the Pennsylvania penitentiary Mon
day morning for the kidnapping Of VII.
lie Whitla. In addition the woman
was fined $4,000. These are the max.

Boyle was convicted OF kidnapping
Friday and she WAS convicted of com.
plicity Saturday. There is little like.
lihood that either will take an ap.
peal, but will rather begin their sen
fences right away.

Boyle when their sentences were pro.
nounced

that her brother, who paid for her
defense, has decided to furnish no
more funds for appeal. He has re.
turned to his home in Chicago Ac-
cording to law an appeal can be made
any time within six months, and II Is
still possible that the woman will

TO the effect of her words on her lis

was her 23rd birthday, and she was
allowed many privileges. Jimmy sent
her a message aud some money with
which she sent out and bought box
