The depravity of your esse is deep, and to' show leniency would be Justice mis placed. Tou have the wrong view of life. The only thing that can be done with people like you is for society to chase them out Of all criminals, a man who deals in the honor of a woman la the most despicable. I am sorry I cannot send you to prison for a longer term, but the statute only allows one year and a fine." Adcox said he induced Elisabeth Har low to go to the resort at The Dalles, but that he wanted to reform. Deputy District Attorney Collier told the court Adcox had been In trouble many times before, and had boasted that he had not worked for four years. The deputy "'" had collected evidence showing the man's trafficking in girls. Two sisters of Adcox were in the court room, and showed considerable emotion when the 'sentence was pronounced.
