LEAVES A FINE HOME TO BE
COME HOBO
LEAVES FINE HOME TO BECOME
A HOBO
Miss Mary Patterson, Who Has Been
Missing from Pittsburg, Is
Located at Waukea
sha, Wis.

PITTSBURG. Pa. Oct. S.-Pos-
sessed of a wanderlust that neither her
/ family nor alienists who have been
called in consultation are able to eX~
plain, Miss Mary Patterson, wealthy
young woman of Pittsburg, was forci-
/ bly, brought back to the home of her
mother after period of wandering
/ lasting from Thanksgiving day until
she was taken into custody in Wau-
kesha, Wis, a few days ago.
! During her nine months absence the
girl, plentifully supplied with money
/ from the estate of her father, accord
! ing to the reports from Waukesha and
other cities and towns in the middle
4 west, scorned the comforts and the
luxury of Pullman and dining cars and
chose the favored abode of every true
| hobo-the box car, well filled with
damp excelsior, and a "handout"
whenever it could be procured.
There were no home troubles to ex-
plain her wanderings. Mrs. Mary Pat
terson, her mother, is a woman OF
wealth and social position as well as
being an indulgent parent. The only
explanation the alienistS have Is that
the lure of the road called the girl
and she answered.
The estate of her father was settled
several days before Thanksgiving day
The girl was at her home Thanksgiv-
ing IlOIIlilSs puL W llNlA liz ASA4AA4iJ
board groaned with turkey and cram
berry sauce and the daughter was
called to the table there was no re-
sponse She had left for parts un-
known.
For months no trace of the girl could
be discovered, although detective
agencies were employed in the case. A
few days ago, however, her mother re-
ceived q long distance telephone call.
The voice of her daughter could be
plainly distinguished. She sent her
love to the family, but refused to give
them any information as to her where
abouts.
Inquiries at the telephone exchange
proved that the message came from
Chicago.
Then the girl appeared in Wauke-
sha, and registered at a hotel as M. e.
Graham of Clinton, Iowa. The atten-
ton of the hotel attaches was at
tracted to the young woman by her
peculiar actions, among them being
a propensity for sleeping on the floor
of her room and bringing up food from
the dining hall to eat cold.
The police were notified. Then MISS
Patterson disappeared. Search by the
police was instituted, and she was
found prowling about the Milwaukee
railroad yards seeking a convenient
box car. She was taken in custody
and imprisoned in the home of the
sheriff.
Miss Patterson was indignant and
demanded her release. Later she at
tempted to escape. Asked as to her
identity and residence, she refused to
make any statement, but during the
questioning mentioned the name OF
DR. Seip of Pittsburg.
Through him her mother was noti-
fed. Force was necessary to compel
her return to Pittsburg.
