Ed. Reporter On Friday last the
news agent in Middle Division, W. C.
R. R. left the train going south al
Mil Greek sta ation5 thinking to go s
short distance into the woods and Kill
few partridges to take back wrth him
on the next train. Up to this date,
this is the last seen of him.
Search was commenced for him that
afternoon, but without success. The
down train that eyringi vhistled for
him that he might be able to get his
bearings, and this has also been done
by every train since. On Saturday
the place Of his Friday nights encamp-
ment was found in shanty about one
and one half miles north of Mill Greek
depot. He left letter there, stating
that he was lost and asked the finder
to leave it at the station that search
might be made for him. On Sunday
search Yves regularly instituted for him,
headed by Mr. G.. S. Rhodes the road
master of the division. Thirty-five
men were in the woods all day, and
found three more letters dropped by
hin one offering reward Of one hun
dred dollars for his discovery. Anoth-
er reported him to be all right. They
also found the place Of his Saturday
nights fire with the ground yet warm.
Finding him heading north, the men
returned to the station, and a party OF
fifteen started up the line with q good
supply of food, blankets and 8timu-
lants, to head him off, and meet him If
possible. He had struck the Little
Eau Plaine river, and was heading
north. Ills name is Joseph L. Robin
son, and he is spoken of by aiI who
know him, as fine young man. Is
about twenty one years old, anI has a
wife and two children living in Me-
nasha. Sunday evening the operator
at Mill Creek sent the following dis
patch to his wife

To Mrs. Robinson, Menasha Your
husband is probably staying in the
woods tonight, about three and one
one half miles north Of here. Men
have gone to him with food and think
they can relieve him tonight without
fail. They feel sure of finding him
tonight or in the morning. All has
been done that could be, and there are
about fifteen men in the woods tonight,
and he will be found and cared for if
possible. If you wish to come here
tomorrow you are welcome.
