Robertson - e MINISTER’S DUE REFUSAL UPHELD BUDAPEST, June 3—The dueling code of Hungary was given another blow recently when the lord lieut- enant of the county of Pest up- held Rev. Dr. Alexander Veoros, rector of the Protestant communi- ty, in a refusal to fight. The minister, who is also direc- tor of a high school, had besn boy- cotted by the “Gentry Club” of the town of Kunszentmiklos. He ap- pealed to the official. The hearing developed that the challenge had come from one of Dr. Veoros' colleagues whose wife was offended by remarks made by the rector’s sister. The lord lieutenant said it was ridiculous to try to force a duel upon one who was forbidden by his religion to use arms against his neighbor, especially when he was also a teacher of youth. ————————— Major Jordan Lawrence Mott Passes Away, Ore.
