Kir*. Staunton's Dissatisfaction with Her
Husband's Domestic Arrangements.
Two Women in Ono HonsshoM—The Clergyman
Arraigned Before lll» l'eere In the llrnoklyn
Fresh)tery.
Wew York Herald, 28th.
The Brooklyn presbytery met in the
Franklin avenue Presbyterian church yes
terday afternoon, and proceeded with the
trial of the Rev. Benjamin Staunton, pas
tor of the Fort Greene Presbyterian
church, who is charged with conduct un
becoming a minister of the gospel, inas
much that he had on one occasion assaulted
hla wife, causing her to cry out “Murder!”
end had kept a woman in his house against
the wishes and protest of his wife, who
Was made jealous on account of such ac
tion, and believed that he was not faithful
to her as a husband. The above charges
were presented in two specifications.
There was a large attendance outside
the pastors who represent the presbytery.
The Rev. Dr. T. De WittTalmage presided
as moderator.
Rev. Mr. Staunton occupied a front seat
beside his counsel, Rev. Dr. Hugh Smith
Carpenter and the Rev. Mr. J. W. Hage
ns an.
After some discussion touching the
methods of procedure, the defendant stood
up and, in a voice choked with emotion,
pleaded "Not guilty.”
Rev. Mr. Ilageman then read a long
statement, which he classified ns a de
murrer, and said the preamble in the
charge was a distinct and wholesale charge
without any foundation. It did not show
that witnesses hnd been cited, no place
was mentioned and it was an attempt to
hurt the case for the defense.
The demurrer was withdrawn after dis
cussion.
Rev. Mr. Foote then read his address,
and said he intended to show that Mr.
Staunton’s actions were entirely wrong—
that he and Mrs. Mary Laidler had sang
together; that she hnd visited him during
his wife’s absence, had taken her furniture
into his house, and that on one occasion
he hud lost a bout, to go to Saratoga for the
purpose of remaining in Mrs. Laidler’s
company.
BROTHER-IN-LAW TESTIFIES.
The first witness called was the brother
of Mrs. Staunton, who said his name was
John II. Trevor and tbnt he resided at
No. HI North Portland avenue, Brooklyn.
On examination by the Rev. Mr. Foote for
the prosecution witness testified: “I know
the defendant. I am u brother of Mrs.
Staunton. They lived at No. 122 Linden
street in the fall of 188-1. I lived there
with them for a short time. I know Mrs.
Mary Laidler; she was also living there.
Mr. Staunton told me that Mrs. Laidler
was not living with her husband as he was
a man of baa habits. She first came to
live with Mr. Staunton iu August, before
Mr. Staunton came home. Mrs. Staunton
Was at Saratoga Springs. When Mr.
Staunton came home I had a conversation
with 1dm. He said he had boarded with
Mrs. laidler, and she was the only person
who had given him any help out of all his
congregations. He eulogized Mrs. Laidler
to me—said she had an ungcl’s voice,
was a woman not of muny words hut of
great actions, was very ladylik i in her
appearance, and he said he thought that
Carrie (Mrs. Staunton) ought to write to
Mrs. Lnidler to stay at the house. I told
him that was none of my business. He
Mid he had given Mrs. Laidler permission
to put her furniture in the house. I had only
been there a few days when the furniture
arrived. When Mrs. Laidler came to the
house she acted as a general housekeeper.
I assisted her in putting the furniture in
its place. During September, 1884, Mr.
Staunton said he was going to take the
evening boat for Saratoga. He said lie
..Would get a good night’s rest and it would
- Ffte cheaper than goiug by rail. We had a
cup of coffee and Mrs. Laidler
got it for us. I said to my brother-
.-ail-law, “Ben, its time you were going
ifyouwuntto catch the boat.” He said,
“Yes it’s half-past three o’clock, but in
stead of leaving the house he went up
stairs—that is, on the top floor—and I went
up to the parlor floor. He oalled down
‘Mrs. Laidler, Mrs. Laidler, come up and
assist me move something.’ Mrs. Laidler
then went up stairs and remained in the
hall bedroom for about fifteen minutes. At
the expiration of that time Staunton came
down stairs singing, and in a short time
after Mrs. Laidler came down stairs and
walked into the parlor. I noticed that she
was very much flushed, ns if she hnd been
under considerable exertion. Mr. Staun
ton asked her to sing, and she replied that
she didn't feel like it. I then told Mr.
Staunton tlmt it would lie impossible for
him to catch the boat, and he replied, Oh,
well, I’ll take the train.’
ADVISED TO OBJECT.
“When my sister came home she asked
me ns soon as she had an opportunity what
1 thought of tile arrangement in having
Mrs. Lnidler remain in the house. I said my
advice would be to object to any such ar
rangement. She then said that it would
be little use for her to object, as her hus
band would insist, and for the sake of
eace and harmony she would ask Mrs.
.aidler to remain. Mrs. Laidler came the
next day and took up her permanent resi
dence in the house. After that Mr. Staun
ton and Mrs. Laidler would sit up very
late, while Mrs. Staunton went to bed
usually at 9 o’clock.”
Tlte witness was asked whoro he slept,
but he said lie could not recall what room
he occupied.
“Several days after Mrs. Lnidler came to
live with Mr. Staunton,” he continued,
“my sister said she was not comfortable,
and was afraid that ‘Ben’ was playing at
his old game. I told Iter to ask Mrs. Laid
ler to leave the house as soon as conven
ient. My sister afterward informed me
that she had told Mrs. Laidler to go and
while we were talking in the kitchen Mr.
Staunton came down stairs and walked
across the room, pointing his finger at his
wife, and commenced a tirade of abuse
which lasted half an hour. Ttie only thing
he did not do was toswear. He said to his
wife: ‘You infamous woman! How dare
you, in my house, insult my guest! Mrs.
Lnidler is a better woman than you ever
thought of being.’ My sister stood it pa
tiently and said: ‘Ben, come in the base
ment and have some coffee.’
"While sitting at the table Mr. Staunton
put his hand into his pocket and took out
some money and threw it on t lie table, and
in an excited voice said to my sister, ‘Now,
madam, take that ami leave this house
this night, and go home and help vour
mother milk the cows.’ (Laughter.) ‘Your
child 1 shall keep and unless you apolo
gize to Mrs. Laidler I shall insist upon
your leaving this night.’ This occurred
about 10 o’clock at night, after they had
come home from prayer meeting. Mr.
Staunton then went up stairs, and my
sister said to me, ‘John, I shall leave
him. I have got to leave him sometime.’
I said, ‘Hang on to him and make him
support you.’ She replied, ‘Oh, I’m so
miserable!’and then on my advice, she
went to Mrs. Laidler and asked her to
remain.”
A OOOD REASON FOR LEAVING.
On cross-examination bv the Rev. Mr.
Carpenter witness said that when he stop
ped with Mr. Staunton his wife was with
Mrs. Staunton at Saratoga Springs. “I
was out of work at the time,” he contin
ued. “ I did not pay any board at Mr.
Staunton’s. The reason why I left was
because Mr. Staunton threatened to kick
me out because I took up the gauntlet in
my sister’s behalf. Mr. Staunton staved
with my mother for six weeks when he
"h ,0 -^~ iU1 '1 my mother prayed over
Mr. Staunton arose at this point and said
E
he objected to the answer, as it was going
back to his boyhood, which the prosecu
tion had claimed they would not do. He
had paid ail his bills, and thank God, ho
owed no person a penny save his mother,
who was dead,
Mr. H. G. H. Trevor wns then called, but
as Mrs. Maria Pratt, another witness, had
to lenve town Hhe was called instead ol Mr.
Trevor.
Rev. Mr. Carpenter snid: “Is this Mrs.
Pratt, who has been referred to os a wash-
womun ?"
Rev. Mr. Foote—I object in the name of
God, truth and righteousness, to the re
marks of the counsel.
Itev. Mr. Carpenter—I did not say any
thing out of the way.
Rev. Mr. Foote—You called this woman
a washwoman.
Moderator Talmage—He did not.
Mrs. Pratt—I’m not Mrs. Pratt, the
laundress.
HOUSEKEEPING FOR A TIME.
Witness then said she lived at No. 124
Linden street, next door to where
Mr. Staunton resided. “I was given
charge of the house," she said, “before
Mrs. Laidler came. I noticed a difference
between Mr. and Mrs. Staunton after Mrs.
Laidler came to live with them. Previous
to that they were very devoted to each
other. Mrs. Staunton tola me that she was
anxious that this scandal would not touch
Mr. Staunton in his church. This was af
ter Mrs. Laidler leit. I told her that a mod
est woman would not usurp the place of a
wife, and I believed what I said. Mrs.
Staunton had a fine temper. When asked
if she had a good temper Mrs, Pratt said,
“I guess so; if you step on me I’ll turn on
you.”
The trial was adjourned until this after
noon.

Golden's Improved Iron Screw Cotton Press.
This cut is an illustration of “GoUletT* Improved Iron Screw Cotton Pres*,”
erected in the most substantial and convenient manner. It is simple in construction, and so well
illustrated by the cut, that scarcely a word is needed by way of explanation. Being simply an
Iron Screw anti Xut substituted for wood, the wood work of its construction, and the manner
of operating it, are subslar stantially the same as in the old style of wooden plantation screw, but
the timbers required are not so heavy or long. Most planters of experience prefer the wooden screw
to any of the more modern Cotton Presses in use, but the difficulty and uncertainty of controlling
labor and mechanical skill in the season of the year most convenient to the planter for their erec
tion, usually renders it a matter of economy, as well as necessity, with him, to buy some kind of
Press that requires but little mechanical skill to put it in operation. “Golden** Screw,” is a
sort of compromise between the old style of wooden screw and the modern Cotton Press, combining
the principal advantages of the former with the convenience and economy of the latter. It can be
operated with greater facility than the wooden screw, and the rapidity of its performance, like that
of the wooden screw, or any other press, depends upon its management—as on the old style screws
some planters would pack ten bales, and others thirty or thirty-five bales per day. Any ordinary
mechanic who can make a good plantation gate, or common plow stock, can do the wood work.
Within the last eleven years we have made and sold a great many of these screws, and have yet
to hear of the first one that has not given entire satisfaction.
We furnish all the Iron Work for these Screws, of which we make two sizes, and frilly warranted.
