New Yobk, l)eo. 4—Tito vil
lagers of Riverkcad, L. I., wore
vary much excited this morning
when it was stated that tho wife of
Rev. W. A. Downs, pastor of the
jVorthvillo Church,had eloped with
O. Mitchell Terry, one of the lead
ing men of the village and a deacon
of the church. Rev. Downs is one.
of the most popular clergymen in
the eastern part of Long Island.
He is heart-broken at his wifu’s in
fidelity. Ha tendered his resigna
tion as pastor, but it was not ac
cepted by tbc deacons. This morn
ing the clergyman received a tele
gram from his wile, which told him
that she was “happy with her dear
Terry, and would never return to
Riverhead." It is believed that the
couple have gone to Florida where
Terry has a sister who eloped some
time ago with Capt. l’enny, leaving
four children after her. Terry
was an active politician (n Suffolk
county.

ger's committee will held its first
