Thoaghi Ouce to Have Bam From Mav's Forerumner New York, Feb. 20 (P—Th much-patched “million dollar toot! once hailed by the American mu- seum of natural history as proof that a forerunner of man lived In Nebrasks, has now been identified by the same oaganization as the mo- lar of an extinct species of wild pi Retraction Made The retraction has been made by | Professor Willlam K. Gregory of the museum following discovery of sev- eral similar teeth in the same lo- cality in association with the re- maine of a prosthennope or extinct pecarry, ‘The tooth was found in a riverbed in the western state In 1922 by Har- old J. Cook, a Nebraska geologist. Subjected to every test known the February, 1925, bulletin of the mu- seum sald: “Every suggestion made by sclentifie eceptics was weighed and found wanting.” The tooth, which often was thrown up to William Jennings Bry- an in the course of the evolution controversy because it came from his home state, got its name “‘mil- lion dollar tooth,” from an incident in the laboratory where it was be- ing X-rayed. As Professor Gregory handed it to an assistant who was to make the pictures he said: “Now be mighty careful that tooth is worth a million dollars.” The assistant, flustered, dropped the tooth to the tiled floor. It broke inte many pleces, but these were picked up and cemented together and the X-raying and the controver- | sy went on. The tooth was known as the Hes- peropitheous Haroldcookil, the lat- ter name in honor of the geologist who found it. The molar closely re- sembled that of a known tooth of Pithecanthropus, the Java ape man. Scores of learned and popular magazine articles were written about it, sermons were preached against the tooth and it was an ar- senal of ammunition for the evolu- tionists in their war with the funda- mentalists of the churches. Dr. John Roach Straton and Billy Sunday were among those who scoffed at the million dollar molar. Reciting the various steps taken by himself and others in studies of the tooth, Professor Gregory related the finding of the peccary teeth last summer and sald: “Thus it seems to me far more probable that we were formerly de- ceived by the resemblance of the much-worn type to equally worn chimpanzee molars than that the type is really a unique token of the presence of anthropoids in North America.” REV. H. I. BODLEY CALLED TO REWARD WILD PIG 1877, and later became secretary to the latter's mephew, H. C. Potter. His first pastorate was at Canaan, where he remained for four years. Cansan he went to North Adams, Masa, where he was in charge of 8t. John's church for eight years, Later he went to Grace Cathedral, Topeka, Kansas, being dean of that church for two years. In 1888 he was private chaplain to Bishop Henry B. Paddock of Massa- chusetts, in attendance at the Lam- beth conference in England. In 1899 he came to New Britain and began his first service as rector of 8t. Mark's on August 6 of that year. In February, 1921, almost 23 years later, he retired to become rec- itor emeritus. He was correspond- |ing secretary of the Society for the | Increase of the Ministry and in that position he had many students in | his care. Retained Interest in Church | Even to the last he was active in church affairs and often took a | prominent part in conducting the |services. He was a keen golfer and was often seen on the grounds of the Shuttle Meadow club. At his retirement from the rectorship of the church, his assistant, Rev. Sam- uel Sutcliffe, was made rector and is still officiating in that capacity. | During Mr. Bodley's pastorate, 8t. | Mark's church was located on the site of the present Burritt Hotel but |there was an ever-growing move- ment for its removal. It was Mr. Bodley who chose the present site adjoining the library on West Main street, his choice being actuated by {the fact that the church, if erected | there, would be on a hill at a turn in the road where it would stand | cut prominently, and would be sur- rounded by other fine buildings. | “Last year marked the golden wed- ding anniversary of Rev. Mr. Bod- {ley and Mrs. Bodley. In 1877, he married Mary Anna Gillesple, the wedding being performed in the “Little Church Around the Corner.” Bestdes his widow he is survived by two sons, Dr. George H. Bodley of this city and Charles G. Bodley of | Melrose, Mass.; two daughters, Mrs. | George H. Pound of New Brunswick, |N. J. and Mrs. B. H. Olmstead of Roscoe, N. Y., a sister, Mrs. Rufus | Davenport of St. Paul, Minn.; and several grandchildren. | He kept a record of every service which he conducted with the sub- |jcct of the sermon he preached. | This record, embracing four volumes, |shows that he led several services lat the Jefferson Market prison in New York City. Rev. Mr. Bodley has not only con- fined himself to the ministry but in | his younger days did other work. As early as at the age of 18 he was {appointed to supervise a group of men in the construction of a gas house in §t. Louis. At another time he helped to reshingle the roof of a brewery in the west which had| burned down. For a time he was | associated with a wholesale house and Jearned a great deal about bank- | ing. He sald much of his early ex- perience had helped him in later life. Rev. Mr. Bodley held broad vlews on religious subjects. |late Rev. John T. Winters, pastor of §. Mary’s church, were warm triends and Mr. Bodley frequently | attended anniversary exercises of the |¥. M. T. A. & B. soclety as the guest of Father Winters. Missing Harvard Man S o AMOS P.

B. Lauria after the con- gregation at St. Cuthbert's church for hours had sung hymns to pre- vent his sermon. Both the morning and evening services at the church were stopped and after the moyning service yes- terday a crowd of approximately 7,000 persons gathered and pushed and shoved the vicar about. Two persons were injured before the crowd could be dispersed and the vicar escorted to safety. The protests against the alleged Anglo-Catholic services started shortly after morning services start- ed. The congregation objected to the Eucharist (sung at the communion) and when the vicar entered the pul- pit to deliver his sermon the con- gregation started to sing hymnsa. The vicar made several attempts to begin his sermon but the crowd of 1,000—all standing—continued their singing, emphasizing particu- larly “Onward Christian Soldiers” and “God Save the King." After two hours of such disorder the Vicar finally quit the pulpit and left the church. Outside a crowd estimated at be- tween 7,000 and 8,000 gathered and started pushing and shoving the vicar. He finally was shoved into the shrubbery surrounding the church and both foot and mounted police were necessary to escort the viear to safety and disperse the crowd. Several ugly scenes were reported before the crowd had been dispersed. The night service was to have been in charge of Curate N. Craw- shaw. He arose to preach and the crowd again stood and started eing- ing. This lasted for seventy minutes and the curate was unable to start preaching. Finally Vicar Lavria closed the service and in company with Curate Crawshaw was escorted home by police, A" crowd followed them, jeering and hissing. The demonstrations were sald to though of leaser proportion, weekly for the past several montha.
