Webster, Sept. 14.-Robert Gatzka
and wife have been having all kinds
of trouble for the past "a hours, but
all have passed sereneIy. The cause of
all the worriment of the Gatzka family
is their nine-year-old daughter, Ella.
She is now sorry.
Yesterday afternoon she wandered
away, and was not located until this
morning. Consequently, her parents
were worried. 1t was a case of search
all night, with no results
Whatever possessed the little girl to
wander away, is not known, and she
cannot account for it, either, although
she says she had a strange feeling come
over her that she could not shake off.
When supper time came and Ella had
not returned the parents commenced
to get anxious. They hunted about
their home and the adjacent grounds,
but could not find her. AS the twilight
deepened and the child did not return
the father commenced to think that
something serious had happened.
A thorough investigation was start
ed and continued for the best part of
the night by the anxious father.
This morning the child returned home
near Point Breeze. All she had on
when she left home was a light shawl.
and she was nearly frozen from the
cold air that was abundant last night.
However she did not appear any the
worse for her nights trip.
