A Salute to Cecil Wetzel and Ellis \7ood

We salute Cecil Wetzel and Ellis Wood, California lumbermen, who rescued little Marc de Tristan, 3-year-old son of Count and Countess Marc de Tristan of Hillsborough, Calif., and captured his abductor, Sunday, September 22. The people of the nation rejoiced at the news that the baby had been found and was safe and well.

Mr. Wetzel is the owner of the Omo Lumber Co. at Omo Ranch, Eldorado County, Calif., in the High Sierra. It was near there that Mr. Wetzel and Ellis Wood, another lumberman, came upon the kidnapper. They took the man and the child to River Pines near Aukum and in a short time the country knew that the baby had been rescued and his abductor, Wilhelm Jakob Muhlenbroich, was in the custody of the G-men.

Countess de Tristan, the baby's mother, is the daughter of the late Edwin Christenson, founder of Sudden & Christenson, nationally known lumber and shipping firm.
