BENDER, FULMER, MITCHELL, WALK, WILKINSON "The Kansas City Times" (Missouri) Tuesday, April 30, 1912 THREE STRANDED MAIDENS. Three girls who arrived in Kansas City Sunday expecting to be met by relatives were disappointed and two of them were taken yesterday afternoon to the Girls' Hotel, Eighteenth and Jefferson streets, and the third, Carrie BENDER, is in care of Mrs. Minnie WALK, police matron at headquarters. Miss BENDER is 17 years old and decidedly good looking. She arrived Sunday afternoon from Bloomington, Ill. The aunt, Mrs. Harry FULMER, was not there. "My uncle, John BENDER, with whom I have been living at Bloomington, sent a telegram to Aunt Mary telling her I was coming," Miss BENDER said. "Of course I know now that she did not receive the message for we did not have her street address." The two girls taken to the Girls' Hotel are sisters, Helen and Virginia MITCHELL, 17 and 19 years old. They were in route to their home ten miles from Topeka, Kas., after a 6-weeks' visit with an aunt at Louisiana, Mo. They said a cousin, Harvey WILKINSON, was to have met them here and accompanied the girls to Topeka. The police are trying to locate the absent relatives. ================================================= (I have no connection with these people but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) =================================================
