AFTER MANY WEEKS
MISSING MAH AND BOY RETURN CARRIED TO SOUTH AMERICA BY FREIGHTER Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, March 9. (Received March 10, at 11 a.m.) Joy was brought overnight to the homes of Ronald White, a thirty-one-year-old Birmingham chemist, and Bernard Jones, a tbirteen-year-old Warwickshire boy, who returned safe and well after their disappearance on Boxing Day at Illfracombe. Their car was found deserted at the pier, and it was feared that they had _ perished _ in climbing the cliffs. "White explained that they were cut off by the tide while walking along the beach. They found a dinghy and tried to row to the pier, but were swept out to sea. A frieghter, bound for Buenos Aires, picked them up exhausted. Transhipment was impossible so they were carried on to South America ._ They lived by doing odd jobs ashore till they were able to work their passage home.
