Another case OF young girl gone
wrong came up in Judge Fishers court,
County Agent W. F. Miller, who came
out to look up the matter, being present.
TIE girl's name was Eva May Bowhall
and she wss arrested on complaint OF
her father, David Bowhall, on the charge
OF frequentiDg places OF improper charac-
ter against the wishes and orders OF her
parents.
The girl was but IA years OF age but
fr m the testimony introduced showed
that she had seen some pretty swift life
lately. The principal witness against
the girl was her half-sister who related
how the girl had resided at her home
and how she had tried to do everything
she could to assist her, promising her
good home as long as she behaved her
self, and attempting to lead her in the
right path when she noticed that she
was going astray.
However, she was unable to do any
thing with Eva, who persisted in gong
out evenings and staying all hours OF the
night. On several OCCASIONS enc had
gone and had not returned until the next
day. One or two of these instances the
witness had inquired into and found that
she bad stayed at places OF questionable
character. Correspondence which she
had had with a young man OF the city
had also been intercepted and tended to
show that she had not planned for her
own benefit.
Eva herself was put on the stand and
acknowledged some Of the accusations
against her, but denied that she had
done anything she ought not to have
done. However, Mr.. Miller in question:
ing her, brought out number OF facts
which would make some of Red Jackets
young men blush II repeated, and also |
caught the girl misstatiDg the facts In |
repeating them. Although no proof of
any immoral act on her part was fur
nished she was sentenced to the Indus
trial School for Girls at Adrian until she |
became Of age.
