to her home here every evening. This she
has done for over year without molestation
but on Tuesday evening she was subjected tc
a severe shock by fright.
According to the story, the young lady,
whose name is withheld by request, closed
the school at the usual hour and started for
town. A lonely walk of about two miles was
before her. After travelling about half the
distance and upon reaching a place where
large rocks and dried bushes and small trees
are quite thick the young lady was astounded
to see man, entirely nude from the road
behind her
AT first the teacher was almost paralyzed
by fright, but quickly recovering her pres.
ence of mind she screamed for help and ran as
fast as she could. The man gave chase. but
the effects of the frozen ruts in the road upon
his bare feet must have impeded his progte ess,
for the young lady finally succeeded in leav-
ing him at a safe distance behind.
The excitement kindled the teachers
strength until she reached her home, when
reaction set in and complete collapse followed.
Yesterday she was prostrated and unable to
attend the school
1t is said that later in the evening two
young women who had occasion to pass along
the same road were frightened and chased by
the same man, but they escaped him.
Inquiry and search about the scene and in
the neighboring patches failed to bring out
any information that would lead to the
identity of the man, or his whereabouts. 1t
is the opinion that the fellow may be an
escaped lunatie, for a man who would wander
about the roads and hills without clothing in
such weather as we have had the past few
days can hardly be of sound mind
The matter is being thoroughly investigated
and if the guilty party is apprehended he
will be severely punished, unless he should
prove to be insane, in which case he will be
put some place where he will always find
suit of clothes at hand.
