She said: "Mr. Cohen treated me like a father and I compelled him to take mo away because I thought my grandfather did not want me. I haven't had any friends since mother died. Father was away all the time, and I didn't want to go home because It was a strange place. I told Mr. Cohen I would kill myself if he didn't take me." The girl told of traveling under the name of King, and said they went aa father and daughter. The girl had H75 and Cohen $15. Cohen says he took the girl because he could not withstand her pleadings, and threats of suicide. The girl, fear ing that her father will prosecute Cohen, is making many excuses for him.
