The game had few rules, but a GER

who reported Sunday that che had
been attacked bya strange man
in the wods near her home, caused
police detectives to renew their
investigation Monday.
1t was freely admitted by the
police that the girls peculiar story
might be the result of hysteria
and fright.
The young girl went for a walk
Sunday, and sat down ON a log to
read a book which she was carry

She reported that someone APP
preached from behind, threw a
sheet over her head, tied her feet
together, and then fastened a
handkerchief so tightly about her
neck that she lost consciousness
When she, awoke, the person
had gone, taking her gold cavalier
and two rings from her fingers.
She dragged herself to a nearby
road, where she fell unconscious
again,a nd was found by passers-
by.

Detective Mllone learned that
the attacking person had used a
handkerchief instead of a sheet to
cover the girls head. Miss Car

cloth had effectively prevented
her from gettinga ny glimpse of
her assailant.
Shoestrings had been removed
from her shoes, and used to bind
her ankles together.
The girl is of unusually small
stature.
She was suffering from excite
ment and fright Monday, although
she had ceased to feel any physi-
cal effects of the attack, she told
officers.
Miss Carmel told the police she
had been chased last week by a
strange man as she was on her
way home from work at the Car
