to be In violation of the tenets of the

were afterwards published under hit
authority under the title Religion end
Polltcs The presentment against him

which are the basis for the charge that
ho Intentionally expressed disbelief In
these doctrines of the church
Th Ulvlnltv of Christ the Concnp
ton of the Holy Ghost the Virgin
birth the Hodily Insurrection and the
Trinity
A second specification under this
first charge I that he made utterance
of it like nature as recently nsDec 11
