DEVOID OF MORAL SENSE.
He came back to this county. stayed
with friends and was seen by the county
officers. but as they had no papers hOf
his arrest. he went unmoested to Rus

Lewis had quite a knack for making
friends and outside of his propensity Tor
fixing papers was regarded as a very
nice young man.
Some of the people here who knew
him well think him insane or at least
devoid of a proper moral sense.
