ORPHAN GIRL in VI
NEED OF A HOME
(Bartow Record.)

(Bartow Record.)
One of the most pathetic incidents
of the loneliness of young girl
without home and friends, that has
come to our notice recently, is that
of Martha May Baker, aged II years.
who languishes in Jail here with moth
ing charged against her so far as we
know other than she has no home nor
anyone to give her aid. 1t is the old,
old story of friendless girl set adrift
in an unsympathetic world, buffeted
and browbeaten and driven from pill
lar to post, until in despair she
throws herself on the mercies Of the
law and asks the citizens to help her
find place to stay.
Martha Baker is an intelligent girl,
of good appearance and is capable of
becoming member of some family
who will take her and care for her as
child and one Of the household. She
was formerly in an orphans home
and was sent to live with family;
there she was unable to get along
with the lady and was set adrift again
on the world. While tramping the
streets Of Lakeland, seeking employ
ment, she was taken into custody and
lodged in Jail till some disposition
can be made. She wants a home with
some family who will treat her IN
the right way; she. is willing and
knows how to do house work and
make herself useful, and will be
obedient and in every way try to make
herself of value to the family. Who
has home for poor friendless girl?
II you have, communicate with Mrs
John A. Logan, who is seeing after
her wants until some one can be
found who will give her permanent
place.
