Iufnite patience IS required IN talk
ing with Draughn. He puts his ideas
into words with the greatest difficult
ty and frequently he fails utterly to
make himself understood. He uses his
words in the wrong place and seems to
be unable to choose the proper words.
HIS NAME DISCOVERED.
Yesterday morning he talked with a
number of patients at the hospital con-
cerning his name. Suddenly he rushed
into the room adjoining his, which is
occupied by Mr. Hanks, and cried en-
thusiastically:
81 have found my fathers name and
90 believe it's mine. too. It's DEaughn
Emit Draughn, and he's in Germany.
l believe that's my name, too.
He was jubilans over his discovery
and told Of 1t in the most excited man
ner to all who came near him. Later
in the day lady whose husbard had
become interested in the case called TO
see the stranger and confirmed his dis
covery. She Stated that she knew him
in Salem, n. G.. Full confirmation IS
expected by Chief Connolly today. He
has written to parties in Winston and
Salem and expects 70 bear from his
communication today. He received
several communications yesterday. one
from Richard Travis says that, Judg-
ing from the picture published in Sun
day's Constitution, the man is L. a.
Sanner, of fremont, Pa. A picture
vas also sent, which vas accompanied
by q letter saying that the man was
named Pannell and that be disappeared
from Atlanta five or six years ago. The
picture resembled the cne Chief Con-
nollv has so very much that the chief
was led to believe that they were OF the
same person.
Draughn is about as vigorous now as
he ever was and he assists the nurses
at the hospital. He is good-humored
fellow and frequently laughs at what
is said to him with keen appreciation
of humcr.
