father, who was also arrested, furnished bond. Both are charged with having contributed to the child-wife's delinquency. . Prosecutor Reller today talked with Hersley's young wife at the Home for Friendless Women, where tiie is being held pending an investigation. It i3 highly probable that she will be sent to a state institution later. The prosecuting attorney has given orders that no one talk to the girl. Sits in Office. Sitting in the office at the Home with Mrs. Aurelia Thomas, matron, the little girl-wife whiles away her time. "No I don't love him," she said, speaking of her husband. "I don't know what love means." Mrs. Thomas says that she believes the girl does not realize what she has done or that she realized it at the time. Mrs. Thomas says that the matter has the appearance that the girl was forced into the marriage. "She is nothing but a child and has childish ways," said the matron. "Mr. Allen has not attempted to see the girl again."
