could not give bonds for $1,000. he
had no money and he was down to
his last package of cigareta.

the boy and took him home with her.
When arrested, Durand retaliated
by accusing his foster father of
transporting liquor from Chicago to-
Crabtree farm, but later admitted the
charges were false. I'D.
