WILL DRAG STREAMS
IN SEARCH OF LOST BOY
DOVER, Del., March 12.—Interest
in the disappearance of the 4-year-old
son of Dr. H. N. Marvin, of Kitts
Hammock, March 4, continues unab-
bated. A systematic search of the
Marvin farm having failed to reveal
a trace of the boy, the detectives on
the case will now drag the streams,
in the vicinity of the farm out to
Delaware Bay. It is possible the boy
may have fallen into a. stream and
been carried out to the bay by tho
tides. The uncertainty of his son's
fate Is affecting the father's physical
condition, but he is undaunted in his
search and is confident his boy will
be restored to him.
