YOUTH STOLE AUTOMOBILE
And Wan .Captured Later in Virginia
City and Near in County Jail.
From the'confining sides ox an iron-i
barred cell the story of a young?dlfe
of travel along the path that failed
to pay was told by one who, for fear
of it reaching his mother back home,
prefers, to be known as George Rod*
gore.
With straight-set eyes, that at
times were beclouded to match a
somewhat tremulous voice, the bronzed
youth of eighteen years told of his
mother and younger sister, now living
in New York, of his seven years
schooling and the home life that he
failed to reflect; of how he shipped
on a freighter bound for New Orleans
fourteen months ago.
Touching many gulf ports andv
emassing mftny experiences of life
aboard ship he finally landed at Miami
where, acording to continued storm
warnings, his crew was held up several
days, and, according to the young
prisoner's account, was Anally disbanded
just prior to the disastrous
hurricane. Obtaining >passage with a
motorist bound for Jacksonville he
reached that city and immediately
continued his journey North by means
of further lifts along the highway
until Columbia was reached with buttwo
dollars remaining in his pockets.
Kt Bethune he took possession of a
new Hudson coach and is now charged
with the theft of the car which Was
the property of Miss Stella Bethurte of
the public sphool faculty in that town.
Rodgers states that after taking the
car last Thursday morning he waited,
concealed from view, about five miles
Irons town and never traveled during
daylight hours up until the time of
his apprehension at Petersburg, Va.,
the following day.
"Nothing; thank you, sir, except if
youTl please let me have some cigarette
papers?I have some tobacco?
and, yes, sir, some magasines would
be fine?you know reading will help
pass away the time. * * * I went
wrong and for it I am willing to serve
whatever term I get in good behavior,"
and, he says, "when my time is
out I'll always go the w*y my mother,
| even now, thinks I am going."
