had attempted to rescue in Colon,
who told her she had been enticed
from One Hundred and Twenty-

woman. Miss Johnson said she
was attacked in her efforts to get
SL the girl out of a den and later re
ceived word that the girl had been
beaten to death.
Miss Johnson has also done res

stated that she rescued one girl who
had been shipped as a white slave
from Toronto to Chicago, then to
New York, then to Paris, and then
to Egypt, She said that drinking
