Misplaced Confidence!

A Physician Charged With Seduction Under the Promise of Marriage.

The Old, Old Story: “She Loved Well but not Wisely.”

The Dayton News of Jan. 29th, has the following relation to the “Southerland scandal: “Seldom is our town thrown into such an excitement as it was last Wednesday over the news that Dr. G.W. Southerland, a physician of Waitsburg, had been arrested by Sheriff Mustard, the night before, and brought here for examination on a charge of seduction under the promise of marriage. From the evidence brought forth at the examination before Justice Ostrander on Wednesday, it appears that Southerland sought and obtained the affections of a young, innocent and respectable girl; that he was a constant and

Welcome Visitor

At the house of her parents, where it was generally understood that the couple were betrothed; that under these circumstances he induced her, by repeated assurances of love and affection, and a promise to marry her immediately in case harm should result, to yield up to him that priceless boon which is dearer to a maiden than ought else – her honour; that after several months, upon ascertaining that she was en ciente [sic], he discontinued his visits, and basely deserted her, leaving the unfortunate and confiding maiden to battle alone in her sorrow; that she, poor girl, indulging in the vain hope that he who so perfidiously

Betrayed Her,

Would return and keep good his promise, studiously denied her condition until the last moments, when she despairingly threw her arms around her mother’s neck and confessed all. Even after the birth of the infant, the family would have received the betrayer if he would consent to marry his victim, but it is said that he declined, and preferred that the law should take its course. Justice Ostrander placed the prisoner under bonds in the sum of $2500 to await the action of the Grand Jury. On account of the eminent respectability [sic] of the family, and the

Universal Esteem

In which the unfortunate young lady is held, we are constrained to withhold her name from the public. It is not the province of newspapers to judge a man before a jury or court of justice has pronounced him guilty, but we must say that a man who will cooly [sic] ingratiate himself into a household under the guise of respectability [sic] and win the confidence and love of one of the dear ones there; take from a mother the affections of a daughter who is dearer than life, and then pluck the priceless jewel and ruthlessly cast it from him is

Too Base

To be recognized by a dog. Such a thing is lower than the vilest reptile that crawls, and is a curse upon any community. As we remarked before, we have no disposition to judge the accused until he is found guilty, but if he is convicted, we regard the penalty prescribed by law as a burlesque, and regret that it is not more severe.”

Seraphic Southland.

After a Long and Tedious Trial He is Found Guilty – Prejudice against the Defendant.

The case of the Territory vs. Dr. G.W. Southerland for seduction, came on for trial on Wednesday in the District court at Dayton before Judge Wingard. Miss Dora M. Long the prosecutrix testified that she first met the defendant on June 12th 1879- that he frequently visited her home during the following summer, and on November 23d proposed marriage which proposal she accepted. The defendant continued his visits as usual until April 25th 1880, on which day he took her out buggy riding – and during the ride, she acceded [sic] to his demands to have an illicit connection – he still declaiming his love for her and assuring her of his constancy – he then accompanied her ruin in the buggy – the act being repeated the following week—the consequence of which connection being the birth of a child to her on the 21st of January 1881. In September of 1880, he discontinued his visits. Dr. Kennedy offered medical testimony.

Mrs. Long corroborated her daughter’s testimony in several important particulars – notably that her daughter informed her at the time of her engagement also that on the evening before the child was born, she confessed that Dr. Southerland was the cause of her disgrace. Several other witnesses were called to testify to her previous chastity and good character.

For the defence, Dr. Southerland affirmed that he first met the young lady as stated by her—on June 12th 1878 – visited her house as a friend – took her buggy riding ruling several times – took her riding on April 25 but never at any time had a connection with her – never made her any promise of marriage or requested her to be his wife. That the prosecutrix always acted like a perfect lady while in his company.

Mr. W.W. Smith testified that he had known Dr. Southerland since he was 6 years old --that he belonged to a respectable family and had always borne a high character as a man of honour and integrity. Dr. Mineer was called as an expert to give medical testimony which will not bear publishing. Many of the best citizens of Waitsburg testified to their acquaintanceship with the defendant and to his good character. Mr. Sturdevant first addressed the jury for the prosecution and was followed by Mr. Crowley who made an able address upon the facts of the case. Mr. Brents followed also for the doctor and in a talk of over an hour made a powerful argument. Mr. T.J. Anders closed for the prosecution and his speech with its vigour, earnestness, sound logic, and appeal to the sympathy of the jury brought tears to the eyes of many in the room. The jury was out about an hour and then returned a verdict of guilty as charged in the indictment.

Mr. Crowley immediately filed a motion for a new trial upon which motion arguments were heard this morning. The case has excited widespread interest by reason of the high standing of the parties. Many people have reflected very severely upon the holding of the trial in Dayton by reason of great feeling of prejudice against Dr. Southerland.
