ALLEGES SOLDIERS
ANNOYMUGHTER
Mother Discovers, However,
When Police Come, that
Offspring is Wedded
to Warrior.
A call for the police to quell some
soldiers who were reported to be
fighting with some women turned out
to be a domestic tangle in the Elliott
household, 2020 Lake street, in which
a daughter. Margaret, played the lead
ing figure. The chief point in the un
raveling was the announcement by the
daughter to her parents that she was
married to Paul Workman, Fort Oma
ha soldier, over whom the trouble
started. i
When the police arrived on the
scene, they were sent after the daugh
ter, who was in the company of J. L.
heckcr, another soldier troin the fort.
They were procecdiitg down the street
a few blocks from the house, alter
several encounters with the girl's
sisters and father. Becker was play
ing the role of intermediary for
Workman. The police brought the
pair back to the house, and a family
session was held before Sergeant Dil
lon and the officers.
The girl leaned on the arm of
Becker while the mother explained.
The mother told the police that her
daughter had been annoyed by several
soldiers despite of repeated warning
that their attentions were unwelcome.
She accused Becker of giving the
girl letters from Workman, who she
claims is now in the guardhouse at
the fort. The mother objected stren
uously to the tone of the letters,
many of them beginning with endear
ing terms, such as "Dear Wife." Here
the xirl interposed with, "I am his
wife."
The parents and the girl's sisters
registered surprise and several kfhds
of shock. The mother told the police
that the daughter was only "15 years
old. The girl insisted that she was
17. Sergeant Dillon decided that the
whole mixup should be thrashed out
by a judge. At the parents' sugges
tion the girl and escort were taken
down to central station and booked
for disturbing the peace. The par
ents say they will seek annulment of
the marriage.
