WILLIMANTic GIRL
FOLLOWED CIRCUS MAN
Sent Back Home BY Nausatuck Police
Only 16, infatuated With aCutey,"
Musician.


The Naugatuck correspondent of the
Waterbury Republican writes One
of the saddest cases that has come to
the attention of the local authorities
in some time was that of Mary Forak-
er of Willimantic who was brought to
the local police headquarters Tuesday
afternoon by Chief Schmidt charged
with being fugitive from home =
The girl was found at Linden park
where the SaWtelle circus was exhib-
iting Tuesday.
The girl who lives with her step
mother in Willimantic met one of the
musicians of the circus band Sunday
when the circus was in her home town
and Immediately fell in love with the
man. She is but 16 years of age, has
had no experience in. the world and
was of a romantic turn of mind so -she
was easily led by the musician, al
though she knew nothing about the
man beyond the fact that his name
was '.Cutey." she left her home and
came to Naugatuck with him
Would Not Betray Lover.
She was noticed by Chief Schmidt
Tuesday morning and after question
ing the girl he brought her to head
quarters and communicated with her
relatives. Her brother arrived in
town Tuesday night and brought her
Back home with him, although she was
reluctant about going.
Tuesday afternoon the manager of
the circus called at police headquar-
ters and asked the girl to accompany
the chief of police and himself to the
show grounds and point out 'sCutey.''
This she refused absolutely to do~ She
said she loved him and wanted to
Join the circus and be with him. 1t
was learned Tuesday night that one
of the musicians was missing so that
it is probable that "Cutey'' as soon as
he heard that the girl had been arrest
ed left town.
The local police beyond returning
the girl to her brother have done
nothing about the affair, and Prose-
cutting Attorney Klein stated Tuesday
might that no complaint had been
made to him. Whether the girls par
