.EV|CTED WOMEN
HELD AT HOSPITAL
Sisters DiSpoSsessed of
Homes by Legal Process
Placed Under Observation.

Living in the realm Of their obsessions,
yet comfortable, cheerful and appar-
emily happy, Mrs. Anna Morgan John
son and Mrs. Margaret Morgan Millsaps
submitted willingly to continued OBJ
servation in Gallinger Hospital today
while SolicitouS friends endeavored to
set their affairs Alright.
The two sisters, long familiar figures
in Columbia Heights were evicted from
their home at 1872 Harvard street
Wednesday because payment on a
mortgage was not forthcoming At the
suggestion Of their friend, Rev. George
F. Dudley, rector of st. Stephens and
the Incarnation Church, where they
are members, they were taken to the
hospital.
The period of observation suggested
by DR.. Dudley will continue for several
days. 1t was said today, however. that
the observation thus far has tended to
confirm opinions voiced by their neigh
bors In recent years that the sisters are
not in their right minds"

authorities have found this to be evil
dent in the case Of Mrs. johnson and
Mrs. MillSapS. Mrs. johnson is the
stronger. Her religious views, and a
firm belief that she is heir to S125. O0O,-
600, have been argued with such in
sistence that the retiring Mrs. Millsaps
has come to share them, although
pasSively.
Friends of the couple understand that
they are destitute, although DR.. Dudley
thinks that Mrs. MillSapS has in her
possession a check for $4,000 given her
two years ago for her equity in a house
her divorced husband partly owned The
check has not been cashed and DR.
Dudley hopes to prevail on the women
to waive their objections to the sale and
cash the check.
Future Action Undecided.
Once the hospital concludes its ex-
animation. the sisters will be committed
TO the charge of the Board of Welfare
unless their care is otherwise provided
