Floating Hat Gives Clew TO
Searchers for Miss Butter

lily Proctor, of Vermont
No known Suicide Motive
Had Laid Out Clothes. TO
Wear Next Day, Suggest
ing Murder Possibility

PROCTOR, VT, May THE body Of
Miss Marion Butterworth, secretary
who vanished last Tuesday night after
laying out the clothes she would wear
the next day, was found tonight in an
abandoned, water-flled stone quarry
two miles south of this village.
A hat floating on the water in the
quarry found by searchers who had
gone over the countryside carefully for
miles in their efforts to find the woman
or to learn her fate attracted atten-
tion to the pool. Although the place
is more than two miles from the spot
where Miss Butterworth was last seen
the searchers learned that the hat be-
longed to her and was believed to be
the one she was wearing on Tuesday
Divers were sent for, as the water in
the quarry is more than 100 feet deep
and the finding of the body resulted
No Known Suicide Motive
No explanation Of the mystery could
be found tonight. Whether it was
suicide or murder, how the young
woman came to be so far from town and
what motives might have prompted hel
to drown herself are still unsolvee
questions.
When the disappearance of Miss But
terworth was reported virtually every
person in Proctor and farmers fol
miles around joined in the search
Schools closed their doors to let the
children aid. Boy Scouts and other
organizations made up hunting parties
and business men shut up shop to take
part.
Had Bunch of Letters
Miss Butterworth was in the village
when last seen, with a bunch of letters
in her hand, which apparently she was
going to mail. The fact that she had
laid out her clothes for the succeeding
day was pointed to as doing away with
the possibility of suicide. None of hcl
friends or intimates could suggest a
reason for her disappearance and death
Miss Butterworth was graduate oj
Boston University and an orphan. She
was employed as secretary to Miss
Emily D. Proctor, daughter of former
Senator Redfield Proctor. Miss Proctor
is said to be the richest woman in Ver
mont.
