2l-YEAR Old GIRL MIS-
SING.

Miss Massey Of Dudley Left Home
Ind Nothing Heard of Her For.
n Week-Dtlt0ent Search Has
Receatett NotItt,,g Of Her Where
abotsts.
On last Tuesday morning, Sept.
5th, Miss Virginia Massey, the
year old daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. w. R. Massey of Dudley, S.
O., left home to 60 over to her
married sisters, about mile and
a-half away to assist her in put
ting up some krout. She
was to be back home Wednes-
day evening, but she did not come,
nd,naturally her parents were So
licitous about her, and the father
went over to see what was the mat
ter that she had not come home at
the appointed time. 10 their
great astonishment, they found
that Miss Virginia had not been
to her sisters at all.
Search for her was at once
made along the path that leads
from the home of the parents to
that of the married daughter. The
entire neighborhood for several
miles around joined in the hunt
for the missing young lady, and
the whole neighborhood, the
woods, fields, creeks, branches
and wells have been searched,
but all without finding the miss
ing one or without getting even
the slightest suggestion as to
where she is or what has over
taken her.
Virginia is a bright, intelligent
young girl and the thought that
she had suddenly became men.
tally unbalanced and committed
suicide was revolving to the we'll
nigh crazed parents, but that is
one theory. Another is that she
had been foully dealt with on her
way to her sisters and the BODY
carefully concealed.
Which of these theories is cor
rect, if either is, time may reveal.
If neither is correct, time will
likely reveal her whereabouts
and throw light upon a subject
now obscured in darkness and
doubt.
