Greensboro, May 29—After capias for her arrest had been returned not executed, this for the second time, it is learned that Maude Jackson, alias Mamie Wilson, alias Maude Wilcie, wanted on charges of defrauding gullible males, matrimonially inclined, is probably in Danville, Va., and it is expected that she will be brought here to explain to a federal court and jury why she promised to marry four but failed to marry even one.
The woman, under indictment in Federal District court here on charge of using the mails to defraud, is said to have advertised in magazines carrying matrimonial ads, and when she received replies would inform her correspondents that if they would pay her way to a certain place, she would marry them.
M. Morris, of Center, O.; James de Palma of New York City; J.W. Dodson of Winfield, Ala.; and Grover C. Montgomery of Kayce, Wyo., are four named in the documents in the office of the clerk of court as having been victimized by the woman. She would receive money for railroad fare from these trusting males, and that would be the last of it, is the allegation. She is said to have operated from Thomasville, Ga., and railroad fare was a sizeable sum in some cases, especially from there to Wyoming.
Capias was issued for her, and she could not be found, and capias returned not executed. Again it was issued, and while she was not placed under arrest, a deputy marshal thinking that she is in Danville, Va. Her case is scheduled for the June term in United States District Court here, beginning the first Monday.
