 KIDNAPPED
SHE IS MINNIE DEFOREST, WHO
 WAS TAKEN FROM COUNTY HOME BY WESTPORT FAMILY.
POLICE IN THIS CITY TOLD THAT SHE WAS LAST SEEN WITH HER BROTHER AND SISTER.

From all appearances Saugatuck has been the scene of a kidnapping affair, in the fact that little Minnie DeForest who was taken from the Fairfield County Home in Westport avenue, sev- eral years ago by Mrs. Irving Bradley, of Compo street Westport, has sud- denly disappeared and no trace of her further than Bridgeport can be found
 The DeForest girl has had a good home with the Bradleys and has a1- ways seemed satisfied. Last evening a woman claiming to be her sister called and in few minutes the young girl slipped out of the house. She was seen on . trolley going to Bridgeport later, in company with a man and woman, and was crying. A search is being made for the girl. It is thought that the woman was not a sister of the DeForest girl
 Last night the local detective bureau received a telephone call from West port from a family who gave the name of Fairchild, who reported that the girl was missing. The person at the other end of the wire told Captain Ar the DeF'orest girl were her brother and sister. The detective bureau were on the lookout for the trio last night but could not locate them here except to learn that persons answering the de- scrfption had been seen at the railroad station apparently waiting for a train

GROANS OF DYING MAN REVEAL HIS
 .PITIABLE PLIGHT
AGED WIDOWER EXPIRES JUST AFTER AMBULANCE REACHES HOSPITAL

Discovered in dying condition alone in the fiat at 594 Seaview avenue, which he shared with Henry Porter, Sylvester Thompson, aged 70 years, was hurried to the Br dgeport hospi- tai in the ambulance just before 2 o'clock today. He died an hour later. He is said to have a daughter resid- ing in Long Island, but no other rela- lives. His body is now in the morr gue.
 Robert R. Bolden, who occupies the floor above, was awakened early this morning by Mrs. Bolden who was alarmed at the groans coming from below. He hurriedly dressed and en- ter ng the apartments occupied by the aged man, found him stretched in his bed, unconscious and moaning. He hurried out to the fire house nearby and telephoned for the ambulance.
 pr. Kiernan's superficial examination led him to believe the man was suf- fering from urernia. The hospital doc tors agreed when they made an ex- animation later. Thompson had not been regularly employed, and had receiv- ed city help for years. His wife died short time ago, and since then he had been living at various homes in the East End.
