é 44 CHURCH MEMBERS AIDING MOTHER IN SEARCH FOR GIRL Mrs. Knappman Keeps Up Continuous Hunt for Her Daughter Edna. If you should see a middle aged Woman with her hair turning pre- Maturely gray wander into a cabaret, Of looking anxiously about the streets she will probably be Mrs, Mary Knappman of No. 546 Van Buren Street, Brooklyn, who is searching for her fifteen-year-old daughter 800 CHURCH MEMBERS ARE AIDING IN HUNT | Béna May, who mysteriously disap- | peared Friday, Dec. 12, and has not been heart of since. The mother has been searching for her daughter since her disappear- ance twenty hours out of every twen- ty-four. She goes about in @ taxi-| cab most of the time, but frequently4 walks, and she is becoming so weak that she has recently collapsed sev- eral times in the streets, Fadna, with her sister, Katherine, both sing in the choir of Christ En- glish Lutheran Ghurch at Lafayette and Patchen Avenues, Brooklyn, and on the night of Dec. 12 they started for choir rehearsal. They found that tlie rehearsal had been postponed and started for a walk. About 8.30 o'clock they met three flashily dressed young men at Gates and Reid Avenues. The men seemed to know Edna, according to her sister, who went back to the church and left her with then. The sister waited for more than an hour, and then when Edna did not show up she went home, told the mother her story and the! search began. Edna ts an attractive girl with dark brown hair und blue eyes, five feet six fmches in height and weighs 145 Pounds. When she disappeared she was wearing a dark velvet coat, a brown skirt, a black hat and black @hoes and stockings. She has a rich @eprano voice and was a favorite in ghurch and home circles. “If she will only come home,” said Mre. Knappman to-day, “I will forgive Der no matter what she has done. Ed- Ba was always a sweet, affectionate @iri and had no love affair that I ever heard of. I don't think she would go ‘on the stage, bat she was crazy about the movies and she often expressed @ wish to act in them “If she doesn't return soon I shall @ie of a broken heart or go to an fogane asylum. Just look at my hair, Why before Edna went away there ‘was not a gray hair in my head, and Bow it is nearly entiraly white.” Mrs. Knappman said she feared the men whom her daughter went @way with are “cadets.” This is the fFeason that she is now searching not only the better class cabarets and music bails, but the saloons and dives fm the slums and red light districts of New York and Brooklyn, Bight hundred members of the @burch and tho pastor, the Rev. Karl ard, have organized searching | parties. Fifteen friends of the mother meet at her home every night and go owt in squads searching the streets and avenues of the city. ‘The mother has had 1,000 cir- oulars printed bearing her daughter's ture and her description and she | had these placed in cabarets and @aloons and dives and dance halls. Detectives have begun a search of the moving picture studios and thoatrical les, “Sana, ‘up to two weeks before her ance, attended the Bushwick School, but then went to work ft @ department store.
