LOOK FOR THIRD
PERSON IN the
BRADSHAW CASE

st. Johnsbury. VT. July lA-0pin-
ion that q third person may have dis
posed Of the body Of Alice Bradshaw
was expressed tonight by county ON
cials who have been investigating the
disappearance of the eight year old
crippled daughter Of John Bradshaw.
Unsuccessful searches Of the various
places to which the authorities have
been directed by Miss Eta Hicks and
Mrs. Alvin Remission, who, II Is al
legged. have confessed to killing the
child, were continued today. At the
conclusion of the quest the county Of
ficials stated that in their opinion the
women did not know where the body
was hidden and that there was a pos
sibility that some one else may have
had a hand in the affair.
Since the two women were locked up
last Friday they are alleged to have
told conflicting stories and tonight
Sheriff Worthen said that one of the
prisoners Mrs Remission. had even
changed the spelling Of her name to
Mrs. Alvah Kenerson.
The disappearance of the Bradshaw
child has developed so many pulling
circumstances that States Attorney,
Campbell intimated that Attorney Gen..
eral Brown might be called in.
