been wandering hither and thither.
This morning he was brought TO this

ship, who found him tramping the
country roads. He turned Carroll over
to the authorities. Carroll is quite an
old man and is sadly demented. His
mind has been a deplorable condition
for some time and this undoubtedly the
cause of his leaving home. He seems
to remember things distinctly which oc-
