SPIRITUAL WIVES OF
DEAD LEADER WEEP
ENGLISH SECT LIVED IN ALMOST
COMPLETE SECLUSION MAG
NIFICENT HOME
BRIDGE WATER. England, April
22. (jp)—The death of John Hugh
Smyth-Piggott has left many “spir
itual wives” in tears at his “Abode
of Love” and for the second time
has deprived the Agapemonites of a
Messiah.
Smyth-Piggott. whose position was
similar to tjiat of "King” Benjamin
Purnell of Benton Harbor, Mich., was
: well educated and served as a curate,
sailor and Salvation Army officer
before he entered the Agapemonite
sect.
The Agapemonites were organized
by Brother Prince, who first pro
claimed himself John the Baptist, and
eventually the Messiah. When he
died in 1899 the colony bega’n to dis
intergate.
Smyth. Piggott was then only a
preacher in the sect, but he conduct
ed a campaign and in 1902 announc
ed that Brother Prince had merely
gone on high to pave the way for
Smyth-Piggott’s elevation to the Mes
siahship.
The new leader then took up his
residence at Prince’s magnificent
home at Spaxton. Miss Ruth Preece,
who was known as Sister Ruth, be
came his first “spiritual wife.”
Although Smyth-Piggott asserted
the members of the colony at the
“Abode of Love” all lived in “spirit
ual love” together, the birth of a son
to Sister Ruth aroused the people
and later the registrar of births, was
called to the colony to record the
birth of two other children to Sister
Ruth. «
“Spiritual bridas” multiplied at
the “Abode of Love,” where the in
mates lived in luxury. At one time j
Sister Ruth deserted the place and
was succeeded by another woman
known as Sister Grace. But Sister
| Ruth returned before Smyth-Piggott’s
|death and was with him when inful
| enza caused his death recently.
He was expelled from the church
of England in 1908. The indigna
tion against him became- so acute
that a crowd of men went to the
“Abode of Love” and tarred and
feather a man they thought was the
leader. But it later became known
i that thay had wrecked vehgence on
Smyth-Piggott’s secretary. Smyth
Piggott founded a branch of the sect
in Norway and several Norwegian
“spiritual brides” found their way to
Spaxton.
When Smyth-Piggott joined the
colony in 1899 he wras about 40 years
old. Few outsiders ever saw him, as
the colony lived in almost complete
•seclusion, but shortly before his
death he appeared in his garden and
neighbors said he was a tottering
old man.
SAFE AND SANE FAST FLYER
Joe Crosson, chief pilot for the
Fairbanks Airplane Corporation, the
pioneer air service company of the
Interior, recently made another fast
round trip to Livengood and return.
He was clocked back at the Fair
banks hangar of the company one
hour and 20 minutes for the round
trip. August Bostrum was a passen
ger on the trip.
