Erie Mother Appeals To Escape Prison In New Plea
An Erie mother serving six months in the Allegheny County workhouse for child birth contravention appeals to county leaders to allow serving sentence locally or on strict parole to stay near her five children. She writes she has kept them alone long years and begs to remain near them, offering to suffer any hardship rather than be parted from her kids. The request lacks county commissioners jurisdiction and was referred to the district attorney for transfer to Judge Elmer L. Evans who sentenced her.
