DOLSON WRITES.
He is Doing Railroad Work
Near New Ulm.
Has Been Sick, and His Letters
Home Have Not Been Re.
Ceived.

Mont B Dolson is still among the liv
| ing. He was not the victim of foul
play, neither has he left the country
| Evidently he has not heard of the specu
I.lation which his long period of silence
has caused, for he is evidently laboring
under the idea that the recent visit OF
Sheriff Gerlich to New Ulm was for the
purpose of enforcing the collection Of
the balance due to Geo. w. Monks on
his horses.
| Mrs Dolson, who resides at No &c
South Fourth street, received letter
Friday evening from her husband, sent
from New Ulm and dated Thursday
1t is as follows:
Dear wife-I am at New Ulm al
work on the railroad. I will be at home
| in one week I wrote home but l got
no answer, so did not write any more
/ want to earn money have to pay fol
my horses. | have been awful sick, but
am better now. / am to WORK again,
The letter also contains few lines in
regard to the efforts Of the officers tC
locate him that lead to the belief that
he does not know on what kind of q
mission they went.
Mrs. Dolson is naturally very much
relieved to learn that her husband il
safe. He went west to thresh on Aug
10th and wrote home regularly once q
week after that, sending money to sup
port his family. pay rent and apply or
the purchase price of two teams. He
lost one of his horses. The last letter
which Mrs. Dolson received from him
was sent Sept Goth 1t is known that
he started towards Mankato Nov. 2
It appears that when he failed to re-
ceive responses to his letters he ceased
writing. Mrs, Dolson states that she
never received the letters that he refers
to as having sent her and received nc
answer to.
1t is thought that Dolson is working
out at one Of the railroad camps not fan
from New u Inn and has not seen the
newspapers. Mrs Dolson wrote him
last night, enclosing clippings from the
papers.
The theory of Chief Bruels that Dol
son was at work on one of the rail
roads and that he would show up in
due time is shown to be correct one.
At the same time the officials are to be
commended for their activity in trying
to locate Dolson. when there were sus-
picions of foul play. They are obliged
to stand the expense of the search with
out recompense
Dolson has gone west to thresh every
fall for several years. He is known as
an industrious man, and has always
thought great deal of his family,
Mrs. Dolson desires to extend her
thanks through the Free Press for the
many acts of kindness shown her by
the officers and others during the weeks
of uncertainty that have passed.
