into the cemetery.’ Why it’s an
insult to the intelligence of any 1
man to give such an account of a
courtship as that.” ’
Stebbins called Homewood "the 1
age of cads” and called on the
jury to remember the "law of
today, yesterday, and all the years
since creation—the rule that says
a seducer is punishable for his
crime.” J
Homewood wept as he was led ,
to jail. His bail was discontinued j
upon conviction. He will be sen- ■
tenced Dec. 13. At about the
same time, Miss Gibson expects
to have her baby.
' ‘ 1 him late
charge that he se-
duced Charlotte Gibson, 23-year-
old daughter of wealth, highly
educated, a young social favorite,
because it believed that in this
day and age a girl of 23 years
could be chaste, and that man, not
woman, is the aggressor in a love
, affair.
NEW CITY, N. Y., Dec. 8
(UP)—Sidney Homewood, deb-
onair 24-year-old riding master,
is in jail awaiting sentence to a
prison term because a country
jury decitied the ancient laws of
morality are unchanged in a sop-
histicated age.
The jury convicted
yesterday on a c — „
Alpine — Bids called for con-
struction of bridge across Mus-
qt iz Canyon, 12 miles north of
here on highway No. 118.
To Make Appeal
The verdict will be appealed,
Defense Attorney .Finkelstein in-
dicated today, on the ground that
it was against “the weight of the
evidence” and or. technical points
concerning the judge’s charge t<?
the juiy. <
The sheltered daughter of the
old Virginia Gibson family had
been pictuied by the defense at-
torney as unchaste, "It is ridicu-
lous ” he had said, "that a girl 23
years of age should be so chaste,
so pure, so unsophisticated.”
The attorney had repeated the
quotation:
“Earth hath no
to hatred turned,
“Hell hath no fury like a
man scorned.”
Miss Gibson, he told thi jury
of eleven married men and one
widower, had been the aggressor,
had trapped Homewood in the
hope of obtaining a promise to
marry, and when she was spurned,
her stern attorney father had
“forced his daughter to be cruci-
fied on the cross of his pride —
forced her to be dragged through
the mire and notoriety and pub-
licity of this trial.
Que»tion of Moral#
“They want to brand this ex-
pected child as the son of a con-
vict,” the defense attorney .charg-
ed in condemning
family.
“I say this case presents a
question of modern morals,” At-
torney —
“Wasn’t this girl
our
as
for a girl as intelligent, as well
read as she claims she was, to be
so unintelligent on the question
of sex ?”
Miss Gibson had testified her
parents had withheld from her
any information on sex matters.
She had testified that on March
1, Homewood, on the promise
that he would marry her, and on
the claim that she should prove
her love for him, had won her
consent to relations that contin-
ued for several months.
Prosecution Argument
“No new rule or principle
moral conditions is here
volved,” iTosecutor Stebbins told
the jury. "I am convinced
the majority of women are
the vipers, the temptresses that
you have heard described in the
op-
the
barrel”
suies.

ton goods, with m offerings
