Postoffice Inspectors A. E. Germer and Frank Sheron worked up the case
against the woman and discovered that the same literature was used by
this woman as was used by Marion Grey, convicted for the misuse of the
mails in operating an affinity matching business at Elgin.
There were some changes, however, in the method. This is shown in the
literature sent out by this woman. Her literature explains to the
affinities that the business is absolutely honest and above board, and
must be kept so. Under "special reduced rates," she drew in hundreds
of women clients, many of whom sent in their pictures.

Mrs. Scott operated also at 2208 Wabash avenue, where she had a room
for receiving mail. She was known not only as Mrs. Scott, but as E. L.
Glinn, Mrs. Jennie Call, Mrs. A. M. Harvey and Mrs. E. L. Glinn. She
lived on Thirty-second street, with her young daughter.
