Manning investigated and found the voice that of a baby boy. The boy was perhaps 10 months or a year old, had fluffy hair, gray eyes, a pug nose and a pinkish baby on its face. It was well-dressed and wrapped in blanket. SOLDIER AND WOMAN SEEN SCURRYING ? WITH WHITE BUNDLE Pe It belonged, seemingly, to nobody. Yet a man who aia : not give his name told Manning that a woman and a soldier had been seen, perhaps an hour before—at 10 o'clock this Christmas night—hurrying across the dock, a white bundle, Manning took the baby to the city hospital, where j was placed in a crib in the babies’ ward, and where it a remain while search is being made for the father and mother. Should father and mother not be found, The Star may, have a little New Year gift for some one. Even I might tie a “Happy New Year” tag on a chubby wrist and present “baby and all” to some one who wants © a kiddie.
