1920 North Van Buren, street, was on
trial before jury in Judge George
Whitcomb'S division of the district
court today, charged with a statutory
offense against Helen McVey, Is, 140S
North Van Buren, street.
Patterson was arrested last March

mother that Patterson had threatened
to kill them and burn their house. Mrs.
daughter, Dolly. 10. at the time of the
arrest, are said to charge Patterson
with having improper relations with
her for the last six years. Helen also
made an affidavit charging the old
man with having wronged her, officers
says, and it is upon this charge that
he is being prosecuted.
Patterson has stoutly denied the
charges. A few weeks following the
arrest, Patterson and Dolly, the Oldest
girl, were married. Whether she is
| going to testify against her aged hus-
band is a question that is perplexine
| officials. During the trial she sat by
his side in the court room. apart from
her mother and sister, who occupy the
opposite side of the table.
| This morning was taken up by the
| cross examination of Helen by J. j
Schenck, one OF Patterson's attorneys
Helen declared on direct examination
that Patterson had repeatedly asked
| her about her association with severa
boys. She finally told him she had
.just to shut him up" she asserted
| Today Schenck repeated. one at a
| time the names of probably twenty
| boys and men whom Helen admitted
| Patterson had asked her about.
| Helen denied accusations that she
lhad been with two janitors at times
twhile she was attending a North To-
peka school. She said both these
ajanitors had quit, but did not know If
they were fired because her name had
been connected with them.
