United Press Staff Correspondent
/ WOODS HOLE, Mass, May 6.
State police suspended operations
in their wide search for Peggy Nc
Maths kidnapers today and con-
centrated on solving the mystery of
the 10 year old girls adventure by
questioning those who brought her
back and those who helped raise
the $4,000 ransom.
From a group of six men-in-
GLIDING Peggy's father, Neil Cook
McMath, authorities apparently
hoped to secure information which
would unravel the bizarre circum-
stances surrounding the schoolgirls
abduction and return.
Blue-eyed Peggy herself, des-
cribed by investigators as brick"
after she had recounted a straight
forward story of what happened to
her during three days in captivity,
was safe with her mother at the
22-room McMath home at Har-
wich, 35 miles away.
1t was in SO foot cabin cruiser
anchored scarcely half a mile from
the home that coast guards late
yesterday found Peggy, enjoying a
repast of fruit and milk, with her
father; William Lee, his business
associate, and others.
Suspension of the police search
was considered significant in view
of the widely held theory that
those who returned Peggy know
more about the case than they have
told
McMath said he promised the
kidnapers he would keep Peggy at
sea for 48 hours to give the fugi-
tives time to escape with their new
riches. The fact that he was found
at sea by the coast guards defeated
this plan, as the 48 hour period
does not expire until 3 a. m. Sum-
day.
The father and daughter were
taken from the cruiser aboard a
coast guard speedboat over Nc
Maths protest.
Peggy was allowed to go home
with her mother after telling a gra-
phic story of being held prisoner in
two separate hideaways, threatened
with chloroforming by her original
captor, of subsequently being cared
for by kindly man and of being
reunited with her father during
an automobile trip.
HARWICH, Mass, May g. UP)-
The kidnaperS of Peggy McMath
refused $4,000 of the preferred ram
som money and accepted only $780,
0000, the United Preass learened
from a high official source here to-
day.
Previously it had been reported
successfully that the ransom paid
was $4,000 and then $4,000.
The official said he had no idea
why the $4,000 was rejected. He
expressed the belief that the bank
had the serial numbers of the bills
that comprised the ransom.
The same official said that he
was satisfied that the kidnapping
was not an inside job"
Peggy told investigators one of
her two prisons was a dilapidated
shack where, blindfolded, she was
laid on the floor. BY drawing up
her knees, she said, she was able
to insert her fingers under the edge
of the blindfold, and observe there
was no furniture III the shack.
Peggy told of being able to see
streaks of daylight through cracks
in the wall of the shack.
Investigators said a garage owned
by Cyril Buck in West Harwich
tailed almost precisely with the
description. One corner of the ga
rage is weatherbeaten, police said,
and the seams are spread, allowing
light to filter in.
A chief detective, asked if Ken
meth Buck had q criminal record,
said:
Check"
He wouldn't amplify it.
