HE dogs had come back some
time during the night. between
midnight and dawn. Martha
set food out for them, looking
with a cold. sinking fear at their wet,
mud-coated launches and torn paws.
When Jim Borne and her husband.
Hans. had started for Marysburg last
night after supper. she had tried to
call the dogs back. But Hans had
patted Dixie and said, Leave 'em
come. Martha"
Jim had glanced at Martha as she
raised her shoulders in a brief, help
less gesture. Jim hadn't counted on
the dogs being on that walk. They
we're big animals. terriers of uncertain
breed. Hans said they were worth a
man apiece when it came to rat-catch-
ing in the orchard. Ever since he had
lifted them out of the river one after
noon-two half-grown dogs tied in
burlap-and brought them dripping
into the kitchen. they had worshipped
him.
That was Hans all over - giving
value to animals. Thinking of his ever
lasting five-acre orchard and forgetting
about her for days at a time He forgot
how lonely it was in the grey, clap

to the Coast. 'Some day we'll 60 to
California, kid" he had said years
back, and in his heart believed it.
1t was always ''some day" with him.
While, jim Borne - well, there was
a man who would give woman some
consideration. He could take her away,
and wanted to. She had held him of.
But the last few months with Hans
and his mild, absent minded ways; his
childish pleasure when MIR. Wilmot,
the big farmer. had told him to take
in all the firewood he needed: Hans

B0LAND LOSES
HIS APPEAL

John Martin Boland, found
guilty Of conspiracy to murder
Francis "Slom" Lyddane, of Rock
vile, Md, must serve his prison
sentence, even though a jury ac-
quilted Mrs. Anne Lyddane of
charges of hiring him to kill her
husband.
Boland elected to be tried by the
court rather than a jury, was found
guilty and sentenced to three years
and nine months in the peniten-
tiary.
At the first trial Of Mrs. Lyddane
a deadlocked jury resulted. At the
second trial, at Hagerstown, she
was acquitted, and following that
Boland made an effort to gain his
freedom.
The Maryland Parole Board
ruled yesterday, however, that he
must serve his sentence.
