Hunt for Yeggs Abandoned Near Dover Point
A statewide manhunt for Salisbury yeggs traced to a point three miles outside Dover was essentially called off by Massachusetts authorities after a futile clue from the Dover Point drawbridge tender. Special Officer Jones later tied a new lead at Barrington nine miles from Dover, but the tip was weak. Local Chief Clark suspects the suspects may still be in the area and will continue checking clues.
