An article in the 25 Jun 1909 edition of the Little Falls Herald:

Mary Peterson, the fifteen year-old daughter of Mrs. Sophia Peterson of the West side was brought before Justice Gerritz’s court yesterday afternoon on the complaint of her mother who asked that she be committed to the Red Wing school for the incorrigibles as she was unable to do anything with the girl. The justice recommended that the girl be sent and, if Judge Taylor approves, committment papers will probably be received here today.

In the 1910 census, she is probably the Mary Peterson, 15, an inmate at the Minnesota State Training School in Red Wing. Her nativity is shown as born in Minnesota to a father born in Norway and a mother born in Sweden.

An article in the 3 May 1912 edition of the Little Falls Herald:

Mary Peterson, a daughter of Mrs. Sophia Peterson of the West side, who only eight months ago had been paroled from the Girls’ Home at Sauk Centre, was caught masquerading as a boy in Minneapolis the latter part of the week and detained. She had purchased some boys’ clothing at the Val. E. Kasparek Clothing store, ostensibly for her husband whom she said was in Canada but in reality to masquerade as a young man and travel.

The girl had gone to Minneapolis and there purchased her ticket for Chicago and sent her trunk ahead of her when her peculiar actions in men’s clothing and imperfect disguise was noticed by a detective who placed her under arrest. Upon being taken to the matron at the police station she owned up to her sex and stated that never more would she go masquerading in boys’ clothes as the trousers were too hard to keep up. They were slipping down on her and she was smoking a cigarette when taken into custody.

She has been returned to the Girls’ Home at Sauk Cente.
