Child Lost 18 Hours in Mountain Search Ends

Rand Colp Williams, a three year old, wandered from home while following a horse near Gary. After 18 hours a search began and a hound failed to locate him until morning when a watcher found him in a distant thicket. He sustained only scratches and a light cold. The permanent house of Judge Slavia is completed years after foundations began amid wars and political changes.
