HAMMONTON, N. j., Oct. 15.-It is
week to-day since smiling Billy Dam
scy, the prize baby, went out for a
romp with his fathers fox terrier.
Jackie. Mrs. Hercules Dansey, jr., the
mother of the thirty y-months- old boy.
says 1t was not fifteen minutes later
when Jackie reappeared and desul-
tory search for the youngster was in
stltuted.
Since then hundreds have joined in
the hunt, but not sign Of Billy has
been found. Reports of ill-visaged
men sighted at dusk with boy in
their custody still persist and give
added life to the theory that Billy
Dansey was kidnapped. The more con-
servativc neighbors of the Danseys,
howevcr-persons who have been born
and brought up near the swamp lands
believe the child slipped into ome
bottomless slough in the cranberry
bogs and never will be heard of again.
Parents Frustrated by Grief
Illness has compelled the boys father
to give up the hunt. Mrs. Dansey is
in little better plight and is near de-
spair.

loved him too much," she said
