Joseph Tague left his 3-year-old daughter, Heloise, at the
home of his father, Caswell Tague, while absent a few hours, Sun.
There were other children with whom she was playing but in some
manner she strayed away and when her father returned she was not
there. A search was at once started. In the meantime, Bud Kidwell
found a little girl playing in the creek under the bridge near
Walter Grimes' place. She had torn her dress in some way and had
taken it off and was carrying it under her arm. She was taken to
Tude Hamilton's home where she was cleaned up and fed, but could
not tell where she belonged. The find was reported to Marshall
McCall who began to call up the country south and in doing so
crossed up with Mr. Tagues' inquiries, and the little girl was
soon restored to her parents. It is over a mi. in a straight line
from her grandfather's home on Will Milligan's place to where she
was found. She didn't seem to be a bit worried. - kbz
