Show A SEDUCER SLAIN SLAW it in is a singular fact and one that hag has caused much serious comment that one of the most f fearful earful and diabolical abo lical of crimes crimes is allowed by law to go g unpunished tho the criminal in the case we have in mind is permitted not only to go where he will but he is received into and caressed by the highest circles of fashionable society in america and europe whilo while his victim becomes an outcast is 13 ostracized from res portability and is treated with the utmost scorn acorn contempt and insult we refer now to seduction and the seducer there is not in our opinion a more heinous crime unless it bo be the shedding of innocent blood than that of deliberately robbing a young woman of her virtue under a pledge of pretended affection and promise of marriage the law provide provides no adequate punishment for such a viola female chastity nearly every other offense odense against society is made a crime that the civil code will handle from the ponderous thief who steals his millions to th the miserable culprit who purloins not to exceed twenty five cents england and america Ameri caare are alike in this matter A black hearted villain may enter the family circle insinuate himself in the good graces of the household generally and some one of its members in particular that one he be selects for his vio vie tim who never suspects his treachery until her ruin is effected and she is deserted by her seducer yet the law gives the victim no adequate protection or compensation nevertheless retribution occasionally overtakes the wretch and he be pays the penalty of his crime with his life he realizes that an avenger is on his track and that the wages of his sin is death albort A short time person named McCaffrey under a premise promise of marriage seduced a young woman weman named maria spearman subsequently his victim shot and killed him her brother was implicated in avenging his sisters outrage they were both arrested tried and acquitted the toronto globe speak ing of the result of the trial says at the time of the occurrence of ortho the goulbourne tragedy the globe remarked that no jury would find maria spearman milty of murder in shooting her se I acer the result has justified our prediction both the bet betrayed rayd e woman and her brother have been acquitted although it is certain that me caffrey came to his death at the hands of one or tho the other of them under circumstances which in III any ordinary case would raise the legal presumption of malice the verdict we are told was received with prolonged applause from the crowd in the court room once again tho the popular instinct of natural right and justice had asserted itself as a against tb the a letter of tho tile law and declared that so ion long as seduction is a permitted ted crime a homicide in revenge of seduction is no murder the case is full of instruction for our legislators they have refused to mako make the betrayal a criminal offense but human nature in the last analysis is stronger than the lawand when ni hen the victim for whose wrone wrong there is no legal redress revenges her ber own grievance r I e Y either in pe person me n or at the ga hands n ds of a relative she becomes a heroine rather than a criminal the anomaly by which the despoiler of virtue goes free while lethe ahe man who steals a few trumpery dollars worth of property is consigned to prison leads by a natural sequence to the other anomaly by which homicide is condoned and an society applauds the manslayer man inan flayer elayer although we are no advocates of lynch law nor believe in persons taking the law in their own hands and meting out condign punishment for heinous of offenses T anses yet we do not hesitate to say we are in full accord with the sentiments expressed by the globe on the subject zt and we are satisfied we will be endorsed by bythe the pure tb the just ejust and the upright p people to i throughout the land the detroit alieh mich advertiser anthoine and Hoine journal has the following comments on this matter with w which ich awo rc arcin arc in sympathy the only truo justice must bo be look cd for at the hand of the parent whose fair daughter is cruelly wronged or from some som other eother rightful protector of young woman hoods purity while vh ie such a course cannot bo be said to undo the tile wrong it ia is the natural impulse of parental or brotherly chivalry and no true roan man or woman woma rican can rightfully condemn the avenger of a i daughters daug liters or bisters

reflected by intelli gent Jurics in cases that have bave ca come be fore ore them where the seducers lifo liro hag has in a measure atoned for ills crime and swift vengeance has fallen from the hand of his victim or his ills victims natural protector the verdicts of juries as rendered in in euch such cases it would seem should act as scathing rebukes to tho the lawmakers of the country and lead to legislation th that atwill will be a legal pro of unsuspecting female con against the betrayer of innocence no cence otherwise we ve may expect to see their natural protectors continue to take tho the law into their own handstand wreak summary vengeance canco on the seducer of the daughter or sister As our michigan contemporary has observed all honorable men and women the world over hold these
