After an trip they reached Beaver, where they camped on the morning of August 1. By 8 oclock the next night they reached Oasis, and further complications appeared. Young Webster happened to. meet another girl friend, Margaret Pederson, aged 17, and after a brief discussion she also wanted to be taken on the trip to Salt Lake City.

The auto party had now reached Oasis, and after leaving in the morn-lin- g encountered a little difficulty with the machine, and were forced to return to Delta for repairs. They managed to leave before the Delta police officers received Holman's wire, and started presumably for Salt Lake. Upon receipt of the telegram at Oasis word was sent to the Provo officers that they were headed! this way, and a watch was kept for the girls and the boys in the delapidated Ford car. On the night of August 2 they made their entrance into the city and were immediately arrested. That the liking of the girls for the young men had increased by bounds was indicated when the Peterson girl told officers that they had made plans after leaving Oasis to stay at the home of Mrs. Brayton in Salt Lake, and then proceed to California. All of which shows that it makes a difference with whom you are traveling when contemplating a ' trip to California.
