The plaintiff, John V. Dittemore, the senior Director of the Church, whose sen ice antedates the decease of Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy, and who his associates sought to remove from office, seems to have been completely justified in his contentions that undesirable and unwholesome conditions have existed in the administration of the church govBoston, ernment Judge Dodge finds fmm the evidence, which includes testimony by the majority Directors themselves, that Mr. Dittemores dismissal was for the purpose of doing away with opposition to the wishes of the majority and also because Mr. Dittemore had sought to establish a standard of propriety and conduct higher than desired by his associates. It is also found that a principal reason for the hostility to Mr. Dittemore was because of his rebuke to his associates on numerous occasions when offensive language wa used and offensive jests made at meetings of the governing body of the church. Judge Dodge holds that Mr. Dittemore is still legally a Director and that the effort to remove him and appoint a successor more sympathetic with the policy of the board is legally null and void. In regard to the Illegality of Mr. Dittemores dismissal, Judge Dodge says that no Director could fairly be supposed to hhve accepted his position upon the understanding that he was subject to instant, arbitrary dismissal whenever a majority of his associates might find it expedient. The Master finds that the vote attempting to dismiss Mr. Dittemore was only the formal adoption of n conclusion previously agreed on outside the meeting and that it was for his associates, then accusing him and at the same time proposing to also act as his judges, to afford him such opportunity to he heard in his own defense upon the charges made as would satisfy the requirements of natural justice. lie also finds that the complaints against Mr. Dittemore were not founded upon first hand knowledge and were inadequate ground for any but a purely arbitrary dismissal. The Judge also finds that there was never any question as to Mr, Dittemores sincerity in maintaining his position and that nothing said or done by him in maintaining his opinions could have constituted adequate ground for dismissing him. unless the major itys power to dismiss could lawfully have been uced by it for the sole purpose of stifling nnv opposition in the Board to their wishes. The Muster declares that Directors Dickey. Neal. Merritt and Rath von were animate'! by personal hos tility toward Mr. Dittemore and that they had long planned among them selves to get rid of him. One of the occasions when bad feeling was engen dered was when Dittemore refused to join Dickey, Neal, and Merritt in at tending a play in New7 York which Dittemore considered objectionable and which had as the leading player a person of notorious reputation. On this occasion Director Merritt testified that he urged Dittemore to accompany them and said: Come on with us. You are not so much better than the rest of us. Judge Dodge also finds from the evidence that There were occasions in 1917, 1913 and 1919 upon which, at meetings of the Directors, the plaintiff (Dittemore) expressed disapproval of utterances by Dickey of a kind toler able only when men only, and men not disposed" to be scrupulous in such mutters, are the hearers thereby arousing resentment on Dickeys part, and sometimes on the part of Merritt and The testimony regarding Rathvon. eight or nine such instances was taken by Judge Dodge in private. In regard to all of these occurences Judge Dodge finds from the testimony of Mr. Dittemore and others, including of the defendant, the Directors Dickey, Neal, Merritt and Rathvon themselves, that Mr. 'Dittemores account of them was substantially true and that his "repeated insistence upon a, standard of propriety in language or conduct stricter than that accepted by his associates mate1, rially augmented their hostility and cross-examinati- When Youre Nervous Whatever the cause overwork, orry grief, loss of sleep, excitement, business troubles, stimulants, narcotics theres one medicine that will help you.
