Committed A Fiendish Assault

COMMITTED A FIENDISH ASSAULT

Charles Hahn, a 16-year-old boy, who was some time ago released from the state reform school, is accused of a serious crime against a little boy, the son of a University student. The fiendish assault alleged to have been made by Hahn is of sufficient nature to give him a long term in the penitentiary, but as the father of the little fellow who was assaulted does not wish to allow the child to appear on the witness stand against Hahn, the affair will not probably be brought into the courts.

Prosecuting Attorney John Duffy. who has the case in charge, says that he is now making the necessary arrangements to have Hahn returned to the reformatory.

"I believe he is a moral pervert," said the prosecutor, "and if it were not that his victim's father objects to having his boy appear against Hahn in court I would at once take measures to have him severely punished for his villainy."
