to be searched. She naturally objected and

the baggage.
Mrs. Boyesen demanded a lawyer and
man was brought i'm, whom she afterward
learned. she says. was only a grocer
clerk The hotel man had prepared a paper
which he insisted that she sign. She re-
fused. It was an agreement by which she
promised not to prosecute If no stolen ar
ticles were found in her trunk and the
matter was kept quiet. The alleged lawyer
advised her TO sign the document. and so
under duress, she affixed her name to the
paper. The alleged lawyer charged her
SO for his advice.
After the ordeal of searching the trunks
she became very sick. but was given no
attention. being compelled TO repack her
trunks after everything had been scattered
around the room. Two hours after the
search the servants in the hotel were talk
ing about the affair. and short time
thereafter boys on the street were crying
papers containing an account of the case.
She then appealed 10 her Laporte friends
for aid and this was promptly given. Mrs
