Reverend no. 6's story (Crowley, Romanism a menace to the nation, 50th thousand,1912)

Text: "Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women..." Daniel 11:37 "Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; Forbidding to marry..." 1 Timothy 4:1-3

Quote:

Rev. No. 6.—A Fiend.

   He is a priest who ravished a defenceless fifteen-year-old orphan, who had just arrived from Ireland. He committed the crime in his parochial school hall, where he was in the habit of offering the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for the children of the parish. He kept her in his power through fear. Finally he forced her into public prostitution, and he often visits her for immoral purposes in her abode of shame.

   He has an honorable place in the published list of the Catholic clergy of his Archdiocese. She is numbered among the inmates of a brothel. He is beloved as a "Reverend Father in God." She is loathed as a common harlot.
