The officers found her story to be true, and ar- rested the parties who robbed the farmer, but as the young woman who gave the information was in no po- sition to know the facts she related except through communing with “the spirits,” people began talking about her being a witch, with the result, that ap anclent statute was invoked and the girl prosecuted and sent to. jail for her pains in aiding the officers .o? the law.
