fused to move.

asserted he offered the girl some
candy, and when she refused 1t he
tried to lead her into his room. When

slayer consented to make full con-
fession. r
Il met Janet in the morning. I
was sitting at the window at about
noon. 1 saw the child close by. She
seemed pretty and sweet. / met her
