Judge McDonaId's Family Affairs
Aired in Spokane Courts.
From the Spokesman. Review of last
Sunday we take this:
upon the order OF Judge Hinkle Of
the juvenile department of the superior
court Fay Mcdonald, daughter of
Judge Mcdonald, former superior Judge
of Whitman county, was yesterday taken
from her parents and placed in the Gus
tOdy of the matron of the juvenile court.
Final disposition of the case was post
pOned for a week.
"The Mcdonald girl was brought into
court some 10 days ago on the COM
plant of the probation officer that she
had been mingling with improper associ
ates and that she had contracted lOath-
some disease. When the case was first
heard Judge Hinkle permitted the girl to
remain with her parents pending further
investigation, but at yesterdays hear
ing it developed that her parents had
permitted her to return to the custody
of sister who is one of the associates
complained OF and on this showing Judge
Hinkle directed that she be given over to
the custody of the juvenile matron."
