Who Killed Them?

Was it Theon or "Reek" who killed the miller's boys? I don't think it states who actually kills the two boys. What was Ramsay carrying in that bag he had when they were hunting for them, clothes for the corpses so they could be passed off as Starks? I know the boys were beheaded but what was the purpose of the clothes then if Theon just showed the people their heads?

It was "Reek",

a name used by Ramsay Snow after the real Reek had died, to avoid execution

He most likely had clothes with him, though IIRC it is never specified. The corpses were skinned and then burned so they could not be recognized by those who knew the children closely.

The clothes could have been to make those searching together with Theon and "Reek" believe they actually had found the children. You also gain credibility if you return with something belonging to the people you claim to have killed, if you didn't have it with you when you left (or so it would seem).
