Storm noticed an open cellar door at
a house not far from the child's
home. Shortly after entering the
dark basement, he heard scratch
ing noise. AS his eyes became &C
customed to the darkness, he saw
some child's clothing on the floor
and realized the scratching was
coming from a small trunk, about
l foot wide, feet deep and feet
long, which was on stone ledge.
Beryl Ann was inside the closed
box. She was hysterical, but an
examination at Gallinger Hospital
established she was otherwise un-
harmed. The little girl later said
she had been playing with two
young boys, but was unable to ex-
plain how or why she came to be
in the trunk.
Police said parents Of the boys
were notified and disciplinary ac-
tion was left to them.
