State ex rel. Attorney General v. Mt. Hope College Co.
State ex rel. Attorney General v. Mt. Hope College Co.
Opinion of the Court
It is not.supposed by any member of the court that the state charters institutions of learning with a view to authorizing the reprehensible practices of which the defendant has been guilty. Indeed its counsel do not attempt to show that its conduct has been consistent with the purposes of its organization. The only question of doubt is whether it should be ousted of the power to confer degrees fraudulently, or of its right to be a corporation. The former judgment is insisted upon because of the large responsibility of Galbreath for the fraudulent exercise of the powers of the defendant, and because the trustees demanded his resignation when the petition in this case informed them as to his bad character and misconduct.
But a consideration of all the facts shown by the evidence and found by the master leads to the con
Judgment of ouster.
