hidden and caught Mikesell as he
came to take it away. Five locks
were broken getting into the stand.
The boys were brought into city

leased on their own recognizance, the
parents of the Mikesell boy stating
that they were planning to move from
Richmond and take the boy with
them. Mr.. Basson recovered most of
