AB - A graph $G$ is called $\lbrace H_1,H_2, \dots ,H_k\rbrace $-free if $G$ contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to any graph $H_i$, $1\le i\le k$. We define \[\sigma _k= \min \biggl \lbrace \sum _{i=1}^k d(v_i) \colon \lbrace v_1, \dots ,v_k\rbrace \ \text{is an independent set of vertices in}\ G \biggr \rbrace .\]
In this paper, we prove that (1) if $G$ is a connected $\lbrace K_{1,4},K_{1,4}+e\rbrace $-free graph of order $n$ and $\sigma _3(G)\ge n-1$, then $G$ is traceable, (2) if $G$ is a 2-connected $\lbrace K_{1,4},K_{1,4}+e\rbrace $-free graph of order $n$ and $|N(x_1)\cup N(x_2)|+|N(y_1)\cup N(y_2)|\ge n-1$ for any two distinct pairs of non-adjacent vertices $\lbrace x_1,x_2\rbrace $, $\lbrace y_1,y_2\rbrace $ of $G$, then $G$ is traceable, i.e., $G$ has a Hamilton path, where $K_{1,4}+e$ is a graph obtained by joining a pair of non-adjacent vertices in a $K_{1,4}$.
