aged 10 and IA years, respectively, spent
Thursday night in the lookup at Borden
town, having been turned over to Mayor
Gilbert by the aunt who claimed they
were incorrigible. The aunt, Mrs. Andrew
Hamilton, said she did not want the boys
at her home any longer and did not care

place the boys in any institution, but in
stead handed them over to City Marshal
Jobes, with instructions to try and find
them temporary boarding place.

living, but his whereabouts are unknown.
