BEWILDERED
Became A Woman And Lost
Her Bearings

After having purchased a sack of
flour at a grocery store near her
home in the west end of the city at
about 1920 o'clock, Mrs. Cruz, resid-
ing at the corner of Adams and Sug-
ar street, became bewildered and lost
her bearings entirely. She did not
know in which direction to go to find
her home and unfortunately started
west on High street. She became
hopelessly lost after time and ap-
pealed to the people residing in the
section in which she had lost her way.
Being unable to speak the English
languare clearly, she could not make
herself understood. She was almost
exhausted as result of having car
ried heavy sack of -four.
A call was sent for an officer to
help Mrs. Cruz in her trouble. Po-
liceman George responded and after
considerable trouble, finally succeed
ed in locating the Cruz home.
