ployed as nurse n the family Of Edward
T. Outram. the now Getaulting secretary
OF the Mountain View Cemetery Associa-

IN the cemetery.
Moser, who is ar old man, was a men,
Der Of the Adventist church, and, meeting
Miss Cameron, fell IN love with her. She
failed to respond 10 his suit, knowing him
10 be man OF family, and he thereupon
entered upon a systematic method of per-
scouting Che girl, accusing her OF wrong
dOiT1. The girl was nearly Frustrated by
his attacks. The Outrams defended her in
every possible way and in consequence
were brought into unpleasant notoriety in
the case. MOser continued his abuse until
he was arrested on the charge of criminal
tenced TO a years imprisonment.

covered her whereabouts. Schaffer will

endeavor 10 assist the young lady in pre-
venting 4 renewal of the abuse.
