Martin was lodged In the Milton Jail
and the manner of his escape makes
it certain that he had plenty of help.
He went to his home afterwards, se
cured a horse and drove away.
The case against Martin was an
aggravated one. From the story told
by the girl, she was induced to go
to Martin's home to stay all night
with his daughter. Her mother con
sented but when she arrived there,
the daughter was gone. Martin made
overtures to her and. it is said, at
tacked her. She broke away and
running out upon the road leaped in
to a passing buggy In which two wo
men and a baby were riding. Martin
followed and tried to drag the girl
out The woman assisted her and a
tug of war ensued. Martin finally
pulled the girl, one of the women
and the baby on to the road, separ
ated the girl from the woman and
hurried her away. Reports are that
he offered her no further violence,
but sought to pacify her.
The women in the buggy reported
the mutter to the officers and the giTl
filed the information. The girl lives
in the Ferndale neighborhood.
