MUST PAY JUDGMENT.
Judge Knowles Refuses to Discharge
Miles City Man as Bankrupt.

Miles City Man as Bankrupt.
Judge Hiram Knowles Of the United
States court, Tuesday morning in Hell
ena dismissed the application Of Ed
ward r. Naples of Miles City, for a
discharge as a bankrupt. The sched-
ule of assets and liabilities gives the
only liability as a judgment for 49,
1915 80 in favor of Anna Olson, who
was awarded damages by the district
court for seduction.
From this liability the applicant
sought to be released. The statute
regulating bankruptcy proceedings ex-
empts claims for personal injury, from
the last list of debts from which liza
bility may be discharged by the court.
The question brought before the
court was whether seduction came
under the head of personal injury.
Judge Knowles, in refusing to dis
charge Naples from his liability on
this Judgment, expresses himself in
no uncertain terms, he says:
CAT common law a woman could
not maintain an action for seduction
in her own name. The action had to
be maintained by her parents or some
one standing in their place, or some
one entitled to her services.
"When a woman brings an action in
her own name for seduction, is the
foundation of the same a personal in
jury? There can be no doubt but it
is, under the statute law of Montana,
under which the Judgment was OBJ
tanned.
"a woman suing for her own seduc-
ton should be entitled to the same
rule in assessing her damages as is
awarded her parents under the law,
that permitted them to recover i'll such
case.
"The injuries for which damages
were awarded in the above case when
applied to the person seduced are GER
tainly personal injuries. Wounded
feelings, loss of hope in the future,
mental anguish in the disgrace, loss
of social standing and position, morti-
fi%caCion, humiliation, and a sense of
dishonor, are to be considered in
weighing the damage to the father.
Much more should they be weighed
in considering the damage to the in
jured woman.
Seduction is a criminal offense
under the statute law in Montana.
It, therefore, cannot be said that there
a be any legal excuse for such an
injury. When a a with blandish-
ments and promises that are never
fulfilled, seduces an unmarried
woman, knowing we'll the conse-
quences of his act, that she will lose
her standing in society; that her flu
ture will be blighted; that she will be
Stunned by her own sex, and lose the
respect of the opposite sex, it ought to
be held in law that his injury to her
is malicious.
"The counsel for the bankrupt have
cited quite a number OF opinions to
the effect it is no ground for an objec-
ton to the final discharge of a bank.
rupt that he has scheduled as his liza
bility a Judgment against him from
which the decree of this court could
not discharge him.
"That is not the issue presented to
the court in this case. There are no
objections to any application the bank
rupt has made for discharge; hence
all the cases cited by counsel for the
bankrupt are not in point
