Laid To Army Deserter
f Continued from page 1)
md called the police. All of the
(182.00 worth of stamps and
lends were found or him, except
Lhe small amount lie had disposed
of. The money he had obtained
for these was recovered with the
exception cf S4.00. which he had
spent.
When he was arrested some of
the stamp hooks found in his
possession bore the names of
Bolivia .and Winnabow residents.
The arresting officers immediately
communicated with the Sheriff's
office in Southport and Sheriff
Willets and Principal Tucker
vent to Myrtle Beach and recovered
the stolen property within
24 hours after it was taken from
the school.
Apparently he was a deserter
md had dodged around for 18
months. A letter written by his
father was found on him. The father,
-4fi years old, is a volunteer
serving in the army and he expressed
much concern on the part
of 1)0th himself and the boy's mother,
because of the fact that
their hoy had deserted.
Among the things stolen from
the Bolivia school, and which were
not recovered with the arrest of
Chapman, were five blank checks,
taken from the school check
honk These checks were numher
ed 1337, 1338, 1339, 1340 and 1341.
It is thought that Chapman may
have filled out these cheeks and
cashed them somewhere prior to
his arrest. The public is cautioned
not to cash these checks, as payment
has been stopped.
