GIRL WHO POSED AS A BOY. A story of how a girl is alleged not only to have masqueraded as a boy, but also to have become “ engaged” to another girl, has been revealed in a suit that has been brought by the real girl to recover damages against her deceiver. The plaintiff is a waitress named Mary Holdenawetz. The fiancee called himself Jack Brown. Their romance began last year at Monticello, a summer country resort, 60 miles from New York. Mary had obtained employment at a small hotel where Jack was handy man. Walks in the moonlight followed, Mary told the judge. Eventually they became engaged on the understanding that there would be a wedding as soon as Jack had saved enough, money. Some months ago, continued Mary, her lover’s letters became more and more infrequent, and finally .stopped. Having obtained the address of Jack’s parents, she wrote asking for news of him. They replied that they had no son. Investigations which follow'd, said Mary, revealed the facts that her lover was a girl. Photographs of Jack show her ns a handsome, clean sh ivm young man with a broad, intellectual forehead. He explained having no hair on the chin, sa'd Mary, bv declaring that ho used a pat -nt preparation which took hair out by the roots and rendered shaving unnecessary.
