Survivors of abuse 'heartened,' 'ecstatic' after action against ex-St. George's chaplain

The Episcopal Church issued "the most severe penalty" possible against Howard W. "Howdy" White Jr. when it removed him from the priesthood Monday, nearly 50 years after he was ordained.
Every diocesan bishop within the Episcopal Church — here and abroad — will be notified Wednesday.  White, 75, former associate chaplain at St. George's School, is one of six former staff or faculty members accused in the sex-abuse scandal that has rocked the elite Middletown prep school since last December.
