gro lad of nine, started on an er-rand
for his mother. Cutting
across lots "to Merrlck road he
skirted the stream east of Main
street, which was a rushing torrent
because of the rain. On the way,
he told the police, he was accosted
by a white lad, "who suggested
they try to get across the stream.
Frank refused, but ^ the other lad
entered the water and soon was
being carried down stream by the
t/orrent and trying to swim. Fi-nally
he was loi*t to sight, Frank

told his story and the owner im-mediately
informed the police.
