found guilty OF robbery, IN explaining her antece'

latter very nice point upon the subject OF demon
alizaton was involved IN this decision From the
printed report the inference would be that the Judge
thought the minister might have dangerously de-
moraliZng influence over the woman. The Judge
meant to express his fears that by sending the wo
man back to her ministerial employer she might
have demoralizng effect upon HIM ana his family
