(Clearfield, Pa.): January 20, 1858 January 20, 1858 On the 7th, two boys, aged 11 and 15, were discovered in a freight car at Altoona. They said their mother resided in Philadelphia, was too poor to support them, and started them to the country to hunt work. While straying around West Philadelphia, they crawled into an open car, intending to ride out a short distance. Previous to starting, however, the door was closed and they found themselves prisoners, and they kept quiet until accidentally discovered at Altoona. They excited much interest, and homes were soon obtained for them. Their name is Lutz.
