It is now believed he is in the vicinity of Carbondale.

Since the appearance here of Miss Maggie Bevan, the Welsh girl evangelist, young Hood has taken a deep interest in matters religious and would often gather his school chums about him and talk to them about the welfare of their souls. This combined with hard study, is believed to have unbalanced his mind. Yesterday, for the larger part of the day, playmates and school chums of the missing boy tramped the mountains and woods around Taylor in the hope of finding some trace of him, but their efforts were futile. Nothing can induce the parents to believe that their son deliberately planned to run away from home. His interest in religion for the past few weeks has amounted almost to a mania.

He would often wander off alone in the fields and woods and pray. He seemed to prefer solituue to the companionship boys his own age, though at times he would gather them around him and talk to them on religion. D1V0RCEDTHENREWEDS RETURNED HUSBAND Special to The Truth. Towanda, Feb. 15'.
