a salesman for New York music con-

His wife died when the boy was but
a few days old and the grandmother
adopted him. She became greatly at
care and devotion Of a mother.
It appears that Mrs. Ludwig feared
the child would be taken from her and
never permitted him out Of her sight.
Friday Turp visited the Ludwig
home and said he would like to take
Bobby" away for little trip.
Turp said that he was going to at.
tend the international Bible Students
Convention in Philadelphia, held last
Saturday and Sunday, and would leave
Bobby with friends in Camden. Mrs.
Ludwig did not like the idea Of the boy
being left alone and said she would
accompany them.
Before going to the convention, how.
ever, he went to see Mrs. 'Schiff and
left the boy with her. Members of the
Ludwig family were somewhat puzzled
a. to why he visited Mrs. Schiff, as
she has very small apartments at tho
Camden address, the remainder Of the
house being occupied BY another fam
lily. As there was not sufficient room
for all three to remain with Mrs. Schif,
Turp left his mother in law and son
there and remained at the home Of a
brother, who, It Is said, lives in North
Philadelphia.
When the convention was over he re.
turned to the Camden address, and all
three left on Monday afternoon.
