came she hurried home.
When the discovery was made the
little girl went to the factory where
her mother is employed and said.

teen years in the State prison at

In imposing sentence the court said:
THE crime of which you have been
convicted is growing In this country
and much of the judges time is be
ing taken up with these cases. Little
seems to be known about them by the
general public. as the newspapers al
most always refer to them at 'statu-
tory offenses.' but this seems to me To
be a demonstration of false modesty,
and / think hat it would be wise TO
have the fact Of this increase known.
Your crime 10 81 terrible one, and
any ordinary father and mother would
much prefer to have their daughter
laid away forever than to have her live
branded with the awful stigma which
you have put upon our young victim.
Under these circumstances the court
feels constrained to impose upon you
the utmost penalty which II lies IN his
power to name"
