POLICE DOG IS ON
TRAIL OF WOMAN
Police Hope to Find Body Of
Dudley, Mass, Resident

Dudley, Mass, July 12.-R-A
new trail which police believe may
lead to the discovery of the body of
Mrs. Henry G. Willis. missing Dud-
ley mother Of nine children, was
found by the state and local police
with the aid of d trained police dog
early this morning after an all night
search in the woods near her home.
The trail picked up from the door
found open on the night of the dis
appearance led directly to the rear
OF the house and was followed sew
eral miles until dense fog and heavy
dew made it impossible to continue
the search until the weather clears.
This trail will be picked up as
quickly as possible by State Detec-
tive Edward J. Mccarthy, Chief
George Reynolds of the Dudley po-
100 searchers, including boy scouts.
The dog owned by a Putnam,
Conn.,, man has a wide reputation
for trailing missing people and the
police believe it may lead them TO
solution Of the present mystery.
A slipper believed to have been
used by the missing woman shortly
before she left her home was used
as scent. The dog at once turned
the corner of the house and led the
several miles, finally losing the
scent in swamp in the rear of the
house. The trail later was picked up
and continued encircling nearly
back of the house and again toward
the swamp, then to farm house
near Charlton town line when the
dog was taken from the trail be-
cause of dense fog.
The farm where the trail ended
has been unoccupied six months I'M
til ten days ago, and the action of
the dog in circling the place makes
the police think the woman stopped
there. The house is Of brick and is
surrounded by many outbuildings.
Footprints in the roadway near
the Charlton highway led police to
place much confidence in the trail
located by the dog, as the shoes
worn by he woman fit these prints
which led from the highway
through field leading to the farm.
The telephone call to the Jacobs
farm the night of the disappear
ance has been explained, and the
broken street lights were found to
have been caused by July Fourth
celebrators.
The police have learned that the
woman left the house fully attired |
in her Sunday clothes. A search of |

History of the Church.

The Holy Sepulchre church was
consecrated in 1886 A. D., early &C.
clesiastical records show.
These early ecclesiastical authori-
ties declare that during the excava-
tons in the 1eign of Constantine,
the sacred tomb Of the Savior was
discovered.
Persian vandals in the seventh
century destroyed the buildings
which were rebuilt only to meet the
same fate again 800 years later at
the hands OF the Moslems.
Alterations and additions were
made to the church during the sue
ceeding 600 years, after it had been
partially restored. and in 1919 most
Of the shrine was reconstructed.
In 1903 the Holy Sepulchre was
wrought into a charred ruin when
fire levelled the church buildings.
With the financial aid of Greeks
and Armenians, new edifice was
built in 1910.
The dilapidated dome was restor-
cd by architects Of various nation
alities in 1868, pursuant to an agree
ment made with the porte by
France and Russia.

The escape Of the inhabitants of

fact that the shock was not severe
enough to bring down the compare
lively solid buildings of the city, al
though cracked walls and ruined in
teriors are numerous. People throng-
ed the streets, fearing to return to
their homes.
Outside the capital the loss of life
undoubtedly was greater owing to
the flimsy construction OF many
dwellings which collapsed upon in
