An alumnus of St. Paul’s School in Concord, New Hampshire, has accused
the Rev. Howard W. "Howdy" White Jr. of sexually abusing him during
White's time there between 1967 through 1971, the school confirmed
Tuesday. White served as a chaplain and teacher at the prestigious
Episcopal boarding institution.
White, who subsequently became assistant chaplain at St. George’s School
in Middletown, is one of a half-dozen former staff members who figured
in a sex-abuse scandal at St. George's. A Rhode Island State Police
investigation, concluded in June, found no prosecutable criminal
misconduct against any of the alleged perpetrators, or the school, in
part due to statutes of limitations.
