LAD CHARGED CRUEL TREATMENT TO MOTHER

12-year Old Martinsburg Boy Picked Up Here —
Cared For by Humane Society.
   Leaving his home in Martinsburg and coming all the way to Frederick because he was treated cruelly by his mother, Julian Corbin, a twelve-year-old boy, was picked up by Chief of Police Bruchey last Friday and was returned to West Virginia authorities yesterday.  When he reached home, he was placed in charge of an agent of a Humane Society.
   The boy arrived in Brunswick on Thursday afternoon and slept over night there under a lumber pile.  The next morning he came into Frederick and made friends with Christopher Woerner, who notified the Chief of Police of the younster's (sic) case.  That night the boy was taken to jail and the pathetic story of his experience at home was told to Sheriff Roderick.  On his arm, Julian displayed a large stab-wound which he said was inflicted by a pen-knife by his mother.  He did not want to return home, for he declared that his mother had left her husband and was living with another man.
   The sheriff searched the lad and on him were found a pistol, a flash-light, a box of cartridges and twenty-nine dollars.

5b.  Anon.  Friday, 17 Mar 1916.  "Hearing Tommorow." The News (Frederick, MD). Vol. XXXIX, No. 130, p. 3 (online at Ancestry.com):
Hearing Tomorrow
   Julian Corbin, the Martinsburg boy who told a pitiful tale to Sheriff Roderick, will be given a hearing in the West Virginia city Saturday morning at ten o'clock.  It is likely that he will be sent to a reform school.  The Martinsburg authorities misunderstood that Sheriff Roderick desired to care for the boy, but the Sheriff said this morning he had no such intentions.
