HORACE
MARVIN
HIS BODY FOUND NEAR
DOVER, DELAWARE.
HE WAS THE BOY WHO DIS.
APPEARED Early IN THE
MONTH OF MARCH.

Dover, Del.-The body of little Ho-
race Marvin, who disappeared from
the farm of his father at Kittsham-
mock, near here, March 4, was found
Saturday afternoon in a marsh in a
state of preservation. The spot where
the body was found is half mile east
OF the farmhouse, toward the Della
vi are river. Kittshammock is between
seven and eight miles from here, and
from information brought here by a
horseman it is learned that the clothes
upon the child are the same he wore
the day he disappeared. The body was
face downward.
The marsh was frozen over the day
the boy disappeared. There is a theory
that the boy was murdered and his
Ecdy placed in the marsh, as the Ions
grass where the body was found was
burned and cleared four weeks ago.
It is said the body lay under a pile OF
grass and that the clothing showed
no evidence Of having been touched

made and it is not known whether the
child was strangled, starved, dubbed
to death or drowned.
1t is impossible to say even on the
word of those who saw the chilI's
body how long he had been dead. The
remains were in so well a preserved
state as almost to have excluded the
possibility of the boys having been
killed on March 4, the date of his dis
appearance. On the other hand, they
appeared in too advanced a stage of
decomposition for the murder to have
taken place as recently as two days
ago.
There is much to make it appear
that the boy wandered away and fell
exhausted into the pool. No marks of
violence were found on the body. The
stomach was empty, and the child may
either have been frozen or starved to
death. Detectives are perplexei at the
finding of the body near the Marvin
home and at point which they had
walked over again and again.

Sensation in Sioux City.

Sioux City, Iowa, May 6.-The find
ing of the body of Horace Marvin
probably created a greater sensation
in Sioux City than in any other place.
1t was from here that DR.. Marvin went
two weeks before his bereavement
after a continuous residence here Of
more than 20 years. He was admired
by all, and the recent death of little
Horace's mother made the disappear
ance seem more pathetic. Whether
the boys body was recently taken
back to the farm is being debated
everywhere.
