Detroit, March 22.—Mrs. An na Hauptmann began a search through police and welfare home records today in an effort to cor roborate an unsigned letter which declared Bruno Richard Haupt mann was not guilty of the kid naping of Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr., and described a “living Lind bergh baby’’ in Detroit. The letter described in detail the "plot” and listed the kidnap ers. It also stated that the body identified by Colonel Lindbergh as that of his son, had been ex humed from a Bronx cemetery, clothed in the Lindbergh baby’s clothing and left near Hopewell “to throw a scare into Llndy, who was known to have marked the ransom money.’’ New Jersey officials who ex amined the letter, received by a New York newspaper man who covered the Hauptmann trial, said they were inclined to dis count it. "Further,” on© offi cial said, “there is no doubt the body found in New Jersey is that of the Lindbergh baby. I witnessed the identification my self.” *4; •'(' ■ \ -*i’- ifiotte 1 And.
