The DISAPPEARANCE OF Col. Ii. 5. HARD
-UNPLEAsANT DEVELOPMENTS. We are
panied to learn that grave suspicious are
prevalent in Arlington. that the sudden dis
appearance OF Col. H. S. Hard is due not
to insanity or foul play, but to misappro-
priation of trust funds In his hands. Col.
Hard was the receiver Of the bankrupt Ar
lingtOn Car Manufacturing Company. A
few days since Special Master was ap-
pointed by the Court of Chancery to
look into and audit his accounts.
The master. E. B. Burton, Esq, was
to begin his investigation Monday Col.
Hard's bondsmen are David Crofut, sher-
if; Fernando West, merchant; A. Bart
lett, hotel-keeper and j. X. Bachelor.
lawyer, of Arlington. and they are free to
to express the opinion, that there is ser
iOus defslcation on the part of the receiver,
one of them saying to our informant that
1t would exceed 81 500 and another that he
would be glad if 1t did not exceed SO, 900.
Some other unpleasant rumOrs connected
with the case lack proof. and We make no
mention of them.

arriving at the station, escorted by the

take them on board, as he had no orders ID

THE CASE OF Col. ii. 5. HARD.-We are
glad to learn that j. K Bachelor, ESD, of
Arlington. who was in town. Monday,
and who is one of the bondsmen Of Col. ii.
S. Hard, does not regard him as a dciaulter.
Mr.. Bachelor says that any deficiency in
Mr.. Hard's accounts as receiver will proba
bly, not exceed and that Col. Hard
could, doubtless. explain it. and that be was
amply responsible for that or for greater
amount Mr.. Bachelor believes that Col.
Iiard's disappearance is due to some abcrra-
ton of mind. We have known Col. Hard
for many years and respected him as an
honest man and courteous gentleman, and
we sincerely hope that all the unpleasant
rumors connected with his disappearance
will prove false.
