| Garfield Park Hospital |
On September 8, 1923, 16-year-old Magdeline "Madge" Bowman died at Chicago's Garfield Park Hospital from an abortion performed there that day.
It's actually likely, given errors in the Homicide in Chicago Interactive Database, that the abortion was perpetrated elsewhere and Madge was taken to Garfield Park Hospital.
According to Illinois death records, Madge was a Chicago native, the daughter of Charles C. and May Kowald Bowman.
Midwife Kate Sauer, age 60, and a 20-year-old man named Walter Page were arrested on October 5 based on Madge's dying declaration, but Sauer's case didn't go to court until March of 1925.
The Homicide in Chicago Database says that Seuer was acquitted. I don't see an outcome for Walter Page.

Veteran pro-life investigator Kevin Sherlock asks people of good will to help him have Planned Parenthood prosecuted for profiteering from the rapes and incests of underage girls many thousands of times each year.
Sherlock has pulled the police records of hundreds of cities and has pulled the child protective services records of multiple states to prove Planned Parenthood staffers are violating mandated reporting laws designed to protect girl victims. But there is more to be done. Sherlock will make sure more and more evidence gets to federal and state prosecutors who care about protecting girls from abusers and profiteers.
Thank you for doing what you can to help girls and fight sexual predators and rape profiteers.
