dark as the prospects were of locating

visit Brunswick. And here we are"
1t was soon after the woman's arriv-
al that she learned that her father
and her boy had engaged in busin ass
on Bay street. many years ago. The
father, e. S. Proctor, adopted the
name of his grandson for the firm
name, E. p Hafner Old residents,
sought out by the distracted mother,
however, failed to give her any in
formation, none recalling the store
conducted by Proctor and the boy.
On visiting the court house and
searching through the files of Ordi-
nary Edwin Darts office, the woman
found that marriage license had
been issued to e. S. Proctor and Miss
Laney May, December 16, 1892. The
certificate of marriage was signed by
Judge j. e. Lambright That was the
only clew that the woman has been
able to get. Proctor, his wife and the
boy, evidently leaving Brunswick soon
after the marriage.
The woman, little, if any nearer
to clue leading to the wherea bouts
of her boy, is still searching. With
mothers hope and prayers she is
pushing on and on, with an unfaltering
faith and that irrepressible expecta-
ton to which only a mothers heart
can cling-the expectation that her
boy will yet be restored to her heart
before it is too late.

The arrival in Brunswick of a VIC
man and her two sons, brought t.
| light yesterday one of those storie:
that smacks more of fiction than fact
a story that is replete with anguish
with longing, with disappointment
the story of fathers perfidy, of flu
tile search for thirty years for her
then, five-year old blue-eyed boy, the
idol of her heart. The years have
come and gone, nut not the hearless
father and grandfather, nor the blue.
eyed boy
But with a mothers undying devo-
ton she has searched the country
from end to end, hoping against hope
that some tidings may yet come to
her of her boys whereabouts. The
woman, with her other two stalwart
sons standing beside her, told the
strange story, with choking voice, yes

journey by automobile, from their far

a short trip to Plaineville, O., our

nor my father l wired to learn the
cause of their delay, but the answer

father. | waited for their return, but
they never came back to me. Illness
