He and his brother stole clothes, and sent them to his sister in Boston, who sold them and returned part of the money.
Mr.Morris asked him if he would not like to get his living in an honest way, and he said he had tried to, but no one would employ him.

Mr.
Morris told him to go home and take leave of his father and get his brother and bring him to Washington street the next day.

He told him plainly that if he did not he would send a policeman after him.
The boy begged Mr.Morris not to do that, and early the next morning he appeared with his brother.

Mrs.Morris gave them a good breakfast and fitted them out with clothes, and they were sent off in the train to one of her brothers, who was a kind farmer in the country, and who had been telegraphed to that these boys were coming, and wished to be provided with situations where they would have a chance to make honest men of themselves..
