for miles without result. 1t WAS n.
ported Sunday that a man had been
seen near Crab Orchard with an old
SLOUGH hat on, but otherwise appar-
emily well dressed. On the strength
of this Gordon Gilley and others went
in search of him Sunday, but were un-
able to get any clue to his wherea-
bouts. 1t is now currently believed
by many citizens Of Big Stone GAP
that Mr.. Sanner is neither dead nor
crazy, but that he is evading pursuit
for reasons best known to himself. 1t
has been intimatrd that Mr.. Sanner
was to raise q certain amount of
money for the Big Stone Gap Colhery

this has disappeared for time, in the
