Wednes- day morning of this week. About eight o'clock that morning Officer Revor received a telephone message from Sheriff Wandrack of Woodstock to be on the look-out for a boy and pony. The message was re­ ceived at the village pumping station and within a few minutes after same had been take by the local officer the pony and boy were seen coming down Green street. Officer Revor ran out to stop the lad, but instead of obeying the command the lad whipped up the pony and started for the w6st side of town. Jumping into the John Carey car, which just happened along at that par­ ticular moment, the officer, with Mr. Carey, started after the boy in hot pursuit. The lad went as far as the railroad tracks and, seeing that he was being followed, turned the animal and started down John street. Turn­ ing ill on Center street he started towards the old driving park, where he found he could get no further. Leaving the pony near the entrance to the park, the lad started off across the country, but was finally overtaken after he had reached the Hanly prop­ erty west of the -railroad tracks. He was brought back to McHenry, where he was locked up in the village bastile. Sheriff Wandrack was then notified and came to McHenry to take the lad back to Woodstock. A Plaindealer reporter questioned the boy in the jail shortly after his capture. He told of how he waited for everyone to retire on Tuesday night and how he went over to the neighbors, a Mr. Peacock, stole the pony and started for McHenry, arriv­ ing in this village, shortly after mid­ night. From here he rode to Ring- wood and it was while on his return from that place that he was seen and later apprehended by Mr. Revor. In answer as to why he had taken the pony he stated that his boss told him that he would let him go the fol­ lowing noon and sooner than wait and get fired he decided to take this means of leaving. He had no particular place that he was headed for, his only thought being to get away from, his former - employer. He also informed us that he has been at the St. Charles home since nine years of age, last year being his first experience at work on a farm. I have been riding all night," he stated and his appearance more than showed it, as he was sleepy, hungry #' ;kas recently completed one of the fin­ est jobs of painting in this section of the country.
