Ran Away from Albany.

From the Welcome:
A letter received by the Welcome from
Isaac Tharud, of Albany, concerning the
recent elopement OF Alice Day, a 15-year-
old girl of that city, with young man
who once clerked in drug store in Port
land. says: "Alice Day did not run
away with young Allison. She simply
accompanied him and the girl who did
elope with him to Salem returning home
from that point"
But our correspondent fails to pursue
the matter to the conclusion. Alice Da.
. did run away from home and is now IL
Portland. She met young man namet
FRANKS while in salem with Allison
she and Franks agreed to go to Portland
where the latter has work and where b
agreed to find employment for the girl.
Miss Days parents died several year
ago. She was their only child.
ueiehboring family adopted her and sui
seouentIy moved into the vicinity OF a
bany. The girl has caused her fosteI
parents good deal Of trouble during th
nast two years. The likelihood is th'
thew win not persue her:
Mr.. Tharud had probably not heard
his last esca pade when he wrote the ie
ter above alluded to.
