MARION, Sept. 25.—Last May William Adams, aged thirty years, partly by threats and partly by force, induced Larisa Gabriel, ten years old, to enter a boat with him. He then rowed a half mile down the Mississinewa river, and was in the act of perpetrating a devilish crime when he was interrupted by the little girl's mother. He was tried on the charge of abduction and criminal assault, and last night the jury brought in a verdict of guilty, fixing the penalty at five years in the State's prison.
