“BROKEN BLOSSOMS”
WOMAN’S DOWNFALL ASSOCIATED WITH COLOURED MEN A trembling, nervous wreck, Meryl Julian, aged 25, a woman who still has a shadow of youthful beauty, stood in the dock at the Police Court to-day. She pleaded guilty to charges of drunkenness and being idle and disorderly, but she denied having stolen a rug valued at £l. A constable said that he saw the accused last night in a drunken condition carrying a rug over her arm. He found later that this had been stolen from a hotel. Senior-Sergeant Edwards said that the girl had been on three occasions convicted for being idle and disorderly. Witness had known her for some time and had seen her in a Chinaman’s shop, in Myer’s Park with an Indian, and frequently in the company of undesirable men and women. Accused said that the rug had been given to her by a “gentleman friend.” She was remanded to appear for sentence to-morrow.
