he had devoted a rich life time. But

GATOR IN RIVER
IS IDENTIFIED

Ever since Harry Hail, an en-
pioye Of the r. Il. and r. r. r.,
captured q four-foot alligator in the
Potomac River, about four miles
below Washington Monday, river
folks and scientists have been won
derlng how the animal got into
nearby waters.
The alligator weighed about as
pounds and was said to be about
seven years old. The Bureau Of
Fisheries secuted the theory that
the animal had been born or raised
IN this section Of the country.
W. NJ. jenkins, manager or the
Autometer Restaurant, No. 2, came
forward today with q possible so1u-
ton of the mystery. which would
bear out the bureaus theory.
According to Jenkins, about six
years ago his little cousin, Beverly
Esslinger. who was then living near
Glen Echo. was given a sixlEoatI-
old alligator, which her aunt had
brought here from Florida.
The alligator escaped, but was
found In q nearby creek 1t escaped
again and has not been seen since.
If still living the animal would now
be about seven years old. jenkins
believes the alligator found Monday
must be the one which escaped from
his cousin.
