Two Runaway Nuns Caught and
Carried Back TO Jail.

WG6Sk
Facts surrounding the mystery were disclosed
today by the Mother Superior at the hospital,
physician and two women who we're the train
on which the nuns fed. They said that a strong
friendship between the two nuns caused them tO
run away
The runaways were Sister Regina 38 years old,
who had been at the hospital for more than ten
years, and Sister Virginia, rs years old, who had
been in Belleville only six months During their
short acquaintance the two nuns became strongly
attached to each other, and planned to run away
from the hospital when they learned that the
Mother Superior preparing to transfer Sister
Virginia to the Mother House of the order at
Springfield ILL.,
Removing their nuns garb, they took train
for Kansas City, where they obtained employment
in a hospital. They were traced to that place,
and were persuaded to return to the order and
accept transfers to Wisconsin-Sister Regina
being sent to Chippewa Falls, and Sister Virginia
to Eau Claire, where they can each other
often.
Some fair questions, suggested by the above
news item:
(D If converts are places where women
V0lu1ltGa1Iy Jail themselves, aOhy are they
limited like escaped CONFLICTS, when they
leave?
(2) If these converts are not places Of
Involuntary seroitude, why are the women
and girls who leave chased by kilograms,
detectives and policemen?
(3) If the converts are not jails, why are
they built like jails?
(4 If the women confined in the con-
vents are not prisoners Of the priests, why do
the priests run them down, and 'persuade"
them to go back?
(5) If the converts have no guilty secrets,
why do the Roman priests so violently object
to State inspection?
CO. Ought any civilized people tolerate
these pirate, p15est-hept jai7s?
O. Why do the priests work so hard to-
get Irish Catholics on the police force Of
every city, and on the bench of the Police
Courts?
(8) Is it because the Romish priests need
these Romish policemen to serve as blood
hounds in catching the miserable run-a-aways
from the priestly slave-pens?
Read again that news item about the tec0
poor loonaen 1ohO broke jail.
They escaped, why?
If they were free americans what need was
there for q secret escape?
They stole away from the convent, as
though they were criminals serving term.
WHY?
They were chased and caught, like crimi-
nails WHY?
They were persuaded" to 90 back to jail.
now?
The lying story published to the world is
that the two women ran away because they
were not allowed to see each other often
enough.
Yet the loving jailers who carry them back
to captivity, say that the two prisoners, will
hereafter be confined in seperate contents,
'where they can see each other often"
What barefaced Ie!
Those women will never see each other
again
Each will be subjected to every humiliation
and penance, the least of which will be soil
