Tho disappearance OF Rev Charles
u Preston. rector Of st. Matthews
church jamestown. is being quite gem
erally discussed in Newport where Mr..
Preston was well known. The fact that
the KEY of his stateroom ON the Fall
River line steamer Puritan was found
on the inside of the stateroom door last
SATURDAY morning when the vessel
reached New York, and that in his
statero0m were personal letters. his
watch and other effects. still fails IA
make Mrs. Preston believe that her
husband killed himself.
IL is known that Mr.. Preston sent to
his wife and TO each of his children a
letter, telling them to be hopeful and
to trust in the Lord, but he made no
statement that Indicated suicide. Geo.
A. Sphinx, the general agent of the New
York Life Insurance company has re-
ceived a letter from Mr.. Preston in
which he declared that overwork and
worry had driven him wild and that he
intended TO put an end TO his troubles.
He suggested that he might never be
found. but that the money should be
delivered 20 his wife. as soon as II pos
sibly could be. This letter was written
On board the steamer.
Among the other letters written on
the steamer. and which have been de-
livered by the postoflice officials in
Newport. was the following addressed
10 a Newport photographer:
steamer Puritan. oct g. 1893.
"My Dear Mr. Chase am in sucp
a condition of mind as to be unable %
attend 20 the picture account. Some one
else will have 10 do IL for me. You have
been very kind and painstakhnE in youl
work for the chanel and IL does you

should happen 10 me. your matter vii
sooner or later receive attention. NeY

Another letter was TO Mrs. Frank w
