while lm was in jail ami that Moua

Tho stale declares that See imont
oil Ids defense that "wifehood and
motherhood" iih impersonated by the
two i;irls was n spiritual nml not a
physical condition, and tjint their
conning of his hook enabled the Rrid
ges girj to take this tack when she
was examined by Judgo llonore and
the attorneys for the prosecution.
The stale probably will introduce the
hook in evidence to show thnt its line
of argument is mi exnet parallel to
the tohtiinony wrung unwillingly from
the Ihidges girl.
The examination of the Uridges
(ill was concluded this morning. The
defense tried to show that she had
been better treated in See's "junior
commonwealth" than she had been at
her home but Mildred refused to make
any charges against her father.
Asked if See taught her what she
knows about sexology tho girl said,
that he had not. nml that her infor
