TWO BOYS WANDERING
FAR AWAY FROM HOME

Two white boys were taken up
here Saturday by the sheriff and his
deputies because they seemed to be
too young to be wandering about
over the country without protection.
The officers were notified early in the
morning that two boys slept the night
before just outside the city limits,
having only crocus sacks for cover
ing. The officers went out to see
about them, and found them about
half way between Newberry and
Prosperity, walking along the road.
AS the officers got near them in their
car, the boys seeming quite exhaust
ed, asked for ride. The officers
told them to get in; that they had
come for them, and would take them
to Newberry. The eyes of the boys
filled with tears; not from fear or
regret, but because it meant that
their wandcrings were over, and they
would be sent back home. They
were evidently tired of their csca-
pades. "
The boys, who seem to be about 16
years Of. age, gave their names as
Claire Bigsby and Kcancth Hcascll
of Royal Oak, Mich, a suburb of
Detroit, They said they came out Of
Detroit about ten days ago with a
man who was bringing a car south
