Hickory, Sept. 19—No trace has been found of George Sherrill, 13-year-old son of J.H. Sherrill, who was thought to have left town this week in company with Brooks Pruitt and another youth, all about the same age. The last time the boy was seen was on Tuesday morning about 7 o’clock when he went to his father for a dollar to buy a school book. After getting the money from his father, the boy when to a brother and secured another dollar from him on the plea of buying a book, saying that his father did not have the money. The two dollars is all the money the lad is thought to have had. He was wearing white duck trousers and white canvass shoes when he disappeared.
