the missing youth.
The nrlttan family continued to
search for him, however, confident
that they would find him sometime,
and It was only recently that their
courage began to wane, Last July,

Then O. W. Stark entered the

about tho case at tho time ot the

further Impressed upon him by
mooting Mrs. Ilrittan several years
afterward, and learning from her
own lips of their fruitless efforts to
locate -the missing boy.
When Stark entered tho employ
of a local hotel a short time -ago
ho became friendly with a fellow
employe, by tbo name of Cocll Lcn
Ighen. ITo was further drawn to
Lenlghen by tho lattor's resemblance
to a relative ot his. Upon ques

bad no knowledge ot his early life
or bis parentage. Certain char
acteristics of Lenlghen similar to
those he had heard Mrs. Brlttan
mention, caused Stark to believe
that Lenlghen might be Mrs. Brit
