“Wolf Gang” Prank: “Ghosts” Run Into Trouble In Domain
Just lately a group of very sound and rather adventurous-minded lads of the village have let themselves be carried away into the realms of romanticism to the extent of forming what they cad “The Wolf Gang” with the purpose of carrying out ad manner of mischief.
On Tuesday night a group of these boys, dressed as ghosts, were disporting themselves with the cowardly pastime of trying to frighten people in the Domain and did, in fact, scare one lady into tears. A group of Boy Scouts, having stopped and ascertained the trouble, rode on until they in turn were accosted by the “ghosts”, when they dropped their bicycles and gave chase. They caught one boy and gave him his just deserts, but the others eluded capture. However, now that the story
is out, it is to be hoped that
anyone else who meets a “ghost” ! in the Domain will clout it hard and ask questions afterwards.
