Three youths plead guilty in chicken theft case
Warren Anderson admitted guilt and received an indeterminate sentence in Adams County Court to serve at least nine months but up to three years in the Eastern penitentiary. Robert Webber pleaded guilty but was placed on probation for one year. Thomas McAdams refused to plead and will be tried at the November term. The trio was found in the alley behind the Presbyterian church and later on the Beck residence porch while allegedly attempting to steal a box of velvet. Charles H. Wilson arrested them and they were bound over after a hearing before Squire Hill.
