Report That Gained Currency Incor-

a ClcW.
Dover, Del, March 29.-The report
that Horace Marvin, Jr., had been
found in the woods near the home of
his father at kits Hammock, upon
investigation by the detectives. was
found to be incorrect. Tonight word
was received here saying that the boy
had been found and hat the detectives
who have been working on the case for
almost a month started for the Mar
vim home. When they arrived they
found that the rumor vas baseless.
The report probably gained circula-
ti0n from the fact hat the Logan
school house. neal the Marvin home,
was broken into last night by some
unknown persons. This is the school
at which Miss Lucy Killen, the young
woman who was held up on Tuesday
night by two men whom she came
upon suddenly, is the teacher. Pinned
TO the blackboard in the school room
was a note which bore a skull and
cross bones, and read: Beware you
DID,"
When Miss KilIen came upon the
two men they were talking about the
kidnapping of the Marvin child. They
drew revolvers and threatened to kill
the girl if she breathed to any persons
the conversation she had overheard.
The detectives tonight got a state
ment from Miss Killen and they pro-
fess to believe that the two strangers
knew something about the missing
child if they were not the actual kid
