...desperate note to "Mr. Judge" was scrawled by Untamed, who knew no other word for the law. Last week, riding in a police car, the children clutched one another in terror-though Conqueror soon asked the cop for a turn at the wheel. At a movie, Free could not believe his eyes; Untamed burst into tears when she saw children at play in a park.
