The handsomest of the witnesses was Miss Avis Christenberry, a stately
brunette from Memphis, who rather liked the looks of the rich young
man's photograph used for bait and sent in $2.
"They told me he was corresponding with some one else just then," she
testified, "and I corresponded with two substitutes, but they didn't
entertain me much."
Wilson Schufelt, a real estate man, said that he had rented the
matrimonial headquarters to "Mrs. A. M. Harvey" for a mail order
house business. Mrs. Harvey got her mail under the names of Glinn and
Hill, and when the postal authorities became interested in her she
told Schufelt that her name was Jennie Scott. At her home, 214 East
Thirty-second street, she is known as Mrs. Jennie Call.
She was indicted under the name of Glinn. It was testified by E. J.
Beach, superintendent of the Twenty-second street sub-postal station,
that the matrimonial agency received from 50 to 200 letters every day.
She was arraigned before Judge Bethea and found guilty, on April 25,
1908, and was sentenced to one year in the House of Correction, and
was fined $500.
