Recalls Other Instances.

The disappearance of the Britain
child at the Woodward Tollgate re-
calls the disappearance of BESSIE Mil
Ter at Summerville a few years ago,
under almost identical circumstances.
The child wandered away from home
one Sunday evening and was never
seen again, although every log and
tree was turned over for miles
around.
The home was situated in the edge
of the timber near Summervllle and
the child was accustomed to playing
in the paths leading into the forest,
and on this evening was not missed
until almost dark, when the frantic
parents realized that she was lost.
Not a solitary trace of her was ever
found, although 200 neighbors scare L.
ed the woods for weeks.
