After hours of trudging through slush and snow, Susan told a hotel clerk that they would spend the night in the lobby. He threatened to call the police. She called his bluff and said,” very well, we will sit here till they come and take us to the station.” With that, the clerk rented them an unheated room. The next day, after an exhausting search, Susan found some one who would shelter the mother and her child.....the woman’s family soon figured out Susan’s role in the affair and began to badger her about revealing the hiding place. They publicly said that she had “abducted a man’s child and must surrender it” They threatened to have her arrested.”
