Throughout DR.. John F.. Condon's
negotiations with the supposed kid

Jr, the Lindbergh family and the
police authorities refused to do
more than listen, with decidedly
skeptical minds, to certain wild
tales that were being poured into
their ears by John Hughes Curtis,
of Norfolk, Va.
Curtis, a 44-year-old boat builder
whose business had fallen upon evil
days during the depression, had

were the Very Rev. Dean Harold
Dobson-Peacock, rector of Christ
Episcopal church, and Rear Ad-

zens of the Virginia seaport.
Curtis was something of social
leader himself. AS president of the
exclusive Norfolk German club, he
led the annual cotillions, was busy
and popular figure in the Norfolk
Golf club, and was prime mover
in a newly formed yacht club.
Curtis told Col. Lindbergh that he
had been approached by a mar
known to him as Sam Torresdale
alias Murray Torresdale, alias Sam
Murray, alias Murray Truesdale
who claimed to have established
contact with the kidnapers.

corning the two communities.

small farm homes. His apparent
desire to form permanent contact
in Imperial Valley impelled him to
