R., 635; Matter of Johnson, 98 Cal., 531; 33 Pac., 260; +21 L. R. A., 380; Schlitz v. Roenitz, 86 Wis., 31; 56 N. W., +194; 39 Am. St. R., 873; 21 L. R. A., 482; Markwell v. +Pereles, 95 Wis., 406; 69 N. W., 798; 67 Cen. L. J., 197. +

+ +

+368. Infancy, Manumission, Marriage.—At +common law a person is an infant until +he is twenty-one years of age. Statutes +have modified that rule so that girls in some +States, and both girls and boys in others, +may contract marriage at an earlier age +without the parental consent. Generally, +an infant can not contract marriage without +the consent of the living parent or guardian +unless the child has been manumitted. +Where the boy was under the age of consent, +but he falsely told the priest that he +was of full age, his father had the marriage +annulled.Elliott v. Elliott, 77 Wis., 634; 46 N. W., 806; 57 L. +R. A., 155; 10 L. R. A., 568. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XXVIII. Husband And Wife + +

+369. Custody, Father.—A husband is entitled +to the custody of his wife against +her father, and where a son-in-law killed +his father-in-law in resisting the latter from +taking his daughter out of his (the son-in-law's) +house, the court held that it could not +be more than manslaughter; and if it were +necessary to kill to protect and maintain his +wife, the defendant was not guilty.Cole v. State, 75 S. W., 527; 45 Tex.; Cr. App., 225; +57 Cen. L. J., 341. But +for good cause and without malice a parent +may advise his child to leave spouse.Mutter v. Senibbs, 79 N. E., 762, Mass. +

+ +

+370. Corrective Authority, Services, +Domicile.—In America a husband gains no +right to corrective authority over his wife. +He can neither whip her nor use abusive +language to her. The same rule applies to +the wife, as they stand equal before the +law.Commonwealth v. McAfee, 108 Mass., 458. However, a husband is entitled to all +the services of his wife and a promise to pay +her extra for housework can not be + +enforced.Tuttle v. Sutts, 96 Pac., 260. Also, the husband has the right to +determine their place of domicile, and if the +wife unreasonably refuses to accompany her +husband, it is desertion, for which he may +obtain a divorce.Gleason v. Gleason, 4 Wis., 64; 14 Cyc, 846. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XXIX. Indians + +

+371. Indians, Citizens, Wards.—There +are a great number of statutory provisions +concerning Indians, both in the United +States statutes and in the statutes of the +several States, most of which are not of +great importance at the present time, as the +Indians are confined to a few States. When +they become citizens of the State in which +they reside, their status is the same as other +citizens; but so long as they remain in their +tribal relations they are taken care of as +wards of the Union. +

+ +

+372. Schools, Cemeteries, Churches.—In +Oklahoma there are schools provided for +them. When a tribe cedes 160 acres to the +United States, it will give it a school for ten +years, and as much longer as it deems necessary. +Also, the Indians may have their own +cemeteries, schools, and churches, where the +Indians belong to the tribes, and they are +allowed lands therefor.32 St. At. L., 636 and 645. In other States, +under the general law, the money of Indian + +minors may be held in the treasury by the +Secretary of the Interior and paid to parents +and guardians in such sums and at such +times as the Secretary in his discretion may +determine.Chap. 1402, U. S. Laws of 1904. There is no doubt that out of +those moneys, parents might pay for their +children at private schools.Quick-Bear v. Leupp, 28 Sup. Ct. Rep., 690 (1908). +

+ +

+373. Inspectors, Duties.—Under the +United States laws, inspectors are appointed +to visit Indian agencies and investigate all +matters concerning them and to examine all +contracts and accounts with the Indians and +make report thereon to the Secretary of the +Interior. The contracts for support of religion, +schools, and charitable institutions, +come under their duties.Sec. 2045, U. S. Statutes. +

+ +

+374. President, Trades.—The President +may cause Indians to be instructed in trades +and agriculture and have them taught the +elementary branches.Secs. 2071 and 2072, U. S. Statutes, and Chap. 188, +Laws of 1895. +

+ +

+375. Commissioner, School, Rations, +Bible, Sectarian.—Another officer of great +importance is the Commissioner of Indian +Affairs, who has most to do with the education +and schools of the Indians.26 St. At. L., 1014. He may +require parents and guardians to send children + +to school and withhold rations from +them for failure so to do. Also, there is +a fund under the control of the United +States as trustee, with which he may make +contracts for the education of Indian children +at private schools.Quick-Bear v. Leupp, 28 Sup. Ct. Repr., 690; 27 St. L., +628 and 635. However, the +jurisdiction of the commissioner over Indian +children does not extend to those off +the reservation.In re Lehah-puc-ka-chee, 98 Fed., 429. Among other provisions +of the United States statutes is the following: +The Christian Bible may be taught +in the native language of the Indians if in +the judgment of the persons in charge of +the school it may be deemed conducive to +the moral welfare and instruction of the +pupils in such schools.Chap. 503, Laws of 1888. The Bible continues +its position among the Indians, but +appropriations for the Church are cut off +by the following provision: It is hereby +declared to be the settled policy of the government +to hereafter make no appropriations +whatever for education in any sectarian +school.Chap. 3, Laws of 1897. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XXX. Juvenile Courts + +

+376. Reformatories, Object, Liberty.—During +the past few years juvenile courts +have been created for the purpose of committing +children to reformatories. The proceedings +are not criminal actions, but of an +equitable nature.61 Cen. L. J., 101, 289; 62 Cen. L. J., 215, 219. However, as the object +is to deprive the child of its liberty, the +statute must be strictly construed and followed.McCann v. County, 6 Mont., 297. +An infant can not waive a right.Hubbard v. Railway, 104 Wis., 160; 80 N. W., 454. +If a child has been wrongfully committed +or is wrongfully detained, the proper remedy +for his discharge is a writ of habeas +corpus.Hochheimer on Custody of Infants, sec. 54; People v. +Turner, 55 Ill., 280; People v. Park, 41 N. Y., 21, 33. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XXXI. Libel And Slander + +

+377. Confidential, Tribunal, Malice.—The +rule is that all confidential statements +made to an officer or a tribunal of the church +concerning a member in the course of +church discipline and for the good of the +church, if not made with malice, are privileged, +and no action for libel or slander can +be maintained therefor.Kleizer v. Symes, 40 Ind., 562; Etchison v, Pergeson, +88 Ga., 620; 15 S. E., 680; Lucas v. Case, 72 (9 Bush) Ky., +297; York v. Pease, 68 Mass., 288; Piper v. Woolman, 43 +Neb., 280; 61 N. W., 588; O'Donahue v. McGovern, 23 +Wendell, N. Y., 26; Servatius v. Pichel, 34 Wis., 292. +

+ +

+378. Member, Officer, Councils.—But +slanderous or libelous statements made concerning +a person not a member of the church +or made concerning a member of the church +to another member who is not either an +officer or in the councils of the church, are +actionable and the person making or publishing +such statements is liable for damages. +Also, a person who repeats a libel or +slander may be liable as though he were the +originator.Combes v. Rose, 8 Blackf., 155; Servatius v. Pichel, 34 +Wis., 292; Etchison v. Pergeson, 88 Ga., 620; 15 S. E., 680. +

+ + + +

+379. Official Communication, Privileged.—An +official communication between authorities +of the church or an authority and +a member of the church concerning a church +matter or church members and not made in +malice, is privileged.Gardener v. Anderson, Fed. Case, 5220; Rector v. +Smith, 11 Ia., 302. +

+ +

+380. Priest, Pastoral Duties.—Where a +priest published from the altar that Peter +Servatius is excommunicated, because he +laid hands on the priest to put him out of +the church, and he has no more benefit of +the prayers of the church. I will not pray +for him, and consider him a lost sheep and +withdraw all my pastoral blessings from +him. If he die, the burial rights of the +church will be denied him, such remarks +were held defamatory, unless they were +spoken in the proper discharge of the priest's +clerical and pastoral duties and without +malice; and the case should have been submitted +on the evidence to a jury.See Excommunication, ante. Servatius v. Pichel, 34 +Wis., 292; 11 L. R. A., 592. +

+ +

+381. Church Record, Excommunication.—An +entry of a church record that A report +raised and circulated by A. B. against +Brother C., stating that he made him pay +a note twice, and proved by A. B. as false, + +is libelous.Shelton v. Nause, 46 Ky., 128. But an entry of excommunication +of a member made in the record and +shown to other members, is not libelous, the +latter being properly a part of the record +and the former extraneous.Fawcett v. Charles, 13 Wendell, 473. +

+ +

+382. Will, Libel, Action.—The will of a +priest contained a statement that a relative +had received $300 from him for clothing, +maintenance, education, etc., and promised +to repay it, but paid no part of it. Then +testator bequeathed said $300 to two legatees +to collect for their own use. The relative +filed a petition asking the estate of the priest +to be held liable for a libel in the sum of +$50,000 and the court held that as the right +of action did not accrue until after the death +of the testator, there was a right of action +against the estate. As the case never got +beyond the probate court, its authority is +doubtful.54 Cen. L. J., 313. +

+ +

+383. Language, Insane, Good Faith.—Unless +the language is used by the bishop +in the line of his duty, a statement that a +priest is irresponsible and insane, that he +was removed from his position of priest for +good reason, and that he has been guilty +of ecclesiastical disobedience, is slanderous + +per se. To make a communication between +a bishop and priest privileged it must have +been spoken in good faith and in belief that +the speaking of it came within the discharge +of the bishop's duty.Hellstern v. Katzer, 103 Wis., 391; 79 N. W., 429. +

+ +

+384. Rector, Bigamy, Tobacco, Liquor.—In +a case where the rector of an Episcopal +church called upon a man charged with +bigamy and after a private conversation the +minister wrote a letter to the district attorney +on behalf of the prisoner, it was held +not privileged because it was not made in +confidence of the relation and was not kept +as a secret.Hills v. State, 61 Neb., 589; 85 N. W., 836. A letter from a church member +of one congregation to the elders of +another congregation advising them of the +unfitness of a clergyman appointed to the +latter parish, and stating that he used tobacco +and liquor, that he was an untruthful +man, and that his family was no credit to +the community, was quasi-privileged; and +in the absence of proof that the charges were +false and malicious was not actionable.Konkle v. Haven, 140 Mich., 472; 103 N. W., 850. +

+ +

+385. Newspapers, Criticisms, Priest.—A +newspaper has a right to publish criticisms +of the conduct of a priest in certain +services held in his church if no false statement + +of facts is given, since such conduct is +a proper subject of discussion; and if such +article contains a statement that if certain +published accounts of the conduct of the +priest are true he acted in an improper manner, +etc., it is not libelous because such facts +are not true, as it is not an affirmation of the +truth thereof. Where the alleged libel was +published in a foreign language and the correctness +of the translation was disputed, it +was an error for the judge to instruct the +jury that if the translation introduced in evidence +was correct, the defendant was liable, +since plaintiff's right to recover should not +be made to depend on the absolute accuracy +of the translation.Klos v. Zahorik, 113 Ia., 161; 84 N. W., 1046. +

+ +

+386. Clergyman, Discipline, Tribunals, +Testimony, Argument.—What a clergyman +says in the administration of the discipline +of the church or what is said in tribunals +to enforce discipline of the church, including +testimony and legitimate argument within +the scope of the case, if said in good faith +and without malice, is not actionable in the +civil courts.Libel and Slander, Townsend, secs. 233, 234; 25 Cyc, +390, 398, 411. +

+ +

+387. Physical Discipline, Imprisonment, +Courts.—A clergyman who claims to have +been slandered by a parishioner can not administer + +physical discipline nor put the +offender under restraint without leaving +himself liable for damages for assault and +battery or false imprisonment. If the clergyman +desires to treat the charge as a +church matter, he must go into the church +tribunal; otherwise, his proper course is to +bring an action for slander in the State +court.Grace v. Dempsey, 75 Wis., 313; 43 N. W., 1127; Grace +v. McArthur, 76 Wis., 641; 45 N. W., 518. +

+ +

+388. Sermon, False Statement, Crime.—A +clergyman may, by words used in a sermon, +slander a member of his congregation. +However, if he makes no false statement +and does not falsely or maliciously charge a +crime, what he says in the way of discipline +is privileged.25 Cyc, 390, 398. The meaning of the words +she is a dirty, vile woman, can not be extended +by innuendo.62 Cen. L. J., 180. +

+ +

+389. Charges, Robbed, Hypocrite.—Charges +that a person has robbed a church +or has stolen from a church, are actionable.Libel and Slander, Townsend, p. 182 (notes). +Also, charging a person with being a hypocrite +and using the cloak of religion for unworthy +purposes, is slanderous.Libel and Slander, Townsend, sec. 177; 25 Cyc, 398; +Edwards v. Bell, 8 Moore, 467. +

+ + + +

+390. Investigation, Probable Cause.—When +a member of a church consents to an +investigation on complaint before a person +who is not a member, if the complaint was +made on probable cause and not under the +pretence of exposing the defendant to scorn +or obloquy, he could not subsequently bring +an action for libel.Remington v. Congdon, 2 Pickering, 315; Bradley v. +Heath, 12 Pickering, 163. +

+ +

+391. Sacraments.—To publish of a person +that he has been deprived of the sacraments +of the church to which he belongs, is +libelous.McConckle v. Binns, 5 Binns, Pa., 340. +

+ +

+392. Obituary, Tolling Bell.—To falsely +and maliciously publish an obituary notice of +a person living, is good ground for an action +for libel.MacBride v. Allis, 9 Rich., S. C., 313. However, a complaint that a +church tolled its bell to announce the death +of a member, and did report him dead when +he was actually living, and that it was all +done for the purpose of annoying, harassing, +and vexing the person and his family, +was held not sufficient to support an action +for libel. The latter case is doubtful law.State v. Riggs, 22 Vt., 322. +

+ +

+393. Newspaper, Profane Swearer.—A +newspaper in a notice of the death of a +church member has the right to state that + +he was a profane swearer, if such was the +case.Commonwealth v. Batchelder, Thach., Mass., Cr. Cas., +191. +

+ +

+394. Business or Property, Special Damages.—A +company incorporated for the purpose +of transacting business which would +include hospitals, schools, and industrial institutions, +may maintain an action for libel +the same as an individual for any words +affecting its business or property, if special +damages are alleged and proved.Shoe & L. v. Thompson, 18 Abbot's Pr., N. Y., 413. +

+ +

+395. Justification, Repeating.—It is no +justification that libelous matter had been +previously published by a third person, that +the name of such person was disclosed at the +time of repeating the libel, and that the person +who was repeating it believed all the +statements in the libel to be true.Sans v. Joerris, 14 Wis., 663. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XXXII. Crimes + +

+396. Sins, Crimes, Discipline.—Crimes +are offenses against the civil law. The fact +that the church organization may try and +punish a member for sinning, or acquit +him, has nothing whatever to do with the +administration of the criminal law of the +State. Therefore, a member may be arrested +and tried for any offense before or +after the ecclesiastical tribunal has taken +action in the matter. But there are certain +crimes of a religious nature of which +the civil law assumes jurisdiction and punishes, +such as blasphemy,5 Cyc, 715; Disorderly Conduct, 14 Cyc, 467. disturbing religious +meetings,14 Cyc, 540. etc. Most of those laws are +statutory and depend wholly upon the +statute of the State where the crime is committed. +

+ +

+397. Profane Language, Smoking, Disturbance.—Rude +behavior or profane language +if audible,Williams v. State, 83 Ala., 78; 3 So., 616. smoking in the church or +during services,Hull v. State, 120 Ind., 153; 22 N. E., 117. cracking and eating nuts + +in church,Hunt v. State, 3 Tex., 116. and fighting near the church so +as to disturb the services, are violations of +the law.State v. Kirby, 108 N. C., 772; 12 S. E., 1045. A father's taking his child out of +the church with violence is a disturbance of +the meeting.Commonwealth v. Sigman, 2 Clark, Pa., 36. The disturbance of any member +of the congregation assembled for religious +worship is a violation of law.State v. Wright, 41 Ark., 410; Tanner v. State, 126 Ga., +77; 54 S. E., 914. A +sentence of $100 fine or one year's imprisonment +in the penitentiary, is not excessive or +cruel or unusual punishment on conviction +for disturbing a meeting.State v. Shepherd, 54 S. C., 178; 32 S. E., 146; 14 Cyc, +467, 540. +

+ +

+398. Sunday-School, Church.—An ordinary +Sunday-school where the Bible and religious +precepts are taught, is a church +within the law.Martin v. State, 65 Tenn., 234. +

+ +

+399. Private School.—A person may be +punished under the statute for wilfully disturbing +a private school kept in a district +schoolhouse for instruction in the art of +writing.State v. Leighton, 35 Me., 195. +

+ +

+400. Disturbing a Religious Meeting.—Under +a statute against disturbing a religious +meeting, it has been held that it should + +define what disturbance is punishable.Marvin v. State, 19 Ind., 181. +Also, mere want of attention or observance +of ceremonies, as standing or kneeling at +times, is not a violation of the law.Brown v. State, 46 Ala., 175. +Neither is singing out of time, unless done +purposely,State v. Turkhaw, 69 N. C., 215. nor performing a proper duty, +such as objecting to a silenced clergyman's +conducting the services.Richardson v. State, 5 Tex. App., 470. +

+ +

+401. Common Law, Offense, Statutory +Law.—If there is no statutory provision, in +those States where the common law prevailed +before the admission of the State to +the Union the offense is punishable under the +common law.U. S. v. Brooks, 4 Cranch, C. C., 427. And even in States where +there is a statutory law on the subject, a +person may be convicted at common law.People v. Crowley, 23 Hun., 412; McLane v. Mallock, +7 Ind., 525. +

+ +

+402. Services, Violation, Time.—The +nature of the services and the discipline of +the denomination may determine whether +there is a violation of the law. Usually the +disturbance may occur at any place the congregation +is assembled, and at any time +when any part of the congregation is assembled +for religious services or business.Kinney v. State, 38 Ala., 224; State v. Lusk, 68 Ind., +264; State v. Edwards, 32 Mo., 548; Tanner v. State, 126 +Ga., 77; 54 S. E., 914. +

+ + + +

+403. Force, Priest, Preserve Order.—A +congregation may use sufficient force to remove +a disturber.MacLean v. Mallock, 7 Ind., 525. A Catholic priest who +is the conductor of religious services and +master of ceremonies within his church has +the right to preserve order and to remove +by force, if necessary, any person who disturbs +his services.Wall v. Lee, 34 N. Y., 141. +

+ +

+404. Interrupt, Liquors, Traffic.—There +are statutes in most of the States making it +a penal offense to interrupt or molest any +assembly or meeting of the people for religious +worship, or to sell intoxicating +liquors or other articles of traffic within a +certain distance of any camp-meeting or +other religious assembly, except at a place +of business regularly established prior to +such meeting or assembly and not with intent +of evading the provisions of the law.Meyer v. Baker, 120 Ill., 567; 12 N. E., 79; Commonwealth +v. Bearse, 132 Mass., 542; 42 Am. R., 450; West v. +State, 28 Tenn., 66; Cramer v. Marks, 64 Pa. St., 151. +

+ +

+405. Theory, Blasphemy, Crime.—On +the theory that the United States is a Christian +nation, blasphemy is held to be a crime.5 Cyc, 713; Commonwealth v. Linn, 158 Pa., 22; 27 +At., 843; 22 L. R. A., 353. +Infidels naturally claim that it interferes +with their rights. However, there is no +more interference with the private rights of + +the infidel than there is with the private +right of the Mormon who is forbidden to +violate the laws of the country by having a +plurality of wives; and it has been held that +any words importing imprecation for divine +vengeance may constitute profane cursing or +blasphemy.Gaines v. State, 75 Tenn., 410; Holcombe v. Cornish, +8 Conn., 375; Bodenheimer v. State, 60 Ark., 10; 28 S. W., +507. +

+ +

+406. Religion, God, Ridicule, Virgin.—Words +vilifying the Christian religion,State v. Chandler, 2 Har., Del., 553. denying +God or the final judgment,Commonwealth v. Kneeland, 37 Mass. (20 Pick), 206. and profane +ridicule of the Holy Scriptures or of +Christ,People v. Ruggles, 8 Johnson, 225. are usually punishable. Also, the +use of vile words applied to the Virgin Mary +is blasphemy.State v. Chandler, 2 Harr., Del., 553. +

+ +

+407. Profanity, Proof, Excuse.—The +profanity must be in the hearing of some +person.State v. Pepper, 68 N. C., 259. Every time a person profanely +swears by taking the name of God in vain is +a separate offense.Odell v. Garnett, 4 Blackf., Ind., 549. The prisoner's confession +is sufficient proof; otherwise the prosecution +must show that the offense was committed +and some one heard the words. +

+ + + +

+Drunkenness is no excuse.People v. Porter, 2 Park, N. Y. Cr., 14. Punishment by +fine or imprisonment is not in violation of +the constitution of the State or of the United +States.State v. Chandler, 2 Harr., Del., 553; Commonwealth +v. Kneeland, Thach., Mass. Cr. Cas., 346. +

+ +

+408. Sunday, Business, Fishing.—The +offenses against the Sunday law are so +numerous that it would be almost impossible +to review them within the limits of this work. +Of course, the carrying on of a man's ordinary +business is a violation of the Sabbath +laws. But in some States selling cigars,Miller v. State, 76 Ind., 310. +a butcher selling meat,Petty v. State, 58 Ark., 1; 22 S. W., 654. and even selling +soda water,Splane v. Commonwealth, 12 At., Pa., 431. and ice cream,Commonwealth v. Keiten, 1 Monag., 368. as well as +fishing, traveling, driving, using a slot machine,Cain v. Daly, 74 S. C, 480; 55 S. E., 110. +and almost every other imaginable +act excepting going to church, has at some +time and in some State been declared a violation +of the law, and a penalty imposed +therefor. +

+ +

+In California,Ex parte Jentisch, 112 Cal., 468; 44 Pac., 803. Tennessee,State v. Lorey, 66 Tenn., 95. and Washington,State v. Krech, 10 Wash., 166; 38 Pac., 1001. +men may be shaved on Sunday. In + +some other States it has been held that running +a barber shop on Sunday is a violation +of the law.People v. Havenor, 149 N. Y., 195; 43 N. E., 541; 3 L. +R. A., 689; State v. Dolan, 13 Idaho, 693; 92 Pac., 995; +14 L. R. A., N. S., 1259. +

+ +

+409. Charity, Necessity, Benefit, Pleasure.—However, +doing works of charity and +works of necessity usually are exempt. +What is a work of necessity is a question of +law. Charity includes whatever proceeds +from the sense of moral duty or a feeling +of kindness and humanity, and is intended +wholly for the purpose of the relief or comfort +of another, and not for one's benefit or +pleasure.Flag v. Inhabitants, 58 Mass., 243; Doyle v. Lynn, 118 +Mass., 195. +

+ +

+410. Contracts, Marriage, Notice.—The +common law made no distinction between +Sunday and any other day as to making contracts, +but it prohibited holding court. In +this country the statutory law invariably +prohibits any but works of necessity or charity +to be done on Sunday. But marriage settlements,Hayden v. Mitchell, 103 Ga., 431; 30 S. E., 287. +publication of statutory notices +on Sunday,Roth v. Hacks, 68 Mo. App., 283. and promises to marry, have +been held legal.Hofer v. Cowan, 55 Cen. L. J., 290. +

+ + + +

+411. Funeral, Physician, Subscriptions.—To +attend a funeral, to employ an undertaker, +or a physician, on Sunday, has been +tested in the courts, and finally decided to +be works of necessity or charity and not a +violation of the Sunday law. Also, subscriptions +made for church purposes and in +works of charity on Sunday have been held +legal and binding.Byrant v. Watson, 127 Ind., 42; 26 N. E., 687; Allen +v. Duffy, 43 Mich., 1; 4 N. W., 427; 11 L. R. A., 63; Dale +v. Knapp, 98 Pa., 389. +

+ +

+412. Jews, Seventh-Day Observers.—In +several of the States it has been held that +Jews and Seventh-Day observers of the Sabbath +must obey the Sunday law.Society v. Commonwealth, 52 Pa., 125; Parker v. State, +84 Tenn., 476. However, +in many States there is a statute expressly +exempting people who keep the seventh +day of the week; but still they sometimes +have a provision, unless he shall wilfully +disturb thereby some other person or +some religious assembly on said day. +

+ +

+413. Societies, Secular Work.—Business +meetings of benevolent and church societies +for benevolent or church work may be held +on Sunday. Even the constitution of such +societies may be amended on Sunday. However, +secular work that does not come strictly + +under the functions of such societies would +be unlawful.McCabe v. Father Matthews, 24 Hun., 149; People v. +Young, 67 Barb., 357. +

+ +

+414. Sunday, Begins, Ends.—Usually +people believe they know what the word Sunday +means, when it begins, and when it +ends. Christianity usually recognizes the +time from midnight to midnight as Sunday, +and that is the usual time recognized +by law.Philadelphia v. Lehman, 56 Md., 209; Kroer v. People, +78 Ill., 294. But the solar day only,Fox v. Abel, 2 Conn., 541. or from +midnight to sunset,Bryant v. Inhabitants, 30 Me., 193; Tracy v. Jenks, 32 +Mass., 465. give us a variety which +may not be complete. Also, we have the +further anomaly of a note made at 2 o'clock +on Saturday night, being held valid.Carpenter v. Crane, 1 Root, Conn., 98. +

+ +

+415. Religious Liberty, Law.—The constitutional +guarantee of religious liberty is +not violated by enforcing the Sunday law.Judefinde v. State, 78 Md., 510; 28 At., 405; 22 L. R. +A., 721, note. +

+ +

+416. Necessaries, Doctor.—As a parent +or husband is obliged to furnish necessaries +for his children and wife, when medical +treatment becomes necessary, he is liable for +manslaughter for failure to do his duty, even +in case of religious disbelief in the efficacy +of medicine. Courts are not inclined to + +make any distinction as to religious belief, +and the prevailing rule in this country is +that the parent is liable if he negligently +allows his child to die when it might have +been saved by the services of a doctor.55 Cen. L. J., 44; 56 Cen. L. J., 261; State v. Cheneworth, +163 Ind., 94; 71 N. E., 197; 59 Cen. L. J., 202. +

+ +

+417. Christian Healer, Consent.—A +Christian healer can not be held liable except +under a State law. One who consents to +treatment has no action for damages unless +there is a failure to exercise the care and +skill of a Christian Scientist. This rule +might not apply to one incompetent to consent +to a contract.Speed v. Tomlinson, 73 N. H., 46; 59 At., 376; 68 L. +R. A., 432. +

+ +

+418. Politics.—A minister who had been +expelled by his congregation for voting the +Democratic ticket, had some of the members +of the church arrested under the election +laws for intimidating a voter. The court +held that as he suffered no pecuniary loss, +personal injury, or physical restraint, no +crime was committed.State v. Rodgers, 128 N. C., 576; 38 S. E., 34. +

+ +

+419. Mail, Obscene Language.—Under +the United States postal laws against sending +obscene, lewd or lascivious books or +papers through the mail, a person can not +be convicted without proof that the matter is + +obscene, lewd, and lascivious, as the word +or should be construed to mean and. +Also, the court held that a newspaper article +on the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception +written in coarse and obscene language +that offended the religious sentiments of the +people, but had no tendency to induce sexual +immorality, did not render the newspaper +unmailable nor the publisher guilty under +the United States statutes. The court says: +Those parts of the article most relied upon +to sustain the charge, though ostensibly a +discussion of a religious subject, are couched +in language not quite suitable for insertion +in a judicial opinion, however well adjusted +to such applause as might be expected from +taste of a certain degree of degradation.U. S. v. Moore, 104 Fed., 78. +

+ +

+420. Fair, Chances, Gambling.—A +church fair at which chances are sold, +drawings had, or any game of chance permitted, +is illegal and may be punished as +gambling.Constant v. Rector, 4 Daly, 1. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XXXIII. Cemeteries + +

+421. Statutes, Land.—There are sufficient +statutory provisions on cemeteries to make a +large book, and the frequent changes made +in such laws render a full statement of the +law impossible. The statutes against locating +cemeteries near cities, dwellings, etc., +should be carefully examined before buying +land therefor.Frederickson v. W. R. Cem. Ass., 133 Wis., 502; 113 +N. W., 1023. +

+ +

+422. United States, Jurisdiction.—The +jurisdiction over the United States cemeteries +is in the State where the cemeteries +are located unless such jurisdiction has been +ceded to the United States.14 Op. Atty-Gen., 27; secs. 4780-4782, U. S. Statutes; +16 Op. Atty-Gen., 13. +

+ +

+423.. Tombstones, Soldiers.—The United +States will erect tombstones at the graves of +soldiers who served in the Civil War, in all +cemeteries where their graves are unmarked. +Wherever the United States has jurisdiction +over cemeteries, it has made it a criminal +offense punishable by fine or imprisonment +to deface a tombstone.20 St. at L., 281. +

+ + + +

+424. Indigent Soldiers, Tombstones.—Most +of the States have statutes providing +for the burial of indigent soldiers and for +putting tombstones at their graves. The +attention of relatives of deceased soldiers +should be called to it. +

+ +

+425. State Authority.—The State Legislature +has authority to control cemeteries or +delegate that authority to some one else, +and afterward to transfer it to a different +person.Sohier v. Trinity Ch., 109 Mass., 1; City v. Town, 82 +Wis., 374; 52 N. W., 425. +

+ +

+426. Maryland, Two Acres.—Although +the declaration of rights of the State of +Maryland restricted the sale of lands for a +cemetery for a church to two acres, the +Legislature has power to grant leave to a +cemetery association to take title to more land. +And where the trustees bought twelve acres +of land for a burial ground and a subsequent +act of the Legislature authorized the enlargement +of the cemetery not to exceed +twenty-five acres, the title to the excess of +the valid purchase was ratified and the title +vested in the trustees.Trustees v. Manning, 72 Md., 116; 19 At., 599. +

+ +

+427. Consent, Application.—Where a +statute provides that no cemetery shall be +laid out without first obtaining the consent +of the municipal authorities thereto, a written + +communication signed by the officers of +an incorporated society is sufficient application; +and a motion granting consent adopted +by the city council is sufficient action on its +part to comply with the statute.Porch v. St. Bridget's, 81 Wis., 599; 51 N. W., 1007. +

+ +

+428. Charter, Ground, Members.—An +application for a charter to incorporate a +cemetery need not specifically locate the +ground.In re Highland, 4 Pa. Dist. Rep., 653. The charter or the articles of incorporation, +or by-laws made under them, +generally determines who shall be members +of the corporation. And where every owner +of a lot signing the constitution and by-laws +becomes a member, the trustees can not vote +on the unsold lots.Commonwealth v. Fisher, 7 Phil., 264; Bourland v. +Springdale, 158 Ill., 458; 42 N. E., 86. +

+ +

+429. Police Power, Trespass, Burial.—Under +our laws the State, by reason of its +police power, has control over the cemeteries +within it. However, that power has generally +been very favorably exercised. Laws +both civil and criminal have been enacted +to protect cemeteries from invasion and trespass +and to protect tombstones from injury.City v. Watson, 56 N. J. L., 667; 24 L. R. A., 843; 49 +Cen. L. J., 307. +When authorized by the Legislature a city +may make a by-law prohibiting burial within +its limits, notwithstanding that the cemetery + +has been constantly used for over one hundred +years.Coates v. City, 7 Cowan, N. Y., 585; Humphrey v. +Frost, 109 N. C., 132; 13 S. E., 793; City v. Austin, 87 +Tex., 330; 28 S. W., 528; 47 Am. St. R., 114. Also, the city has authority +to protect and regulate the use of a cemetery.Stockton v. City, 42 N. J. Eq., 531; 9 At., 203; First v. +Meyers, 5 Okla., 819; 50 Pac., 70; 38 L. R. A., 329. +

+ +

+430. Dwelling, Limits.—Most of the +States provide that no cemetery shall be laid +out within a certain limit of a dwelling. +But after the cemetery is established a man +can not have it moved when he puts up a +dwelling within the limits or where he consented +to the cemetery at the time it was +established.Steams v. Manchester, 63 N. H., 390; Henry v. Trustees, +48 Ohio, 671; 30 N. E., 1122. +

+ +

+431. Well, Pollution.—And where a man +had built a dwelling near a cemetery, it was +not good ground for him to prevent the enlargement +of the cemetery by showing that +it might destroy his well. The court questions +whether there is any legal ground for +complaint for the pollution of subterranean +waters when caused by the proper use without +negligence of the adjacent premises.Upjohn v. Board, 46 Mich., 542; 9 N. W., 845. +Additional lands may be obtained under the +law of eminent domain by condemnation.Edwards v. Stonington, 20 Conn., 466. +

+ + + +

+432. Exempt, Execution, Mortgage.—The +statutes in most of the States exempt +the tombstones and lots in a cemetery from +sale on execution.Oakland v. People, 93 Tex., 569; 57 S. W., 27; 55 L. +R. A., 503. Also, a cemetery lot +can not be sold under mortgage after bodies +have been buried therein, as any one may be +arrested for desecration of graves.Louisville v. Nevin, 73 Ky., 549; First v. Hazel, 63 +Neb., 844; 89 N. W., 378. +

+ +

+433. Public, Regulation.—The right to +bury in a public cemetery is a privilege or +license that is subject to municipal regulation, +and revocable whenever the public +necessity requires it.Page v. Simons, 63 N. H., 17. +

+ +

+434. Nuisance, Public Health, Disease.—A +cemetery is not a nuisance per se, but +if it is proved that the burial of dead bodies +in a certain cemetery does injure the public +health and is a fruitful source of transmission +of disease, the State may prohibit such +burial at certain places within cities or adjacent +to dwellings. But unless authorized +by the Legislature a council has no right by +ordinance to provide that no one shall be +buried within half a mile of any habitation +or public thoroughfare.Wygant v. McLaughlin, 39 Or., 429; 64 Pac., 867; 54 +L. R. A., 636; 53 Cen. L. J., 48. And where the + +Legislature authorized a city to remove the +bodies interred and allow streets through +the land, it had authority to do so.Trustees v. Manning, 72 Md., 116; 19 At., 599; Close +v. Glenwood, 107 U. S., 466; 2 Sup. Ct. R., 267; 27 L. Ed., +408; Matter of Bd. of Street Opening, 133 N. Y., 329; 31 +N. E., 102; 28 Am. St. R., 640; 16 L. R. A., 180. +

+ +

+435. Devise, Easement, Rules.—The +general rule of law is that a man can not +devise away a cemetery lot in which members +of his family are buried. He owns only +a license or at the most an easement which +is subject to the rules of the cemetery association +and the police power of the State. +However, there are some exceptions.In re Waldron, 26 R. I., 84; 58 At., 453; 67 L. R. A., +118; Wright v. Hollywood, 112 Ga., 884; 38 S. E., 94; 52 +L. R. A., 621. +

+ +

+436. Conditions.—A condition in a deed +that the lot can not be sold, assigned, or +transferred without consent of the cemetery +corporation, is as good and binding as in any +other conveyance of real estate.Perkins v. Mass., 138 Mass., 361. +

+ +

+437. Inherits, Right.—Where a son inherits +from his father the right to burial in +a cemetery lot, he has the right to remove +and inter therein the bodies of his grandmother +and sister who had been buried elsewhere.Wright v. Hollywood, 112 Ga., 884; 38 S. E., 94. +

+ + + +

+438. Certificate.—A certificate was issued +for the burial of Dennis Coppers in the +following form: +

+ + + +Office of Calvary Cemetery, +New York, December 1, 1873. + + +

+RECEIVED from Mr. Dennis Coppers, +seventy-five dollars, being the amount of +purchase money of a plot of ground 8 feet +by 8 feet, in Calvary Cemetery. +

+ + +D. BRENNAN, +Superintendent of Calvary Cemetery. + + +

+4 Graves, 5, 6, 7, 8, Plot D, Section 7, +Range 35. +

+ + +

+439. Freemason, Title, Right.—Prior to +1879, the mother, wife, and other relatives +of Coppers, who were Roman Catholics, +were buried in the lot covered by the deed +given in the last paragraph. Coppers, who +was a Freemason, died in August, 1879, and +his funeral services were held under the +auspices of the Masons from an Episcopal +church, as directed in his will. The rules +and doctrines of the Church forbid the +burial in consecrated ground of the body of +one who was not a Roman Catholic or who +was a member of the Masonic fraternity. +The Church authorities refused to allow +Coppers to be buried in the cemetery, and +application was made by his relatives for a + +writ of mandamus to compel his interment +therein, they having deposited the necessary +money to pay all the expenses. The court +held that the certificate delivered to Coppers +was not a conveyance nor a grant and did +not vest title to the land in him, and that the +cemetery could not be compelled to execute +and deliver to him an absolute conveyance of +the lot. His only right under the certificate +was the use of the lot for burial purposes +subject to and in conformity with the established +rules and by-laws of the corporation +in so far as they were not in violation of +any law. It is the tacit understanding, +when a person applies for a burial lot in a +cemetery of the Catholic Church, that he is +either a Catholic and as such is eligible to +be buried therein, or that he applies in behalf +of those who are in communion with +the Church.People v. Trustees, 21 Hun., 184; McGuire v. St. Pat. +C. C., 3 N. Y. Sup., 781; Baltimore v. Manning, 72 Md., +116; 19 At., 599. +

+ +

+440. Lots, Fee.—If the cemetery association +sells 400 lots to one man and makes +a conveyance in fee thereof, it is bound +thereby.Palmer v. Cypress, 122 N. Y., 429; 25 N. E., 983. +

+ +

+441. Deed, Privilege, Heirs and Assigns.—No +formal deed is necessary to confer exclusive +right to the use of a cemetery lot for + +burial purposes.Conger v. Weyant, 55 Hun., 605. And certificates of lots +issued by a corporation convey no title to +the land, as they are not in the form necessary +to constitute a conveyance of land. +Their only effect is to grant the privilege of +interment so long as the ground continues +to be used for the purposes of burial.Baltimore v. Manning, 72 Md., 116; 19 At., 599. A +deed of a cemetery lot to him, his heirs, and +assigns forever, gives only an easement in +the freehold, and does not give title to the +soil, and is subject to changes made necessary +by altered circumstances.Went v. Methodist, 80 Hun., 266; Adams v. First, 148 +Mich., 140; 111 N. W., 757; 11 L. R. A., N. S., 509. +

+ +

+442. Access, Purposes.—Title to a cemetery +lot gives the right of access to it for +the usual purposes, including putting up +monuments.Lakin v. Ames, 64 Mass., 198. +

+ +

+443. Monuments, Inscriptions, Drunkenness, +Non-Baptized, Strangers.—The +plaintiff obtained from the defendant a deed, +which, among other things, contained the +following conditions: that such lot shall +not be transferred without the consent of +the trustees; shall be subject to the regulations +made, or to be made, in the care and +management of such cemetery by the trustees, +who shall also have the right to prevent + +the erection of offensive and improper monuments +or inscriptions thereon, and shall retain +the right to enter any lot for the removal +of anything objectionable; that no remains +shall be deposited therein for hire; +and that persons dying in drunkenness, duel, +or by self-destruction, non-baptized, non-Catholic, +or otherwise opposed to the Catholic +Church, shall not be therein interred. +The plaintiff had buried his father and one +of his children in the lot, and brought his +wife's remains there for burial. Upon the +arrival of the funeral, two small coffins of +strangers, one of which bore the name John +McDonald, which the grave-digger had +taken up, were at the side of the grave. +There was nothing to show how those bodies +came to be buried there. The plaintiff +brought suit for damages against the cemetery +association. The court held that the +cemetery association was liable and that the +defense that it was a public charitable organization +could not be sustained.Donnelly v. Boston, 146 Mass., 163; 15 N. E., 505. +

+ +

+444. Use, Forfeited.—When a deed is +made of land for the use of a cemetery only, +it will be forfeited by using it for a school.Rawson v. School, 89 Mass., 299. +

+ +

+445. By-Laws, Member, Burial.—Where +a by-law of a church association provides + +that any member who pays one dollar to +have his name entered in the record shall +be entitled to a burial lot, a member who +had paid one dollar to the committee of the +church before the adoption of such by-law +but had ceased to be a member of +the congregation, has no right to a burial +lot.St. Johns v. Haans, 31 Pa. St., 9. +

+ +

+446. Adverse Possession.—If the original +title to a cemetery is defective, the title +may become good by adverse possession.Dangerfield v. Williams, 26 App., S. C., 508. +

+ +

+447. Improvements.—The owner of a +lot, unless some rule of the cemetery association +or law of the State is to the contrary, +may improve it as he sees fit so long +as he does not injure the property rights of +another.Silverwood v. Latrobe, 68 Md., 620; 13 At., 161. +

+ +

+448. Trespass, Injunction.—An action +for damages quara clausum fregit, can be +maintained by a relative against any one +who trespasses upon a grave of a person +lawfully interred.Bessimer v. Jenkins, 111 Ala., 135; 18 So., 565; 66 Am. +St. R., 26. Also, a relative may +enjoin by suit in equity, on behalf of himself +and others equally interested, interference +with graves in his cemetery lot.Davidson v. Reed, 111 Ill., 167; 53 Am. R., 613; Boyce +v. Kalbough, 47 Md., 334. +

+ + + +

+449. Roads, Alleys.—Most of the laws +relating to highways apply to cemetery +roads and alleys, excepting that when a +road or alley in a cemetery is vacated the +land reverts to the cemetery instead of becoming +parts of the adjoining lots.Burke v. Wall, 29 La. Ann., 38; Seymour v. Page, 33 +Conn., 61; Perkins v. Mass., 138 Mass., 361. In +most of the States a road can not be laid +out through or take a part of a cemetery.Hyde Park v. Oakwoods, 119 Ill., 141; 7 N. E., 627; +Matter of Bd. of Street Opening, 133 N.Y., 329; 31 N. E., +102; 28 Am. St. E., 640 L. R. A., 180. +But a public highway may be established +through a cemetery by user, the same as +over other lands.Eastern v. City of Louisville, 13 Ky. L. Rep., 279; 15 +S. W., 1117. +

+ +

+450. Abandoned, Bodies.—When a cemetery +has been abandoned, those who have +relatives buried there may incorporate it for +preservation.Burke v. Wall, 29 La. Ann., 38; Appeal of Gumbert, +110 Pa. St., 496; 1 At, 437. Also, a corporation may +change its cemetery and remove the bodies +interred therein.In re Reformed, 7 Howard's Pr., 476; Scoville v. MacMahon, +62 Conn., 378; 26 At., 479. +

+ +

+451. Two-Family Lot, Control.—Where +a lot is owned jointly by two families, one +burying in the north half and the other in +the south half, the family burying in the +north half can not prevent the burial of a + +member of the other family in the south half, +if entitled to be buried in that cemetery.Antrim v. Malsbury, 43 N.J. Eq., 288; 13 At., 180. +

+ +

+452. Burying Dogs, Removal.—A person +who has a lot in a cemetery has no right +to bury any but human bodies therein, and +one who has buried a pet dog in her lot may +be compelled to remove it.Hertle v. Riddell, Ky., 106 S. W., 282; 15 L. R. A., N. +S., 796. +

+ +

+453. Stranger, Protest, Kin.—One member +of a family can not authorize the burial +of a stranger in a family lot where his +parents are buried and against the protest of +any other relative of equal or nearer degree +of kin.Lewis v. Walker, 165 Pa. St., 30; 30 At., 500. When an owner of a lot has consented +to the burial of a body therein, he +can not afterward remove the body or deface +the tombstone, and to do so would be a criminal +offense.State v. Wilson, 94 N. C., 1015. When a lot is sold to one person, +the cemetery association has the right +to limit interments to members of the family +owning the lot. However, where there is +nothing concerning it in the laws or rules of +the association, it might be different.Farelly v. Metairie, 42 La. Ann., 28; 10 So., 386; Commonwealth +v. Maria, 2 Weekly Notes Cases, 244. +

+ +

+454. Association, Bishop, Stipulation, +Certificate, License, Revocable.—The Germans +of Cincinnati formed an association + +and purchased ten acres of land for a cemetery +for German immigrants, their families, +and relatives, of Cincinnati and its vicinity, +who might be members of the Catholic +Church and in accordance with the doctrine, +discipline, usage, and ceremonies of the +same. They incorporated with fifteen trustees +to be elected annually. Before he would +bless the cemetery, the bishop required and +the committee stipulated with him in writing +the following: That the rules of the Catholic +Church should always be faithfully observed +in this chiefly: First, that no one +should be buried in the ground who had not +been baptized or who died out of communion +of the Catholic Church, to which the +bishop or in his absence the clergy of the +German Catholic Church or churches, +should be the judge; second, that no poor +person should be denied a place therein because +his parents were unwilling to pay; +third, that any money accrued from the +ground should be expended for pious uses +and specifically for the relief of the German +Catholic poor; fourth, that the remains of +persons interred in Catharine Street burial-ground +might be removed to the new +ground. The bishop subsequently closed +the cemetery as a place for burial of Catholics +because the congregation had violated + +the stipulation: First, by admitting those +to burial who died out of the communion of +the Catholic Church; second, by refusing to +poor persons the right of burial; third, by +expending the funds of the association in +other than pious uses and relief of the poor. +The court held that the corporation had authority +to determine that the cemetery +should continue to be used as such, but the +conditions might be enforced by any one interested.Hullman v. Honcomp, 5 Ohio St., 237. +Also the question was brought +before the court in a case where a man had +fallen away from the Church, and the court +held that the certificate was a mere license +giving no property rights, and revocable; +and that the question as to whether the party +to be buried therein was in communion with +the Church, was one over which the Church +itself had exclusive jurisdiction.MacGuire v. St. Patrick's, 54 Hun., 207. +

+ +

+455. Rules, Diocese.—One who buys the +privilege of burying his dead in a cemetery +acquires no general right of property, but +only a right to use the grounds as a place of +interment, and the rules governing a cemetery +in force at the time the privilege is +acquired measure the extent of the use. +Where a rule of the church having charge +of the cemetery forbids the burial of non-Catholics + +therein, the bishop of the diocese +and the local priest, who according to the +usage of the church were vested with control, +had authority and power to restrain a +holder of a lot from interring the body of +his son who was not in communion with the +church at the time of his death, and who +committed suicide.Dwenger v. Geary, 113 Ind., 106; 14 N. E., 903; Nance +v. Busby, 91 Tenn., 303; 15 L. R. A., 801. +

+ +

+456. Negroes, Indians.—The fact that a +man is a negro, Indian, or other racial +human being, is not good ground to prevent +his burial in a cemetery.Mt. Maria v. Commonwealth, 81 Pa. St., 235; 22 Am. +Rep., 743; Cemetery Co. v. Walker, 29 Ky. L. R., 1252; +97 S. W., 34; 7 L. R. A., N. S., 155. +

+ +

+457. Will, Body, Custody.—Where no +disposition of a body has been made by will, +the surviving husband, or wife, or next of +kin, has the right to the body for the purpose +of burial. But the right of the surviving +wife or husband, if they were living together +at the time of the death of deceased, +is paramount to that of the next of kin.Larson v. Chase, 47 Minn., 307; 50 N. W., 238; 14 L. +R. A., 85; 28 Am. St. R., 370; Pettigrew v. P., 207 Pa., 313; +56 At., 878; 64 L. R. A., 179. A +right to the custody of the body of a deceased +relative and to decide upon the final +place of burial where the deceased is unmarried, + +is in his next of kin, and this right +will be protected by the courts.McEntee v. Bonacum, 66 Neb., 651; 92 N. W., 633; 66 +L. R. A., 440. +

+ +

+458. Non-Residence, Burial.—Non-residence +does not divest a person of the right +to burial with his relatives.Hook v. Joyce, 94 Ky., 450; 22 S. W., 651; 21 L. R. +A., 96. +

+ +

+459. State, Vacate, Equity, Rule.—The +State may require the removal of the bodies +and vacate a cemetery without compensation +to lot owners in some extraordinary cases of +eminent domain or as a health measure.Columbus v. C., 82 Wis., 334; 52 N. W., 425; 16 L. R. +A., 695; Mt. Hope v. Boston, 158 Mass., 509; 33 N. E., +695; 35 Am. St. R., 515; Kincaid's Appeal, 66 Pa. St., 411; +5 Am. R., 377; Bessimer v. Jenkins, 111 Ala., 135; 56 Am. +St. R., 26; 18 So., 565. +Courts of equity exercise some discretion in +cases that do not fall within this rule.Wilson v. Reed, 68 At., 37, N. H.; Wormley v. Wormley, +207 Ill., 411; 60 N. E., 865; 3 L. R. A., N. S., 481. But +the superintendent of a cemetery has no +right to remove a child without the consent +of the father who owns the lot.Thirkfield v. Mountain, 12 Utah, 76; 41 Pac., 564; +Wright v. Hollywood, 112 Ga., 884; 38 S. E., 94; 52 L. R. +A., 621. +

+ +

+460. Consent, Bishop, Removal.—With +the consent of deceased's husband before the +funeral, the father of deceased paid for the +lot in which his daughter wished to be +buried with her parents. Her mother being +dissatisfied with the location, the lot was + +subsequently exchanged for another in the +same cemetery; but after preliminary arrangements +had been made, the son-in-law +applied to a court of equity for a writ restraining +the father and the bishop from +removing the body. The bishop answered +that he was willing to conform to any order +of the court. The court held that by acceding +to his wife's request and allowing her +father to bury her in the first instance, and +by standing mute while the arrangements +for the removal of the body were being +made, the husband had no right thereafter +to prevent the removal of his wife's body.Toppin v. Moriarty, 59 N. J. Eq., 115; 44 At., 469; 50 +Cen. L. J., 21. +

+ +

+461. Court, Remove, Consent.—In a +proper case a court may grant a decree to +remove the body of a relative from one cemetery +to another.Cohen v. Cong., 99 N. Y. S., 732. Otherwise no one has +the right to exhume or remove a body without +the consent of those having charge of +the cemetery and of those having the right +of burial, as consort or the next of kin. In +some States the offense is a felony.Feeley v. Andrews, 191 Mass., 313; 77 N. E., 766; State +v. McLean, 121 N. C., 589; 28 S. E., 140; 42 L. R. A., 721. In +Nebraska, at least, those who have the legal +right to bury a relative may remove his body + +from one Catholic cemetery to another without +the consent of the bishop.McEntee v. Bonacum, 66 Neb., 651; 92 N. W., 633; 66 +L. R. A., 440. +

+ +

+462. Crime, Fraud, Exhume, Autopsy.—In +an action on an insurance policy where +there is evidence of fraud, as death by +poison, a court may order a body exhumed +for examination, although the person having +the right to control the burial of the body is +not a party to the suit.Mutual, etc., v. Griesa, 156 F., 398. Public officials +have the right to disinter a body to ascertain +whether a crime has been committed.Hayes v. State, 112 Wis., 304; 87 N. W., 1076. But +without a coroner's inquest or consent of the +surviving consort or next of kin, a doctor +has no right to perform an autopsy.14 L. R. A., 85; Young v. College of Physicians, 81 +Md., 358; 32 At., 177; 31 L. R. A., 540; Meyers v. Clarke, +28 Ky. L., 1000; 90 S. W., 1049; 5 L. R. A., N. S., 727. +

+ +

+463. Tort, Corpse.—The general rule is +that an action of tort may be maintained by +the widow or next of kin for the mutilation +of a corpse or even for negligently exposing +it to the elements.Lindh v. Ry., 99 Minn., 408; 109 N. W., 823; 7 L. R. +A., N. S., 1018. In a few cases the right +has been denied.Long v. Ry., 15 Oklahoma, 512; 86 Pac., 289; 6 L. R. +A., N. S., 883; Griffith v. Charlotte, 23 S. C., 25; 55 Am. +Rep., 1. +

+ +

+464. Custodian, Burial, Mutilation.—In +the absence of a widow, a son is the lawful + +custodian of the body of his deceased father +for preservation, representation, and burial, +and may maintain an action for unlawful +mutilation thereof. The sense of outrage +and mental suffering resulting directly from +the wilful mutilation of the body of a parent, +is a proper independent element of compensatory +damages.Koerber v. Patek, 123 Wis., 453; 102 N. W., 40; Thompson +v. State, 105 Tenn., 177; 58 S. W., 213; 80 Am. St. R., +875; 51 L. R. A., 883. +

+ +

+465. Property in a Corpse, Mummy, Executors.—The +question of property in a +corpse has been generally denied. However, +in case of a mummy which has become an +object of curiosity, the case may be different. +Where a testator ordered his body +burned and the executor presented a bill for +£321 for doing so, the court disallowed it on +the ground that when a man is dead his next +of kin or executors have the right to dispose +of his body; but that as it is not property, a +man has no right to bequeath it for a particular +purpose.Williams v. Williams, 20 Ch. Div., 659. Also, where a man was +in jail and died during his imprisonment and +the jailer refused to give up the body until +the debt was paid, the court held that there +was no property in the corpse, and therefore +there could be no lien upon it and he +must surrender it.Reg. v. Fox, 2 Q. B., 246. +

+ + + +

+466. Rights, Duties, Body, Will.—While +there is no property in a dead body so that it +may be sold, there are rights and duties out +of which may arise tort and criminal actions. +The question of the right of a man to dispose +of his body by will is not well settled in this +country.52 Cen. L. J., 141. There are many cases that hold +that a person has the right to make a binding +testamentary disposition of his own body +after death.O'Donnell v. Slack, 123 Cal., 285; 55 Pacific, 906; 43 +L. R. A., 388; Neighbors v. Neighbors, 23 Ky. L., 1433; +65 S. W., 607; Larson v. Chase, 47 Minn., 307; 50 N. W., +238; 14 L. R. A., 85. But on the contrary it has +been held that one can not by his will confer +any right as to the disposition of his body.Enos v. Snyder, 131 Cal., 68; 63 Pac., 170; 82 Am. St. +R., 330; 53 L. R. A., 21. +

+ +

+467. Monument, Fence.—Giving the right +to bury in one's cemetery lot carries with it +the right to erect a monument; but it does not +carry with it the right to fence the cemetery +lot or interfere with other graves therein. +Therefore, the monument must be of such +size and so located and erected as not to interfere +with the rights of others.Thompson v. Deeds, 93 Ia., 228; 61 N. W., 842. +

+ +

+468. Tombstone, Mother-in-Law.—A +husband has the right to remove a tombstone +that his mother-in-law put over his wife's +grave, and put up one of his own choice + +instead.Durrell v. Haywood, 75 Mass., 248. The general rule is that vaults and +tombstones are personal property and may +be removed in good faith and with care +and decency by the next of kin.Boham v. Loeb, 107 Ala., 604; 18 So., 300; Hamilton v. +State, 30 Ind., 482; Partridge v. First, 39 Md., 631; Fletcher +v. Evans, 140 Mass., 24; 2 N. E., 837. +

+ +

+469. Trees, Authority.—It is a criminal +offense to cut trees in a cemetery without +right or authority.Commonwealth v. Viall, 84 Mass., 512. +

+ +

+470. Charitable, Institution, Negligence.—A +Catholic cemetery without capital stock +or shares and paying no profits nor dividends, +does not come under the head of a +charitable institution so as to relieve it from +liability for negligence.Donnelly v. Boston, 146 Mass., 163; 15 N. E., 505. +

+ +

+471. Equity, Repair, Injuries.—A cemetery +association may by bill in equity be +forced to keep walks and drives in good repair +and consequently is liable for injuries +resulting from its negligence.Houston v. Drew, 13 Tex. Cir. App., 536; 36 S. W., 802. +

+ +
+ + + +
+ + +Chapter XXXIV. Miscellaneous + +

+472. Societies, Law.—Religious societies +organized in connection with a church or +congregation are in law civil societies and +not ecclesiastical corporations, and are governed +by the law of the land. Therefore, +the law of fraternities fully covers all questions +that arise in such societies. The subject +is too comprehensive to be treated at any +length here.Robertson v. Bullions, 11 N. Y., 243. +

+ +

+473. Society, Bishop.—A society may +expel a member on due notice and a fair +trial. The refusal of the bishop to recognize +a fraternity organized as a Roman Catholic +society, does not prevent the society and its +officers from exercising the powers of a +religious corporation conferred by law nor +prohibit its members from maintaining their +religious worship.Canadian v. Palmenter, 180 Mass., 415; 62 N. E., 740. +

+ +

+474. Priest, Doorkeeper, Policemen, Arrest.—A +priest who was in charge of a +parish and had control of the temporalities +consisting of pew-rents, Sunday and other + +collections, graveyard, church, school, fees, +and donations, on account of disorderly behavior +of members issued tickets to those +to be admitted and ordered a doorkeeper to +prevent others from entering the church. A +woman without a ticket and talking loudly, +endeavored to force her way into the church, +although there were several policemen on +duty who attempted to stop her. She was +arrested and her husband brought suit for +false imprisonment. The court held that a +clergyman has a right to keep disturbers out +of the church and that the doorkeepers have +a right to use sufficient force to carry out +the orders of the priest; but when a doorkeeper +went beyond those orders by causing +the arrest of the woman, he was not acting +within the apparent scope of his employment +and the priest was not liable.Barabasz v. Kabat, 86 Md., 23; 37 At., 720. +

+ +

+475. Saloon, Church, License.—A man +owned premises that had been occupied as +a saloon from 1894. In 1896 the New York +law prohibiting saloons to be licensed within +200 feet of a church, except places where +liquor traffic had been carried on prior to +that time, was passed. In 1898 a church +was built within 200 feet of the saloon in +question. After the building of the church, +the saloon was vacated for about ten days + +during a change of saloonkeepers, and an +action was brought to revoke the license of +the new saloonkeeper. The court held that +the incidental interruption of the business +did not bring the place within the prohibition +of the law, and that the license could +not be revoked.In re Hawkins, 165 N. Y., 188; 58 N. E., 884. +

+ +

+476. Y. M. C. A.—The Y. M. C. A. on +account of giving lunches, lectures, and +having a gymnasium, for which charges are +made, is not a charitable institution so as to +be exempt from liability in case of negligence. +Property is exempt only when used +for exempt purposes exclusively.Chapin v. Holyoke, 165 Mass., 280; 42 N. E., 1130; Am. +& Eng. Cyc. of L., Taxation. +

+ +

+477. Students, Vote, Residence.—Students +at a seminary studying for the priesthood +do not thereby lose their residence at +their homes and are not entitled to vote +where a college is located. The fact that +they intend to remain for four years, become +clergymen, and then go to wherever they +may be called, does not give them the right +of residence, and there is no distinction between +them and any other students away +from home at school.In re Barry, 164 N. Y., 18; 58 N. E., 12. However, a student +of full age might become a voter in the college + +precinct if he has no other fixed domicile.American Law of Electors, McCrary, sec. 41. +

+ +

+478. My Wife, Anna Jones, Divorce, +Insurance.—A bequest or devise to my +wife, Anna Jones, is not changed by a divorce +without some evidence to prove that +the testator did not intend his divorced wife +to share in his estate, unless the judgment +of divorce made a division of the property. +The same is true of a policy of insurance or +benefit certificate. However, there are exceptions +that weaken the rule and make its +application in some States uncertain.Lansing v. Haynes, 95 Mich., 16; 54 N. W., 699; Baacke +v. Baacke, 50 Neb., 18; 69 N., 303; Jones, Jr., estate, 211 +Pa., 364; 60 At., 915; 69 L. R. A., 940; White v. B. of +A. Y., 124 Ia., 293; 99 N. W., 1071; 66 L. R. A., 164. +

+ +

+479. Bells, Sick, Injunction.—On the +complaint of an injured person, a court will +issue an injunction restraining the ringing +of church, convent, or other bells, at unusual +hours or when their noise is injurious to the +sick, or when their vibration affects other +premises. As the law of nuisances applies +in such cases, an exact statement of when +the court should issue the injunction or +whether the injunction should be temporary +or perpetual, can not be given; but when +the personal or property rights of others + +are affected, an injunction may be granted. +The fact that the bells are chimes or part +of a clock does not change the rule.Rogers v. Elliott, 146 Mass., 349; 15 N. E., 768; Davis +v. Sawyer, 133 Mass., 289; 43 Am. R., 519; Harrison v. +St. Mark's, 12 Phil., 259; Soltau v. DeHeld, 9 Eng. L. & +E., 104; Leete v. Pilgrim Cong. Ch., 14 Mo. App., 590. +

+ +

+480. Marriage, Impediments, Recording.—Legal +marriage may be contracted only +between unmarried persons not related +within the prohibited degrees of consanguinity +or affinity, of lawful age and sufficient +mental and physical capacity. Statutes +vary greatly. In some States affinity is not +considered a legal objection and first cousins +may marry; in others, both are prohibited +and other limitations of relationship, race, +and color are fixed, and registration of the +clergymen and licenses to wed are required. +Also, the clergyman must report the marriage +promptly to the proper office. Fines, +penalties, and imprisonment are usually provided +for violating the law. Informal +marriages may or may not be voidable or +void.Osborne v. Osborne, New York, Sept. 12, 1908; Landry +v. Bellanger, 45 So., 956; 15 L. R. A., N. S., 463; Lawson +v. Lawson, 30 Tex. Civ. App., 43; 69 S. W., 246; +Schmitt v. Schneider, 109 Ga., 628; 35 S. E., 145. +

+ +

+481. Charivari, Wedding Pranks.—Charivari, +assaults, and disorderly conduct +are unlawful at all times, and can not be + +justified by custom.14 Cyc, 466. A newly wedded man +who was serenaded (charivaried) by his +neighbors by firing guns, blowing horns, +beating pans, rattling horse-fiddles, etc., +after ordering the rioters off fired into the +crowd and wounded one of them. On trial +for assault with intent to kill, the groom was +acquitted. Shooting might not be justifiable +in cases where less potent agencies, +such as a horsewhip or dogs, are sufficient, +or where the immediate protection of person +or property does not call for it. The law +should be invoked when no exigency for +force exists.Minagham v. State, 77 Wis., 643; 46 N. W., 894; Gilmore +v. Fuller, 198 Ill., 130; 65 N. E., 84. +

+ +

+482. Infallibility of Courts.—When a +question of law at issue in a case is duly +presented to a supreme court which is the +court of last resort, its decision thereon becomes +the law of the case and is thereafter +binding upon the court itself and all +the courts inferior to it; and no matter how +often that identical case may come before +the court on subsequent appeals, the questions +already decided therein will not be reconsidered. +It is interesting to compare this +principle of our courts with Papal + +infallibility.Am. & Eng. Ency. of L., Stara decisis, Res judicata; +67 Central L. Journal, 255; Pautz v. Plankinton, +126 Wis., 37; 105 N. W., 482; Whittaker v. Mich. M. L. +Ins. Co., 83 N. E., 899. Courts do not always adhere to the +rule.Bonacum v. Murphy, 71 Neb., 463; 104 N. W., 180. +

+ +

+483. Money Stolen, Bailed or Loaned, +Insolvency, Gifts.—Property stolen by A. +or left with him as bailee to be returned in +specie, can not be given away by him for +charity. Also, when a man is insolvent he +has no right to give away any of his property.U. S. Bankruptcy Act, sec. 1, sub-sec. 25. +That has been the rule of law since +Coke laid down the maxim: A man must +be just before he is generous. One is insolvent +when his debts exceed the value of +his unexempt property.20 Cyc, 457. When an insolvent +debtor makes a gift, a creditor may +sue and recover from the donee; or in a +proper case the creditor may force the +debtor into bankruptcy to recover the gift.20 Cyc, 1243; Insolvent Corporations, Wait, sec. 637. +The want of knowledge or good faith of the +donee is immaterial and no defense to an +action to recover the property.20 Cyc, 469. +

Farley, + +[cross] _Archbishop of New York_. + +NEW YORK, January 15, 1909. + +COPYRIGHT, 1909, BY BENZIGER BROTHERS. + + + + + +PREFACE + + +The three learned professions, medicine, law, and theology, overlap; and a +man who does not know something of the other two can not be prominent in +his own. Laws relating to Church matters are scattered through such a vast +array of law books that it would be a burden for a clergyman to purchase +them, and without special training he would not know where to look for the +law. Therefore a law compendium covering those subjects relating to Church +matters must be of great value to a clergyman. + +There is another view of this subject. When she was mistress of the world +the laws of the Roman Empire were for the Roman citizens, particularly the +patricians; the canon law was the law of the Christian people of conquered +countries and the Christian plebeians of Rome. In the United States we +have the same common law for the President and the hod-carrier, for the +multimillionaire and the penniless orphan, for the clergy and the laity. +Consequently, in this practical age a knowledge of the law of the country +with which the clergy come constantly in contact is expedient, if not +necessary. + +The poet says: + + + "What constitutes a state?... + Men, who their duties know, + But know their rights, and knowing, dare maintain." + + +To insure harmony and good order, every Church should obey the laws of the +country; but if any law should impose upon the rights of the Church in any +way, the ruling authorities, the cardinal and bishops, if the wrong is +national, should unite in a petition to the United States Congress, +clearly stating the grievance and asking for its redress.(1) If the +grievance should be within a State, the bishop or bishops of the State +should present the matter to the Legislature of the State. If the +President or the Governor has authority to remedy the matter, go direct to +him. Such was the practice of the wisest of the Popes.(2) The author never +knew of an instance in which a clergyman having a real grievance failed in +obtaining a full and fair hearing from the powers that be, from the +President downward. This method seems to be more in harmony with the +relations of Church and State in a free government, and more intelligent +than to have a convention of working men, who have little time to make a +study of Church matters, pass resolutions, the passing of which generally +ends the action of a convention. + +In the chapters that follow, the author has refrained from giving a great +multitude of authorities, but has endeavored to give such as are +sufficient to sustain the text. For example, under the first section, and +many others, a list of citations covering several pages might be given. +That would add to the expense of the volume and would not be within its +compass. The book will better fulfil its purpose by clear, brief +statements of the rules of law, and if a reader desires to investigate +further, the citations given will guide his way. + +CHARLES M. SCANLAN. + +MILWAUKEE, JANUARY 23, 1909. + + + + + +CHAPTER I. INTRODUCTION + + +*1.* _Law, Religion._--From the dawn of the science of law it has been +influenced by religion or antagonism to religion. This is very evident in +the ancient laws of Babylonia, Egypt, Phenicia, Israel, India, and +Ireland. It would be impossible to make a study of the law of any of said +countries without gaining a knowledge of its religious system, whether +pagan or otherwise.(3) + +*2.* _Religions._--Ancient nations might be classified into pagan and those +that worshiped the universal God. However, some of the nations at one time +were pagan and at other times had a fair conception of the supernatural. +Also, in Egypt, the class of higher culture and education believed in the +one omnipotent and omniscient Being, but the populace, who could be +controlled more readily by flattering them in their notions and giving +their childish conceptions full sway, worshiped idols.(4) + +*3.* _Authority, Right._--In those nations where the ruling authority had +the proper conception of the Almighty, there was a strong, persistent +growth of law upon the basis of natural right; while in the pagan nations +laws were arbitrary and despotic.(5) + +*4.* _Philosophical Foundations._--The laws of Greece, down to the time of +Plato, were thoroughly pagan. But, following the philosophical foundations +laid by Plato and Aristotle, unintentionally and unwittingly the laws of +Greece became imbued with the spirit of natural law.(6) + +*5.* _Rome, Natural Justice._--Prior to the introduction of Grecian law +into Rome, the laws of that nation were pagan. Grecian law from its +introduction to the time of Octavius was the civilizing element of the +empire. Then it took a turn for the worse, the element of natural justice +being reduced and the element of arbitrary rule becoming dominant.(7) + +*6.* _Canon Law._--We will now turn to the first period of canon law, which +covers the early history of the Church up to the reign of Constantine the +Great.(8) + +Canon law is composed of the following elements: + + + 1. Holy Scriptures; + 2. Ecclesiastical tradition; + 3. Decrees of Councils; + 4. Bulls and rescripts of Popes; + 5. The writings of the Fathers; + 6. Civil law.(9) + + +*7.* _Early Christians._--Owing to the persecutions, the early Christians +were, in a sense, isolated from the State; they held their property in +common, and were governed in matters among themselves by the canon law. +However, for want of freedom of discussion and publication, they were +unable, even within a single nation of the empire, to promulgate a system +of canon law. The foundation of canon law being laid, its development upon +the manumission of the Church was rapid.(10) + +*8.* _Persecutions, Defenses._--During the religious persecutions the +Christians almost had law forced into them by surgical operations. The +necessity for their making defenses in the Roman tribunals induced many of +them to give Roman law a careful study. Also, the great number of +Christians held for trial on all sorts of accusations made that branch of +the law of the realm very lucrative for lawyers, and called into the field +many Christians. Incidently, men studying for the priesthood made a study +of Roman law with a view to avoiding its machinations and continuing their +functions as clergymen without being caught in the net of persecution.(11) + +*9.* _Constantine, Blending the Law._--When Emperor Constantine became a +Christian (325 A.D.), there was a great change, and the members of the bar +and judges were mostly Christians. It then became necessary for students +of law to study the principles of divine right as taught in the Church, +and while the books of the civil law were read by students for the +priesthood, the Scriptures and the works of the Fathers were read by the +students in law, thus blending the law of the two realms to some +extent.(12) + +*10.* _"__Benefit of the Clergy,__"__ Ecclesiastical Court._--As the old +Roman Empire decayed and its power waned, the new one, "The Holy Roman +Empire," gradually implanted itself in southwestern Europe. The +humiliation that the divine law and the clergy suffered in being brought +into the common courts gave rise to a system of courts within the Church +for the purpose of enforcing her morals, doctrines, and discipline. Those +courts were established in all Christian countries and had jurisdiction of +all felonies excepting arson, treason, and a few other crimes that from +time to time were put under the special jurisdiction of the state courts. +Whenever a clergyman was arrested for a crime, he pleaded the "benefit of +the clergy," and his case was transferred from the state court to the +ecclesiastical court. Also, when a clergyman was convicted in the state +court of any crime for which the punishment was death, he could plead the +"benefit of the clergy," which was a protection against his execution.(13) + +*11.* _Estates, Guardianship._--Besides the jurisdiction already referred +to, the ecclesiastical court had jurisdiction over the settlement of +estates and the guardianship of children, which varied in different +countries and was very indefinite in some of them.(14) + +*12.* _Middle Ages, Common Law._--During the Middle Ages there was a +constant effort on behalf of the ecclesiastical courts to extend their +jurisdiction, and a counter-effort on behalf of the state courts to assume +jurisdiction of cases under the ecclesiastical law. In England, from the +conquest of William the Conqueror to the Reformation, the extension of the +jurisdiction of the ecclesiastical courts brought the new element of +English common law into the canon law; and much of the canon law, +following the jurisdiction assumed by the state courts, became the common +law of the kingdom of England.(15) + +*13.* _Gratian, Reformation._--The canon law reached its full development +in the twelfth century, when Gratian, the Blackstone of his age, compiled +the system, but it subsequently lost its influence when the Reformation +prevailed.(16) + +*14.* _Bologna._--The great school of jurisprudence, both of canon and +civil law, was located at Bologna, Italy, which reached its zenith in the +thirteenth century. To it students flocked from Western Europe, and from +it were obtained the professors of law in the universities of England and +other countries.(17) + +*15.* _Church and State._--In most of the Christian countries, the Church +and State were united, and many of the judges in the civil courts were +clergymen.(18) + +*16.* _England, Roman Law._--On account of England's being subject to Rome +in its earliest age, and afterward because of its being conquered by +France, the Roman law was pretty thoroughly intermixed with the native +English law in the minor matters of the people, and governed in the more +important ones.(19) + +*17.* _America, English Law, Civil Law._--The portions of America that were +settled by the English, which included the original thirteen colonies, +were under the English law. In Virginia the Episcopal Church, which was +then the church of England, was made the church of state. Canada and that +portion of the United States formerly known as Louisiana were governed by +the civil law of France. Wherever the French government had no authority +or civil officers, the government was directly under the missionaries of +the Church.(20) + +*18.* _Religious Tolerance, Established Church._--The English law and +English ideals prevailing in the original thirteen colonies,(21) there was +a strong effort made by many of the delegates to the constitutional +convention to have the Episcopal Church made the established church of the +new republic. Thomas Jefferson and James Madison were probably the +strongest opponents of the scheme, and outside of the great Carroll of +Carrollton, they were the most earnest advocates of religious tolerance. +The necessity for the fathers of this republic to be united, and their +being unable to unite upon any church, caused the idea of an established +church to be eliminated. Thus was established in our republic the freedom +of conscience and the guarantee that no one shall be persecuted on account +of his religious convictions.(22) + +*19.* _Tribunals._--The ecclesiastical courts as a part of the state system +and the "benefit of the clergy," have been abolished in England and +America. However, as we shall see further on, tribunals in the nature of +the ecclesiastical court exist in churches and fraternities of all kinds +in the United States.(23) + + + + + +CHAPTER II. WHAT IS A CHURCH? + + +*20.* _Church, Religious Society._--Bouvier's definition of "Church" is: "A +society of persons who profess the Christian religion." Chief Justice +Shaw's definition is: "The church is neither a corporation nor a +quasi-corporation, but a body of persons associated together for certain +objects under the law. An aggregate body of individuals associated +together in connection with a religious society. The term religious +society may with propriety be applied in a certain sense to a church as +that of religious association, religious union, or the like; yet in the +sense church was and is used in our law, it is synonymous with parish or +precinct and designates an incorporated society created and maintained for +the support and maintenance of public worship. In this, its legal sense, a +church is not a religious society. It is a separate body formed within +such parish or religious society whose rights and usages are well known +and to a great extent defined and established by law."(24) + +*21.* _Doctrine, Constitution._--A church in law is a mere fraternal +organization. It may or may not have a written constitution, but it must +have some central doctrine as its foundation or constitution.(25) Many of +the Protestant denominations claim that the entire Bible is their +constitution. The Jews may be said to consider the Old Testament as their +constitution. All revealed truths may be said to be the constitution of +the Catholic Church,(26) and when a doctrine concerning faith or morals is +authoritatively declared by the Church to be a truth, it becomes a +dogma.(27) The Apostles' Creed is an example of several dogmatic truths. +The code of the Church is the Ten Commandments. A few sects, by a majority +vote, make and change their constitutions at will. + +*22.* _By-Laws._--By-laws of the different religious organizations differ +widely, from the decrees of the great councils of the Catholic Church down +to the vote of the congregation of an independent denomination. + +*23.* _Church, Religious Society._--A church in one sense is more limited +than a religious society; the latter comprehending all the members of the +same faith. Even in the Catholic Church we hear of the Church of France, +the Coptic Church, etc., spoken of in this sense. And in a still more +limited sense we use the word as a synonym for parish. However, when the +word "the" is used before church written with a capital letter, Catholics +understand it to apply to the Roman Catholic Church in its entirety, while +some non-Catholics apply it to Christendom. + +*24.* _Church, Christians, Religion._--The missions established in +California prior to its admission into the Union were, in law, practically +independent organizations and had no legal connection with the Church. +Every society organized for the purpose of propagating the practice of +religion may be a church in law.(28) The courts have made a distinction +between Unitarians, who are considered Christians, and Deists, Theists, +Free Religionists, and other infidels.(29) A sect or denomination without +a given system of faith is not recognized as a religion in law.(30) + +*25.* _Doctrine, Standard._--To ascertain the tenets and doctrines of a +church, resort must be had to history and to prior and contemporary +standard writings of its members on theology.(31) + +*26.* _Ecclesiastical Corporations, Religious, Quasi-public +Corporations._--Ecclesiastical corporations, in the sense in which the word +is used in England, Germany, and France, are unknown to the United States, +their places being supplied by religious societies or corporations +considered as private bodies, in contradistinction to public or +quasi-public corporations, such as towns, villages, cities, counties, and +state. Therefore, the law of private corporations applies to religious +societies and churches. + +*27.* _Sect, Sectarianism._--The Supreme Court of Nevada defines "sect" as +follows: "A religious sect is a body or number of persons united in +tenets, but constituting a distinct organization or party, by holding +sentiments or doctrines different from those of other sects or people. In +the sense intended in the constitution, every sect of that character is +'sectarian' and all members thereof are sectarians."(32) In Pennsylvania +the court adopted the definitions given in the Standard and in Webster's +dictionaries.(33) The Supreme Court of Missouri, citing Webster's and the +Century dictionaries, gave the following additional definition of +sectarianism: "Sectarianism includes adherence to a distinct political +party, as much as to a separate sect."(34) The Presbyterians(35) and the +"Shakers"(36) have been adjudged sects. + +*28.* _Sectarian._--"Sectarian" has received more contradictory +constructions than any other equally simple word in the English language. +In Wisconsin the "King James" Bible was held to be a sectarian book;(37) +but in Kentucky it was held that neither the Douay nor the "King James" +Bible was a sectarian book.(38) The Missouri court extended sectarian so +as to apply to the Republican party.(39) In Illinois an industrial school +for girls in which the Catholic Sisters were employed as teachers, was +held a sectarian institution;(40) while in Wisconsin, the "Wisconsin +Industrial School for Girls," a private corporation organized and +conducted by Protestant ladies, has received appropriations from the State +and has had its reports published at state's expense, as a non-sectarian +institution.(41) In New York the religious garb of the Catholic Sisters +was practically decided to be sectarian;(42) but in Pennsylvania and +Wisconsin it was decided that the dress of the Sisters was not +sectarian.(43) + +*29.* _Worship, Services, Mass._--Any act of adoration, reverence, praise, +thanks, honor, or veneration given to God, is religious worship.(44) A +Sunday-school where the Bible was read and a hymn sung and a state +temperance camp-meeting where a prayer was said and hymns were sung, were +held to be places of divine worship.(45) But a priest's house where he had +a room fitted up for a chapel, was held to be not a place of worship.(46) +It is very difficult to draw a line--no matter what curves you may give +it--between the Protestant system of worship, which consists of the reading +of the Bible, the singing of hymns, and the reciting of prayers, and such +services in the public schools. Also, there would seem to be no _legal_ +difference between a prayer said or a hymn sung by a Catholic and a +Protestant. As we have no established church in this country, we have no +standard for prayers, hymns, or music.(47) + +More solemn and impressive than her prayers adapted for schools is the +Mass of the Catholic Church, defined thus: "The Mass is the unbloody +sacrifice of the body and blood of Christ."(48) It is defined in 26 Cyc, +940, as follows: "A religious ceremonial or observance of the Catholic +Church;(49) a Catholic ceremonial celebrated by the priest in open church, +where all who choose may be present and participate therein;(50) the +sacrifice in the sacrament of the Eucharist or the consecration and +oblation of the Host."(51) + +*30.* _Parish._--A parish has two meanings. In some States it is a minor +division of public territory; but in States where there is no such +division of territory, the State using instead "county" or "town," a +parish rather applies to the people belonging to a particular church, who +worship at a particular place. It is in the latter sense in which a parish +should be construed in church law.(52) + +_Parishioner._--A parishioner must be defined in harmony with the meaning +of the word "parish."(53) + +*31.* _Clergyman._--A clergyman is a man in holy orders or one who has been +ordained in accordance with the rules of his church or denomination.(54) + +*32.* _Minister._--A minister is one who acts as, or performs some of the +functions of, a clergyman.(55) + +*33.* _Rector or Pastor._--A rector or pastor is a clergyman who has charge +of a parish.(56) + +*34.* _Religion._--Religion is still further distinguished, but not very +satisfactorily defined, for the reason that etymologists have not agreed +upon the derivation of the word. When the matter was brought before our +courts and it became necessary to give a definition, the highest court in +our country gave the following: "The term 'religion' has reference to +one's views of his relations to his Creator, and to the obligations they +impose of reverence for His being and character, and of obedience to His +will. It is often confounded with _cultus_ or form of worship of a +particular sect, but it is distinguishable from the latter."(57) One of +our highest courts held that "religion," as used in the trust provision in +a will for the purchase and distribution of religious books or reading as +they shall be deemed best, means "Christian."(58) But the Supreme Court of +another State held that "religion" is not equivalent to "Christian" +religion, but means the religion of any class of men.(59) Judge Willis +defines "religion" thus: "It is what a man honestly believes in and +approves of and thinks it his duty to inculcate on others whether with +regard to this world or the next; a belief in any system of retribution by +an overruling power. It must, I think, include the principle of gratitude +to an active power who can confer blessings."(60) + + + + + +CHAPTER III. CONSTITUTIONAL LAW + + +*35.* _Religious Tests._--The constitution of the United States provides +that "no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any +office or public trust under the United States."(61) + +*36.* _Test Oath, Attainder._--No test oath of any kind, whether religious +or otherwise, can be required of a citizen of the United States. Therefore +the test oath of Congress requiring an officer to swear that he never +voluntarily bore arms against the United States, was held +unconstitutional. Exclusion from any vocation on account of past conduct +is punishment and contrary to the constitution on the subject of bills of +attainder.(62) But there is a limitation to this rule to prevent the open +violation of the laws of the United States or any State under the cloak of +religion.(63) + +*37.* _Establishment of Religion, Free Exercise._--The first amendment to +the United States constitution provides that "Congress shall make no law +respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise +thereof." + +*38.* _Sovereignty, States, Bigamy._--The courts have held that this +provision applies to Congress only, and can not be construed to interfere +with the sovereignty of the several States; that the constitutional +guarantee of religious freedom was not intended to prohibit legislation +against polygamy; and that section 5352 of the United States Revised +Statutes against bigamy, is constitutional. Also, that on a trial for +bigamy in Utah, a man who was living in polygamy was not competent to +serve as a juror.(64) + +*39.* _Church of the Latter-Day Saints._--In 1851 the assembly of the +so-called State of Deseret, which subsequently became the territory of +Utah, incorporated "the Church of the Latter-Day Saints." In 1887 Congress +repealed the act of incorporation and abrogated the charter, which the +Supreme Court held was within its plenary powers. The pretense of +religious belief can not deprive Congress of the power to prohibit +polygamy and all other open offenses against the enlightened sentiments of +mankind.(65) + +*40.* _Crime, Religion._--The law prohibiting any person who is a +polygamist or bigamist, or who teaches, advises, counsels, or encourages +the same, from holding any office of honor, trust, or profit, is +constitutional; and a crime is none the less so, nor less odious, because +it is sanctioned by what any particular sect may designate as religion. A +state has the right to legislate for the punishment of all acts inimical +to the peace, good order, and morals of society.(66) + +*41.* _Donation, Hostile, Religion._--On the other hand the United States +Supreme Court declared the legal right of donees of a college to make as a +condition of the donation that all ecclesiastics, missionaries, and +ministers of any sort, should be excluded from holding any station of duty +in the college or even visiting the same. The condition being only +negatively derogatory and hostile to the Christian religion, did not make +the devise for the foundation of the college void.(67) + +*42.* _Christian Scientist._--A law requiring a person to be a physician to +treat the sick, is constitutional; and the defense of a person who has no +license to practise, that he is a Christian Scientist, is not good. Also, +a parent must furnish a doctor for his sick child, notwithstanding that he +believes in prayer cure.(68) + +*43.* _Protestant._--In the early days, under the constitution of the +State, the courts of Massachusetts practically held that the Protestant +religion was the religion of that State.(69) Also, the constitution of New +Hampshire referred to different Christians, and the court in construing +the terms "Roman Catholic" and "Protestant," held that any one who did not +assent to the truth of Christianity as a distinct system of religion, +could not be classed as either. The court stated that Mohammedans, Jews, +pagans, and infidels, are neither "Catholics" nor "Protestants." The term +"Protestant," as used in the constitution of New Hampshire, includes all +Christians who deny the authority of the Pope of Rome. When the children +of Protestant parents renounce that religion, and voluntarily accept +another, they cease to be Protestants.(70) At present under the +constitution of New Hampshire, the legislature may authorize towns or +parishes to provide for the support of Protestant ministers.(71) + +*44.* _Hospitals, Sisters, Appropriation._--In 1864, Providence Hospital, +of Washington, was incorporated by an act of Congress, for general +hospital purposes. In 1897, $30,000 was appropriated for the District of +Columbia to put up two isolation buildings in connection with two +hospitals in that city, to be operated as a part of such hospitals. +Providence Hospital was selected as one, and because it was in charge of +Sisters of the Roman Catholic Church, the right of Congress to make the +appropriation was disputed. Among other things, Judge Peackham says: +"Whether the individuals who compose the corporation under its charter +happen to be all Roman Catholics, or all Methodists, or all Presbyterians, +or Unitarians, or members of any other religious organization, or of no +organization at all, is of not the slightest consequence with reference to +the law of its corporation, nor can the individual beliefs upon religious +matters of the various incorporators be inquired into." The appropriation +was "for two hospital buildings to be constructed in the discretion of the +commissioners of the District of Columbia on the grounds of two hospitals +and to be operated as a part of such hospitals."(72) + +*45.* _Constitution, Rights._--The provisions in the constitution do not in +any way interfere with property rights obtained by a church organization +prior to its adoption.(73) + +*46.* _Aid, Contracts._--Under the constitution of the United States, +Congress cannot make appropriations for nor give aid to any denomination. +Also, similar provisions are in many of the constitutions of the States. +However, many cases arise out of contracts which border upon these various +rules, and in some States the constitutional provision of the State is +such that the State Legislature may legislate concerning religion and give +certain aid and support thereto. Paying rent to a congregation for a +school-room is not an appropriation or aid to a church contrary to the +constitution.(74) + +*47.* _Protestant Teacher, Tax._--Formerly every parish in Massachusetts +was obliged to elect and support a Protestant teacher, and might erect +churches and parsonages. To provide the expenses thereof, a tax might be +assessed upon the polls of the inhabitants.(75) Until 1890 New Hampshire +permitted a tax to be levied in towns for religious purposes. It is still +legal under the New Hampshire constitution to tax the inhabitants for the +purpose of supporting Protestant teachers, but not to support a teacher of +any other denomination.(76) A section of land in every township in Ohio +was set apart for religious societies, in which they all shared +equally.(77) Vermont had a similar provision.(78) + +*48.* _Office, God._--The constitutions of Arkansas, Mississippi, North +Carolina, South Carolina, and Texas, prohibit a man from holding office +who denies the existence of a Supreme Being; and the constitutions of +Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, and Tennessee, make all clergymen ineligible +to hold a civil office.(79) + +*49.* _Religious Liberty, Bible, Religious Garb, Wages._--The authorities +are not uniform as to what constitutes a violation of religious liberty. +The question of whether the reading of the Bible in the public schools is +a violation of the constitution, is an open one in some States and in +others the courts have passed upon it, some holding that it is a violation +of the constitution,(80) and some holding that it is not.(81) The weight +of authority seems to permit the reading of the "King James" Bible,(82) +and where portions only are read, as in "reading books" prepared for +school work, or where the children are not obliged to be present during +the exercises, the cases seem to be unanimous that it is not a violation +of the constitution.(83) In Pennsylvania the court held that while Sisters +in their religious garb might be teachers in the public schools, they +could not give instruction in the Catholic religion at the schoolhouse +before or after school hours, or at any other time use the school building +for religious purposes. Also, in Wisconsin the court decided that while a +portion of a parochial school building might be leased for public school +purposes and the Sisters be employed therein as teachers, religious +exercises and instructions could not be given in such leased premises.(84) +In New York it was held not only that Sisters could not wear their +religious garb or pray in school, but that they could not collect wages +for teaching.(85) + + + + + +CHAPTER IV. STATUTORY LAW + + +*50.* _Wisconsin, Mississippi, New York._--The statutory law of the +different States of the Union is so varied and the laws of one State are +of so little interest to the people of another that it would be almost +useless and beyond the boundaries of this work to give the substance of +the various statutes. In some States there is a limitation upon the real +estate that a church or charitable organization may hold, and in other +States there is no limitation whatever. Wisconsin, perhaps, occupies the +extreme of greatest liberality, by not only allowing full freedom in +everything relating to religion and charity, but it further excepts from +the limitation all rights of alienation of real estate granted or devised +to a charitable association or to literary or charitable corporations +organized under the law of the State. The State of Mississippi probably +stands at the other extreme both in the narrowness of its constitution and +statutory law, and prohibits any devise or bequest of any personal +property or real estate in favor of any religious or ecclesiastical +corporation or any religious or ecclesiastical society. Neither does it +exempt a clergyman, physician, or lawyer, from examination as a witness +concerning information that he obtained in the performance of his +functions or duties as such. Its judges, however, are more liberal than +its legislators, and I know of no instance in which a clergyman, +physician, or lawyer, as a witness, was sent to jail for contempt of court +for not divulging information obtained in his professional capacity. +Probably New York has the most complete code(86) relating to religious +corporations. + +*51.* _Real Estate, Parish, Diocese, Taxation._--It is very important that +a congregation about to purchase real estate should examine and understand +the statutory law of the State governing the powers and authority of the +Church as a civil organization. In some States there is no special law for +incorporating religious societies; while in most States there are special +provisions therefor. For this reason, I emphasize the fact that no parish +or clergyman is justified in organizing a congregation or purchasing land +without first knowing the law of that particular State. But generally it +is best that each congregation be incorporated and that its property be +held in the name of the corporation, so that the debts of one corporation +will not embarrass the diocese, and that bequests and gifts made to a +church may be enforced in the courts. The proceedings to incorporate are +fully stated in the statutes of each State. One of the things of the +utmost importance is that any notice to be given must be given strictly as +required by law.(87) Another is to incorporate in the way that avoids +taxation.(88) + +*52.* _Riot, Damages._--Under a statute providing that a person whose +property is destroyed by riot may bring suit against the county for +damages, a corporation for religious purposes, as well as an individual, +has a right of action.(89) + +*53.* _Use, Change, Parsonage, Discipline, Doctrine, Curate._--When a fee +simple is acquired by a religious corporation, without restriction as to +quantity, but limiting the purpose of its use, a subsequent Legislature, +with the consent of the corporation, has power to change or abrogate +altogether the restrictions as to the use of the land.(90) And the +Legislature may empower the church corporation to convey a house devised +to it for a parsonage with a condition that it be kept in repair, and +invest the proceeds in other property to be held for the same purpose.(91) +A State legislature can not interfere in church discipline and doctrine, +as by legislating what shall constitute a curate in the Catholic +Church.(92) + + + + + +CHAPTER V. UNINCORPORATED CHURCH SOCIETIES + + +*54.* _Partners, Debt, Liability._--Where several go into an undertaking +without first being incorporated they are usually liable as partners, each +one being responsible for the whole debt. In some States the same +liability exists where an attempt has been made to incorporate, but there +was a failure to comply fully with the law.(93) There is some authority +freeing the individual members of a religious society from liability for +the debts of such society,(94) and holding that an agent of such society +could not bind the society in their associated capacity by a promissory +note,(95) but the rule is that the members of an unincorporated society +who actively incur lawful debts or ratify them after their creation are +personally liable. There are exceptions to this rule by statute or +decisions in a few States.(96) Also, the law of personal liability is +settled in England.(97) + +*55.* _Pastor, Salary._--In a late case in Wisconsin where a pastor had a +contract with his congregation as to his salary, after the clergyman's +death his heirs recovered the unpaid part of his salary in an action +against a few of the individual members of the congregation.(98) + +*56.* _Building, Materials._--The members of the building committee of an +unincorporated church are liable for materials purchased by them for the +church, notwithstanding that the seller charged the materials in the name +of the church, and that at the time that the purchase was made, he was +told that the money for payment was to be raised by subscription among the +congregation.(99) + +*57.* _Management, Disability._--An unincorporated society is managed by +those who are competent to transact their own business. Therefore, it +would seem that members must be men over twenty-one years of age, and not +under legal disability. The minor sons in a family who have continued +their attendance at the religious services until of full age, are +considered members.(100) + +*58.* _Shakers, Sect, Catholic Church, Trustees, Funds._--Although the sect +called Shakers is not incorporated, yet it has been allowed to take and +hold property for church purposes.(101) In Massachusetts, by statute, a +sect may take and hold property for religious purposes without +incorporation.(102) The Roman Catholic Church is a recognized public +corporation by most nations, including the United States.(103) No +individual member of any such body has any title to the lands it holds, +but the lands are the property of the society in its aggregate +capacity.(104) After property has been acquired, the trustees have no +right to distribute it among the members, as such power could not be +conferred upon them by a majority vote even when approved by an order of +the court. The contributors did not intend their funds to be so disposed +of, and if they failed to attain the use intended, they must be returned +to the donors, and if not called for, would escheat to the state.(105) +Where an unincorporated society has purchased property and taken the title +thereto in the name of one of its members, when it subsequently +incorporates such member may be required to execute a conveyance to the +corporation.(106) + +*59.* _Contract, Binding._--Persons forming a religious society may make a +contract for the support of its minister by a majority vote.(107) When +such unincorporated society by a majority vote enters into a contract or +compromises a suit, it is binding upon the minority.(108) + +*60.* _Court, Trust._--Any member of an unincorporated society may go into +a court of equity on behalf of himself and others to enforce the execution +of a trust in favor of the society.(109) + +*61.* _Societies, Membership, Forfeiture._--Voluntary religious societies +when not restricted by their charters or articles of association, may make +by-laws declaring what shall constitute membership and what shall operate +as a forfeiture thereof, applicable to existing as well as to future +members. Where money is voted to be raised by an assessment to be made at +a subsequent period, a person who was a member of the religious society at +the time that such vote was passed, but withdraws before the time of +assessment, is not liable to taxation.(110) + + + + + +CHAPTER VI. INCORPORATED RELIGIOUS SOCIETIES + + +*62.* _Special Law, General Laws._--In most of the States there is a +special law under which congregations may be incorporated. New York is a +good example.(111) Where such law does not exist, the congregation may be +incorporated under the general laws. For business reasons each +congregation should be incorporated.(112) + +*63.* _Officers, Discipline, Property._--When a church society incorporates +it becomes a private corporation, and the officers are bound to manage the +property in the most upright and careful manner according to the +discipline of the church.(113) When a parish incorporates, the title to +the parish property vests in the corporation, to which trustees may be +compelled to convey it.(114) + +*64.* _Incorporation, Evidence._--The certificate of incorporation or +charter of a religious society or a certified copy thereof from the public +record, is the proper evidence thereof.(115) Secondary evidence and +evidence _aliunde_ may be competent in some forums.(116) In most States if +incorporation is alleged in the complaint, it need not be proved unless +denied by an affidavit or a verified answer. + +*65.* _Congregation, Members._--The act of incorporation applies only to +the particular congregation petitioning for it and does not extend to +other churches, even though they are a subsequent growth within the same +territory.(117) Incorporation once established is presumed to +continue.(118) When a new religious society is formed and incorporated, +consisting of individuals from existing parishes, the members of the new +society from the time of its incorporation cease to be members of the +respective parishes to which they had belonged.(119) + +*66.* _Temporal Affairs, Management._--A majority of a religious +corporation at a regularly called meeting may, by a vote taken, bind the +minority in all temporal affairs.(120) The character of membership in the +religious corporation may be very different from that of membership in the +church.(121) The fact that a member has been declared out of the church by +an ecclesiastical tribunal, may not affect his rights in the management of +the temporal concerns of the corporation.(122) + +*67.* _Corporators, Change._--In isolated cases here and there it has been +held that a majority of the corporators of a religious society has the +right to change the form of church government, as from the Congregational +Church to an organization in connection with the Presbyterian Church.(123) +But it is a general rule that a majority of the congregation can act only +consistently with the particular and general laws of the church +organization, but not in violation of them.(124) + +*68.* _Constitution, Subsequent Laws._--An ecclesiastical society formed +before the adoption of the state constitution is not by that constitution +and subsequent laws concerning religious societies divested of its legal +character.(125) + +*69.* _Name, Change._--The name of an ecclesiastical corporation is +arbitrary and a change or alteration in its name does not affect its +identity.(126) A charter will not be granted to a church with a name so +like another church in the same State, that one may be taken for the +other.(127) + +*70.* _Church, Regular._--In church organizations those who adhere to the +regular order of the church, legal and general, though a minority, are the +true congregation and constitute the corporation if incorporated.(128) + +*71.* _Notice, Legal._--All the proceedings of a corporation, including +notice, must be in accordance with the constitution and by-laws, and no +business transacted contrary thereto is legal.(129) + +*72.* _Control, Secede, Vested Rights._--The officers of a church +corporation have control of the business management for all civil +purposes, excepting as otherwise provided by the articles of organization, +charter, or by-laws of the corporation. However, the by-laws must not +contravene the laws of the State.(130) A charter was refused in +Pennsylvania which provided that the congregation might, by a majority +vote, dissolve or secede from the central body and divide the +property.(131) A charter of incorporation may be amended in harmony with +the principles, discipline, and objects of the church, but not +otherwise.(132) The fact that incorporation of a church confers certain +rights and privileges under the charter, such charter being accepted, does +not give the church corporation any vested rights.(133) + +*73.* _Consolidation, Control, Dissolution._--So far as the State law is +concerned, two different denominations may form one corporation;(134) or +two or more congregations of the same organization may form one +corporation.(135) Where such consolidation is attempted, the new +organization must have control of all the property.(136) So long as +different congregations attempting to consolidate retain their respective +identities, they do not form a single corporation.(137) It is a general +rule that a corporation may be dissolved by taking the steps required by +law. As there are various statutory provisions in the different States, +each case had best be attended to by an attorney. In some States there is +a provision that where a corporation fails to carry out its functions for +a stated time, it thereby becomes dissolved. The omission of a parish for +one year to elect officers, does not necessarily operate as a dissolution +under such statute. In case of dissolution under a statute of that kind, +the property of the church is not forfeited to the State.(138) + +*74.* _Debt, Limited._--The amount of debt which the trustees of a +religious society may be authorized to create, may be limited by its +constitution.(139) + +*75.* _Conditions, Effect._--Where $1,000 was given defendants to erect and +maintain forever a Lutheran church and prohibiting the grantee from +alienating or disposing of or otherwise changing or encumbering the land +by deed, a mortgage given to secure a legitimate debt was held valid, as +the legal title was in the corporation and a court of equity could not +refuse to enforce the mortgage for the payment of an honest debt under +color of protecting a charitable use.(140) But property given a +congregation for the maintenance of a church that becomes dissolved, +reverts to the heirs as a resulting trust.(141) A corporation that has +been authorized to purchase land may execute a mortgage for the purchase +money or a part of it without further authority.(142) Where by an ancient +agreement a meeting-house was to remain in a particular place, a vote of +the congregation will not justify pulling it down, and an action of +trespass will lie for razing it and damages will be given for the value of +the building.(143) + +*76.* _Suits, Parties._--When a church is incorporated, it should be sued +in its corporate name; but when the bishop of the Catholic church holds +the legal title to the land in litigation, he should be made a party.(144) +And if there are two sets of officers contending for control, service of +the papers upon the intruders may not be sufficient. The safer practice is +to serve upon both.(145) A suit by the trustees of a religious society to +restrain other parties claiming to be trustees from interfering in the +management and control of the society property, is properly brought in the +corporate name of the trustees and not in the name of the State.(146) + +*77.* _Incorporation, Sufficient._--Where the articles of incorporation +were drawn and signed in the form required by law, excepting as to the +acknowledgment, and were recorded, and the corporation organized in good +faith, it became a _de facto_ corporation and was sufficient to entitle it +to sue to prevent certain members from perverting the use of its +property.(147) + +*78.* _Dissolution, Fund._--The corporation of a congregation can not by +seceding and a majority vote dissolve the corporation where it is a part +of a superior body.(148) But the courts have plenary powers over +corporations under the United States jurisdiction, such as territories, +and may dissolve a corporation.(149) The fact that the dissolution is +contrary to, or authorized by church discipline, makes no difference as to +granting the dissolution, as such discipline can not supersede the state +law.(150) On dissolution of a religious corporation, the surplus fund +derived from a legacy should be disposed of in the manner the court +believes to be most in harmony with the will of the contributors to the +fund, could they have foreseen the event.(151) + +*79.* _Reorganization._--A church corporation may reorganize and be +reinstated into all rights that it formerly had.(152) The steps to be +taken to reorganize are usually provided by statute and should be closely +followed. Upon the reorganization, the old corporation becomes +terminated.(153) + +*80.* _Meetings, Majority, Quorum._--In corporate meetings, meetings of +boards, and meetings of committees duly called, a majority vote of those +present determines the action of the body. If the membership is +indefinite, those who attend such meeting constitute a quorum; but if the +membership is definite, it requires a majority of the voting members to +constitute a quorum, unless the law of the State or the constitution +(articles of organization) or by-laws provide a different number.(154) + + + + + +CHAPTER VII. SUPERIOR AUTHORITY + + +*81.* _Protestant, Ministers, Bishop._--In most church organizations the +authority is divided into superior and inferior. In countries where there +is an established Protestant church, the superior authority is first in +the king and queen and secondly in the bishops. The inferior authority is +in the ministers and secular officers of the church. Where there is no +established church, the synod or bishop is the superior authority. Thus +decisions of our courts usually apply to all churches alike. + +*82.* _Roman Catholic Church, Pope, Bishops, Delegated._--In the Roman +Catholic Church the superior authority is first in the Pope and secondly +in the other bishops. This superior authority is graded and some of it may +be delegated, as in case of a Papal delegate. But the general rule that +delegated authority can not be again delegated by the delegate without +special authority applies to church matters. + +*83.* _Bishop, Discipline, Clergy._--Within his diocese the bishop is the +executive officer, the legislature, and the judiciary; but he is subject +to the superior authority of the Church. The bishop may make laws for his +diocese, subject to the limitation of the general doctrine and discipline +of the Church. He has original jurisdiction of all causes arising in his +diocese, and may decide them in the first instance and inflict such +penalties, suspension, or excommunication, in accordance with the canons +of the Church, as he deems fit. The clergy are subject to his orders and +discipline according to the canon law. However, without special contract, +the bishop is not civilly liable for the salary of a priest under him, +either while he is actually in the line of his assigned duties or while +waiting to be assigned.(155) + +*84.* _Local, Secular Matters._--There is still another division of +superior and inferior authority: the local corporation or congregation has +nothing whatever to do with the doctrinal or disciplinary functions of the +Church; but has only such powers and authority with regard to secular +matters as is provided by the laws of the State or conferred by the +articles of organization, charter, and by-laws. Also, unless there is some +other rule to the contrary, only the male members who are over twenty-one +years of age, have a voice and vote in such corporation.(156) + +*85.* _Unincorporated, Authority._--When a church is not incorporated, all +its elections and proceedings, so far as they are not contrary to the laws +of the State, must be in accordance with the rules and regulations of the +Church; and the rule that the inferior authority must give way to the +superior authority in all matters within the limitations of the +constitution and laws of the organization, prevails.(157) However, courts +are not always clear on the last part of this rule.(158) + +*86.* _Tribunal, Action, Appeal._--When any question arises and is being +adjudicated in the tribunal of the church organization, either as an +original action or on appeal, the State court will not interfere so long +as the proceedings are in accordance with the rules and regulations of the +church, unless some vested right to property is in question or some one's +right as a citizen of the State or of the United States is being +infringed.(159) + +*87.* _Spiritual Authority, Excommunication._--Neither the Pope nor the +bishop has any but spiritual authority within the State.(160) The law of +this country considers excommunication as expelling from membership; but +does not tolerate interference with civil or property rights of citizens. +Therefore, major excommunication _non tolerati_, is unlawful in the United +States.(161) However, a bishop is not liable for any expression of his +opinion as to the extent of his episcopal authority nor for any act of +omission in the exercise of his spiritual functions.(162) The civil courts +will not go behind a church authority to inquire as to excommunication, +but may examine as to the competency of the tribunal according to the laws +of the denomination.(163) + +*88.* _Constitution, Limited, Decisions._--A written constitution is not +necessary to prove the connection between a subordinate and superior +ecclesiastical body; but it will be inferred from the circumstances of the +case.(164) The superior may dissolve or reorganize an inferior body as a +congregation.(165) In fact the superior authority, in religious matters, +is plenary, excepting as limited by the laws of the State and the +constitution of the Church.(166) The decisions of the ecclesiastical +tribunals in all cases on doctrine, order, and discipline, are conclusive +in the state courts.(167) + + + + + +CHAPTER VIII. INFERIOR AUTHORITY + + +*89.* _Priesthood_, _Discipline_.--The inferior authority in the Church may +be said to be in the priesthood, whose rights and duties are fixed by the +canon law, but who are still further subject to the reasonable diocesan +rules made by the bishop. The disciplinary relation of a priest to his +bishop is substantially the same as that of a captain to his colonel, and +implicit obedience in accordance with the discipline of the Church may be +strictly enforced by the bishop in so far as it relates to ecclesiastical +matters, including doctrine and discipline, in which the priest can not +resort to the courts of the State, but must submit to the tribunals of the +church.(168) + +*90.* _Congregation, Insubordinate, Discipline._--The male members of a +congregation are invested with no visitorial or controling power, but only +such authority as is given under the laws of incorporation.(169) Where an +inferior organization, as a congregation, refuses to receive a clergyman +appointed by the bishop, it is an act of insubordination to the +ecclesiastical authority of the Church and in violation of its discipline, +which authorizes the issuing of a peremptory mandamus commanding them to +admit the clergyman.(170) + +*91.* _Pastor, Parish, Relation._--When a clergyman's connection with a +church had been duly dissolved, he ceased to be pastor of the church and +an arrangement with the parish to retain his relation as pastor of such +church was nugatory and void.(171) + +*92.* _Clergymen, Citizens._--Clergymen residing in an incorporated town +are not exempt from the performance of any duties required of citizens, +unless such exemption is given by statute.(172) + +*93.* _Doctrine and Discipline, Authority._--In all matters concerning +doctrine and discipline of the Church, the inferior authority, such as +ministers, priests, and deacons, as well as the congregation, must submit +to the decision of the higher authority, whether bishop, synod, or +council.(173) + +*94.* _Sect, Suit, Property._--A number of people formed a congregation and +became incorporated in 1810, the members being mostly of Presbyterian +extraction. This independent congregation bought and paid for property, +the title vesting in the corporation. In 1811 the congregation passed +resolutions unanimously that it "would be imprudent and unscriptural" to +establish a new religious sect, and voted to join the First Reformed Dutch +Church, which had an organization of inferior and superior authority. The +congregation was received into and became a part of the general +organization, and remained so until 1860, when a majority of the +congregation voted to employ a Methodist minister, and when his name was +submitted to the superior authority, the "classis," he was rejected as not +belonging to the church. Then by a majority vote, the congregation seceded +and assumed its first name, and thereafter brought suit for the church +property. The court held that by joining the First Reformed Dutch Church, +the title of the property vested in the congregation of that church as +represented by its corporation, and that when the majority seceded and +left the church, they had no right nor title to any of the property. And +the court laid down the general rule that a majority of a church +congregation may direct and control any church matters consistently with +the particular and general laws of the organization or denomination to +which it belongs, but not in violation of them.(174) + +*95.* _Priest, Salary._--The fact that a bishop who holds the title to all +the diocesan property in his own name in trust appoints a priest to the +parish or as chaplain to a hospital, does not give the priest a right of +action against the bishop personally for his salary. The relation of +bishop and priest is not that of employer and employe, but is that of +ecclesiastical superior and inferior.(175) + +*96.* _Curate, Induction, Rector._--The _jus patronatus_ of the Spanish law +has been abrogated in Louisiana. The wardens of the church can not compel +a bishop to institute a curate of their appointment, nor is he in any +sense subordinate in his clerical functions to the wardens of any church +within his diocese.(176) In the absence of a positive rule of the +ecclesiastical body, no ceremony of induction is necessary for the rector +of a parish.(177) A clergyman appointed "permanently" to a rectorship +holds it for an indefinite period during the pleasure of the contracting +parties, and either of the contracting parties may give the other notice +of termination, and with the concurrence of the higher ecclesiastical +authority of the diocese, a change may be made.(178) It is doubtful, +however, whether in most States a permanent appointment would not be +construed as a contract for life, determinable only for good cause.(179) + +*97.* _Controversy, Tribunal, Decision._--When the clergyman and his +parishioners submit a controversy to an ecclesiastical tribunal, the +decision, if not impeached for good cause, is justification in the party +conforming to it.(180) And a minister who submits to a church tribunal and +is ousted after fair hearing and trial, can not obtain a writ of mandamus +from the civil court to compel his reinstatement.(181) Also, after a +minister has been dismissed in due manner by the tribunal of his +denomination, the civil court will enjoin him from usurping his +office.(182) + +*98.* _Priest, Dwelling, Servant._--A Catholic priest in charge of a +congregation at the will of the bishop and occupying a dwelling-house +belonging to the church, is a servant and not a tenant, and his right to +occupancy ceases with his services.(183) The law is different with regard +to a Methodist minister who is in charge of his parish by an annual +conference and can not be ejected by the congregation or bishop until the +next conference, as he has possession of the church property without +superior authority.(184) + +*99.* _Injunction, Bishop, Priest, Trial._--On application for an +injunction to restrain the bishop from passing a sentence against a +priest, the only ground on which a court can exercise jurisdiction is that +the threatened action of the bishop will affect the civil rights of the +priest.(185) A bishop can not remove a priest without an accusation, +hearing, or trial, and forbid him to exercise any priestly function where +such removal would cut off the priest's income and destroy his means of +living in his vocation.(186) However, in the same case it was held that a +complaint stating that the bishop failed and neglected to assign the +plaintiff to the exercise of his office of priest in said diocese to the +plaintiff's damage, etc., failed to show that any right of property or +civil right was involved and the priest was non-suited, while in the +former case an injunction was issued against the bishop.(187) + +*100.* _Confession, Privacy, Authority._--A Catholic priest, although about +to administer an office of his religion to a sick person at the latter's +request, has no legal authority, by virtue of his priestly character, to +forcibly remove from the room a person lawfully there.(188) + +*101.* _Debts, Permission, Presumed._--Notwithstanding a rule or +ecclesiastical law of the church that a pastor shall not contract debts in +the name or for the sake of the church without the written permission of +the bishop, such written permission is not evidence that debts contracted +under it are the legal debts of the bishop. The authority which bishops +delegate to priests is under the ecclesiastical law and prima facie +ecclesiastical authority, and must be presumed to be so in the absence of +all evidence to the contrary.(189) + +*102.* _Official Acts, Subscriptions._--The official acts of a minister +coming in question incidentally, unless contrary to the statute, are as +valid as the official acts of any other officer.(190) A clergyman who was +engaged to conduct dedication services and was requested by the officers +of the local corporation to solicit subscriptions for paying off the +indebtedness of the church, but was not appointed agent to receive such +subscriptions, had no authority to accept a subscription for the +corporation.(191) + +*103.* _Exemptions, Clergy._--The exemptions given ministers by the +statutes of some States are liberally construed.(192) Without any +statutory exemption, the clergy are liable for all duties required of +other citizens.(193) + +*104.* _Minister, Contributions, Deposed._--No religious teacher or +minister can be enjoined from receiving voluntary contributions, although +he has been deposed by some ecclesiastical tribunal.(194) + +*105.* _Fees, Usages, Excess._--The fees of a priest of the Catholic Church +are regulated by the laws and usages of that Church, and where in this +country the pew rent and collections go for the support of the priest and +the current church expenses, a priest is not accountable for the excess of +such collections over these expenditures.(195) + +*106.* _Salary, Fees._--Under the act of March, 1814, incorporating a +congregation, the congregation, being the legal owners and temporal +administrators of the property which it was authorized to hold, had the +exclusive power to fix the salary of the parish priest or the tariff of +fees for marriages, burial, etc. No such power could be exercised under +that act by the Pope or any bishop.(196) + +*107.* _Clergyman, Salary._--Where a clergyman agreed with a congregation +that the salary should be what could be raised by subscription, the +congregation was bound to use due diligence in procuring subscriptions, +and as it did so, that was all that the clergyman could recover.(197) + +*108.* _Curate, Services._--In an action by a curate against a religious +corporation for personal services, the court will not inquire into the +spiritual relations existing between the parties, but will examine their +legal rights only.(198) + +*109.* _Minister, Dismissal, Money Advanced._--After a parish has voted to +dismiss the minister, it is not competent to prove irregular conduct or +immorality in answer to his claim for salary, without alleging it in the +vote of dismissal.(199) In Illinois it was held that a priest who advanced +money from his private resources for improving church property, had an +equitable lien upon the property for all the money advanced, with legal +interest.(200) But in Pennsylvania, where a priest under the direction of +the bishop built a church in his parish for mission purposes, and in doing +so expended some of his own money, it was held that in the absence of +proof of any rule or custom of the Catholic Church making the payment of +such expenses obligatory on the parish, that he could not recover the +money so expended from his congregation.(201) + + + + + +CHAPTER IX. MEMBERSHIP + + +*110.* _Business, Religious Membership._--Unless there is some other law or +rule to the contrary, the male members of the congregation over twenty-one +years of age constitute the business membership of a religious +society.(202) But the question of membership of religious societies or +congregations is left to be determined by the rules of the religious +denomination to which they belong.(203) And where a condition of +membership is that the person must contribute to the support of the church +and be a communicant, if he is not a communicant he is not entitled to +vote.(204) + +*111.* _Regular, Doctrines, Support._--The ones who adhere and submit to +the regular order and doctrines of the church, although a minority, +constitute the true congregation.(205) At least two things must concur to +qualify a person as a voter: first, stated attendance at divine worship in +the congregation; and, second, contribution to the support of the +church.(206) The list of members kept by the clerk or secretary of the +congregation is evidence of membership.(207) A person who denies any part +of the system of theology received and taught by the denomination is not a +member of the church.(208) + +*112.* _Factions, Authority._--Where two factions of a church, each +claiming to be the church, try members of the other faction, a court may +determine which of the factions is the authorized authority or that the +action taken by either or both of them is nugatory for want of +authority.(209) + +*113.* _Faith, Burial._--Whether a person died in the faith of the Roman +Catholic Church so as to be entitled to burial in its cemetery, is not a +question within the jurisdiction of civil courts, but must be decided by +the ecclesiastical authorities.(210) + +*114.* _Rules, Membership._--Every denomination has the right to prescribe +by rules, its constitution, or its by-laws, the conditions of membership; +and any one who will not subscribe to and practise the doctrines of the +denomination is not a member.(211) + +*115.* _Minor._--Where the legal members of a society that is incorporated +consist of male members of the church of full age, when minor sons become +of age, they become legal members of the corporation, provided they remain +in the church.(212) + +*116.* _Officers, Non-Members._--It has been held that a person may be an +officer or member of the church corporation or its temporal concerns +without being a member of the denomination.(213) + +*117.* _Debts, Unincorporated Parish._--In Connecticut members of an +ecclesiastical society formed by voluntary association under the statutes +of the State are not individually liable for the debts of such +society.(214) But where there is no statute on the subject, the members of +an unincorporated parish are liable for lawful debts contracted or +ratified by them, and their property may be levied on for such debts +incurred or judgments rendered while they are members of the society.(215) +The members of an unincorporated parish may be sued to recover the salary +of a deceased pastor up to the time of his death.(216) + +*118.* _Execution, Property._--While an execution against a territorial +parish may be levied on the property of a member of the parish, it can not +be levied on property of a person who ceased to be a member before the +levy.(217) + +*119.* _Incorporated, Subscriptions._--The members of an incorporated poll +parish are not individually liable on a judgment and execution against the +corporation, excepting on the unpaid subscriptions.(218) + +*120.* _Expelled, Merits._--Mandamus can not be resorted to to restore a +member regularly expelled from his church, as a court will not inquire +into the merits of the case.(219) + +*121.* _Lay Members, Appointed._--Where the statute provides that two lay +members of the corporation of a Catholic parish shall be appointed +annually "by the committee of the congregation," the members of the +congregation have no right to elect said two members, and those appointed +in the proper manner are lawful officers.(220) + + + + + +CHAPTER X. HERESY AND SECESSION + + +*122.* _Mother Church, Control._--A majority of the members of a +congregation can not by their vote leave the church and transfer the +property of the congregation to another church so long as any portion of +the congregation remains faithful to the mother church of which such +congregation forms a part. Such minority shall retain control of the +property.(221) + +*123.* _Seceders, Funds._--Nor can seceders from a religious denomination +retain the funds in their hands as trustees on the ground that they were +members of the society when the funds accrued.(222) The title to church +property in a divided congregation is in that part of the congregation +which is acting in harmony with its own law; and the ecclesiastical laws +and principles which were accepted among them before the dispute began are +the standards for determining which party is right.(223) + +*124.* _Society, Foreign Language, Independent._--The formation of a +society distinct from the rest of the congregation for the purpose of +instruction in a portion of the doctrine of the same church in a foreign +language is not a separation from the congregation, although it has its +own minister and officers.(224) Where an independent congregation of one +denomination votes unanimously to go over to another denomination, and the +title to the church property is in the parish corporation, the seceders +take with them the church property.(225) + +*125.* _Subordinate, Incorporated._--A religious society subordinate to +church judicatures, which declares itself independent and becomes +incorporated under the general law of the state and subsequently purchases +land and takes title in the name of the corporation, holds such land +independently of such church judicatures.(226) + +*126.* _"__Church,__"__ Seceders, Debt._--Where a religious society amended +its constitution as provided therein, those who adhered to the amended +constitution constituted the "church," and those who refused to do so were +seceders.(227) After seceding, a member of a parish is liable for a debt +existing at the time of his secession.(228) + +*127.* _Bible, Constitution, Withdrawal._--A religious organization that +takes the Bible as its constitution can not declare a member a seceder who +interprets it contrary to the Augsburg Confession of the +denomination.(229) What amounts to a voluntary withdrawal of members from +a religious association, is a question of law.(230) + +*128.* _Majority, Obligation._--The fact that a majority of the members of +a religious corporation secede therefrom by a vote, does not affect its +obligation entered into prior thereto.(231) Two factions of a church +separating and keeping up different organizations may both still retain +their membership in the denomination.(232) + +*129.* _Division, Funds._--Where there is a division in a denomination by +the secession of a part of the members from the mother church, the +Legislature has no authority to divide the funds and give a part to the +seceding division.(233) + +*130.* _Methodist, Slaveholding, Non-Slaveholding, Quarrel, Schism, +Secession._--The division of the Methodist church into distinct +organizations of slaveholding and non-slaveholding States, was not a +secession and neither division lost its interest in the common +property.(234) A quarrel in a congregation growing out of an illegal +election followed by the majority excluding the minority from the church, +is not a schism, and is no ground for a division of the church +property.(235) The secession of a whole congregation does not carry with +it the church property; and those who are left and adhere to the mother +church retain control of the property.(236) When the seceders from one +church join another, they forfeit all claim to any interest held by the +former and lose identity with it.(237) + + + + + +CHAPTER XI. EXCOMMUNICATION + + +*131.* _Definitions, Minor._--Excommunication, as construed in law, is the +official announcement by the superior authority of the termination of +membership in a religious body and the forfeiture of spiritual privileges +of the church. It is one of the methods of discipline in the nature of +expulsion from membership in a fraternity, and the fact of expulsion from +a church is conclusive proof that the person expelled is not a member of +such church. Whether the excommunication was wrong or not can not be +examined into in the courts of the State, and such expelled member can not +maintain a suit in relation to church property nor vote for trustees.(238) + +*132.* _Major Excommunication._--As excommunication _non tolerati_ affects +the rights of citizenship, it is not lawful in England nor the United +States. To say that A. has been excommunicated in any form, if untrue, is +slander.(239) + +*133.* _Vote, Sentence._--When a vote of excommunication from a church has +been passed in the Congregational church and the offender thereby declared +no longer a member, the sentence may be promulgated by being read in the +presence of the congregation by the pastor.(240) + +*134.* _Trustees, Disqualified._--The trustees of a church who have been +excommunicated are not thereby disqualified in law to act as +trustees.(241) + +*135.* _Devise, Void._--A parent may leave money to a child payable in +yearly instalments on condition that said child shall continue to be a +member of a particular church and attend the regular meetings thereof, and +in case he fail so to do that the bequest be thereupon paid to a +missionary society. Such a devise is not contrary to the constitution of +the State of Wisconsin and is not void for any other reason.(242) + +*136.* _Fraternity, Excommunicated, Bequest._--Where a church member was +also a member of an insurance fraternity connected with his church, the +constitution of which required that every member of the fraternity should +be and remain a practical Roman Catholic, when he was excommunicated from +membership in the church he thereby forfeited his benefit certificate in +such fraternity.(243) Also, a condition that a bequest shall be forfeited +if the legatee should not marry a Protestant wife, the daughter of +Protestant parents who have always been Protestants, was held to be valid +and not an infringement of any constitutional right.(244) + +*137.* _Action, Expulsion._--An action can not be maintained against the +parish corporation for expulsion from the church.(245) + +*138.* _Forfeiture of Membership_.--Any member may forfeit his membership +in a church.(246) + +*139.* _Insubordination, Expulsion, Hearing._--The authorities in the +church, under its rules and discipline, have a right to exclude members in +the church, for insubordination.(247) If the church has no rules as to +expulsion of members, the common law prevails, and a member can not be +expelled without due notice and fair hearing.(248) + +*140.* _Injunction, Mandamus, Sepulture._--An injunction will not be +granted to prevent the expulsion of a member contrary to the charter and +by-laws of the denomination; but if a member be expelled without warrant +of law, he has his remedy by mandamus for reinstatement.(249) A person who +has been expelled can not maintain an action for restoration in order to +enjoy the right of sepulture, as it is premature.(250) + +*141.* _Expulsion, Illegal._--The attempt of a minority of a church to +expel the majority of the members and turn over the property to another +denomination is illegal. However, the same would be true if it were done +by the majority.(251) + +*142.* _Freedom, Faith, Doctrine._--The constitution in declaring the +freedom of all men to worship God according to the dictates of their own +consciences, does not give a church member the right to repudiate the +faith and doctrine on which the church was founded, and at the same time +to insist on his right to exercise and enjoy the benefits and privileges +of a member of such church.(252) Every person joining a church, impliedly, +if not expressly, agrees to conform to its rules and to submit to its +authority and discipline.(253) A person who has been expelled from a +religious society can not maintain an action for services rendered the +society while he was a member.(254) + + + + + +CHAPTER XII. ELECTIONS + + +*143.* _Time, Place, Void._--Where a religious society that is incorporated +holds an election for trustees, which is held at the wrong time or place, +the election is void.(255) + +*144.* _Voting, Communicants, Attendance._--A by-law of a church that +prohibited any person whose pew rent was in arrears more than two years +from voting at a church meeting, is valid and reasonable.(256) Where a +charter of a religious society allowed only members being communicants to +vote after they had attained the age of eighteen years, to entitle a +member of the congregation to vote it was necessary that he should have +taken the sacraments after the age of eighteen years.(257) Where the right +to vote was limited to members who contributed not less than ten shillings +annually toward the support of the church, those who were challenged for +want of complying with the rule can not do so after being challenged and +then vote.(258) Stated attendance at divine worship in the church, +congregation, or society, and contribution to the support of such church, +may be made the tests of the right of a person to be a voter at an +election. The attendance of a wife or children of the family is not +sufficient to confer the right to vote on the husband or father.(259) + +*145.* _Voters, Poll List._--Parol evidence is admissible to prove the +number of persons entitled to vote in a church society, notwithstanding +that there is a register of names of the stated hearers in such church +kept by the clerk of the trustees. + +*146.* _Notice, Quorum, Majority, Strangers._--It is not necessary that a +majority of the members of a religious society be present to constitute a +corporate meeting. Those present at a regularly called meeting of which +due notice has been given to all the members, constitute a quorum; and, in +the absence of a rule to the contrary, a majority of the votes cast +carries any question.(260) The presence of strangers, unless they vote, +will not vitiate the proceedings. If they should vote, unless their votes +determine the election, it will not be void.(261) The casting of a few +illegal votes that would not change the result of the election does not +make it void.(262) + +*147.* _Challenge, Ground._--The right of a person to vote at any meeting +may be challenged. The proper time to challenge a voter is when he offers +his vote. After his vote has been received it can not be thrown out on the +ground that he was disqualified.(263) A church election for which due +notice has been given, that has been fairly conducted, and all the +requirements of the statute or rules of the church complied with, is +conclusive.(264) Without due notice, all proceedings are void.(265) + +*148.* _By-Laws, Usage._--If there is no law of a religious society +determining the mode of conducting an election, the corporation may +provide by-laws therefor; and if the corporation should fail to make such +by-laws, a long established usage will govern.(266) Also, if the time an +election is to be held is provided for, but the manner of conducting it is +not, the meeting may be conducted according to established usage.(267) + +*149.* _Ballot, Hand Vote._--The vote of a religious society at an annual +meeting for the election of officers that the officers shall always be +chosen by ballot, does not vitiate an election of officers by hand vote at +a subsequent annual meeting. But a provision in the constitution or +by-laws requiring a ballot must be complied with.(268) + +*150.* _Hold Over, Successors._--When the election of the new trustees is +invalid, the old trustees hold over until there will have been a valid +election of their successors.(269) But where a board that was illegally +elected employed a minister who had no notice of such illegality, he was +entitled to his compensation according to the contract.(270) + +*151.* _Majority, Votes Cast._--Where the majority of a congregation +protested against the proposed candidate, but failed to vote for any one, +such candidate who received the greatest number of votes cast, was +lawfully elected.(271) + +*152.* _By-Law, Tickets._--When a by-law provides that "if besides the +names there are other things upon the tickets, such tickets are not to be +counted," a ballot having an engraved eagle on it should be rejected.(272) +However, in a very recent case under a statute that specifically provided +what should be printed on the general election ballot, and in addition +thereto the Union Labor label was printed thereon, the court held that the +statute should be strictly construed in favor of the voter and that the +ticket should be counted.(273) + + + + + +CHAPTER XIII. OFFICERS + + +*153.* _Charter, By-Laws._--The articles of organization or the charter +which is the constitution of the corporation may provide who may be +officers of a religious society and limit their authority. The +constitution usually gives further authority to make by-laws which are +binding on the officers as well as on the members.(274) + +*154.* _Unincorporated Church, Incorporated._--The officers of an +unincorporated church can only be elected by the members of the church, +unless there is some law of the State or rule of the church that provides +for appointing them. In an incorporated congregation, the charter and +by-laws of the corporation determine whether the officers shall be elected +or appointed.(275) + +*155.* _Trustees, Control._--A statute passed in 1813 providing that a +certificate of incorporation by the bishop, vicar-general, pastor of the +church, and two others selected by them and their successors shall be a +body corporate, does not constitute the trustees the corporation in place +of the congregation so as to make the acts of a majority of the trustees +binding on the corporation in the absence of proof of other +authority.(276) Under the statutes of Louisiana providing for the +incorporation of congregations for the purpose of administration and +revenues, it was held that the corporation had full control and was +responsible to the congregation alone and could not be controled by the +clergy. The congregation had the right to elect others in the places of +those amoved by reason of their misuse or abuse of their powers.(277) And +in Massachusetts, under the law for incorporating Catholic parishes, no +one but the trustees have any power.(278) + +*156.* _Membership, Office._--Where church membership is necessary to hold +office in the church corporation, it is a binding condition +precedent.(279) An officer who withdraws or is expelled from a religious +organization thereby terminates his office.(280) + +*157.* _Certificate of Election._--A certificate of election of officers is +prima facie evidence thereof, but the truth may be shown _aliunde_ and a +wrong certificate may be cancelled by a judgment of a competent court on a +writ of _quo warranto_ or proceeding under a statute of the State. Also, +if the certificate does not conform to the law, it is insufficient.(281) + +*158.* _Term, Successors, Contest._--Where there is no term of office +fixed, the presumption is that an officer continues as such until proof to +the contrary is established,(282) or until his successor shall have been +elected and shall have qualified.(283) Also, the officers elected for a +certain term can not be amoved by electing new officers before the end of +the term.(284) When officers or committees have been elected "for the +ensuing year," they shall hold office until superseded by their duly +elected successors. Where two sets of officers were elected at a meeting +of a religious corporation and the set that was elected according to the +charter continued in office by appointment thereafter, it was too late for +the irregularly elected officers to make a contest for the offices after +the term for which they had been elected had expired.(285) + +*159.* _By-Laws, Preside._--At an election of trustees under by-laws that +provide that certain officers shall preside, if there are no such officers +members may be selected to preside in their places.(286) + +*160.* _Note, Overdraft, Interest._--The president and secretary of a +church corporation have no authority to make a promissory note unless +authorized by the board of trustees.(287) Neither has the treasurer +authority to make an overdraft on a bank with the action of the +trustees.(288) The trustees of a parish, however, may make a note binding +the congregation for the payment of the money used in building a +church.(289) But when the trustees have an interest in the transaction, +adverse to the congregation, they are disqualified from acting.(290) When +trustees had claims against the congregation which they included with +other claims that third parties had against the church, they could not put +them in a judgment note so as to get a lien upon the church property. When +officers do not bind the congregation, they usually bind themselves.(291) +The trustees of an unincorporated church can not bind it beyond the +expressed powers granted by the members.(292) + +*161.* _Board, Control._--When the laws of the organization give control of +matters to the board of trustees, the majority of the members of the +church can not control the action of the trustees contrary to the usages +and regulations of the church.(293) + +*162.* _Treasurer, Accepting a Draft._--A parish treasurer has no authority +under any condition to bind the corporation by accepting a draft in favor +of a third person. A treasurer elected for the purpose of receiving and +investing funds in his individual name, holds such funds as trustee for +the church and is subject as such trustee to a court of equity. Persons +claiming to be trustees of a church but never getting possession of their +offices or the property of the church, can not maintain an action against +other persons who are in possession and have been duly elected.(294) + +*163.* _Note, Trustees._--A church will not be bound by a note which was +executed by two of its trustees and sent around to other trustees to sign +it, where there was no vote of the board of trustees at an authorized +meeting to borrow or to execute such note.(295) A meeting of a board must +be called as required by law or the by-laws of the organization, and in +the absence of any such all members must be notified a reasonable time +before the time fixed for holding the meeting. However, if all the +trustees are present and agree to hold a meeting it is valid; but it would +be well to put such consent in writing and have all the members sign +it.(296) + +*164.* _Money, Powers._--The treasurer of a congregation has no right to +return to members moving out of the parish a part of the money paid for +the church by them.(297) Officers of a corporation have no powers only +those conferred upon them by the charter and by-laws of the corporation or +by a majority vote of a duly called meeting of the congregation.(298) When +the trustees of a church are authorized to execute contracts for the +church, they should act as a body or delegate the power to one of their +number or ratify the acts of one of their number.(299) The individual +disjointed action of trustees of a religious society, at various times and +places, although assented to by a majority, is not the action of the +board, and is not binding on the society. To make the action of the board +of trustees binding, they must duly meet and by a vote determine their +action.(300) + +*165.* _De Facto Officers._--The acts of _de facto_ officers can not +usually be questioned in a collateral proceeding, such as to set aside a +conveyance, when the merits of the question do not involve the +election.(301) Being elected does not alone make a person a _de facto_ +officer; but he must also be acting in the particular office to which he +claims to have been elected.(302) But one who has entered into a contract +with the officers of a congregation is estopped from denying their +authority to make such contract.(303) + +*166.* _Trustees, Thanks, Charge._--Where trustees have taken care of funds +without charge, the only entry kept being a vote of thanks from time to +time, they could not afterward charge a commission on the moneys handled +by them for such services.(304) + +*167.* _Discretion, Excommunication._--A court has no authority to control +the exercise of the judgment or discretion of the officers of a church in +the management of its funds so long as they do not violate its +constitution or by-laws.(305) Excommunication does not always remove an +officer of a church corporation.(306) The legal rights of a bishop in +regard to the temporalities of a church where they are not prescribed by +civil law, must rest, if at all, upon the ecclesiastical law, which must +be determined by evidence.(307) + +*168.* _Key, Possession, Right._--Having the key of a church, is prima +facie evidence of possession, but the right of possession is a matter of +proof.(308) + +*169.* _Church, Bishop, Debts, Salary of a Priest._--Where a church is not +itself liable because it is not incorporated, the Roman Catholic bishop of +the diocese is not personally liable for moneys borrowed by the pastors of +such church in the name of the church, which were partly invested in real +estate which was put in the bishop's name in the usual manner, although +the bishop's permission was necessary before borrowing the money, and +notwithstanding that the bishop raised some of the money to pay some of +the debts and the mortgage on the real estate of the church on his +personal security, and he received part of the borrowed funds from a dying +pastor and handed it over to his successor.(309) Also, a bishop is not +personally liable for the salary of a priest whom he engages. They are +fellow servants working for the Church and not in the relation of employer +and employee any more than are a general and captain in the same +army.(310) + +*170.* _Note, Building Committee._--In an action on a note given by the +pastor of a church for money borrowed to pay bills for the erection of the +church building, in which the plaintiff sought to charge the building +committee, and it appeared from the plaintiff's testimony that the title +to the property was in the bishop and the committee did not handle any of +the funds, but was a shifting body to whom the pastor only went for advice +and consultation, it was held that the plaintiff could not recover.(311) + +*171.* _Fraud, Trust._--Where a "prophet" induced members of his +organization, by his fraud and deceit, to convey to him all their property +in discharge of a religious duty and then refused to account to them, the +court declared the trust closed and divided the estate among the members +in proportion to the money, property, and labor contributed by each of +them.(312) + +*172.* _Superioress, Money._--A person who contributed money for the +purpose of repairing a convent, the money being turned over to the +superioress and the convent not being incorporated, upon the project being +abandoned subsequently a personal judgment could not be obtained against +the superioress for the money contributed.(313) + +*173.* _Loan, Priest._--If a man lends money to a priest for the purpose of +paying a note against the congregation left at the bank for collection, he +can recover the money so paid from the congregation.(314) + +*174.* _Warden, Wages, Sexton._--A church warden who was hired by the +trustees of a church can not collect his wages by an action against the +priest of the parish.(315) A church accepting the services of a sexton is +liable to him therefor, whether the by-laws were observed in employing him +or not; nor will the fact that any party (as in this case the Ladies of +the Altar Society) agreed to contribute to his annual salary, defeat his +recovery of the whole from the church employing him.(316) + +*175.* _Sewing Circle, Money._--A church may maintain an action against a +sewing circle to require it to pay over money collected for the benefit of +the church.(317) + + + + + +CHAPTER XIV. MEETINGS + + +*176.* _Business, Notice, Meeting._--Where, in the transaction of the local +business of a religious society, whether incorporated or not, meetings of +the members shall become necessary, in order to make such meetings legal +due notice thereof should be given to every member. The notice should +specify the exact time and place where the meeting will be held, and no +change can be made except at such time and place. Unless some other place +is specified, the parish church is the proper place for holding meetings. +If the church should be locked and the key can not be found, a meeting +should be held at the door or at the nearest practical place to the church +where all the members may assemble, and then by a majority vote they may +adjourn to any convenient near place accessible to all the members.(318) + +*177.* _Acts, Void, Lawful, Clerk._--The acts of a majority of the members +of a corporation, unless done according to law and in conformity with the +charter and by-laws of the corporation, are absolutely null and void.(319) +The only lawful manner by which a congregation can express itself, is by a +meeting regularly called and held upon due notice.(320) The notice of a +meeting should be authorized by the trustees or other authority of the +church, and given to all the members. The clerk of the board of trustees, +unless authorized to do so, has no authority to sign the name of the +members of the board to a notice, and a meeting called in that way is +illegal.(321) + +*178.* _Special Meeting, Notice._--When a meeting is special, the notice +must state for what purpose the meeting is called. If it fails to do so it +is void, and unless all the members are present and consent to the holding +of the meeting, all business transacted is illegal and void.(322) Notice +of a special meeting that states one specific purpose for which it is +called, and then states "to transact any other business that may legally +come before the meeting," is not good for any purpose except the one +specified.(323) + +*179.* _Meeting, Consent._--A valid meeting can not be held by a +corporation, unless notice has been given in conformity with the laws and +rules and regulations of the corporation or the consent of every person +who is entitled to be present at the holding of such meeting. In the +latter case the consent should be in writing and signed by all the +members.(324) However, a person who attends a meeting and takes part in it +without objection, is estopped from raising the question of notice.(325) + +*180.* _Notice, Principal Service, Custom._--When a rule of a church +required notice of a meeting to be given at the principal service, a +notice given at an earlier service only, was void.(326) But where the +ordinances of a church specified that the election of officers should be +at least six days before the end of their term, and it became the custom +of the church to hold the election on a movable holiday which sometimes +was less than six days, the election was held valid.(327) + +*181.* _Adjournment._--Where a meeting was noticed for one day and held on +a different day without notice of adjournment, all acts done were void and +the officers elected were neither _de jure_ nor _de facto_ officers.(328) + +*182.* _Proof of the Notice._--The proper proof of the notice would be the +return of the officer serving the notice, in some States; and in others an +affidavit of the person who served the notice. The proof of the services +of a summons would be sufficient unless there is some other law or rule to +the contrary.(329) + +*183.* _Presiding Officer._--When the laws of the organization provide who +shall preside at a meeting, but the minister contrary to such laws and +against objections presided over the majority of the congregation, and the +minority was presided over by the proper person, and both elected +officers, the officers elected by the minority were the lawful ones.(330) +However, where a meeting is presided over without objection by a member +instead of the proper officer, the acts of the body are lawful.(331) + +*184.* _Voters, Rules._--Unless the laws of the State otherwise provide, +every religious organization has the right to determine who shall vote at +its meetings and elections. If those provisions are reasonable, they are +lawful. Under such provisions it has been repeatedly held that where there +are rules requiring annual subscriptions to the church,(332) only those +who rented and paid for pews, or those who paid a certain annual tax, or +those who went to communion, were entitled to vote.(333) And where there +was no rule, it was held that one who has not contributed to the +church(334) and persons who attended church only occasionally and +contributed only when they attended, were not qualified voters.(335) In +the last case it was stated that a qualified voter is one who has attended +regularly during the year and has contributed to the support of the +church. + +*185.* _Quorum, Majority._--A quorum of a congregation usually consists of +those present at a duly called regular meeting, and a majority of those +present is sufficient to carry questions, unless by rule or law otherwise +provided.(336) But where there is a definite body in a corporation which +has established no other rule, a majority of the members of the +corporation constitute a quorum.(337) Where the minutes of the clerk +stated that upon due notice the members of the corporation met, a quorum +is presumed.(338) + +*186.* _Votes, Challenge, Inspectors, Casting Vote._--The reception of +illegal votes does not invalidate an election unless they change the +result.(339) If the presiding officer refuses to allow a qualified voter +to vote, the right may be enforced through civil courts.(340) When votes +have been received without challenge, it is then too late to raise the +objection that the persons have no right to vote.(341) It is the duty of +the inspectors to determine the qualifications of an elector at the time +that he offers to vote, and before he votes; and if they decide in the +exercise of their judgment, without malice or improper motives, the +regularity of the election can not be questioned.(342) When a rule allows +the presiding officer to vote and another rule states that he shall have +the casting vote in case of a tie vote, he still had the right to cast the +decisive vote.(343) Illegal voting in a religious society probably is not +an indictable offense, but it is a disorderly act.(344) + +*187.* _Written Notice, Prayer Meeting._--Where a five days' written notice +is required to hold church meetings, an oral notice given on Sunday +evening at the prayer meeting is not sufficient for a meeting on the +following Wednesday. But a vote taken on Sunday to hire the minister and +fix his salary, is not void.(345) Churches and benefit societies, such as +insurance fraternities, being charitable organizations, may do business +concerning such association on Sunday.(346) + +*188.* _Expulsion, Damages._--A man who has been wrongfully expelled from a +temperance society for religious reasons may recover damages +therefor.(347) + + + + + +CHAPTER XV. CHURCH RECORDS + + +*189.* _Evidence, Entries, Minutes._--The record of the proceedings of a +religious society is evidence as to its doings, both in its own tribunals +and the courts of the State. Such record consists of entries required to +be made by the laws or rules of the society, the laws of the State, and +the minutes adopted by the society. Therefore, it is of the greatest +importance that it be kept with great exactness, omitting nothing that is +important.(348) Also, the minutes of all the meetings should be correct +before being duly adopted. All erasures and interlineations should be +certified by the clerk and then signed by him. + +*190.* _Uniformity._--Every entry required to be kept by the laws of the +State as well as the rules of the Church, should be kept as to births, +marriages, and death. Every diocese should have uniform record books in +all parishes and every pastor should keep blanks printed in the form of a +page of the record book, to issue certificates when required. + +*191.* _Marriage, Death, Baptism, Birth, Church Records._--The church +records duly kept in accordance with the discipline of the church, are +admissible in evidence to prove marriage, death, and baptism. Where the +record is incomplete, as giving the date of baptism only, it is not +admissible in proof of date of birth. But if it gives the date of birth, +it is _prima facie_ proof thereof.(349) + +*192.* _Certified Copies._--Under statutes, certified copies of the record +made by the custodian thereof are admissible in evidence in any case where +the original would be admissible. Also, one who had compared a copy with +the original record may testify to the same. The rule, as given, +substantially prevails under statutes in the following States: Alabama, +Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, +Minnesota, Missouri, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin; +and also, in Ontario, Manitoba, and the Dominion of Canada. + +*193.* _Rule of Admissibility._--A certified copy of the record of a +baptism taken from a church register by the parish priest, when admissible +at the place where such record is kept, as in Ireland, is admissible to +prove the same fact in the State of Missouri.(350) + +*194.* _Proper Record._--A book kept by a minister, which contained a +regular statement in proper form of the admission of members, choice of +officers, and transaction of business of the church, which was the only +book kept by the parish, is the proper record of the church.(351) + +*195.* _Name, Record._--The author would like to emphasize the importance +of correct records. Frequently we find no Christian name given in the +records of birth, which practically makes the record worthless. When a +child is born it is entitled to a name, immediately, which should be given +and be correct. At least the first Christian name should be correct; a +mistake in a middle name is not material. This is true of deeds and +records of all kinds, but practically of births, deaths, and +marriages.(352) + + + + + +CHAPTER XVI. CHURCH TRIBUNALS + + +*196.* _Jurisdiction, Privileges._--It is usual for every fraternity to +have a tribunal of its own for the trial of members who break its laws or +violate its discipline. Within their jurisdiction, the laws of the State +give such tribunals great privileges and courts show them great respect. +The Freemasons, the Knights of Columbus, etc., and most of the churches, +have such courts.(353) + +*197.* _Trial, Property, Priest._--In most of the States a court will not +interfere with the fair trial of a church tribunal. Neither will the court +entertain a controversy concerning the title or right of possession of +real or personal property excepting at the instance of some person +claiming a right thereto derived from or recognized by the law of the +State or of the United States.(354) But when the bishop has deprived a +subordinate priest of his authority to officiate as such, he may enjoin +the priest from making use of the church property.(355) + +*198.* _Doubt, Legal Rights._--The foregoing rule has some doubt cast on it +in Delaware and Massachusetts. The investigation of a dispute between +members of a church by a committee according to church regulations, +consented to by the parties, in which both take part, can have no effect +on their legal rights. If the State law provides for cases of the kind, it +is superior and must be submitted to. Also, an award or proceeding of a +committee is not evidence for or against either party. However, any +statement made, or admissions of the parties, if not of a recognized +confidential nature, may be given in evidence on the trial in a court of +the State.(356) The judgment of a mutual ecclesiastical council legally +convoked will not bind either party rejecting it.(357) + +*199.* _Bishop, Priest, Redress._--When a bishop removes a priest in the +regular way according to the rules and discipline of his church, the +priest has no redress.(358) Also, when a priest has submitted his case to +the church tribunal according to the discipline of his church, he must +abide by its decision, excepting where his civil rights or property rights +as a citizen are involved, when he may appeal to the laws of the +land.(359) + +*200.* _Trial, Counsel._--The question whether a minister on trial in a +church tribunal is entitled to be heard by counsel or attorneys depends +upon the laws of the church, and it can not be said as a matter of law +that he is entitled to counsel.(360) + +*201.* _Removal, Suspension, Trial._--In the United States under the laws +and discipline of the Catholic Church a priest may be removed from the +charge of a congregation at the pleasure of the bishop, without trial; but +he can not be suspended from his priestly functions without specific +accusation and trial.(361) + +*202.* _Charges, Fair Trial, Hearsay Evidence._--When a clergyman or +officer is to be removed or a member of the congregation is to be +excommunicated, it is necessary to fully state the charges against him and +give him an opportunity for a fair trial according to the laws and rules +of the religious society before rendering final judgment. All the +allegations of the complaint should be made upon positive knowledge of the +complainant or upon evidence that is admissible to prove the case in +court. Rumor or gossip, known as mere hearsay evidence, is not sufficient +to base a charge against the character of any one.(362) + +*203.* _Trial, Testimony, Slander._--A church judgment, where there has +been a full and fair trial or when members submit to the church tribunal, +and the judgment has only been rebuke, censure, suspension, or +excommunication, is usually upheld by the courts; and when the testimony +given on such trial is concerning immoral or scandalous conduct or crime, +if those taking part act in good faith and within the scope of the +authority of the church, they are protected by law and not liable to an +action for damages for libel or slander.(363) + +*204.* _Remedies, Secular Courts._--In cases involving church doctrine and +discipline only, all remedies within the church must be exhausted by a +member before the secular courts will interfere, if they will interfere at +all.(364) + +*205.* _Notice, Waiver._--When the laws of the church provide the tribunal +and procedure, if the person proceeded against avoids the service of the +notice or refuses to submit to the court, the notice of trial required to +be served might thereby be considered waived and the tribunal might +proceed with the trial in the absence of the accused.(365) + +*206.* _Appeal, Decision, Limitation._--The right to appeal from one court +to another of higher jurisdiction is generally recognized.(366) If after +trial in the lower tribunal of the Church, an appeal is taken, the +decision on the appeal is binding upon the parties and also upon the +inferior tribunal.(367) In the Anglican and some other churches, there is +no limitation as to time when offenses against the discipline of the +church may be inquired into.(368) + +The Catholic Church has a limitation as to prescriptive rights, to-wit: +"Three years in case of movable property; ten years in case of a right, or +of immovable property, _inter praesentes_; twenty years in the same case, +_inter absentes_."(369) Also, there are limitations in canonical cases, +varying from one to twenty years.(370) There is no statute of limitation +on lawful debts. + +*207.* _Procedure, Judge, Juror, Witness._--If there are no rules of +procedure prescribed by the church tribunal, the proper practice is to +follow the State courts; as, for example, where the State law forbids an +officer of the court who has an interest in the proceeding to sit as judge +or juror, the same would apply to the church tribunal, it being the common +law of the land. Also, in States where a person who is interested in a +matter is not a competent witness, in the absence of a different rule in +the church, the same rule would apply in the church tribunal.(371) + +*208.* _Catholic Discipline._--A church member has no right to sue any one +in holy orders in the civil court without leave. That is, a layman or +priest should obtain leave of the bishop to sue a priest. In some +countries it is ground for excommunication to violate the rule. This rule +is analogous to the general rule that a sovereign state can not be sued +without its consent.(372) In this country, where there is no +ecclesiastical court recognized in law, leave is rarely asked.(373) + + + + + +CHAPTER XVII. STATE COURTS + + +*209.* _Decision, Ecclesiastical Matter._--The decision of the highest +tribunal of the church on a purely ecclesiastical matter will not be +disturbed by civil courts unless it is in open defiance and express +violation of the constitution of such body.(374) + +*210.* _Right of Property, Civil Rights._--Where there are several church +tribunals one above another, when the highest tribunal having jurisdiction +of the case has decided a question as to the right of property, a civil +court will accept such decision of the church tribunal as conclusive.(375) +The courts give way to the usages and regulations of the church so far as +they are not inconsistent with the constitution and laws of the +State.(376) As far as civil rights are concerned, the statute of +limitations may be pleaded even where those rights are founded upon some +law or rule of the denomination.(377) + +*211.* _Creed, Factions, Property, Management._--The supreme court +exercises no ecclesiastical jurisdiction, but accepts what the highest +ecclesiastical authority in each church promulgates as the faith and +practice of that church, and will not determine for itself what that faith +or creed is in order to establish the rights of respective factions in the +church to the church property. But a majority of a congregation that +secedes from the church and forms a new organization can not claim any of +the property.(378) The civil courts will not interfere with church +management so far as concerns the spiritual discipline of the members, but +where civil rights of property are involved, the courts may determine +them.(379) The civil rights of a religious society or its members are +within the jurisdiction of the State courts.(380) + +*212.* _Trust, Court of Equity._--A conveyance in trust for the use of a +church vests the use in the church and it will be protected by a court of +equity.(381) + +*213.* _Injunction, Closing Church, Paying Money, Disturbances._--A court +of equity will issue an injunction against the trustees of a church from +wrongfully closing it or keeping it closed even against a small +minority.(382) Church property vested in trustees of a religious body is +held under trust and a court of equity has jurisdiction to enforce the +trust.(383) A court of equity may restrain the trustees of a church from +paying money to a duly deposed minister.(384) But a court of equity will +not interfere to quell religious disturbances when no question as to +property or civil rights is involved. The board of trustees of a church +can not remove a priest against the will of the congregation.(385) + +*214.* _Suits, Parties._--Where a number of persons have contributed to the +erection of a church, it is not necessary for all who contribute to join +in an action to restrain a sale of the property for mercantile +purposes.(386) Any member of a church not incorporated may come into a +court of equity in behalf of himself and others and enforce the execution +of a trust in favor of the church.(387) The same rule would apply to a +church where any one in authority is violating the law.(388) If several +congregations of a diocese are interested in litigation, to hold all the +property of the diocese liable for the debt of a parish, each congregation +is entitled to be made a party.(389) + +*215.* _Complaint._--A complaint that the plaintiffs hold one doctrinal +standard and the defendants another is sufficiently definite without +explaining the difference between the two.(390) + +*216.* _Church Tribunal, Courts._--Courts are reluctant to interfere in the +church doctrine or discipline or inquire into the regularity of the +proceedings of the church tribunal. When such tribunal has deposed a +pastor or expelled a member, it is final. However, in contracts, property +rights, and civil rights of a citizen, the courts take jurisdiction. It is +no defense to a pastor's expulsion that there is salary due him.(391) + +*217.* _Unincorporated Congregation, Actions, Interest._--An unincorporated +congregation may be sued on contract in its associate capacity, though no +persons are named as trustees or committeeman.(392) In all actions by or +against a congregation the civil courts will not permit suits to be +brought by complainants who have no interest either legal or equitable in +the temporalities of the church.(393) A suit against a society of Shakers +consisting of indefinite membership with changing additions, withdrawals, +and deaths, whose property is held in common without any individual +interest, may properly be brought in equity as the remedy at law would be +inadequate.(394) + +*218.* _Blasphemy, Sabbath, Lord's Prayer, Bible._--Christianity is a part +of the common law of the United States; it is on this ground that +blasphemy and violation of the Sabbath are made criminal offenses and that +the Lord's Prayer and the Bible are used in the schools.(395) + + + + + +CHAPTER XVIII. EVIDENCE + + +*219.* _Judicial Notice._--A church takes judicial notice without proof of +its own rules, laws, and doctrines. Every other fact should be proved +according to the rules of evidence of the church, and in the absence of a +church rule the following rules of the courts of this country should +prevail: + +1. Nothing should be admitted in evidence unless it directly proves or +disproves an evidentiary fact forming a link of a chain of facts that will +prove a fact in issue. + +2. It is sufficient to prove the substance of the issue, unless the exact +word or thing forms the issue. + +3. The burden of proof is on the one who asserts the fact, whether it is +stated affirmatively or negatively, and its proof is necessary to his +making a case. + +4. The best evidence that the case in its nature affords must be produced. + +5. Mere hearsay evidence shall not be allowed, excepting: + +(a) Matters of public or general interest. + +(b) Declaration against interest. + +(c) Dying declarations. + +(d) The testimony of witnesses since dead or absent. + +(e) Admissions. + +(f) Confessions. + +*220.* _Competent Witness._--Everybody who has the use of reason and +understands the import of an oath is a competent witness. + +*221.* _Confessions, Secret Societies._--At common law, confessions were +admissible; but there is no case in the United States since 1813 where the +court has sent a priest to jail for contempt for refusing to disclose a +confession, and no case in which a priest disclosed a confession. +Immediately after a priest was committed for contempt for refusing to +divulge the secrets of the confessional, in 1813, New York enacted the +following law: "No minister of the gospel, or priest of any denomination +whatsoever, shall be allowed to disclose any confession made to him in his +professional character, in the course of discipline enjoined by the rules +or practice of such denomination." A similar law has been adopted in the +following States and Territories: Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, +Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, North +Dakota, Ohio, New York, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, +Wisconsin, Wyoming, and Hawaii. The secrets of a secret society are not +privileged, and a member as a witness must answer all relevant questions +in court.(396) + +*222.* _Privilege, Answer._--When a question concerning a matter privileged +is put, the priest should say: "I claim my privilege as a clergyman and +ask the court not to require me to answer"; "Whatever he said concerning +the matter, was said to me in the confessional as a priest"; "I talked +with him about the matter only in my professional capacity as a priest and +confessor"; "I did not speak to him about the matter except in my +confidential capacity as priest;" or a similar statement that sets up the +clergyman's privilege without giving facts. A clergyman should not say: +"He confessed it to me," or "He told it to me in confession," or give any +other answer that implies what was said in confession, as jurors are +always watching for a hint of what was said. Neither should the priest +say, "I refuse to answer," without stating that he refuses because of his +privilege as a clergyman. The trial judge or the attorneys trying the case +may put proper questions to determine whether the information was given +the witness in the confessional or in his capacity as confessor.(397) + +*223.* _Admissions, False Statements._--Admissions or statements made to a +clergyman not in his capacity of confidential adviser or in the course of +discipline, are not privileged.(398) Neither are false statements made to +a committee investigating charges; but all statements made to such a +committee or an officer of the church, unless false and made with malice, +are privileged.(399) + +*224.* _Anonymous Letter, Clergyman._--Where a priest received an anonymous +letter alleged to have been written by a defendant, which he read to her, +he was not disqualified from testifying that she was excited and that she +stated she had no idea how the fire started, and that the letter was +unknown to her, etc.(400) The mere fact that a communication is made to a +clergyman does not make it privileged. It is privileged only when made in +confidence of the relation and under such circumstances as to imply that +it should forever remain a secret in the breast of the confidential +adviser.(401) When a matter is privileged, it is not left to the witness +whether or not he shall testify concerning it; but he can not testify +without the consent of the other party.(402) + +*225.* _Voire Dire._--Where a priest made a preliminary examination of a +woman to ascertain her mental capacity to make a confession, her answers +in such preliminary examination were admissible in a contest on a will; +but her confession was not admissible.(403) + +*226.* _England, Confession._--The rule is now accorded priests in England, +but was not formerly. Where a priest turned a watch over to its owner, the +court ordered him, under pain of contempt, to tell where he got the +watch.(404) But in another case it was held that a priest need not divulge +the confession of a defendant who was held for crime.(405) + +*227.* _United States, Rules._--In the United States courts, the rule +prevails that such confidential communications to a priest shall not be +divulged.(406) + +*228.* _Presumptions, Usage._--The usage of a church or the laws of its +organization as a religious society, if they are to be considered in +deciding legal controversies, must be proved as facts.(407) In the absence +of proof, it will be presumed that subordinate bodies, as congregations, +can not dissolve their connection with the principal organization without +permission.(408) + +*229.* _Funeral Expenses._--Witnesses' opinions as to the reasonable amount +for burial or as to the cost of a funeral being reasonable, are not +binding on a court or jury. The station of a man, the property that he +leaves, the life that he has followed, all should be considered by the +court. The whims and notions of societies and others are of minor +consideration. Those who make funeral expenses that are not allowed by the +court must pay them.(409) + + + + + +CHAPTER XIX. CONTRACTS + + +*230.* _Business, Religious Service._--A church organization has the legal +right to make any contract concerning its own affairs that is not +prohibited by its by-laws or its charter, subject to all laws of legal +contracts in the business world. When the consideration is a religious +service duly performed, there seems to be no objection to it. Therefore, a +minister may collect for preaching a sermon, attending the sick, or saying +prayers, or performing any other religious service. But an incorporated +church has no authority to enter into a contract for an ulterior purpose, +such as the employment of a vessel for the purpose of an excursion.(410) + +*231.* _Incorporated Body._--The only way a religious society that is +incorporated can make a contract is by a vote of the aggregate body or of +the board of trustees, or through an agent authorized by a vote of one +body or the other.(411) + +*232.* _Mortgage, Deficiency Judgment._--Where a mortgage had been +foreclosed against church property before the congregation was +incorporated, a deficiency judgment can not be rendered against such +church corporation.(412) But where a congregation was incorporated after a +debt had been incurred and took charge of the property, it assumed the +debt.(413) + +*233.* _Building Contracts._--The taking part in a meeting by voting and +appointing committees to make contracts will bind those taking part in all +contracts made in accordance with the directions of such meeting. In some +States the individuals are held only to the amount that each subscribes, +but in other States each individual is liable for the entire debt.(414) + +*234.* _Individual Promise, Subscriptions, Signature._--An individual +promise to give a donation to charity, can not be enforced.(415) But +subscriptions to build a church or other charitable institution or to pay +the salary of a clergyman when signed by more than one person, have been +held binding in some cases on the disputed rule of a-promise-for-a-promise +consideration.(416) In the foregoing cases the donor might revoke his +subscription or in case of his death his estate would not be liable.(417) +However, when expenses have been made or steps taken in the carrying out +of the object of the subscriptions, the general rule is that the +subscriptions become binding contracts.(418) If the object of the +subscriptions be abandoned or changed without the consent of the +subscriber, he is thereby released. A promissory note given for the +subscription, unless negotiated for value in due course of trade, does not +change the foregoing rules.(419) Where many persons subscribed to build a +church and some of them failed to pay, one who paid brought an action on +behalf of himself and others and collected the unpaid subscriptions.(420) +The defendant Nalty signed "Nalty Family, $1,000," but he was held +personally liable.(421) + +*235.* _Special Purpose, Suit._--When money is subscribed for a special +purpose, as for rebuilding a church, it belongs to the church +organization; and in a suit to recover the money the action should be +brought in the name of the corporation, if incorporated, and if not +incorporated it should be brought in the name of the interested +party.(422) + +*236.* _Promise, Consideration._--A promise made by the owner of land to a +trustee for the benefit of a religious society, that he would convey the +land to such society if it would build a church thereon, is a good and +lawful consideration; and after work was begun on the church, the contract +was enforceable in a court of equity.(423) + + + + + +CHAPTER XX. PEWS + + +*237.* _Sold, Rented._--Prior to the Reformation pews were not sold nor +rented and every member had the right to sit wherever he pleased in the +body of the church. After the Reformation, the ordinary or bishop was +granted the right of "faculty" to rent or sell pews.(424) + +*238.* _Incorporeal Hereditament._--The English title in a pew is in the +nature of a right of way through another's land; it is an incorporeal +hereditament. In the absence of express law, the title to pews in this +country is said to be in the nature of real estate, and in fact not very +different from the English title.(425) In some States the title is made +personal property by statute.(426) And in others the courts have inquired +into the law of the church and adjudged the title accordingly.(427) The +general rule is that the owner of a pew simply has an easement.(428) + +*239.* _Catholic Church, Pew Rights._--In the Catholic Church, by the canon +law, the ownership in or control over a pew is forbidden to laymen. +Notwithstanding that, if the party holding the title violates the rule of +the church by giving a deed to the pew-holder, the courts would probably +sustain his title.(429) However, as the clergy can neither rent nor sell +pews without becoming subject to the law of the land and the jurisdiction +of our courts, it is important to know what the law of the State is. + +*240.* _Land, Use, Rent Pews._--Where land was conveyed in trust to the +bishop of a diocese and his successors for the erection of a church for +the use of a congregation, the right to rent pews vested under the deed +and laws of the Catholic Church in the parish priest and not in the +trustees afterward elected, as the parish priest was the agent of the +bishop.(430) + +*241.* _Trustees, Sale in Perpetuity._--Without authority of law the +trustees of a church can not make an absolute sale in perpetuity of a pew +without any reservation of rent.(431) The sale of a pew in a church will +be determined in a case according to the particular facts.(432) + +*242.* _Pew, Right to Occupy, Conditions._--A grant of a church pew in +perpetuity does not give the owner an absolute right of property as a +grant of land in fee; but gives only a right to sit therein, although he +may maintain an action in court for protection of his rights.(433) In +Vermont a pewholder has only the right to occupy his seat during religious +services and holds it subject to the superior right of the society owning +the pew.(434) A condition in the deed to a pew that a holder about to +leave the congregation shall offer it to the society for a certain price, +is not invalid.(435) Where a pewholder held his pew by a certain agreement +and after the church had been remodeled he bought a different pew, the +conditions attached to the first pew did not apply to the last.(436) Pews +owned by the occupant pass to the heirs as real estate instead of going to +the executors as personal property in States where the title is in the +nature of the title to real estate.(437) + +*243.* _Tax, Assessment._--A tax assessed upon the pew of a religious +corporation in part for purposes not specifically named in a deed of the +pew, which alone gives the power to make such an assessment and which +strictly defines and limits such power, is invalid _in toto_.(438) The +right to make an assessment on pews must be founded upon law, else it can +not be enforced.(439) When a congregation sells pews at auction rent free +for the purpose of building a church, it has no power thereafter to assess +the pews for the salary of the minister.(440) + +*244.* _Pewholders' Rights._--A pewholder has the exclusive right to occupy +his pew when the house is used for the purpose for which it was erected; +but he can not convert his pew to other purposes not contemplated.(441) If +he has paid his pew-rent according to agreement, he is entitled to use his +pew on all occasions when the house is occupied, even when it is open for +purposes different from those mentioned in the conveyance thereof; and he +has the right to exclude all others from his pew by fastening the door or +otherwise, and any one who enters his pew knowing the facts, is a +trespasser and liable to an action for damages.(442) The owner of a pew +has no right to put an offensive covering thereon nor use his pew in any +way to the annoyance of the congregation or not in keeping with the place +and conditions. By placing anything offensive about his pew, he may be +liable for maintaining a nuisance, and such offensive thing may be +removed; but, as far as possible, it must be removed without damaging the +pewholder's property.(443) + +*245.* _Rebuilding, Remodeling._--An injunction was granted on the bill of +pewholders, restraining the authorities of the church from pulling it +down, as they were going to use the materials in the erection of a new +church on a different site. On the answer, the injunction was dissolved on +the ground that if the complainants had rights which would be violated, +there was a remedy at law and that the nature and extent of the injury +were not such as called for the interposition of a court of equity by +injunction.(444) Where a parish abandons an old church and builds a new +one it does not become liable to any pewholder for damages by reason +thereof unless it has acted wantonly or intentionally to injure the +pewholder.(445) But when it becomes necessary for the purpose of repairing +or remodeling a church, to destroy old pews, a pew built by a member under +contract with the church can not be removed or destroyed without +compensation.(446) Pew rights are subject to the right of the parish to +pull down and rebuild a church either as a matter of necessity or +expediency, but in the latter case the owner of a pew is entitled to +payment.(447) A pewholder has only the right to occupy his pew during +public worship, and when the church has become so out of repair that it +can not be used for public worship, the owner of a pew can recover only +nominal damages for injuries to his pew.(448) + +*246.* _Selling Pew on Execution._--In an action to recover the value of a +pew sold at auction, the merits of the case will be tried according to the +law of the land.(449) It is doubtful whether a pew in a church can be sold +for private debts of the pewholder.(450) It depends somewhat upon the +title and State law of exemptions.(451) To render an attachment of a pew +valid, it is not necessary for the officer to come in sight of the pew or +even to enter the church.(452) + +*247.* _Members, Pew._--Members of the congregation may be required to pay +for a pew or sitting in the church, and where a priest ejected a member +from the church because he would not rent a pew, he was sustained by the +court.(453) + +*248.* _Free Church, Seats, Lease._--The trustees of a free church may +assign seats and forcibly remove one from a seat without authority.(454) +Where a pew is real estate, a pewholder may acquire the right to it by +prescription in the usual way.(455) Where pews are not rented and the +members support the church by voluntary subscriptions, they have equal +right to the occupancy of the pews. But where the church builds the pews +and rents them, a man paying rent for a pew holds it under lease in the +nature of a lease to real estate. However, he does not obtain all the +rights of a lessee of land, and in many cases a rule of the church governs +the holding of pews, which will be observed by the State courts.(456) + +*249.* _Executors, Pew-Rent._--The executors of a pew owner are not bound +to pay pew-rent accrued after the owner's death. + +*250.* _Voting, Pew-Rent, Arrears._--Where a church is incorporated and by +its charter or the laws of the State it has authority to make reasonable +by-laws, a by-law which prohibits any person from voting whose pew-rent is +in arrears for more than two years, is valid.(457) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXI. PROPERTY + + +*251.* _Unincorporated, Trustee._--The question whether an unincorporated +religious society may take a gift or devise, is determined by the law of +domicile.(458) Generally an unincorporated religious association can not +hold property in its assumed name, but it must be held by conveyance in +trust to a trustee named.(459) + +*252.* _Charter, By-Laws._--When the charter or by-laws of a church +corporation provide that they may be altered, such changes may, after the +execution and delivery of a deed, immediately adhere to the title.(460) + +*253.* _Suits, Corporation, Members._--Cases may occur in which the +corporation in its corporate capacity, or the society in its collective +capacity, may be a plaintiff or a defendant in a suit between it and one +or more members of the religious society in their individual capacity or +in their collective capacity, in a quasi-conspiracy or concerning other +torturous acts, or a collective contract.(461) + +*254.* _Deed, Court, Title._--A deed made in pursuance of an order of a +court having jurisdiction passes good title.(462) + +*255.* _Subscription, Lots._--Any one may convey title to a church as his +part of the subscription by merely marking it on a plat made by him, as +lots donated to such church.(463) + +*256.* _Misnomer, Identity._--The misnomer of a religious society or +corporation will not invalidate a mortgage where the identity of the +society can be clearly shown.(464) + +*257.* _Adverse Possession, Color of Title._--A religious corporation may +obtain title to land by adverse possession. The length of such possession +is determined by the laws of the State, the usual period being twenty +years.(465) Unless the laws of the State require it, color of title at the +time of asserting adverse possession need not be shown.(466) + +*258.* _Sale, Restrictions._--In some States when not restricted by the +laws of the organization the parish corporation may sell the premises in +order to pay the church debts. However, it is not a common law right.(467) + +*259.* _Deed._--A deed to "The Evangelical Order of Christians" was +sufficiently definite for a valid conveyance.(468) + +*260.* _Error._--A clerical error in the name of the grantee will not make +a deed void. However, when such error has been discovered, it should be +corrected.(469) + +*261.* _Mortgage, Bishop, Debts._--The archbishop of a church to which +property is bequeathed, can not mortgage it without authority from the +church or under the law.(470) Also, the bishop of a diocese to whom land +had been conveyed in trust for a particular congregation, could not +execute a valid mortgage thereon to secure his own indebtedness.(471) But +a religious society in the absence of prohibitionary legislation, has +power to mortgage its property to secure its debts.(472) + +*262.* _Deed, Trust, Fee._--A deed of land to a Catholic bishop and his +heirs and assigns forever in trust for a Catholic parish for the purpose +of a free burial ground, gave the bishop an estate in fee.(473) + +*263.* _Debts, Creditors._--A committee of a religious society authorized +to sell lands to raise money to pay its general debts, is not authorized +to execute a mortgage for the purpose of securing various creditors +holding claims; and the defect in such mortgage is not cured by a vote at +a subsequent meeting to which the committee made a report of its +action.(474) + +*264.* _Mortgage or Sale, Notice, Consent._--Whenever there is to be a +mortgage or sale of the church property, if it is to be done by the +corporation, it must be done strictly in accordance with the charter and +laws of the corporation, and if those do not provide therefor, every +member should receive a reasonable notice to attend a meeting of the +congregation and the question should be submitted to such meeting and a +vote taken thereon. If all the proceedings are regular and the proper +officers (president and secretary) of the corporation be authorized to +make a conveyance, it is good in law.(475) However, if the irregular acts +of officers or members of a congregation are subsequently ratified in a +lawful manner, they become binding.(476) When consent of the court is +required, it must be obtained.(477) + +*265.* _Title, Taxes, Judicial Notice._--If the title is in the bishop in +fee in accordance with church law it is not "owned by any religious +association" and is liable for taxes. The laws of the Catholic Church are +not the subject of judicial notice, but must be alleged and proved as any +other fact.(478) + +*266.* _Title, Diocese, Rule._--Where the title to the property of the +diocese was in the bishop for the use of the church and subsequently the +diocese was incorporated, the bishop was not divested of title and it was +still necessary to have the property conveyed by deed.(479) In some other +States, however, the contrary rule prevails.(480) + +*267.* _Priest, Deed, Funds._--Where it was claimed that a priest purchased +lands and took the deed in his own name and paid therefor with funds +belonging to the congregation, the conveyance will not be decreed by the +court only upon the clearest and most satisfactory evidence.(481) + +*268.* _Monks, Missions, Title._--The fact that the monks or priests were +at the head of the missions in California when it was acquired by the +United States, does not prove that the Catholic Church had universal +ownership of the property.(482) The acts of Congress giving the city of +San Antonio authority to sell public lands, was intended, no doubt, to +dispose of mission property, but it was held not to affect the Catholic +Church, the title to which had been confirmed by another act of +Congress.(483) + +*269.* _Texan Revolution, Land._--At the time of the Texan Revolution, a +Catholic church held no real estate of perfect title, but enjoyed only the +use of the land that it possessed and continued so to occupy after the +admission of Texas into the Union.(484) + +*270.* _Priest, Agent, Deed._--The priest in charge of a congregation is +the agent of the archbishop, and where the title to the real estate is +conveyed by absolute deed to the bishop, the congregation, against the +protest of the priest and without obtaining leave from the bishop, has no +right to tear down a church for the purpose of rebuilding or repairing +it.(485) And a priest in charge of mission property may maintain in his +name an action to recover its possession.(486) + +*271.* _Devise, Uncertainty._--A devise of property "to the Roman Catholic +Orphans" of a certain diocese, making the bishop of the diocese executor +of the will and giving him power to sell the property and use the proceeds +for the benefit of the Roman Catholic orphans, is void for +uncertainty.(487) + +*272.* _Donor, Ambiguous Provision._--The religious convictions of the +donor may be shown for the purpose of construing an ambiguous provision of +a deed or will.(488) + +*273.* _Trust, Evidence._--Without any trust being declared in writing, +parol evidence can not be allowed to prove that the Catholic Church and +parsonage is held in trust for the congregation by the bishop of the +diocese, notwithstanding that the moneys for purchasing the lands and +putting up such buildings were collected by subscriptions and +contributions made to the priest in charge under the law, usage, and +polity of the Roman Catholic Church.(489) At common law land may be +granted to pious uses before there is a grantee to take it. In the +meantime, the title is in abeyance.(490) Where the title to parsonage +lands is in the minister as a sole corporation, on his death the title +remains in abeyance until a successor is appointed.(491) + +*274.* _Money, Control._--Money raised by a Catholic congregation for the +purpose of building a church does not come under the absolute control of +the bishop or priest, although put into the hands of the latter for safe +keeping. It is subject to the control of the congregation, although the +members of the congregation refused to obey the command of the bishop of +the diocese to consolidate with another church to which the priest was +removed.(492) + +*275.* _Church, Building, Removing._--Where subscriptions were secured to +build a church at a particular place as a memorial to a certain person, a +congregation may be enjoined from tearing down the building and removing +it to another place.(493) But a court of equity will not prevent the +removal of a church where a majority of the congregation favors it, +although a legal meeting had not been held to determine the matter.(494) + +*276.* _Church, Use, Division._--A church guild that erected a building +adjoining a church for parish purposes, with the assent of the +congregation, can not deny the authority of the church and use the +building for other purposes.(495) But if members are improperly excluded +from the use of the church property they must appeal to the courts for +redress and can not resort to acts of trespass to gain entrance into a +church.(496) A court of equity will compel persons having charge of the +temporalities of a church, whether incorporated or not, to faithfully +perform their trust and to prevent the diversion of the property from its +original purposes. The court will not interfere in strictly religious +matters.(497) + +*277.* _Spanish Territory._--When Alabama was a part of Spanish territory, +a deed of land "to His Catholic Majesty for the purpose of building +thereon a parochial church and dwelling-house for the officiating priest," +the money being paid out of the royal treasury, did not constitute the +King of Spain a trustee for the church or transfer to the church in equity +a title to the lots.(498) + +*278.* _Trust, Purposes, Doctrines._--When a conveyance of a lot is made to +certain persons of a religious society and their successors in trust for +religious purposes, all the members become beneficiaries in equal degree +notwithstanding some of them may have contributed larger sums than +others.(499) Land conveyed to a church for valuable consideration belongs +to the church, whatever change may take place in its religious doctrines; +and if a minority secedes on the ground that they are the ones who retain +the original tenets of the church, they can not take with them either the +whole or pro rata share of the church property.(500) + +*279.* _Control, Revenues._--The trustees of a corporation of a church or +of a religious society have entire control over the revenues of such +body.(501) + +*280.* _Leave to Purchase, Title, Canons of the Church._--A congregation +wanted to buy a church and priest's house, but the archbishop refused +leave to purchase, but granted permission to keep the premises for +religious purposes for a time. The members formed a society and bought and +took title in the name of the "Lithuanian Benefit Society of St. Anthony." +Then the archbishop wrote them a letter requiring the deed of the premises +to be put in his name, which the congregation refused to do. A part of the +congregation brought a suit in equity to enforce the transfer from the +society to the archbishop. The court held that if the congregation was +under the church and acknowledged its authority, the title must be settled +by the canons of the church; otherwise, the majority of the congregation, +in a duly called meeting, should determine where the title should be +vested.(502) + +*281.* _Cemetery, Authority._--When a congregation that had title to a +cemetery for many years entrusted the management and sale of the lots to +the priest, he had thereby authority to create servitudes, such as alleys +to lots, which become binding on the congregation and all third +persons.(503) + +*282.* _Real Estate, Purpose._--A church has no power to acquire and hold +real estate for any purpose other than that of promoting the object of its +creation, and any contract entered into for a purchase of real estate as a +matter of speculation is _ultra vires_ and void.(504) + +*283.* _Limitation, Lands._--A statute of the State prohibiting a religious +society from holding more than twenty acres, applies to a single parish or +congregation and not to the entire denomination when it consists of more +than one congregation.(505) + +*284.* _Conditions, Bequest, Deed, Time._--Where property has been devised +for a particular purpose or on certain conditions attached thereto, the +law may be invoked to protect the fund according to the bequest.(506) And +where a deed contained a clause that the lots should never be sold nor +used in any other way except for the benefit of a specified Protestant +Church, although the deed contained no clause of forfeiture, when the +congregation sold the property the grantor was entitled to have the deed +set aside and the title re-vested in himself.(507) And a grant made upon +condition that a church be erected thereon, prevents the grantee from +conveying it for other purposes without the consent of the grantor or his +heirs.(508) But where a devise was made on condition that a church be +built on the property within three years, the provision being a condition +subsequent, a court has the right to extend the time.(509) + +*285.* _Will, Forfeiture._--The provision in a will or deed that land shall +be used for purposes of a certain church, may create a trust for the +benefit of the church only and not a condition the breach of which would +work a forfeiture.(510) When a condition is put in a deed that it shall be +forever used as a burial ground for the interment of bodies, it is +doubtful whether the grantor and grantee together may change the uses of +the property. Therefore, it is important in taking deeds to cemeteries to +have no condition whatever, unless such conditions are desired.(511) + +*286.* _Condition, Quit-Claim._--After conveying land upon a specified +condition, the grantor then gave a quit-claim deed, and the court held +that that relieved the grant from the condition.(512) + +*287.* _Bishop, Trust, Successors._--A deed of land to the bishop of a +church for a Protestant Episcopal church in fee simple, created a trust +and on the death of such bishop the title passed to his successors.(513) +Where a grantee in a deed absolute on its face, is in fact archbishop of +the Roman Catholic Church for his diocese, its canons and decrees +regulating the mode of acquiring and holding church property are competent +evidence to show that the property is so held in trust for purposes for +public worship and other charitable uses. And property so held by a +Catholic bishop in trust for the diocese, or in trust for a congregation, +school, cemetery, or asylum, for the separate use of each, is not +chargeable with any part of the expenses of another one or for improving +the church property generally in the diocese.(514) + +*288.* _Trustees, Vacancy._--When land is conveyed to certain persons as +trustees of a church and their successors lawfully appointed, a court of +equity will not step in to fill a vacancy but will leave that to be filled +by the church in accordance with its discipline.(515) But an attempt to +sell real estate of a religious society against the provisions of its +charter, will be prevented by a court of equity.(516) + +*289.* _Church, Majority, Change._--When property is conveyed to a church +having a well-known doctrine, faith, and practice, a majority of the +members has not the authority or power by reason of a change of religious +views to carry the property thus dedicated to a new and different +doctrine.(517) + +*290.* _Title, Harmony, Division._--The title to church property in a +divided congregation is in that part of the congregation which acts in +harmony with the law of the denomination; and the ecclesiastical laws and +principles which were accepted among them before the dispute began, are +the standard for determining which party is right.(518) In other cases the +division of church property, where there is a division of the +congregation, depends upon its particular facts.(519) Where $400 was +bequeathed to a Lutheran congregation in S----, there being at the time of +the making of the will but one Lutheran congregation in the place, but +subsequently a majority of the trustees and members with the pastor left +the church and built a new one, the old church continued vested with the +title to the property and all its funds.(520) + +*291.* _Perversion, Misuse, Suit._--Unless there is substantial departure +from the purpose of the trust which amounts to a perversion of it, a court +of equity will not interfere to prevent the misuse or abuse of a trust of +a religious nature. In actions in the State court, if the church is not +incorporated, an action should be brought in the names of the members +collectively, and if they are too numerous to be all named, the suit may +be brought in the name of one or more of them for the whole. The same +rules apply to religious societies when sued. However, in some dioceses, +particularly in the Catholic Church, the title to the church property is +in the bishop and he thereby becomes an interested party who must be made +either a plaintiff or a defendant.(521) + +*292.* _Rights, Contracts, Torts, Crimes._--Vested property rights, +contracts, torts, and crimes, are usually subject to the laws of the State +and the control and judgment of a church tribunal is seldom final. While +the State courts have no ecclesiastical jurisdiction and can not revise or +question ordinary acts of church discipline, they have the power to +adjudicate conflicting claims of parties to the church property or the use +of it.(522) + +*293.* _Cemetery, Assessments._--Where a lot was bought for the purpose of +building a church but was used for a cemetery, and a church was built at +another place and the deed to the lot was taken in the name of the +trustees, the pastor and a member of the church corporation were not the +proper parties to bring an action to restrain the State from selling the +lot to pay the assessments for pavement, as they had no legal or equitable +interest for the protection of which they could claim the interposition of +a court of equity.(523) + +*294.* _Burned, Revert, Vested._--The fact that a church on lands donated +to the parish, on condition of sustaining the church, burned down, the +title did not revert to the grantor's heirs.(524) Also land granted a +bishop for church uses, vested immediately in him and was not forfeited +because it was not used for church purposes.(525) + +*295.* _Abandoned, Revert._--Land granted to trustees and their successors +forever in trust to erect a Methodist church, according to its rules and +discipline, which was used for such church for a long time and then +abandoned and sold to parties who converted it into a blacksmith shop, did +not thereupon revert in the absence of a provision to that effect.(526) + +*296.* _Uses and Trusts._--The chapter of the Wisconsin statutes on +religious societies, although not included in the same title as the +chapter abolishing all uses and trusts excepting as therein created, was +not intended to prohibit the trusts expressly authorized by the +former.(527) + +*297.* _Trust Funds, Account._--Where a member of the church received funds +to invest in his own name for the benefit of the church, he will be +obliged in a court of equity to give full account for the money and its +profits.(528) + +*298.* _Fund, Diverted, Split._--A fund created for a particular purpose, +as the education of children in the faith and doctrines of a denomination +at the time the fund is created, can not be diverted from its original +object.(529) Neither can such a fund be split up when a congregation is +divided, but must be retained as created.(530) + +*299.* _Church, Personalty._--A church removed from its foundation and put +on rollers was severed from the realty and became personal property.(531) + +*300.* _Lease, Purposes._--A religious literary society and scientific +corporation has power to lease part of a building owned by it for +theatrical and operatic purposes.(532) + +*301.* _Salary, Lien, Equity._--The church building and the land on which +it stands have been held subject to the payment of a debt due for the +salary of a pastor of the congregation owning such property.(533) A +contractor is entitled to a lien on the church property for work done on +the building.(534) A person who became liable for the debts of the +congregation incurred in the purchase of church property, obtained relief +in equity by subjecting the church property to a sale.(535) + +*302.* _Bankruptcy, Creditors._--There is no provision of law for a church +corporation to make an assignment in bankruptcy. However, the church +corporation may be sued and a receiver appointed to take possession of the +property and sequester the assets.(536) But where assignments in +bankruptcy and a sale and conveyance of church property are lawful, the +church property may be assigned for the benefit of the creditors.(537) + +*303.* _Jurisdiction, Process._--In order to obtain jurisdiction where +there are contentions between various persons claiming to be officers, the +only safe rule is to serve the process on all those who are in the offices +or claim the offices upon the occupants of which the papers must be +served.(538) + +*304.* _States, Property, Restrictions._--Some States restrict the quantity +and use of property that a religious society or church may hold. Other +States have no restrictions; but nearly all the States have some statutory +law on the subject, which is changed so frequently that it would be +useless to give the provisions of such law in this work.(539) + +*305.* _Land, Limitation._--A statute of Illinois relating to Catholic +societies contains no limitations on property rights, but it was held that +the general law applied, and that an organization having ten acres could +not acquire additional land by devise. A conveyance of land to a +corporation after it has taken all the land allowed by law, is void.(540) +In Kentucky where a church is limited to fifty acres and a devise was made +to a church for the benefit of foreign missions, it was held valid under a +statute providing that all devises for relief of aged, impotent, poor +people, churches, or for any other charitable or humane purposes, shall be +valid.(541) Maryland's peculiar law by which leave must be obtained from +the Legislature for a conveyance of more than two acres of land, has been +construed to give the Legislature authority to ratify a conveyance that +otherwise would be void under the statute.(542) Also, it was held in the +same case that a church might acquire more land, but that it would be +restricted with regard to its use. A statute prohibiting a religious +society from holding more than twenty acres of land applied to a single +religious society and not to the denomination.(543) Where the territorial +law provided that no religious corporation should hold real estate of +greater value than $50,000, a receiver was appointed for the Mormon +corporation.(544) + +*306.* _Corporations, Bequests._--Foreign religious corporations may be +entitled to recover bequests made to them in some States; but the general +rule is that a foreign religious society has no better right to take +property by devise than a domestic corporation.(545) When the statute +requires a conveyance to specify the purpose for which a religious society +takes land, the failure to so specify renders the deed void.(546) But the +Young Men's Christian Association was declared not within the limitation +because it was not formed for pecuniary benefit and profit and was not +under the control of any one denomination nor formed for religious +worship.(547) + +*307.* _Collateral Attack._--A devise of land to a religious society which +will increase the title beyond the amount that is allowed by statute, can +not be attacked collaterally by a private individual.(548) It is for the +State and not for the individual to make inquiry into excess on the part +of a religious society in its accumulation.(549) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXII. RELIGIOUS SERVICES + + +*308.* _Worship, Discipline, Innovations._--The denomination itself, +according to its rules and regulations, determines what services shall +form a part of its public worship. The inferior authority in the church +has no right to violate the discipline by innovations. Whether or not +devotional singing may be accompanied with instrumental music, must be +determined by those who administer the discipline of the church.(550) + +*309.* _Doctrines, Temporal Affairs._--The fact that the congregation sells +the pews does not give the owners the right to determine what doctrines +shall be preached in the church, nor who shall preach them.(551) A +majority of a local church can not change the faith of the church against +the protest of the minority.(552) The corporation of the congregation is +governed by the majority only in temporal affairs.(553) However, some of +the Protestant churches are so independent that a vote of the congregation +may transfer them from one denomination to another.(554) + +*310.* _Contributions, Presbyterians, Methodists._--Where certain persons +by contributions built a church and the title was taken and held by the +Presbyterians who permitted all other denominations to hold services +therein, all of which was a condition of the subscriptions for +establishing the church, when the Presbyterians sold out to the Methodists +and they held it for their own exclusive use, those who contributed the +money had the right to resort to the court to enforce their rights to +worship in such church.(555) + +*311.* _True Religion, Courts._--Ordinarily the civil courts do not +interfere where there is a question as to which of two or more parties is +adhering to the true religious teaching of the denomination. If no +question of property or civil rights arises, the court will not +interfere.(556) + +*312.* _Heresy, Injunction._--Where a minister did not preach the doctrine +and the entire system of Calvinistic theology received and taught by that +denomination, he had no right to the pulpit of the church, and the court +granted an injunction against his officiating therein.(557) + +*313.* _Bequest, Sects, Condition._--Where a bequest was made to erect a +place of worship with the privilege for other sects to worship therein and +forever to be used as such, the trustees in whom the title vested had no +authority to sell without the consent of the grantor or his heirs; and the +congregation having sold the church property and it having been thereafter +used for a store, the grantor's heirs had a right of entry for condition +broken.(558) + +*314.* _Sexton, Undertaker, Authorities._--The sexton who has charge of the +church property may lawfully remove from the church an undertaker who, +after being warned to desist and leave, persists in conducting the funeral +in violation of rules prescribed by the authorities of the church.(559) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXIII. BEQUESTS, DEVISES, AND GIFTS + + +*315.* _Statutes, Wills._--In some States a religious society can not take +under a will, and a bequest of money to a church is void.(560) In +Connecticut any devise to a religious corporation not expressly authorized +by statute, is void.(561) In Maryland leave to devise land to a religious +society must be obtained from the Legislature.(562) In all the States it +is safest to consult and carefully follow the statute in drawing a will. + +*316.* _Masses, Alabama._--Formerly as a rule of the English common law, it +was held that bequests and devises for the purpose of having Masses said +for the soul of the deceased, were void as superstitious uses; but under +Article 1 of the Amendments to the United States Constitution, and under +similar provisions in the constitutions of the several States, the English +rule does not prevail in the United States. However, Alabama adopted the +English rule.(563) By reading the foot-note to the Alabama case, it will +be found that a majority of the States hold that such bequests are +lawful.(564) Even in Alabama if the bequest had been to a clergyman or a +certain person and accompanied by a request to say Masses, the court might +have allowed it.(565) + +*317.* _Name, Bequest, Corporation._--A mistake in a name does not render a +bequest or a gift void if the person intended can be identified.(566) +Also, a devise may be made to a corporation not yet organized and when it +is organized the gift or devise will vest. During the interim, it will +remain in abeyance.(567) + +*318.* _Clergyman, Undue Influence._--A clergyman who is a grantee in a +deed from a parishioner, although deriving no benefit therefrom, has the +burden of showing good faith in the transaction as the law presumes that +he is guilty of undue influence. This presumption is further strengthened +by proof of the enfeebled condition of the grantor by age and illness and +his susceptibleness to influence. Where the property conveyed in trust for +the parish was greatly in excess of its needs, the deed was set +aside.(568) + +*319.* _Contest, Secession._--In case of a devise to a church which is +claimed by two societies, it is the duty of the court to decide in favor +of those who adhere to the ecclesiastical government of the church which +was in operation at the time the trust was declared.(569) However, to +maintain such action it must be brought by the proper parties.(570) + +*320.* _Bequests, Membership._--Bequests left to individuals on condition +that they shall remain members of a certain church, can be obtained only +by complying with such condition.(571) + +*321.* _Conditions, Religious Tenets._--In order to determine the +conditions of a trust the religious tenets of the donor may be shown to +aid in construction of ambiguous provisions.(572) + +*322.* _Name, Uncertainty._--A bequest to Georgetown University, in the +District of Columbia, which was incorporated under the name of "The +President and Directors of Georgetown College," is not void for +uncertainty, as the only institution of learning in the District of +Columbia is Georgetown College.(573) + +*323.* _Future Uses, Uncertainty._--A devise to a foundling or eleemosynary +institution, whenever the Christians should create one which the trustees +approved, is valid.(574) And a devise to the "First Christian church +erected or to be erected in the village of Telfairville, in Burke county, +or to such persons as may become trustees of the same," is good as a +charitable bequest.(575) A bequest to a priest to hold in trust and pay +over to the Sisters for the Poor, is valid.(576) A bequest for the care of +a tombstone is valid in some States and not in others without a statutory +provision.(577) A bequest to the bishop "to be by him used for Roman +Catholic charitable institutions in his diocese," sufficiently describes +the beneficiaries and is good.(578) Also, a bequest to Bishop England "in +trust for the Ladies of the Ursuline Order residing in Charleston in the +State of South Carolina," was held for "The Ladies of the Ursuline +Community of the city of Charleston."(579) A bequest for Masses "to a +Roman Catholic priest that shall succeed me in this place," was held void +for uncertainty.(580) A bequest in trust to a bishop by name to sell and +give the proceeds to a society named, is not a devise to the society, but +to the bishop in trust.(581) + +*324.* _Education, Priesthood._--A devise or bequest to a clergyman of +property to be used for the education of poor Catholic boys for the +priesthood, was sustained in court as sufficiently definite for +performance.(582) + +*325.* _Charitable Trust, Cy-Pres._--Equity will not allow a charitable +trust to fail for want of a trustee, but will appoint one.(583) The +doctrine of _cy-pres_ as applied to charitable gifts and trusts, is not in +force in Alabama, Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Maryland, Iowa, New +York, North Carolina, nor Wisconsin; but seems to prevail in California, +Illinois, Massachusetts, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island. + +*326.* _Error, Ambiguity._--Great latitude is allowed in charitable +bequests, devises, and gifts, in proving _aliunde_ the beneficiary +intended where there is error in the name or a latent ambiguity.(584) The +religion of the testator will be considered in proving intention. + +*327.* _Dissolution, Resulting Trust._--On dissolution of a religious +society, the money collected or derived from the sale of property goes +back as a resulting trust to the contributors.(585) + +*328.* _Charity, Institutions._--To determine what is a charitable trust, +devise, or gift, it is necessary to particularly bear in mind the most +comprehensive definition of charity. Legacies for schools, churches, +libraries, cemeteries, the poor, hospitals, and numerous other +eleemosynary institutions, have been sustained under charitable bequests +when they otherwise would have failed.(586) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXIV. TAXATION + + +*329.* _Purposes, Exempt._--Only church property that is actually used for +church or charitable purposes, is exempt from taxation. Property held for +its increase or profit is not exempt.(587) Land bought for a church on +which no work on the church is yet begun, is not exempt from +taxation.(588) + +*330.* _Lot Isolated, Not Exempt._--A lot isolated from the other property +of the church of a congregation, is not exempt because the congregation +intends to build a church thereon in the future, and actually did build a +church thereon two years later.(589) + +*331.* _Bishop's Residence, Hospital._--Real property the title to which is +in the archbishop in fee in accordance with the discipline of the Catholic +Church, is not owned by a religious association so as to exempt it from +taxation. The records do not show a trust for the diocese nor any other +beneficiary. A court will not take judicial notice of the laws of the +Catholic Church.(590) But property used as a hospital to care for the sick +and wounded of all races and religions indiscriminately, with or without +pay according to the ability of the patient, is a benevolent institution +engaged in a work of charity, and comes under the law of tax +exemption.(591) + +*332.* _Parsonage, Rented._--A parsonage owned by a congregation and used +only as a residence for the clergyman is not exempt because of some part +of it being also used for alleged religious services, to-wit: morning +prayers of the children before school, a sewing society, and a meeting +place for Sunday-school teachers.(592) However, a house and lot rented and +kept by the minister was exempt from taxation.(593) + +*333.* _Masonic Order, Charity, Elks._--A charity which is confined +exclusively to the members of the Masonic Order and their families or to +the widows and children of deceased members or those who are directly or +indirectly connected with the society, is not purely a public charity +within the provisions of the constitution relating to the exemption of +institutions of purely public charity from taxation.(594) And property +held by the Elks for entertainment and to promote social intercourse was +held not exempt.(595) + +*334.* _Supporting Church, Mississippi._--In the early ages of the States +several of them had laws for taxing all the property in parishes laid out +by the State for the support of Protestant churches. Gradually these laws +were eliminated and at the present time there is probably no State +excepting Mississippi that uses money for the support of a church. Maine +changed her laws in 1821, and other States followed from time to +time.(596) While those taxes were collected, no land within the parish was +exempt in some States and in others the property of a non-resident was +exempt.(597) In New Hampshire and Pennsylvania, a person could not be +compelled to pay the taxes to a denomination of which he was not a +member.(598) + +*335.* _Appropriations, Contracts, Rent._--Under the constitution of the +United States, Congress can not make appropriations nor give aid to any +denomination. Also, similar provisions are in many of the constitutions of +the States. However, many cases arise out of contracts, which border upon +these various rules, and in some States the constitutional provision of +the State is such that the State Legislature may legislate concerning +religions and give certain aid and support thereto. Paying rent to a +congregation for a school-room is not an appropriation or aid to a church +contrary to the constitution.(599) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXV. ELEEMOSYNARY INSTITUTIONS + + +*336.* _Poor, Institutions, Negligence._--As hospitals, homes for the poor, +and other eleemosynary institutions are supported by money given to +charity, it would be a diversion of the trust funds if such institutions +could be compelled to pay damages for negligence causing personal injury +or death. The general rule is that the person causing the injury may be +liable, but not the institution.(600) However, a charitable institution +has been held liable for negligence of its manager to notify a nurse of +the contagious nature of a case assigned to her.(601) + +*337.* _Surgeon, Gratuitous Services._--A charitable medical institution is +not liable for the negligence of its surgeon in operating upon a patient +gratuitously where such institution exercises due care in employing a +surgeon deemed competent. The fact that besides such gratuitous services, +medicine is taught therein for tuition fees and patients who are able to +pay are charged a small fee for room, board, nursing, etc., but no fee +from the patient to the doctor, does not change it from a charitable +institution.(602) However, a hospital that is an adjunct to a medical +school is liable.(603) + +*338.* _Charitable Institution._--An institution that limits its +benefactions to the members of a particular denomination is, in the +absence of a statute to the contrary, a charitable institution.(604) This +rule has exceptions.(605) + +*339.* _Charter, Real Estate._--The trustees of a religious, literary, or +other benevolent society, can not, irrespective of the powers granted by +its charter, purchase and hold real estate under trusts of their own +creation which will protect their property from creditors.(606) + +*340.* _Mortmain, Title, Trust._--The statute of mortmain was never in +force in Pennsylvania, so a religious corporation can hold the legal title +to land in trust for the heir-at-law of a testator who has devised it to +the corporation in trust for uses that were void under the English +law.(607) The only States that have statutes of mortmain are Mississippi +and North Carolina. Yet in those States the statutes are somewhat +different from the law of England. + +*341.* _Public Institutions, Support._--Benevolent and charitable +institutions under a church are not public institutions, and moneys can +not be appropriated for their support.(608) + +*342.* _Nuns, Vows, Property._--When joining a society of nuns, one of the +vows taken was that all property should be held in common and whatever +property was received after taking the vows should belong to the society. +A person who left the order was not concluded from making claim for her +property.(609) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXVI. SCHOOLS + + +*343.* _Parent, Education, State, Parochial Schools._--The right of the +parent to use judgment as to the proper necessaries of his child, +including board, lodging, and education, is generally conceded. However, +there must be no abuse of these parental rights, as the child also has +rights that even a parent can not infringe. Therefore, the State may +require a reasonable opportunity for the education of every child; and if +the parent can not give it on account of his poverty, it is in the power +of the State to take his child in charge and furnish him an education. The +right of the State to make laws requiring a parent to send his child to +school between certain ages, as from four to twenty-one years, is well +settled. The question of the parent's being obliged to send his child to +the public schools or being forbidden to send his child to a private or +parochial school, is not settled in some States; but it is being settled +in favor of the parent. The Kentucky constitution contains this provision: +"... nor shall any man be compelled to send his child to any school to +which he may be conscientiously opposed."(610) The right of the State to +supervise or inspect private and parochial schools under the police power +of the State can not be questioned.(611) + +*344.* _Orphan Asylums, School Moneys._--In 1850 the New York Legislature +enacted a law as follows: "The schools of the several incorporated orphan +asylums within the State other than those in the city of New York, shall +participate in the distribution of the school moneys in the same manner +and to the same extent in proportion to the number of children educated +therein, as the common schools in their respective cities and districts." +The court ruled that moneys devoted by the constitution to the State for +the support of common schools could not be distributed under the act, for +the reason that such asylums are not public schools; but moneys from other +sources might be paid for the education of such orphan children in +proportion to their number to those educated in the common schools of +their respective cities and districts.(612) The schools kept by the Roman +Catholic Orphan Asylum Society of the city of Brooklyn, are not common +schools within the meaning of the constitution, and a provision of law +that such schools should share in the distribution of school moneys raised +by the State was void.(613) + +*345.* _Contract, Direct Payment, Lease._--No school of any denomination or +sect is entitled to public moneys for its support, either by contract for +the education of students therein or by direct payment from the +government.(614) A school conducted by the Catholic Church in which +religious instruction is given to Catholic children is a sectarian +institution within the constitutional provision against using public funds +for sectarian purposes; but public school money expended for such a school +conducted by this school district could not be recovered by suit against +the school officers.(615) Also, a school maintained as a charity under +direction of trustees elected by the town where they must be of a certain +religion, is not entitled to public moneys.(616) But the lease of a part +of a parochial school building or the basement of a church for public +school purposed does not violate the law.(617) In the States of Maine, +Iowa, Massachusetts, Illinois, Ohio, Kansas, and Texas, the reading of the +King James Bible and the singing of hymns and saying prayers have been +held not sectarian.(618) But in Wisconsin, the court ruled the other +way.(619) + +*346.* _Teacher, Lord's Prayer, Exercise._--"A public school teacher, who, +for the purpose of quieting the pupils and preparing them for their +regular studies, repeats the Lord's Prayer and the Twenty-second Psalm as +a morning exercise, without comment or remark, in which none of the pupils +are required to participate, is not conducting a form of religious worship +or giving sectarian or religious instruction."(620) Substantially the same +rule applies in Pennsylvania.(621) However, similar religious exercises +conducted by Catholic teachers have generally been held sectarian and not +permissible in public schools.(622) + +*347.* _Ohio, Directors, Bible._--The constitution of the State of Ohio +does not enjoin nor require religious instruction or the reading of +religious books in the public schools. The board of directors of a +district has charge of the instruction and books to be used therein, and +their official discretion will not be interfered with. Therefore, they +were authorized to have the Bible read at the opening of the school.(623) + +*348.* _Public School, Bible, Prayer._--The committee having control of a +public school may make a rule requiring the school to be opened by reading +from the Bible and prayer every morning, and that each child shall bow the +head during such prayers; that any scholar shall be excused from bowing +the head whose parents request it; and when any scholar refuses to obey +such rule and his parents refuse to request that he shall be excused, the +committee may exclude such scholar from the school.(624) + +*349.* _Text-Books, State._--The State has the power to grant authority to +the State Board of Education to select and prescribe text-books to be used +in the public schools of the State.(625) + +*350.* _Bible, Conscience, Constitution._--The parent of a child expelled +from the public school can not maintain an action against the school +committee by whose orders it was done. In the same case it was held that a +rule requiring every scholar to read a particular version of the Bible, +though it may be against the conscience of some to do so, does not violate +the letter or spirit of the constitution.(626) + +*351.* _Schoolhouse, Sunday-School Purposes._--The inhabitants of a school +district have no right to use the schoolhouse for religious meeting on +Sunday against the objection of any taxpayer in the district, +notwithstanding that the officers of the district granted such right. A +taxpayer may obtain an injunction against such use, although the injury to +him be very slight, as he has no other remedy.(627) A district school +board can not authorize the use of the schoolhouse for any other than +school purposes.(628) + +*352.* _Child, Immoral Character._--The school committee in order to +maintain purity and discipline, may exclude therefrom a child whom they +deem to be of licentious or immoral character, although such character is +not manifested in acts of licentiousness or immorality within the +school.(629) + +*353.* _Parents, Studies, Teacher._--The requirement of a teacher that a +scholar in grammar shall write English composition is a reasonable one, +and refusal to comply therewith in the absence of a request from his +parents that he be excused therefrom, will justify the expulsion of a +scholar from school.(630) But when a parent selects certain studies that +the law provides to be taught for his child to study, the teacher has no +right to insist that the child shall take some other study and inflict +punishment to enforce obedience.(631) + +*354.* _Chastisement, Cruel._--The chastisement of a scholar by the +schoolmaster must not be excessive or cruel, but it should be reasonably +proportioned to the offense and within the bounds of moderation.(632) + +*355.* _Schoolmaster, Authority._--Although a schoolmaster has in general +no right to punish a pupil for misconduct after the dismissal of the +school for the day and the return of the pupil to his home, yet he may on +the pupil's return to school punish him for any misbehavior, though +committed out of school, which has a direct and immediate tendency to +injure the school and to subvert the master's authority. The fact that the +master acted in good faith will not excuse him from damages for the +punishment of a scholar where the punishment is clearly excessive and +unnecessary. However, where there is a reasonable doubt the master should +have the benefit of it.(633) + +*356.* _Force, Assistance._--And where a scholar in school hours places +himself in the desk of the instructor and refuses to leave it on the +request of the master, the master may immediately use such force and call +to his assistance such aid from another person as may be necessary to +remove the scholar. The same rule would apply to any one who is not a +scholar and intrudes upon the school.(634) + +*357.* _White, Unmarried._--Before the adoption of the fourteenth amendment +it was necessary in most States that in addition to the child being under +twenty-one years of age, he must be of white blood and unmarried.(635) In +Ohio, negroes, Indians, and children of less than half white blood, were +not entitled to the benefit of the school fund; and even where this would +entirely exclude from school children not sufficient to form a district, +still it was held that such children could not attend the white +school.(636) + +*358.* _Facilities, the Constitution._--So long as abundant facilities are +given for the education of all the children of a district, it is not a +violation of the constitution of the United States to keep negro and white +people separated. The same rule applies to courts.(637) + +*359.* _Residents, Public Schools._--Children in a German Protestant orphan +asylum are not "children, wards, or apprentices of actual residents" in +the district of the asylum, and therefore are not entitled to enter the +public schools of the district.(638) + +*360.* _Board, Majority._--Two of the three members of a school board have +no authority to act by themselves, and their individual agreement to +dismiss a teacher is void. A school board can only act at a duly called +meeting of the board, and then the majority vote duly taken decides.(639) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXVII. PARENT AND CHILD + + +*361.* _Custody, Maternal Relatives, Father._--A parent is entitled to the +care and custody of his child if he is competent to transact his own +business and not otherwise unsuitable. And the mere fact that the maternal +relatives who have had the care of the child from its birth have become +attached to it and desire to continue to care for it and are able to +secure it better advantages than its parent, does not render the parent +unsuitable to have its care and custody within the meaning of the statute. +Also, the want of a sympathetic nature or cold reserve in a parent or the +fact that he is away on business a great deal of the time, is not +sufficient to render him unsuitable. But the right of the father may be +lost or forfeited by his ill-conduct, gross ill-treatment, cruelty, or +abandonment, or when his conduct and life are such as are injurious to the +morals and interest of his child. When the father dies or forfeits his +right for reasons already given, the mother, if alive, succeeds to all +those rights, subject, however, to the same conditions as the father. And +in the case of a child of tender years, the good of the child has to be +regarded as the predominant consideration.(640) + +*362.* _Mother, Illegitimate, Father._--The mother has a right to the care +and custody of her illegitimate child to the same extent that a parent has +to his legitimate child.(641) The putative father on the mother's death +succeeds to the mother's rights as against the maternal relatives and may +secure the custody of the child by _habeas corpus_. This rule is different +from the one that prevailed in the Roman law.(642) However, when the +father has given bond for the care, support, and education of an +illegitimate child, his right to the custody of the child may be +superior.(643) + +*363.* _Legitimatized._--And when under a statute a child is legitimatized +by acknowledgment or subsequent marriage, the father has the better right +to its custody.(644) Usually there are many provisions in the statutes of +the various States which substantially provide for the rights, relative +and otherwise, of the parents and child in such cases. + +*364.* _Punishment, Instrument, Murder._--A parent or a person _in foro +domestico_ or _in loco parentis_ may give reasonable corrective punishment +with a fit instrument to a child. But if a parent or master whips a child +so that it dies, he is guilty of manslaughter. And if he uses lethal +instruments of punishment, he is guilty of murder.(645) Where a mother in +anger threw a poker at one child and hit and killed another child, she was +guilty of manslaughter.(646) The punishment always becomes unlawful when +it is excessive, and drunkenness is no excuse.(647) + +*365.* _Guardian, Religion, Courts._--In England where a child was taken +from the testamentary guardian, who after the death of the testator +changed her religion from a Protestant to a Catholic, it was held thereby +to be incompetent to continue as guardian.(648) And in New York it was +held that where the father and mother were Catholics, the guardian must +endeavor to bring the children up in that faith, as a guardian will not be +permitted to proselyte wards.(649) But where a father who was a Catholic +allowed his child to be brought up by a maternal aunt who was a +Protestant, until the child was fourteen years of age, the father was not +then entitled to the child's custody for the purpose of having it +instructed in his own faith.(650) Courts will not interfere with the +religion of a child, but will allow it to be brought up in the religion of +its parents; however, the best interests of the child will be considered +by the court without conceding everything else to its religion.(651) + +*366.* _Convent, Consent._--A daughter under age who entered a convent to +become a nun without the consent of her mother, may, on a writ of _habeas +corpus_ on the petition of her mother, be required to leave the convent +and return to her home.(652) + +*367.* _Adoption, Rights, Duties._--Persons of suitable age and +circumstances to enter the marital relations, may adopt a child. When a +married couple do not unite in adopting a child, the consent of the +non-adopting spouse must be obtained. Also, if the child's parents are +living, their consent is necessary unless they have lost their paternal +rights by abandonment or divorce. The decree of adoption may be set aside +for good cause. The adopted parent has all the rights over and duties +toward the person of the adopted child that a natural parent has, +including necessaries and religious training. Usually the child inherits +from the adopted parents, but the adopted parents do not inherit from the +child. The statutes on adoption are not the same in the several States, +but they cover the subject and must be strictly followed.(653) + +*368.* _Infancy, Manumission, Marriage._--At common law a person is an +infant until he is twenty-one years of age. Statutes have modified that +rule so that girls in some States, and both girls and boys in others, may +contract marriage at an earlier age without the parental consent. +Generally, an infant can not contract marriage without the consent of the +living parent or guardian unless the child has been manumitted. Where the +boy was under the age of consent, but he falsely told the priest that he +was of full age, his father had the marriage annulled.(654) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXVIII. HUSBAND AND WIFE + + +*369.* _Custody, Father._--A husband is entitled to the custody of his wife +against her father, and where a son-in-law killed his father-in-law in +resisting the latter from taking his daughter out of his (the +son-in-law's) house, the court held that it could not be more than +manslaughter; and if it were necessary to kill to protect and maintain his +wife, the defendant was not guilty.(655) But for good cause and without +malice a parent may advise his child to leave spouse.(656) + +*370.* _Corrective Authority, Services, Domicile._--In America a husband +gains no right to corrective authority over his wife. He can neither whip +her nor use abusive language to her. The same rule applies to the wife, as +they stand equal before the law.(657) However, a husband is entitled to +all the services of his wife and a promise to pay her extra for housework +can not be enforced.(658) Also, the husband has the right to determine +their place of domicile, and if the wife unreasonably refuses to accompany +her husband, it is desertion, for which he may obtain a divorce.(659) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXIX. INDIANS + + +*371.* _Indians, Citizens, Wards._--There are a great number of statutory +provisions concerning Indians, both in the United States statutes and in +the statutes of the several States, most of which are not of great +importance at the present time, as the Indians are confined to a few +States. When they become citizens of the State in which they reside, their +status is the same as other citizens; but so long as they remain in their +tribal relations they are taken care of as wards of the Union. + +*372.* _Schools, Cemeteries, Churches._--In Oklahoma there are schools +provided for them. When a tribe cedes 160 acres to the United States, it +will give it a school for ten years, and as much longer as it deems +necessary. Also, the Indians may have their own cemeteries, schools, and +churches, where the Indians belong to the tribes, and they are allowed +lands therefor.(660) In other States, under the general law, the money of +Indian minors may be held in the treasury by the Secretary of the Interior +and paid to parents and guardians in such sums and at such times as the +Secretary in his discretion may determine.(661) There is no doubt that out +of those moneys, parents might pay for their children at private +schools.(662) + +*373.* _Inspectors, Duties._--Under the United States laws, inspectors are +appointed to visit Indian agencies and investigate all matters concerning +them and to examine all contracts and accounts with the Indians and make +report thereon to the Secretary of the Interior. The contracts for support +of religion, schools, and charitable institutions, come under their +duties.(663) + +*374.* _President, Trades._--The President may cause Indians to be +instructed in trades and agriculture and have them taught the elementary +branches.(664) + +*375.* _Commissioner, School, Rations, Bible, Sectarian._--Another officer +of great importance is the Commissioner of Indian Affairs, who has most to +do with the education and schools of the Indians.(665) He may require +parents and guardians to send children to school and withhold rations from +them for failure so to do. Also, there is a fund under the control of the +United States as trustee, with which he may make contracts for the +education of Indian children at private schools.(666) However, the +jurisdiction of the commissioner over Indian children does not extend to +those off the reservation.(667) Among other provisions of the United +States statutes is the following: "The Christian Bible may be taught in +the native language of the Indians if in the judgment of the persons in +charge of the school it may be deemed conducive to the moral welfare and +instruction of the pupils in such schools."(668) The Bible continues its +position among the Indians, but appropriations for the Church are cut off +by the following provision: "It is hereby declared to be the settled +policy of the government to hereafter make no appropriations whatever for +education in any sectarian school."(669) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXX. JUVENILE COURTS + + +*376.* _Reformatories, Object, Liberty._--During the past few years +juvenile courts have been created for the purpose of committing children +to reformatories. The proceedings are not criminal actions, but of an +equitable nature.(670) However, as the object is to deprive the child of +its liberty, the statute must be strictly construed and followed.(671) An +infant can not waive a right.(672) If a child has been wrongfully +committed or is wrongfully detained, the proper remedy for his discharge +is a writ of _habeas corpus_.(673) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXXI. LIBEL AND SLANDER + + +*377.* _Confidential, Tribunal, Malice._--The rule is that all confidential +statements made to an officer or a tribunal of the church concerning a +member in the course of church discipline and for the good of the church, +if not made with malice, are privileged, and no action for libel or +slander can be maintained therefor.(674) + +*378.* _Member, Officer, Councils._--But slanderous or libelous statements +made concerning a person not a member of the church or made concerning a +member of the church to another member who is not either an officer or in +the councils of the church, are actionable and the person making or +publishing such statements is liable for damages. Also, a person who +repeats a libel or slander may be liable as though he were the +originator.(675) + +*379.* _Official Communication, Privileged._--An official communication +between authorities of the church or an authority and a member of the +church concerning a church matter or church members and not made in +malice, is privileged.(676) + +*380.* _Priest, Pastoral Duties._--Where a priest published from the altar +that "Peter Servatius is excommunicated, because he laid hands on the +priest to put him out of the church, and he has no more benefit of the +prayers of the church. I will not pray for him, and consider him a lost +sheep and withdraw all my pastoral blessings from him. If he die, the +burial rights of the church will be denied him," such remarks were held +defamatory, unless they were spoken in the proper discharge of the +priest's clerical and pastoral duties and without malice; and the case +should have been submitted on the evidence to a jury.(677) + +*381.* _Church Record, Excommunication._--An entry of a church record that +"A report raised and circulated by A. B. against Brother C., stating that +he made him pay a note twice, and proved by A. B. as false," is +libelous.(678) But an entry of excommunication of a member made in the +record and shown to other members, is not libelous, the latter being +properly a part of the record and the former extraneous.(679) + +*382.* _Will, Libel, Action._--The will of a priest contained a statement +that a relative had received $300 from him for clothing, maintenance, +education, etc., and promised to repay it, but paid no part of it. Then +testator bequeathed said $300 to two legatees to collect for their own +use. The relative filed a petition asking the estate of the priest to be +held liable for a libel in the sum of $50,000 and the court held that as +the right of action did not accrue until after the death of the testator, +there was a right of action against the estate. As the case never got +beyond the probate court, its authority is doubtful.(680) + +*383.* _Language, Insane, Good Faith._--Unless the language is used by the +bishop in the line of his duty, a statement that a priest is irresponsible +and insane, that he was removed from his position of priest for good +reason, and that he has been guilty of ecclesiastical disobedience, is +slanderous _per se_. To make a communication between a bishop and priest +privileged it must have been spoken in good faith and in belief that the +speaking of it came within the discharge of the bishop's duty.(681) + +*384.* _Rector, Bigamy, Tobacco, Liquor._--In a case where the rector of an +Episcopal church called upon a man charged with bigamy and after a private +conversation the minister wrote a letter to the district attorney on +behalf of the prisoner, it was held not privileged because it was not made +in confidence of the relation and was not kept as a secret.(682) A letter +from a church member of one congregation to the elders of another +congregation advising them of the unfitness of a clergyman appointed to +the latter parish, and stating that he used tobacco and liquor, that he +was an untruthful man, and that his family was no credit to the community, +was quasi-privileged; and in the absence of proof that the charges were +false and malicious was not actionable.(683) + +*385.* _Newspapers, Criticisms, Priest._--A newspaper has a right to +publish criticisms of the conduct of a priest in certain services held in +his church if no false statement of facts is given, since such conduct is +a proper subject of discussion; and if such article contains a statement +that if certain published accounts of the conduct of the priest are true +he acted in an improper manner, etc., it is not libelous because such +facts are not true, as it is not an affirmation of the truth thereof. +Where the alleged libel was published in a foreign language and the +correctness of the translation was disputed, it was an error for the judge +to instruct the jury that if the translation introduced in evidence was +correct, the defendant was liable, since plaintiff's right to recover +should not be made to depend on the absolute accuracy of the +translation.(684) + +*386.* _Clergyman, Discipline, Tribunals, Testimony, Argument._--What a +clergyman says in the administration of the discipline of the church or +what is said in tribunals to enforce discipline of the church, including +testimony and legitimate argument within the scope of the case, if said in +good faith and without malice, is not actionable in the civil courts.(685) + +*387.* _Physical Discipline, Imprisonment, Courts._--A clergyman who claims +to have been slandered by a parishioner can not administer physical +discipline nor put the offender under restraint without leaving himself +liable for damages for assault and battery or false imprisonment. If the +clergyman desires to treat the charge as a church matter, he must go into +the church tribunal; otherwise, his proper course is to bring an action +for slander in the State court.(686) + +*388.* _Sermon, False Statement, Crime._--A clergyman may, by words used in +a sermon, slander a member of his congregation. However, if he makes no +false statement and does not falsely or maliciously charge a crime, what +he says in the way of discipline is privileged.(687) The meaning of the +words "she is a dirty, vile woman," can not be extended by innuendo.(688) + +*389.* _Charges, Robbed, Hypocrite._--Charges that a person has robbed a +church or has stolen from a church, are actionable.(689) Also, charging a +person with being a hypocrite and using the cloak of religion for unworthy +purposes, is slanderous.(690) + +*390.* _Investigation, Probable Cause._--When a member of a church consents +to an investigation on complaint before a person who is not a member, if +the complaint was made on probable cause and not under the pretence of +exposing the defendant to scorn or obloquy, he could not subsequently +bring an action for libel.(691) + +*391.* _Sacraments._--To publish of a person that he has been deprived of +the sacraments of the church to which he belongs, is libelous.(692) + +*392.* _Obituary, Tolling Bell._--To falsely and maliciously publish an +obituary notice of a person living, is good ground for an action for +libel.(693) However, a complaint that a church tolled its bell to announce +the death of a member, and did report him dead when he was actually +living, and that it was all done for the purpose of annoying, harassing, +and vexing the person and his family, was held not sufficient to support +an action for libel. The latter case is doubtful law.(694) + +*393.* _Newspaper, Profane Swearer._--A newspaper in a notice of the death +of a church member has the right to state that he was a profane swearer, +if such was the case.(695) + +*394.* _Business or Property, Special Damages._--A company incorporated for +the purpose of transacting business which would include hospitals, +schools, and industrial institutions, may maintain an action for libel the +same as an individual for any words affecting its business or property, if +special damages are alleged and proved.(696) + +*395.* _Justification, Repeating._--It is no justification that libelous +matter had been previously published by a third person, that the name of +such person was disclosed at the time of repeating the libel, and that the +person who was repeating it believed all the statements in the libel to be +true.(697) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXXII. CRIMES + + +*396.* _Sins, Crimes, Discipline._--Crimes are offenses against the civil +law. The fact that the church organization may try and punish a member for +sinning, or acquit him, has nothing whatever to do with the administration +of the criminal law of the State. Therefore, a member may be arrested and +tried for any offense before or after the ecclesiastical tribunal has +taken action in the matter. But there are certain crimes of a religious +nature of which the civil law assumes jurisdiction and punishes, such as +blasphemy,(698) disturbing religious meetings,(699) etc. Most of those +laws are statutory and depend wholly upon the statute of the State where +the crime is committed. + +*397.* _Profane Language, Smoking, Disturbance._--Rude behavior or profane +language if audible,(700) smoking in the church or during services,(701) +cracking and eating nuts in church,(702) and fighting near the church so +as to disturb the services, are violations of the law.(703) A father's +taking his child out of the church with violence is a disturbance of the +meeting.(704) The disturbance of any member of the congregation assembled +for religious worship is a violation of law.(705) A sentence of $100 fine +or one year's imprisonment in the penitentiary, is not excessive or cruel +or unusual punishment on conviction for disturbing a meeting.(706) + +*398.* _Sunday-School, Church._--An ordinary Sunday-school where the Bible +and religious precepts are taught, is a church within the law.(707) + +*399.* _Private School._--A person may be punished under the statute for +wilfully disturbing a private school kept in a district schoolhouse for +instruction in the art of writing.(708) + +*400.* _Disturbing a Religious Meeting._--Under a statute against +disturbing a religious meeting, it has been held that it should define +what disturbance is punishable.(709) Also, mere want of attention or +observance of ceremonies, as standing or kneeling at times, is not a +violation of the law.(710) Neither is singing out of time, unless done +purposely,(711) nor performing a proper duty, such as objecting to a +silenced clergyman's conducting the services.(712) + +*401.* _Common Law, Offense, Statutory Law._--If there is no statutory +provision, in those States where the common law prevailed before the +admission of the State to the Union the offense is punishable under the +common law.(713) And even in States where there is a statutory law on the +subject, a person may be convicted at common law.(714) + +*402.* _Services, Violation, Time._--The nature of the services and the +discipline of the denomination may determine whether there is a violation +of the law. Usually the disturbance may occur at any place the +congregation is assembled, and at any time when any part of the +congregation is assembled for religious services or business.(715) + +*403.* _Force, Priest, Preserve Order._--A congregation may use sufficient +force to remove a disturber.(716) A Catholic priest who is the conductor +of religious services and master of ceremonies within his church has the +right to preserve order and to remove by force, if necessary, any person +who disturbs his services.(717) + +*404.* _Interrupt, Liquors, Traffic._--There are statutes in most of the +States making it a penal offense to interrupt or molest any assembly or +meeting of the people for religious worship, or to sell intoxicating +liquors or other articles of traffic within a certain distance of any +camp-meeting or other religious assembly, except at a place of business +regularly established prior to such meeting or assembly and not with +intent of evading the provisions of the law.(718) + +*405.* _Theory, Blasphemy, Crime._--On the theory that the United States is +a Christian nation, blasphemy is held to be a crime.(719) Infidels +naturally claim that it interferes with their rights. However, there is no +more interference with the private rights of the infidel than there is +with the private right of the Mormon who is forbidden to violate the laws +of the country by having a plurality of wives; and it has been held that +any words importing imprecation for divine vengeance may constitute +profane cursing or blasphemy.(720) + +*406.* _Religion, God, Ridicule, Virgin._--Words vilifying the Christian +religion,(721) denying God or the final judgment,(722) and profane +ridicule of the Holy Scriptures or of Christ,(723) are usually punishable. +Also, the use of vile words applied to the Virgin Mary is blasphemy.(724) + +*407.* _Profanity, Proof, Excuse._--The profanity must be in the hearing of +some person.(725) Every time a person profanely swears by taking the name +of God in vain is a separate offense.(726) The prisoner's confession is +sufficient proof; otherwise the prosecution must show that the offense was +committed and some one heard the words. + +Drunkenness is no excuse.(727) Punishment by fine or imprisonment is not +in violation of the constitution of the State or of the United +States.(728) + +*408.* _Sunday, Business, Fishing._--The offenses against the Sunday law +are so numerous that it would be almost impossible to review them within +the limits of this work. Of course, the carrying on of a man's ordinary +business is a violation of the Sabbath laws. But in some States selling +cigars,(729) a butcher selling meat,(730) and even selling soda +water,(731) and ice cream,(732) as well as fishing, traveling, driving, +using a slot machine,(733) and almost every other imaginable act excepting +going to church, has at some time and in some State been declared a +violation of the law, and a penalty imposed therefor. + +In California,(734) Tennessee,(735) and Washington,(736) men may be shaved +on Sunday. In some other States it has been held that running a barber +shop on Sunday is a violation of the law.(737) + +*409.* _Charity, Necessity, Benefit, Pleasure._--However, doing works of +charity and works of necessity usually are exempt. What is a work of +necessity is a question of law. Charity includes whatever proceeds from +the sense of moral duty or a feeling of kindness and humanity, and is +intended wholly for the purpose of the relief or comfort of another, and +not for one's benefit or pleasure.(738) + +*410.* _Contracts, Marriage, Notice._--The common law made no distinction +between Sunday and any other day as to making contracts, but it prohibited +holding court. In this country the statutory law invariably prohibits any +but works of necessity or charity to be done on Sunday. But marriage +settlements,(739) publication of statutory notices on Sunday,(740) and +promises to marry, have been held legal.(741) + +*411.* _Funeral, Physician, Subscriptions._--To attend a funeral, to employ +an undertaker, or a physician, on Sunday, has been tested in the courts, +and finally decided to be works of necessity or charity and not a +violation of the Sunday law. Also, subscriptions made for church purposes +and in works of charity on Sunday have been held legal and binding.(742) + +*412.* _Jews, Seventh-Day Observers._--In several of the States it has been +held that Jews and Seventh-Day observers of the Sabbath must obey the +Sunday law.(743) However, in many States there is a statute expressly +exempting people who keep the seventh day of the week; but still they +sometimes have a provision, unless "he shall wilfully disturb thereby some +other person or some religious assembly on said day." + +*413.* _Societies, Secular Work._--Business meetings of benevolent and +church societies for benevolent or church work may be held on Sunday. Even +the constitution of such societies may be amended on Sunday. However, +secular work that does not come strictly under the functions of such +societies would be unlawful.(744) + +*414.* _Sunday, Begins, Ends._--Usually people believe they know what the +word Sunday means, when it begins, and when it ends. Christianity usually +recognizes the time from midnight to midnight as Sunday, and that is the +usual time recognized by law.(745) But the solar day only,(746) or from +midnight to sunset,(747) give us a variety which may not be complete. +Also, we have the further anomaly of a note made at 2 o'clock on Saturday +night, being held valid.(748) + +*415.* _Religious Liberty, Law._--The constitutional guarantee of religious +liberty is not violated by enforcing the Sunday law.(749) + +*416.* _Necessaries, Doctor._--As a parent or husband is obliged to furnish +necessaries for his children and wife, when medical treatment becomes +necessary, he is liable for manslaughter for failure to do his duty, even +in case of religious disbelief in the efficacy of medicine. Courts are not +inclined to make any distinction as to religious belief, and the +prevailing rule in this country is that the parent is liable if he +negligently allows his child to die when it might have been saved by the +services of a doctor.(750) + +*417.* _Christian Healer, Consent._--A Christian healer can not be held +liable except under a State law. One who consents to treatment has no +action for damages unless there is a failure to exercise the care and +skill of a Christian Scientist. This rule might not apply to one +incompetent to consent to a contract.(751) + +*418.* _Politics._--A minister who had been expelled by his congregation +for voting the Democratic ticket, had some of the members of the church +arrested under the election laws for intimidating a voter. The court held +that as he "suffered no pecuniary loss, personal injury, or physical +restraint," no crime was committed.(752) + +*419.* _Mail, Obscene Language._--Under the United States postal laws +against sending "obscene, lewd or lascivious" books or papers through the +mail, a person can not be convicted without proof that the matter is +obscene, lewd, and lascivious, as the word "or" should be construed to +mean "and." Also, the court held that a newspaper article on the doctrine +of the Immaculate Conception written in coarse and obscene language that +offended the religious sentiments of the people, but had no tendency to +induce sexual immorality, did not render the newspaper unmailable nor the +publisher guilty under the United States statutes. The court says: "Those +parts of the article most relied upon to sustain the charge, though +ostensibly a discussion of a religious subject, are couched in language +not quite suitable for insertion in a judicial opinion, however well +adjusted to such applause as might be expected from taste of a certain +degree of degradation."(753) + +*420.* _"__Fair,__"__ Chances, Gambling._--A church "fair" at which chances +are sold, drawings had, or any game of chance permitted, is illegal and +may be punished as gambling.(754) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXXIII. CEMETERIES + + +*421.* _Statutes, Land._--There are sufficient statutory provisions on +cemeteries to make a large book, and the frequent changes made in such +laws render a full statement of the law impossible. The statutes against +locating cemeteries near cities, dwellings, etc., should be carefully +examined before buying land therefor.(755) + +*422.* _United States, Jurisdiction._--The jurisdiction over the United +States cemeteries is in the State where the cemeteries are located unless +such jurisdiction has been ceded to the United States.(756) + +*423.*. _Tombstones, Soldiers_.--The United States will erect tombstones at +the graves of soldiers who served in the Civil War, in all cemeteries +where their graves are unmarked. Wherever the United States has +jurisdiction over cemeteries, it has made it a criminal offense punishable +by fine or imprisonment to deface a tombstone.(757) + +*424.* _Indigent Soldiers, Tombstones._--Most of the States have statutes +providing for the burial of indigent soldiers and for putting tombstones +at their graves. The attention of relatives of deceased soldiers should be +called to it. + +*425.* _State Authority._--The State Legislature has authority to control +cemeteries or delegate that authority to some one else, and afterward to +transfer it to a different person.(758) + +*426.* _Maryland, Two Acres._--Although the declaration of rights of the +State of Maryland restricted the sale of lands for a cemetery for a church +to two acres, the Legislature has power to grant leave to a cemetery +association to take title to more land. And where the trustees bought +twelve acres of land for a burial ground and a subsequent act of the +Legislature authorized the enlargement of the cemetery not to exceed +twenty-five acres, the title to the excess of the valid purchase was +ratified and the title vested in the trustees.(759) + +*427.* _Consent, Application._--Where a statute provides that no cemetery +shall be laid out without first obtaining the consent of the municipal +authorities thereto, a written communication signed by the officers of an +incorporated society is sufficient application; and a motion granting +consent adopted by the city council is sufficient action on its part to +comply with the statute.(760) + +*428.* _Charter, Ground, Members._--An application for a charter to +incorporate a cemetery need not specifically locate the ground.(761) The +charter or the articles of incorporation, or by-laws made under them, +generally determines who shall be members of the corporation. And where +every owner of a lot signing the constitution and by-laws becomes a +member, the trustees can not vote on the unsold lots.(762) + +*429.* _Police Power, Trespass, Burial._--Under our laws the State, by +reason of its police power, has control over the cemeteries within it. +However, that power has generally been very favorably exercised. Laws both +civil and criminal have been enacted to protect cemeteries from invasion +and trespass and to protect tombstones from injury.(763) When authorized +by the Legislature a city may make a by-law prohibiting burial within its +limits, notwithstanding that the cemetery has been constantly used for +over one hundred years.(764) Also, the city has authority to protect and +regulate the use of a cemetery.(765) + +*430.* _Dwelling, Limits._--Most of the States provide that no cemetery +shall be laid out within a certain limit of a dwelling. But after the +cemetery is established a man can not have it moved when he puts up a +dwelling within the limits or where he consented to the cemetery at the +time it was established.(766) + +*431.* _Well, Pollution._--And where a man had built a dwelling near a +cemetery, it was not good ground for him to prevent the enlargement of the +cemetery by showing that it might destroy his well. The court questions +whether there is any legal ground for complaint for the pollution of +subterranean waters when caused by the proper use without negligence of +the adjacent premises.(767) Additional lands may be obtained under the law +of eminent domain by condemnation.(768) + +*432.* _Exempt, Execution, Mortgage._--The statutes in most of the States +exempt the tombstones and lots in a cemetery from sale on execution.(769) +Also, a cemetery lot can not be sold under mortgage after bodies have been +buried therein, as any one may be arrested for desecration of graves.(770) + +*433.* _Public, Regulation._--The right to bury in a public cemetery is a +privilege or license that is subject to municipal regulation, and +revocable whenever the public necessity requires it.(771) + +*434.* _Nuisance, Public Health, Disease._--A cemetery is not a nuisance +_per se_, but if it is proved that the burial of dead bodies in a certain +cemetery does injure the public health and is a fruitful source of +transmission of disease, the State may prohibit such burial at certain +places within cities or adjacent to dwellings. But unless authorized by +the Legislature a council has no right by ordinance to provide that no one +shall be buried within half a mile of any habitation or public +thoroughfare.(772) And where the Legislature authorized a city to remove +the bodies interred and allow streets through the land, it had authority +to do so.(773) + +*435.* _Devise, Easement, Rules._--The general rule of law is that a man +can not devise away a cemetery lot in which members of his family are +buried. He owns only a license or at the most an easement which is subject +to the rules of the cemetery association and the police power of the +State. However, there are some exceptions.(774) + +*436.* _Conditions._--A condition in a deed that the lot can not be sold, +assigned, or transferred without consent of the cemetery corporation, is +as good and binding as in any other conveyance of real estate.(775) + +*437.* _Inherits, Right._--Where a son inherits from his father the right +to burial in a cemetery lot, he has the right to remove and inter therein +the bodies of his grandmother and sister who had been buried +elsewhere.(776) + +*438.* _Certificate._--A certificate was issued for the burial of Dennis +Coppers in the following form: + + + "Office of Calvary Cemetery, + New York, December 1, 1873. + + RECEIVED from Mr. Dennis Coppers, seventy-five dollars, being the + amount of purchase money of a plot of ground 8 feet by 8 feet, in + Calvary Cemetery. + + D. BRENNAN, + Superintendent of Calvary Cemetery. + + 4 Graves, 5, 6, 7, 8, Plot D, Section 7, Range 35." + + +*439.* _Freemason, Title, Right._--Prior to 1879, the mother, wife, and +other relatives of Coppers, who were Roman Catholics, were buried in the +lot covered by the deed given in the last paragraph. Coppers, who was a +Freemason, died in August, 1879, and his funeral services were held under +the auspices of the Masons from an Episcopal church, as directed in his +will. The rules and doctrines of the Church forbid the burial in +consecrated ground of the body of one who was not a Roman Catholic or who +was a member of the Masonic fraternity. The Church authorities refused to +allow Coppers to be buried in the cemetery, and application was made by +his relatives for a writ of mandamus to compel his interment therein, they +having deposited the necessary money to pay all the expenses. The court +held that the certificate delivered to Coppers was not a conveyance nor a +grant and did not vest title to the land in him, and that the cemetery +could not be compelled to execute and deliver to him an absolute +conveyance of the lot. His only right under the certificate was the use of +the lot for burial purposes subject to and in conformity with the +established rules and by-laws of the corporation in so far as they were +not in violation of any law. It is the tacit understanding, when a person +applies for a burial lot in a cemetery of the Catholic Church, that he is +either a Catholic and as such is eligible to be buried therein, or that he +applies in behalf of those who are in communion with the Church.(777) + +*440.* _Lots, Fee._--If the cemetery association sells 400 lots to one man +and makes a conveyance in fee thereof, it is bound thereby.(778) + +*441.* _Deed, Privilege, Heirs and Assigns._--No formal deed is necessary +to confer exclusive right to the use of a cemetery lot for burial +purposes.(779) And certificates of lots issued by a corporation convey no +title to the land, as they are not in the form necessary to constitute a +conveyance of land. Their only effect is to grant the privilege of +interment so long as the ground continues to be used for the purposes of +burial.(780) A deed of a cemetery lot "to him, his heirs, and assigns +forever," gives only an easement in the freehold, and does not give title +to the soil, and is subject to changes made necessary by altered +circumstances.(781) + +*442.* _Access, Purposes._--Title to a cemetery lot gives the right of +access to it for the usual purposes, including putting up monuments.(782) + +*443.* _Monuments, Inscriptions, Drunkenness, Non-Baptized, +Strangers._--The plaintiff obtained from the defendant a deed, which, among +other things, contained the following conditions: "that such lot shall not +be transferred without the consent of the trustees; shall be subject to +the regulations made, or to be made, in the care and management of such +cemetery by the trustees, who shall also have the right to prevent the +erection of offensive and improper monuments or inscriptions thereon, and +shall retain the right to enter any lot for the removal of anything +objectionable; that no remains shall be deposited therein for hire; and +that persons dying in drunkenness, duel, or by self-destruction, +non-baptized, non-Catholic, or otherwise opposed to the Catholic Church, +shall not be therein interred." The plaintiff had buried his father and +one of his children in the lot, and brought his wife's remains there for +burial. Upon the arrival of the funeral, two small coffins of strangers, +one of which bore the name "John McDonald," which the grave-digger had +taken up, were at the side of the grave. There was nothing to show how +those bodies came to be buried there. The plaintiff brought suit for +damages against the cemetery association. The court held that the cemetery +association was liable and that the defense that it was a public +charitable organization could not be sustained.(783) + +*444.* _Use, Forfeited._--When a deed is made of land for the use of a +cemetery only, it will be forfeited by using it for a school.(784) + +*445.* _By-Laws, Member, Burial._--Where a by-law of a church association +provides that any member who pays one dollar to have his name entered in +the record shall be entitled to a burial lot, a member who had paid one +dollar to the committee of the church before the adoption of such by-law +but had ceased to be a member of the congregation, has no right to a +burial lot.(785) + +*446.* _Adverse Possession._--If the original title to a cemetery is +defective, the title may become good by adverse possession.(786) + +*447.* _Improvements._--The owner of a lot, unless some rule of the +cemetery association or law of the State is to the contrary, may improve +it as he sees fit so long as he does not injure the property rights of +another.(787) + +*448.* _Trespass, Injunction._--An action for damages _quara clausum +fregit_, can be maintained by a relative against any one who trespasses +upon a grave of a person lawfully interred.(788) Also, a relative may +enjoin by suit in equity, on behalf of himself and others equally +interested, interference with graves in his cemetery lot.(789) + +*449.* _Roads, Alleys._--Most of the laws relating to highways apply to +cemetery roads and alleys, excepting that when a road or alley in a +cemetery is vacated the land reverts to the cemetery instead of becoming +parts of the adjoining lots.(790) In most of the States a road can not be +laid out through or take a part of a cemetery.(791) But a public highway +may be established through a cemetery by user, the same as over other +lands.(792) + +*450.* _Abandoned, Bodies._--When a cemetery has been abandoned, those who +have relatives buried there may incorporate it for preservation.(793) +Also, a corporation may change its cemetery and remove the bodies interred +therein.(794) + +*451.* _Two-Family Lot, Control._--Where a lot is owned jointly by two +families, one burying in the north half and the other in the south half, +the family burying in the north half can not prevent the burial of a +member of the other family in the south half, if entitled to be buried in +that cemetery.(795) + +*452.* _Burying Dogs, Removal._--A person who has a lot in a cemetery has +no right to bury any but human bodies therein, and one who has buried a +pet dog in her lot may be compelled to remove it.(796) + +*453.* _Stranger, Protest, Kin._--One member of a family can not authorize +the burial of a stranger in a family lot where his parents are buried and +against the protest of any other relative of equal or nearer degree of +kin.(797) When an owner of a lot has consented to the burial of a body +therein, he can not afterward remove the body or deface the tombstone, and +to do so would be a criminal offense.(798) When a lot is sold to one +person, the cemetery association has the right to limit interments to +members of the family owning the lot. However, where there is nothing +concerning it in the laws or rules of the association, it might be +different.(799) + +*454.* _Association, Bishop, Stipulation, Certificate, License, +Revocable._--The Germans of Cincinnati formed an association and purchased +ten acres of land for a cemetery "for German immigrants, their families, +and relatives, of Cincinnati and its vicinity, who might be members of the +Catholic Church and in accordance with the doctrine, discipline, usage, +and ceremonies of the same." They incorporated with fifteen trustees to be +elected annually. Before he would bless the cemetery, the bishop required +and the committee stipulated with him in writing the following: That the +rules of the Catholic Church should always be faithfully observed in this +chiefly: First, that no one should be buried in the ground who had not +been baptized or who died out of communion of the Catholic Church, to +which the bishop or in his absence the clergy of the German Catholic +Church or churches, should be the judge; second, that no poor person +should be denied a place therein because his parents were unwilling to +pay; third, that any money accrued from the ground should be expended for +pious uses and specifically for the relief of the German Catholic poor; +fourth, that the remains of persons interred in Catharine Street +burial-ground might be removed to the new ground. The bishop subsequently +closed the cemetery as a place for burial of Catholics because the +congregation had violated the stipulation: "First, by admitting those to +burial who died out of the communion of the Catholic Church; second, by +refusing to poor persons the right of burial; third, by expending the +funds of the association in other than pious uses and relief of the poor." +The court held that the corporation had authority to determine that the +cemetery should continue to be used as such, but the conditions might be +enforced by any one interested.(800) Also the question was brought before +the court in a case where a man had fallen away from the Church, and the +court held that the certificate was a mere license giving no property +rights, and revocable; and that the question as to whether the party to be +buried therein was in communion with the Church, was one over which the +Church itself had exclusive jurisdiction.(801) + +*455.* _Rules, Diocese._--One who buys the privilege of burying his dead in +a cemetery acquires no general right of property, but only a right to use +the grounds as a place of interment, and the rules governing a cemetery in +force at the time the privilege is acquired measure the extent of the use. +Where a rule of the church having charge of the cemetery forbids the +burial of non-Catholics therein, the bishop of the diocese and the local +priest, who according to the usage of the church were vested with control, +had authority and power to restrain a holder of a lot from interring the +body of his son who was not in communion with the church at the time of +his death, and who committed suicide.(802) + +*456.* _Negroes, Indians._--The fact that a man is a negro, Indian, or +other racial human being, is not good ground to prevent his burial in a +cemetery.(803) + +*457.* _Will, Body, Custody._--Where no disposition of a body has been made +by will, the surviving husband, or wife, or next of kin, has the right to +the body for the purpose of burial. But the right of the surviving wife or +husband, if they were living together at the time of the death of +deceased, is paramount to that of the next of kin.(804) A right to the +custody of the body of a deceased relative and to decide upon the final +place of burial where the deceased is unmarried, is in his next of kin, +and this right will be protected by the courts.(805) + +*458.* _Non-Residence, Burial._--Non-residence does not divest a person of +the right to burial with his relatives.(806) + +*459.* _State, Vacate, Equity, Rule._--The State may require the removal of +the bodies and vacate a cemetery without compensation to lot owners in +some extraordinary cases of eminent domain or as a health measure.(807) +Courts of equity exercise some discretion in cases that do not fall within +this rule.(808) But the superintendent of a cemetery has no right to +remove a child without the consent of the father who owns the lot.(809) + +*460.* _Consent, Bishop, Removal._--With the consent of deceased's husband +before the funeral, the father of deceased paid for the lot in which his +daughter wished to be buried with her parents. Her mother being +dissatisfied with the location, the lot was subsequently exchanged for +another in the same cemetery; but after preliminary arrangements had been +made, the son-in-law applied to a court of equity for a writ restraining +the father and the bishop from removing the body. The bishop answered that +he was willing to conform to any order of the court. The court held that +by acceding to his wife's request and allowing her father to bury her in +the first instance, and by standing mute while the arrangements for the +removal of the body were being made, the husband had no right thereafter +to prevent the removal of his wife's body.(810) + +*461.* _Court, Remove, Consent._--In a proper case a court may grant a +decree to remove the body of a relative from one cemetery to another.(811) +Otherwise no one has the right to exhume or remove a body without the +consent of those having charge of the cemetery and of those having the +right of burial, as consort or the next of kin. In some States the offense +is a felony.(812) In Nebraska, at least, those who have the legal right to +bury a relative may remove his body from one Catholic cemetery to another +without the consent of the bishop.(813) + +*462.* _Crime, Fraud, Exhume, Autopsy._--In an action on an insurance +policy where there is evidence of fraud, as death by poison, a court may +order a body exhumed for examination, although the person having the right +to control the burial of the body is not a party to the suit.(814) Public +officials have the right to disinter a body to ascertain whether a crime +has been committed.(815) But without a coroner's inquest or consent of the +surviving consort or next of kin, a doctor has no right to perform an +autopsy.(816) + +*463.* _Tort, Corpse._--The general rule is that an action of tort may be +maintained by the widow or next of kin for the mutilation of a corpse or +even for negligently exposing it to the elements.(817) In a few cases the +right has been denied.(818) + +*464.* _Custodian, Burial, Mutilation._--In the absence of a widow, a son +is the lawful custodian of the body of his deceased father for +preservation, representation, and burial, and may maintain an action for +unlawful mutilation thereof. The sense of outrage and mental suffering +resulting directly from the wilful mutilation of the body of a parent, is +a proper independent element of compensatory damages.(819) + +*465.* _Property in a Corpse, Mummy, Executors._--The question of property +in a corpse has been generally denied. However, in case of a mummy which +has become an object of curiosity, the case may be different. Where a +testator ordered his body burned and the executor presented a bill for +L321 for doing so, the court disallowed it on the ground that when a man +is dead his next of kin or executors have the right to dispose of his +body; but that as it is not property, a man has no right to bequeath it +for a particular purpose.(820) Also, where a man was in jail and died +during his imprisonment and the jailer refused to give up the body until +the debt was paid, the court held that there was no property in the +corpse, and therefore there could be no lien upon it and he must surrender +it.(821) + +*466.* _Rights, Duties, Body, Will._--While there is no property in a dead +body so that it may be sold, there are rights and duties out of which may +arise tort and criminal actions. The question of the right of a man to +dispose of his body by will is not well settled in this country.(822) +There are many cases that hold that a person has the right to make a +binding testamentary disposition of his own body after death.(823) But on +the contrary it has been held that one can not by his will confer any +right as to the disposition of his body.(824) + +*467.* _Monument, Fence._--Giving the right to bury in one's cemetery lot +carries with it the right to erect a monument; but it does not carry with +it the right to fence the cemetery lot or interfere with other graves +therein. Therefore, the monument must be of such size and so located and +erected as not to interfere with the rights of others.(825) + +*468.* _Tombstone, Mother-in-Law._--A husband has the right to remove a +tombstone that his mother-in-law put over his wife's grave, and put up one +of his own choice instead.(826) The general rule is that vaults and +tombstones are personal property and may be removed "in good faith and +with care and decency" by the next of kin.(827) + +*469.* _Trees, Authority._--It is a criminal offense to cut trees in a +cemetery without right or authority.(828) + +*470.* _Charitable, Institution, Negligence._--A Catholic cemetery without +capital stock or shares and paying no profits nor dividends, does not come +under the head of a charitable institution so as to relieve it from +liability for negligence.(829) + +*471.* _Equity, Repair, Injuries._--A cemetery association may by bill in +equity be forced to keep walks and drives in good repair and consequently +is liable for injuries resulting from its negligence.(830) + + + + + +CHAPTER XXXIV. MISCELLANEOUS + + +*472.* _Societies, Law._--Religious societies organized in connection with +a church or congregation are in law civil societies and not ecclesiastical +corporations, and are governed by the law of the land. Therefore, the law +of fraternities fully covers all questions that arise in such societies. +The subject is too comprehensive to be treated at any length here.(831) + +*473.* _Society, Bishop._--A society may expel a member on due notice and a +fair trial. The refusal of the bishop to recognize a fraternity organized +as a Roman Catholic society, does not prevent the society and its officers +from exercising the powers of a religious corporation conferred by law nor +prohibit its members from maintaining their religious worship.(832) + +*474.* _Priest, Doorkeeper, Policemen, Arrest._--A priest who was in charge +of a parish and had control of the temporalities consisting of pew-rents, +Sunday and other collections, graveyard, church, school, fees, and +donations, on account of disorderly behavior of members issued tickets to +those to be admitted and ordered a doorkeeper to prevent others from +entering the church. A woman without a ticket and talking loudly, +endeavored to force her way into the church, although there were several +policemen on duty who attempted to stop her. She was arrested and her +husband brought suit for false imprisonment. The court held that a +clergyman has a right to keep disturbers out of the church and that the +doorkeepers have a right to use sufficient force to carry out the orders +of the priest; but when a doorkeeper went beyond those orders by causing +the arrest of the woman, he was not acting within the apparent scope of +his employment and the priest was not liable.(833) + +*475.* _Saloon, Church, License._--A man owned premises that had been +occupied as a saloon from 1894. In 1896 the New York law prohibiting +saloons to be licensed within 200 feet of a church, except places where +liquor traffic had been carried on prior to that time, was passed. In 1898 +a church was built within 200 feet of the saloon in question. After the +building of the church, the saloon was vacated for about ten days during a +change of saloonkeepers, and an action was brought to revoke the license +of the new saloonkeeper. The court held that the incidental interruption +of the business did not bring the place within the prohibition of the law, +and that the license could not be revoked.(834) + +*476.* _Y. M. C. A._--The Y. M. C. A. on account of giving lunches, +lectures, and having a gymnasium, for which charges are made, is not a +charitable institution so as to be exempt from liability in case of +negligence. Property is exempt only when used for exempt purposes +exclusively.(835) + +*477.* _Students, Vote, Residence._--Students at a seminary studying for +the priesthood do not thereby lose their residence at their homes and are +not entitled to vote where a college is located. The fact that they intend +to remain for four years, become clergymen, and then go to wherever they +may be called, does not give them the right of residence, and there is no +distinction between them and any other students away from home at +school.(836) However, a student of full age might become a voter in the +college precinct if he has no other fixed domicile.(837) + +*478.* _"__My Wife, Anna Jones,__"__ Divorce, Insurance._--A bequest or +devise to "my wife, Anna Jones," is not changed by a divorce without some +evidence to prove that the testator did not intend his divorced wife to +share in his estate, unless the judgment of divorce made a division of the +property. The same is true of a policy of insurance or benefit +certificate. However, there are exceptions that weaken the rule and make +its application in some States uncertain.(838) + +*479.* _Bells, Sick, Injunction._--On the complaint of an injured person, a +court will issue an injunction restraining the ringing of church, convent, +or other bells, at unusual hours or when their noise is injurious to the +sick, or when their vibration affects other premises. As the law of +nuisances applies in such cases, an exact statement of when the court +should issue the injunction or whether the injunction should be temporary +or perpetual, can not be given; but when the personal or property rights +of others are affected, an injunction may be granted. The fact that the +bells are chimes or part of a clock does not change the rule.(839) + +*480.* _Marriage, Impediments, Recording._--Legal marriage may be +contracted only between unmarried persons not related within the +prohibited degrees of consanguinity or affinity, of lawful age and +sufficient mental and physical capacity. Statutes vary greatly. In some +States affinity is not considered a legal objection and first cousins may +marry; in others, both are prohibited and other limitations of +relationship, race, and color are fixed, and registration of the clergymen +and licenses to wed are required. Also, the clergyman must report the +marriage promptly to the proper office. Fines, penalties, and imprisonment +are usually provided for violating the law. Informal marriages may or may +not be voidable or void.(840) + +*481.* _Charivari, Wedding Pranks._--Charivari, assaults, and disorderly +conduct are unlawful at all times, and can not be justified by +custom.(841) A newly wedded man who was serenaded (charivaried) by his +neighbors by firing guns, blowing horns, beating pans, rattling +horse-fiddles, etc., after ordering the rioters off fired into the crowd +and wounded one of them. On trial for assault with intent to kill, the +groom was acquitted. Shooting might not be justifiable in cases where less +potent agencies, such as a horsewhip or dogs, are sufficient, or where the +immediate protection of person or property does not call for it. The law +should be invoked when no exigency for force exists.(842) + +*482.* _Infallibility of Courts._--When a question of law at issue in a +case is duly presented to a supreme court which is the court of last +resort, its decision thereon becomes "the law of the case" and is +thereafter binding upon the court itself and all the courts inferior to +it; and no matter how often that identical case may come before the court +on subsequent appeals, the questions already decided therein will not be +reconsidered. It is interesting to compare this principle of our courts +with Papal infallibility.(843) Courts do not always adhere to the +rule.(844) + +*483.* _Money Stolen, Bailed or Loaned, Insolvency, Gifts._--Property +stolen by A. or left with him as bailee to be returned in specie, can not +be given away by him for charity. Also, when a man is insolvent he has no +right to give away any of his property.(845) That has been the rule of law +since Coke laid down the maxim: "A man must be just before he is +generous." One is insolvent when his debts exceed the value of his +unexempt property.(846) When an insolvent debtor makes a gift, a creditor +may sue and recover from the donee; or in a proper case the creditor may +force the debtor into bankruptcy to recover the gift.(847) The want of +knowledge or good faith of the donee is immaterial and no defense to an +action to recover the property.(848) + + + + + +INDEX + + +The References Are To The Sections. + +A + +Abandoned cemetery, 449;

Special rules, set forth in the +General Terms of Use part of this license, apply to copying and +distributing Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} electronic works to protect the Project +Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} concept and trademark. Project Gutenberg is a registered +trademark, and may not be used if you charge for the eBooks, unless you +receive specific permission. If you do not charge anything for copies of +this eBook, complying with the rules is very easy. You may use this eBook +for nearly any purpose such as creation of derivative works, reports, +performances and research. They may be modified and printed and given away +-- you may do practically _anything_ with public domain eBooks. +Redistribution is subject to the trademark license, especially commercial +redistribution. + + + +THE FULL PROJECT GUTENBERG LICENSE + + +_Please read this before you distribute or use this work._ + +To protect the Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} mission of promoting the free +distribution of electronic works, by using or distributing this work (or +any other work associated in any way with the phrase "Project Gutenberg"), +you agree to comply with all the terms of the Full Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} +License (available with this file or online at +http://www.gutenberg.org/license). + + +Section 1. + + +General Terms of Use & Redistributing Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} electronic works + + +1.A. + + +By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} electronic work, +you indicate that you have read, understand, agree to and accept all the +terms of this license and intellectual property (trademark/copyright) +agreement. If you do not agree to abide by all the terms of this +agreement, you must cease using and return or destroy all copies of +Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} electronic works in your possession. If you paid a fee +for obtaining a copy of or access to a Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} electronic work +and you do not agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement, you may +obtain a refund from the person or entity to whom you paid the fee as set +forth in paragraph 1.E.8. + + +1.B. + + +"Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark. It may only be used on or +associated in any way with an electronic work by people who agree to be +bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few things that you can +do with most Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} electronic works even without complying +with the full terms of this agreement. See paragraph 1.C below. There are +a lot of things you can do with Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} electronic works if you +follow the terms of this agreement and help preserve free future access to +Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} electronic works. See paragraph 1.E below. + + +1.C. + + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation" or +PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project +Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} electronic works. Nearly all the individual works in the +collection are in the public domain in the United States. If an individual +work is in the public domain in the United States and you are located in +the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from copying, +distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative works based on +the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of +course, we hope that you will support the Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} mission of +promoting free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project +Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for +keeping the Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} name associated with the work. You can +easily comply with the terms of this agreement by keeping this work in the +same format with its attached full Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} License when you +share it without charge with others. + + +1.D. + + +The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern what you +can do with this work.

If you received the +work electronically, the person or entity providing it to you may choose +to give you a second opportunity to receive the work electronically in +lieu of a refund. If the second copy is also defective, you may demand a +refund in writing without further opportunities to fix the problem. + + +1.F.4. + + +Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth in +paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS,' WITH NO OTHER +WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO +WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE. + + +1.F.5. + + +Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied warranties or the +exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.

It exists because of the +efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from people in all walks +of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the assistance +they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~}'s goals and ensuring +that the Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} collection will remain freely available for +generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive +Foundation was created to provide a secure and permanent future for +Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} and future generations.

Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are +particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United States. +Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable +effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these +requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not +received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or +determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit +http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have +not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against +accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us +with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any +statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the +United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation methods +and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways including +checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate, please +visit: http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate + + +Section 5. + + + General Information About Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} electronic works. + + +Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared with +anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} +eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + +Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~} eBooks are often created from several printed editions, +all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. unless a copyright +notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance +with any particular paper edition. + +Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's eBook +number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII, compressed +(zipped), HTML and others. + +Corrected _editions_ of our eBooks replace the old file and take over the +old filename and etext number. The replaced older file is renamed. +_Versions_ based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving +new filenames and etext numbers. + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + + http://www.gutenberg.org + + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg{~TRADE MARK SIGN~}, including how +to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, +how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email +newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + + + + + +***FINIS*** + \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/35563.zip b/35563.zip new file mode 100644 index 0000000..fe5bbee Binary files /dev/null and b/35563.zip differ diff --git a/LICENSE.txt b/LICENSE.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..6312041 --- /dev/null +++ b/LICENSE.txt @@ -0,0 +1,11 @@ +This eBook, including all associated images, markup, improvements, +metadata, and any other content or labor, has been confirmed to be +in the PUBLIC DOMAIN IN THE UNITED STATES. + +Procedures for determining public domain status are described in +the "Copyright How-To" at https://www.gutenberg.org. + +No investigation has been made concerning possible copyrights in +jurisdictions other than the United States.
