greatly surprised TO find that he was not there
and that the bed had not been disturbed Tn
TO that time his family were not aware what had
beiallen him, and were not made aware of the
true condition Of things until Wednesday, when

without success.
On Saturday morning some boys walking on
the beach at Lloyd's Neck found a bloody shirt
one boot, and two lemons. A trail was also
discovered, with here and there spots of blood
as though body had been dragged along. The
SHIRT and boot were taken to the village and
identified as belonging TO the missing man, and
u was also ascertained that on the night of the
4th at the request Of his sister, he had purchased
two lemons at the store of MIR. Eaton Another

the place, had for some time prosecuted one of
the lovelleSt girls in the community with an
offensive courtship, which, from being pertna.
clous and impudent, became indecent, and rose
at last to the pitch OF gross attempts upon her
person. multitude of love letters from him,
hlled with amorouS obscenties, were Intercepted
and kept from the poor girl by her friends.

OF clothing, hair and beard, and replaced them
with close fitting and adhesive garment with
out seam from the crown to the sole, composed
OF tar and surface of feathers, in which aEpro-
pirate garb he was indulgently allowed to de
part in quest of further adventures.
