It might prove embarrassing for owner to claim false teeth
Northwest Georgia’s second set of unclaimed false teeth are awaiting the owner.
Considerable interest developed recently when Publisher M.L. Fleetwood of The Cartersville News-Tribune reported that a set of upper teeth, found when waters of Lake Allatoona receded for the winter, has been turned over to the newspaper in an effort to locate the owner.
The second set of teeth has turned up in Floyd County. Ira C. England, who lives on Callier Springs Road, Rome Rte. 4, said today that he, too, has a set of teeth which he would be glad to return to the owner – if he’ll only come forward.
But it might be embarrassing for the owner to claim them.
It seems that a prowler entered Mr. England’s backyard a few nights ago and occupants of a garage apartment sounded an alarm when his presence was discovered. Harold Morris, one of the occupants of the apartment, came running out, armed with a gun, and the prowler tripped over a tub and fell, apparently while attempting to flee. He made good his escape but the occupant of another apartment, Mrs. Pat Moore, later discovered a set of false teeth near the tub, apparently dropped by the prowler.
Mr. England said he felt certain the prowler needs the teeth – and is anxious for him to have them. The problem is, how can the man claim the teeth – without admitting he was prowling around an area in which he had no business?
