LOST BOYS

Two boys, Frank and Harry Watson, have been missing from their home, in Ballard, since last Sunday. Nothing has been heard of them since.

A ferryman at Nace's ferry reported to the police that he had rented his skiff to two boys, the largest being about 17 and the other 14. They told him that they were going out hunting, and that they would return in a day or so.

One of them had a double barreled shotgun, and the other a single barreled shotgun. The parents of the two boys were aware that they were going hunting, but did not know that they would be gone for more than a day. A search for them is being made by the police and parents.
