Dillard said Holly became very angry with him when he re- mnnctr, teH HMTh TJTnltv rr elnnninff on the face. A rather different story was told by Holly. He claimed he was on the back porch of his home helping his wife do a wash, when -Dillard came with a jug of whiskey.

and Mrs. Thomas Faretty. 216 Bell avenue. July 2. that he was prompted to steal because his small brothers had nothing to eat.

Faretty said she knew the youth and had given him some minor employment, which, likely made him familiar with the prop- on the sash. Mrs. Faretty hap- pened to be at home and both at tempts were frustrated. Hill said his father has a large 1 family, work is very scarce and he felt constrained to steal so his younger brothers might, not go hungry. Mrs.

Faretty said she would have given him food if he had asked for it. There was some disagreement as to a confession Hill had made to the police, the lad partially repudiating his original confession. Having been in jail for ten days, Judge Patterson sen tenced Hill to serve ten days to date from commitment, pay the costs and be paroled inthe custody of his father for one year.

Holtz said his father had been out of work recently and poverty forced him to seek his own sustenance and unable to procure any work, anything honestly, he took this method. It was stated the bicycle, now at City hall, is likely not worth over $5 now. Holtz was given ten months in jail, costs and allowed three months in which to pay Hartman $10 for the bicycle.
