Albert and Frances Roster were ad-

ago. Both were in good health, though
helpless. Both were large children,
the girl 10 years and the boy only a
little her junior.
J They were taken to Lapeer IN wheel
ed chairs furnished by the city, but.
when the mother went to the insitu-

hard rocking chair writhing in agony.
The boys body was shipped here.
There was a wound on the forehead
and other marks on the face. The au-
thorities at the school explained that
the boy must have caused the wounds
by thrashing sbout in bed.
Inasmuch as the boy could not move
himself, the mother is reluctant to ac-
cept the explanation. She went to the
institution to take the girl away. Nine
years this girl lay in bed and used a
chair at home with never any result

turn from Lapeer the girl was In a
