The Harry Levine disappearance case has been placed in the hands of the state pol Tuesday evening Officers R. H. Wheeler of Stratford and W. E. Jackson of Willimantic were detailed to make an investigation. Tuesdiy evening a deep well on the Hanover farm from which the 4 1-2 year old child disappeared so mysteriously last Thursday afternoon was sounded; in fact, one of the officers went to the bottom of the 30 foot well, but no trace was found. there of the missing ad.
