time and told his father that he had
returned to stay. He was dispatched
to Green Camp with load of wheat. |
He sold the grain, collected the
money, amounting to about S76, and
skipped the community. The faith

hausted and he appeared at the local
police headquarters and swore out
an affidavit charging him with en-
bezzlement.

father. After deliberate considera-
ton, the aged gentleman accepted
the sons promises, withdrew the af-
hdavit, and set the young man free.
