The Johnstow n Deiiuirrat of Wednesday
says: Yesterday morning Constable W.
II. Wright, of Adison, Somerset county,
arrested the Itev. Robert II. Singer, of
California. Washington county, for many
years a resident of Johnstown, on a charge
of assault and battery wiih attempt to
commit rape. The reverend gentleman
was arrested at lck Haven and passed
through this place yesterday after
noou for Adison. The urosecutor is
Mrs. Alice Jeffries, a married lady of good
character. Mr. Singer has been conduct
ing revival meetings for some time at dif
ferent places through Somerset and ad
joining counties. Sunday, April 30. Sing
er was holding a revival meeting at Adi
son, and in this way gained the acquaint
ance uf Mrs. Jeffries, who is a member of
the same denomination.
' In her information she alleges that he
abused her in a shameful manner. Cou
stable Wright passed through this city
Saturday o-i his way to A 1 toon a, and, after
visiting several towns east of Altoona,
succeeded in arresting his man. The
prisoner was not inclined to .talk on the
subject when pressed for an expression as
to his guilt or innocense. The constable
says that Singer claims that he will tie
able to clear himself of the charge when
the case oines up for trial atcourt. Sing
er is a married mau and has a large family.
It Is rumored that he was at Lock Haveu
attending court on a similiar charge hen
be w as arrested, and that the case there
was postponed until another time.
The Uev. K. H.'Singer Is the oldest son
of Isaac Singer, who a quarter of a century
ago carried on a blacksmith shop iu the
Vj'est end of Ebensbiirg.

May 3oih and 3UI, has U-eu postponed un
