and went to Wheeling, from which place
he disappeared, having previously told q
Mr.. Robinson, OF Bellsire, that he was
leaving home for good, and asked Mr.
Robinson to inform his (Mooney's) fam
ily that he had been drowned. Mr..
Robinson refused to do this, but he
informed the family Of MONEYS fight,
Mr.. Mooney had become financially in
volved, and it is supposed to have been
the cause of his leaving home. He has
considerable amount of property in
Guernsey county and some in Bellaire,
altogether supposed to satisfy the claims
against it. His total Indebtedness is es-
timated at $4,000. Besides being In.
Urinary Director, Mr.. Mooney was ad.
ministrstor of two estates, and the JET

his part in connection with these trusts
which were committed to him.

was noticed last week, was discovered by
