A man by the name of Andrew Errick
son, who lives in this city, is experienc
ing considerable trouble in getting track
of his boy, a youth of 18 years, who
went away lasffaay to pick strawber
ries. From all that can be learned, the
boy went to Portland and fell into the
hands of one of those sailor boarding
houses, and they probably enticed him,
by false representation, to go to sea.
He is now many miles away from home,
and the father is anxiously endeavoring
to procure his return. The boy left a
note at the boarding-house, which the
father didn't get for two weeks after
wards, because the authorities, did ail
they could to delay its delivery. This is
not the first time that boys have been
inveighled. Into running away from
home tor a bard life at sea, and this
kind of business ought to be checked.
Not Doomed for life.
