Mr. Heber Donaldson, a lawyer in Oil City, PA was suspended from the Presbyterian Church of Emlenton, PA in 1881 on charges that he had...danced on two occasions. He admitted during his trial before the Clarion Presbytery that while at a private party he had "walked through a quadrille." The text is an eloquent defense of actions, though it did not sway a majority of the elders
Donaldson lost his appeal in Emlenton, and was prohibited from rejoining the church of which he had been a lifelong member.
Text includes minutes of the sessions of the Presbyterian Church in Emlenton and other related records. He did later appeal to the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in Springfield, Illinois. The General Assembly found him not guilty.
