ran high in st. Clair township Yesterday
when the news spread abroad that the
2-years-old boy OF Mr.. and Mrs. John u.
Batty had been kidnapped during the
night. The most vigorous search the grief
burdened parents and the police could
make has so far resulted fruitlcss. Not a
trace of the baby boy, who was known far
and wide for his beauty, or the daring kid
naper has been found.
AS ii was hot Wednesday evening, Mr..
Batty and his wife sat upon the porch,
rocking the little one in the hammock,
and resting after the labors of the weari.
some day.
STOLEN FROM THE HAMMOCK.
1t was nearly midnight when the parents
entered the house to prepare to go to bed
AS the child was sleeping his mother did
NOT wish to disturb him until ready to
retire. In less than half an hour she re-
turned TO the porch to get her baby. She
nearly dropped to the floor with fear when
she saw that the little one was gone The
mother summoned her husband, and to.
sether they searched in every nook and
corner about the yard and under the porch

The child had been stolen from the ham
mock while the parents were in the house,
ana not Il Sign of him could they find.

All night long the search was kept III
by the parents, and in the morning Mr..

They saw the parents leave the porch aud
then pounced upon their prey.
