Father Unsuccessfully Tries
to Get Boy Who Ran
Away from Home.

John Winerman, a resident OF
Star City, came here Sunday and
tried. without success, to regain
custody of George Chancellor, boy
II years old, whom he had adopted
and who ran away from home a day
or two before Winerman said the
boy stole SIS Just before leaving.
The boy was found and taken to
police headquarters, where. between
sobs, he declared that he had earned
$1.1O a day in a glass factory for a
considerable time and that Winer-
man had always taken every cent OF
the money. The boy said the money
he took was but part Of what he had
earned. He said that Winerman has
'brutally i'll treated him, too. and on
this account he decided to run away
and find another home.
las Winerman had not sworn out
warrant for the boy, the police
took no action in the case, but ad,
vised the Star City man to let the
lad so his way. Chancellor later OBJ
tanned employment at the Hazel
Atlas glass factory and arranged to
stay In clarksburg.
