Twin boys, believed to be eight or ten years old, living on the streets of Gaillimh, were apprehended today as they attempted to steal a purse belonging to the wife of the Minister of Defense. After some questioning by a judge, the pair was sent to St. Joseph's Industrial School for Boys in Leitir Fraic. There they will receive quality education in letters, numbers, as well as skilled trades so they may become well-adjusted, contributing members of society.
