Telegraph Doctor Recovers Kidnapped Child After Silent Call
A physician recounts a near kidnapping case where two men seized a carriage with a boy inside. The doctor tracked the trail through street signs, alerted police headquarters, and with officers searched five houses before locating the child in a tub in a house attic. The child was revived after anesthesia. The incident led the doctor to urge early telephone use literacy for children.
