that his 13-year-old girl, having re-
fused to stay at home from a carousal
Of neighbors was thrashed by him

house with her, started for tie road,
screaming murder at the top Of her
voice, finally falling into fl. He
further states he carried the woman
into the mousse and summoned medi-
cal aid and that certain Of his neigh
