BOB MURRELL RETURNS.
After Four Msnths' Hardship Reaches
Homo and Makes HIS ksthsr
HAPPY.

Robert Murrell, aged thirteen, who
for some years past has been with his
father in California, and who wa.
attending school at Pomona,
ran away from there on the Goth OF
last August, attempting to make his
wsy to this city, where his mother
resides.
His first stopping place, as far as We
can ascertain, was at Flagstaff, Ari.
IONA, where he worked in a box fac
tory for some time.
Little Bob was next heard from al
albuquerque, New Mexico. The chief
OF police at that place wrote to Mrs,
Murrell stating that the boy was there,
had some money, Was afraid that he
would fall in bad company, SD he had
taken him in charge and PLACED him
in a children's home near there.
His mother telegraphed the agent
at that place a ticket for Bot to
Ocala and after due course of time
anxiOus'y awaited his arrival but was
greatly disappointed at his not COM
ing al the time he was expected. She
never received any satisfaction from
the agent but'the money was return
ed to her.
The next heard from the wanderer
he had reached Little Rock, Ark,
and later on tidings were received
from him from Memphis, Birming-
ham, and Montgomery. No word
was heard from him until he reached
EAldOsts. He reached that place at
the time of the Georgia State Fair
and wrote his mother that he would
go from there to Lake City, but all
tidings of him were lost after that
time.
That was some time early in No
veu.ber and no more was hesrd from
him unit! he reached home Sunday in
company with man who has the
appearance of a hobo and who calls
himself DR.. Q. l.. C4thcart.
1t seems that this DR.. Csthcart took
up the idea that "a large rewsrd was
offered for the recovery OF the boy and
he has been holding him for that
purpose.
The superstition is that he thought
the longer he kept Bob, the bigger
would be the reward and he has kept
him tramping all through Georgia
ever since the fair.
Robert has been sick and has the
appearance OF having had very
rough time of it. He says the exper-
fence he has had since leaving Cali
fOrnia would fill volume.
