son; VINO resides ut Charlotte and Cum

suspicion OF numbering young Peter
Dickinson, aged II years.
me TWO youngsters ran away together
Il week ago, going TO Richmond on n
Goai trnin, Young Degge returned
thermore he could give no satisfactory
explanation of Dicllinson's whereabouts.
MIR. Dickinson became seriously
alarmed for his sons safety and when
DesSe stated that he had lcGt the boy
asleep on bridge in Munchcster he pro-
cured the warrant and had the lad taken
into custody ana locked up.
YOUNG DEGGE TALKS.
The youthful prisoner was seen In his
cell at the station house by n Virginian
representative last evening lie was
iaborinE under great excitement and
was very nervous. His eyellds drooped
almost TO the point of closing, either
as result of great bodily fatigue or
perhaps 1t was the effect OF weeping.
His father, Mr.. John T.. Dcgge. had
Just left him when The Virginiun man
arrived. To the reporter the boy made
the following statement:
II last SAW Peter Dickinson on the
bridge over the Atlantic Coast Line
Wednesday night nj o'clock
we had been 10 Petersburg and went
on to Richmond "Wednesday morning.
stayed in the city until O'Clock in the
afternoon and then went over to Man

we then went under the bridge

why did YOU leave Dickinson 20

II don't know. ] never had anything
against him. | waited in Petersburg for
him all day and then came on home"
The arrest of the boy created quite n
sensation. His father is one OF the best
known citizens OF Norfolk. There is APP
porently nm entire absence of motive
which could have led 10 the crime
charged. The case is an interesting one
and It's development will be Interesting.
