Jackson Argus – Butts County April 15, 1898
Ethel Watson, a little Negro girl 12 years of age, and daughter of Lucy Watson, 
colored, of this county, stole a bolt of dress goods, a parasol and other 
articles from the store of B. F. Moon in this city on Monday last and was 
promptly jailed.  On account of the tender age of the prisoner, she was 
released from jail Tuesday evening by a promise from her mother to give her a 
good thrashing for her wayward conduct.  The girl slipped the articles under 
her cloak while her mother was trading in the store and they were not missed 
until after her departure, but a search of the home of he negro revealed the 
stolen goods, all of which were recovered.
