Nolan Not Yet Free

Dr. D. W. Nblan, the veterinary snrgeon, who was jailed in Detroit for assaultiDg a young girl is evidently, from his owu admismoDS and froro tbe statements of people who bave previooely known him, considerable of a sconndrel. Iu 1886 he married Miss Cnlnan in Meriden, Conn., and sobsequently deserted her. Tbe yonng woman wbo waa living witb him heie he says is not his wife. Sbe is the daughter of wealtby Roman Oatbolic parents in the east and ber gilrhood was spent in a convent. Sbe became fascinated witb NoJan who ït is said seduoed her. She then left her parents and boine to follow him. After tbcy came west the yonngwoman leamed that the man with whom sbe was living was already a married man. He promised to get a divoxoe from nis wife and marry her. They then set-' tled down to live together nntil the divorce should be seoured, whn sbe believed tbey were to be married. She has writteu her family to take her back to tbem and anxiousJy awaits their anuwer to her letter. At first it was thought that no charge wonld be pieferred against Nolan and that he would be ireed last Dight. At that tiine he was asked by a newspaper reporter vshat he wonld do when releaaeri. "I will go back to AnD Arbor and resume my practice, " he feaid. "I haven't done anytbing I aui ashamed of, that I can thirik of. I don't know why I shonld not go baok." If Nolan's acts are not those of whioh a man should be ashamed of, what is tbere tbat should shame a man? Bnt Nolan's bopes of freedom were doomed to be blasted. He had jnst been called into office of Itendent of Pohce Martin, and that [gentleman was abont to give biru a I good lectnriug, as tbe only means oí pnnishing him that was left, when bxe was interrnpted by a telegram from the brothr-in-law of the so-calJed Mre. Nolan, stating that be wonld be in Detroit today. Said Sopt. Martin : "Her father apd tüother, I onderstand, are uow dead and the estáte of tbe parents bas been in statn quo while an effort was made to find this girl so tbat the settletnent migbt be made. Every effort to find her had been fntile and advertisernents had been published all over theoonntry. Her brother-in-law is a lawyer, and I hope to be able to have a complaint made against Nolan for sednction." Supt. MartiD refosed to divalge the real name of the young woman or her brother-in-law. He would wait, he said, and see if a oomplaiut could be raade. If uot, there wonld be no use making tbe young woman's name known pnblicly.
