GIRL VICTIM OF I
MEN WHO LIKE
TO TIE HER UP
_
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah.—(Spec- j
ial)—In what weird web of fate has!
Arline Coldwater, lti, become en
tangled?
A grim, whimsical Nemesis has.
three times, in the dead of night, j
sought out the girl in her bed, and
two times the hunt has been success- j
ful. There followed a most terrify- j
ing experience, the fearsome opera
tions being exactly the same on both
occasions.
All Salt Lake is agog trying to j
solve the riddle of these peculiar at
tacks.
Awakened at 4 a. m.
Recently the girl was awakened at
4 in the morning to find the dark
forms of two men at her bedside.
He fore she could scream a hand clos
ed over her lips. A gag was placed
roughly between her teeth and bound
around her head. In spite of her;
struggles she was carried to a gran
ary in the rear of the Coldwater
home.
Then came the intensely fiendish
feature of the mysterious assault.
The men bound her unkles, tied her
wrists together with a rope, throwing
the loose end over a rafter. The rope
was tightened slowly. The girl was
drawn upward until her toes barely
touched the floor. The entire proceed
ing was carried out in silence. The
■ two men looked at each other, smil
ed, and disappeared.
They Returned
Four hours later the git* managed
to work the gag loose. JShe was hys
terical ami half conscious when re
leased.
This was the second visit. A few
nighta before the mysterious pair had
attempted to capture her, but she
escaped, her screams arousing the
neighborhood.
A week or so later she endured a
similar experience. Her room was
entered again at 5 in the morning.
She was awakened by the men at her
bedside. Again a hand stopped her
cries. Again the gag was put in her
mouth. Then the unscruplous assai
lants carried her t<i the granary aud
left her hanging by the wrists, her
body, covered only by a nightdress,
exposed to cold w’eather.
Police Puzzled
Hours later she once more slipped
the gag from her mouth. Her screams
attracted a neighbor. She collapsed
when she was cut down.
The police are puzzled. The nature
of the knots and the peculiar way in
which she was drawn up from the
floor preclude any possibility of the
girl having tied herself. No violence
beyond that necessary to subdue her
struggles has been offered her. Rob
bery is not the motive of the attacks.
Nothing was touched iu the house ex
cept the girl.
