parting of the ways over the lnvestlga-

refused to aid him.
In a statement Delaney said:
Il have tried since last Monday to
get some information from the family.
So far they have refused to cooperate.
one member of the family, Ed O'Con-
nell and he refused me any informa-
ton"
Dan O'Connells brief comment when
he was informed of Delaney's state
ment was:
"Of course. we will not cooperate
with the authorities.
The 24-year- old National Guard off,
GERS uncles and his father. John j., ST.,
have indicated they could not assist the
officials because the kidnapers warned
the boy would be killed If they aided in
the attempted apprehension OF the alb
ductors.
Delaney said he would seek to hold a
conference with the O'ConnellS tomor-
row and would ask for all the evidence
they hold, including four notes from
the kidnapers.
1t became definitely known today that
the O'Connells have had no dealings
with the kidnapers other than the brief
telephone messages of week ago today
and the letters demanding lists of nego-
tiators. Two of the letters were signed
by the young man.

Rain Is Too Late
To Test Legend of
St. Swithin's Day
Shower Starts Falling Just
Twenty Minutes After
Midnight.

The rain which began to fall early
this morning was just 20 minutes. too
late to doom the District to the 40 wet
days which, according to the legend,
follows a rainy st. Swithin's day.
Although the prediction was for rain
during the early evening, the shower
held off until 20 minutes past mid
night, when the saints anniversary was
ended.
The fortuitous circumstance OF dry
St. Swithin's day prevented settlement
of the dispute between the Weather
Bureau, which holds the legendary
method Of weather prognostlcation to
be the bunk, and those unscientific folk
who still hold with the thousand-year-
old legend.
The origin of the St. Swithin's day
legend is not clearly defined, but one
version has it that the saint was an
English bishop who died in 1862 A. D.
A century later he was canonized and
it was decided to move his remains
to q church. On the day Of the trans
fer there began storm which lasted
for 40 days. The people who would
have moved him to holier place took
this as sign of divine disapproval
and the saint was not moved.
From this grew the weather prophecy
that ranks along with grounding day
as popular superstition.
