OF JOSE MARRIAGE

Is Frank Jose. the eyoung Portuguese
sentenced by Judge Ashford last week
to three years In prison for statutory
crime, legally married?
After Jose's conviction by the jury
and while he was awaiting sentences
he married the girl he had wronged in
the hope that the court might be in
duced to mitigate the sentence The
seriousness Of his crime lay in the
fact that the girl was less than Is
wears old at the time OF its commits
sion. That was nearly year ago AMI
the girl is hardly Is years of age to-
day.
Now Halemano Keolanui, the girls
father, is appealing to Judge Whitney
to annul the marriage. declaring t
was void because she did not have
her parents consent. The territorial
law says the legal age for marriage
is Is years In the case OF q woman
and that union contracted before she
has reached that age must have the
approval Of her father and mother.
The marriage certificate, which was
shown today by Keolanui, indicates
that his daughter gave her age as 1S
years when she accompanied Jose to
the license clerks office fer the legal
permit to marry.

to those who know conditions in the
