with Joseph Brophy, Twin Elm, Carleton

September 22 1902

Age 17, good home, having heard that this boy had left his place. I made a personal search for him, during my visit to the neighbourhood, but was unsuccessful in locating him. Kirby does not appear to have settled for any length of time in a place. The Societys Agent will advise the Department when he locates him
