Prosecutor Forrest B Poling announced Lawrence Carroll 30 after questioning described how he killed Dale Janes 13 in a fish fight and buried the schoolboy on a hillside cave. Carroll and Gordon Blake 35 were in custody after a posse found the body Sunday a leg protruding from rocks near Old Moatsville. Janes who had just graduated eighth grade had been missing since May 27. Carroll said he met Janes at the church and took him to a hill to steal wine and an argument followed with Janes calling him a liar. Carroll said he struck him causing a head injury, tried to revive him at a spring, failed, then carried the body to a rocky place and left it. State police questioned Carroll and Blake and prepared transcribed statements for signing.
