member all the' cars they had stolen,
or what had become of them. Geor
gia officers are still working on the
dues the North Carol inn inspectors
took to Atlanta with Mull.
The cliancp remark a stranger
overheard on the street of Sylva, the
county scat of Jackson, provided the
clue that led to the arrest and con
? ? ? &
rcssion of Mull. This stranger re
marked to somebody that the body

for two years in the weeds- along a
creek several miles out from town,

sists of three arc as follows: Prin
