Saturday's Oregonian says: "Till
man Hiett Friday admitud thut he
stole a rowboat from E L. Withort, of
Linnton, in order to reuuh his brothers
at Winlock. He was bound over in
$100 bail by Justice Seton for appear
ance before the grand jury.
"The boy, who is 14 years old, savs
that his father is A. B. Hiett, of Mon
mouth, an old soldier, who carries a
bullet in his arm. He spent a night
in jail at Oregon City and arrived in
Portland without a cent. He started
down the river, intending to go to his
brothers, Edward and Al Hiett, who
work in a sawmill at Winlock. He
admits that on reaching Linnton he
took the boat and rowed to Kalama
where he was arrested and brought
back. He told the story without any
apparent conception that he had com
mitted a crime and smiled good
naturedly at the questions put to him.
" 'How would you like to work at
the rockpile' asked the Justice.
" 'Oh, I don't know.' replied the lad,
'I wouldn't mind being put in jail if
it wouldn't be longer than a year.'
"The boy was well dressed and neat
in appearance, and "unless he is an
adept, gave every one the impression
that he is not a criminal.
"District Attorney Manning will
write to the address of his two
brothers, Edward and Al Hiett, at
Winlock, and see if they will send for
him. If they will, he will be sent to
them."
