C., hope to know soon what to do with four men being held in Polk County Jail on abduction warrants involving Eva Ann Watson, 15. The Landrum girl, student at Tryon High School, was located in Louisville, Ky., Sheriff Brockman reported Thursday. He said the girl’s father left Thursday to bring her home. Sheriff Brockman pointed out that no charge is pending against the girl and that for this reason it was decided her father would be the proper person to bring her back home. Officers said they had not yet determined how the girl made her way to the Kentucky city after be ing sought here and in various sec tions of North Carolina as a wit ness in the case in which several men reportedly accompanied her across the State line in an auto mobile. Mrs. Watson told Spartanburg and Polk County officers that she last saw her daughter standing on the highway near their home.
