statute of limitations.
A. M. Gallagher VS.. w. ]. Kellhier,

May Henry, her two children and J..

er, of Seattle, are in the custody this
afternoon Of deputy sheriff. They
were arrested while speeding down
Mission street in an automobile. Mrs.
Henry, who is the divorced wife OF
Albert ]. Henry, a Seattle bank
clerk, broke down and wept while be-
ing taken to police headquarters.
She refused to make a statement.
While Mrs. Henry refused to dis
cuss the events leading up to the kid
naping of her two children from the
st. Streuver apartments, where they
had been left in the care of Miss
Pearl Wyckoff, pending their disposi-
tion by the court, she voiced her
opinion of San Francisco police in
no uncertain terms.
"They are certainly a hot bunch
Of sleuths," she said. "They couldn't
follow a lighted lantern up dark
alley, or else they would have found
us long ago. for we walked up Mar
ket street every day."
Kelley appeared to regard his ar
rest as a joke.
"My hair is white" he said, "but
not with years. Nor grew it white
in single night, as mems have
grown from sudden fears"
Investigation showed that the
couple and the two children were
forced to undergo many thrilling ex-
periences following the kidnapping.

barked in a fisherman's launch at
