ACCUSES GYPS|ES
I Of KIDNAPPING HER
Girl in Rowing Camp Tells of
Capture Ten Years Ago.
Police Investigating.

HANCOCK, Nd. Aug. 9.-Sheriff
Richard Duffey' is investigating the
story told by visitors to a gypsy camp
near Hancock to the effect that two
children. a girl and boy, who are al
legged to have disappeared from their
home about ten years ago, are with
the band OF gypsies.
The story of the alleged disappear.
ance OF the children was told by the
little girl herself in whispers to the
visitors at the camp. She said she
was kidnapped WHEN very young. and
since has heard nothing of her people
or her home. She said she has trav-
eled from coast to coast with the gyp-
sizes, and several times tried to es-
cape, but has always been unsuccess-
full.
She claims she is constantly
watched by the gypsies, Her brother,
young when he was said to have been
kidnapped. believes he is a gypsy. the
girl said. The girl cannot recall
where her home was located. She
said the gypsies took her from the
front yard one summer afternoon"
The little girl and her brother have
very light complexion, in strong con-
trast to the swarthy complexions OF
the gypsies. She said she had never
been able to tell the story of her be-
ing kidnapped to sympathetic ears or
tc obtain any assistance in her ef.
forts to find her home.
