Five years ago, young German
named Francis Won Bulow, committed -u-
lclde on board a schooner at Capt. Rich's
ID Hallowell. Complete mystery surrounded
the case, which a benevolent Hallowell
lady, native of Germany, attempted to
fathom by entering into correspondence
with the German consul and others. The
result saws the Hallowell Register, was
the identification of the dead man as a son
of Baron Won Bulow, the third son to end
his life by hanging. The death of the
Baron and the settlement of the estate
bring up afresh the details of the young
mans death. City Clerk Stafford of Halo
well has just forwarded the consulate
certificate of the death Fate seems to
have grim grUdge against the Won Bu-
low family, which is not to be escaped in
any part of the world
