SAD CASE OF SEDUCTION.
Arrest Of a PhTsic1an~


clan, who came to this city from Augusta,
Ca, about q year since, was arrested on Thurs
day night upon the charge Of seduction aud
bastardy, preferred by one Mary Jane Houls-
by, girl Of seventeen years Of age, who
charges upon oath that the Doctor is the father
Of her Unborn babe.
It is alleged upon the part of the prosecu-
ton that the Doctor became acquainted with
the girl while attending her father, resident in
the West Division, during his illness. This
acquaintance ripencd into an intimacy which |
finally led to her seduction, which occurred |
some months since, during visit Of the girl |
to bis Office, to procure medicines. About six |
weeks ago the girl suddenly disappeared from
her fathers house. A search WIS instituted
By the family, but without avail, until they
had procured the services Of detectives, who
traced out the girl in house on Ontario
street. From her testimony it appears that
her condition becoming more and more
apparent daily, the Doctor sought an
opportunity, removed her to this
| house and procured an old woman to act in
| the capacity Of an attendant and nurse. It is
| further alleged that Stanley made frequent
visits to her and had administered medicines,
| eight bottles Of which were found in the
room, and are now undergoing analysis in the
| hands Of q chemist,
Stanley appeared before Justice Ml11iken
yesterday, waived examination aud gave bail
in the sum Of S700 for trial upon the charge Of
bastardy, AID. Baragwanath becoming his
surety. Immediately upon his discharge he
was re-arrested upon capias issued from the
Circuit Court upon q petition fled by the
girls father, who sues for seduction setting
his damages at s20.00o. Upon this charge bail
Was required in the sum Of $5, 900.
The above are the e. paTte facts in the case
as developed By the prosecution. Ofthe na-
ture Of the defense nc are ignorant. Tdadd
to the disagrceab1e features Of the affair, 1t is
asserted TINT the victim Of the alleged seduc-
ton Is possessed Of little intelligence, and
thus the more liable TO yield to the temptation
set in her way.
