ing streams and ponds for trace OF the
little 2-yesr-old son Of Mr.. and Mrs Hugh
NARROW. who disappeared from his home
while his parents were absent. The
widest Of stories are afloat. One is that
the child was kidnapped. Some weight is
given to this possible clue for the chiids
disappearance. as a stranger was seen
driving alone by the NARROW farm with
his horse on the run. At another place
the same horse was seen being driven at
a rapid pace.
Other stories are that the child has
wandered into some of the sloughs,
bayous. creeks or ponds and been
drowned, while still another is that the
child has been killed by a reckless auto
driver and his body hidden.
Up to late this afternoon not a trace
Of the child had been found. and no sign
had been discovered that might point to
what became of him. Every foot OF
ground within a mile and one-half Of the
house has been beaten over, but the
search has developed nothing. The par
