Her fathers name was Charlie Chippe-
wan, but years ago he changed his name
in order TO more easily enlist in the
United States army Her mother Is an
American, but her whereabouts Is un.

mother never taught me much OF any
thing, OF else | might not be here in this

her to accompany him to his home, she
SAYS. The soldier, who lived at Draines-
Vile. soon left her and went back TO

place Of Mrs John Hatton, near Hern'
don.

much for her. 50 when Mrs. Hatton was
not at home she bridled her horse and
rode away. She was arrested in West

When arraigned several days ago
before a Fairfax court she refused
to have a lawyer. stating that shs
was guilty OF the crime She told
Jailor Cross there was no use in
lying about the matter as she had
been taught lying would get her
nothing. She dislikes being shut in
from the open country. but contents
herself in reading over a 200 page
book of poems, all of which are Of
a patriotic nature.
The poems she has scribbled down
in the book are either her own com
position, the composition of some
soldier or the favorite selection OF
one of her soldier admirers. 1t seems
that whenever she had a soldier
sweetheart, and from the number os
poems she must have had many, she
had them write a poem for her book.
Cover Wide Field.
The poems cover a field ~ great
variety. Some OF the titles are Help
the Boy over There" At Hate That
Woman" Music From a FIne-Tooth
Comb" "The Sport Killing Men,"
Some Said 1t Was the Thun ler," "A
Splendid Thing To BE a Man." and
"Tecumseh, of the Shawnees."

tattooed BY her mother. On the wrist
is tattooed in red, white and blue an

had put on in recent years.
