COSTS MONEY TO CALL A LADY A LIAR

 

            On Monday of this week, Dr. Charles A Lothrop, Surgeon of the Wisconsin Veterans’ Home, pleaded guilty in Justice Scott’s court to calling Mrs. Hutchinson a @#@#@ liar and paid a fine of $25.00 and costs of prosecution.

            Mrs. Hutchinson’s mother is an inmate of the Hospital at the Home.  According to rule no visitor is permitted to enter the Hospital except on Tuesdays and Fridays.  Mrs. Hutchinson, who had come from Kansas to see her ninety-six year old mother, went to the Hospital last Sunday, but was driven away and abused by Dr. Lothrop.

            Mrs. Hutchinson is a woman of refinement and wife of a government official.  She will take her mother away from the Home.
