LONDON, April 11. Scotland
Yard authorities are detaining a
man whose identity is not reveal
ed In connection with the death
of Grace Blakaller, 1 6, pretty
dancing teacher, who was found
with her throat cut Thursday
night, huddled on the steps of
her mother's home in the fash
ionable West Kensington district.
The mystery of the case, which
previously had been set down as
one of assault, deepened when the
police came into possession of a
letter which reached the girl on
Thursday morning and which,
they say, is of the highest im
portance. The contents are be
ing closely guarded.
Prior to th detention of the
man today, Scotland Yards had
announced that' it was searching
for a man described only as a
"Young Indian Student."
It was learned today that the
girl for the last five years had
not been living with her mothers,
but made her home with Captain
La np ma id, a retired regular army
officer, who upon..,., her father's
death promised to act as her
guardian during her lifetime.
Captain Lang ma id, It is said, went
to visit his own father and mo
ther over the Easter week end
and the girl had returned to her
mother's house during his ab
sence. She went alone to a motion
picture performance on Thursday
night and a few haurs later her
mother heard a cry and found the
girl on the doorstep with a wound
In the throat. The only words
she would say, according to tho
report, were "boy from India.'
Later she requested that the
police should not make an investigation.
The case Is complicated oy tno
