Mourned by His Wife Sud-
denly Puts In Appearance

Columbus, O., Nov IA - Twelve
years ago Christ Gording, a brewery
worker, living in South Columbus,
disappeared from home He had gone
to his work as usual, but did not re-
turn in the evening. After a fruit
less search OF three months a badly
decomposed body was found in the
Scioto river and by means of articles
found on the body Mrs Gording iden-
titled it as that of her husband. All
these years Mrs. Gording mourned
her husband as dead. Yesterday af-.
ternoon Gording suddenly reappeared
at South Side saloon. He told a
story about having wandered about
the country ever since he deserted his
wife. He cried and said he wanted
his wife to forgive him. He started
for her home. but did not reach there
and has not been seen since.
Mrs. Gording denies that the man
is her husband and asserts that he Is
dead, but many with whom the man
talked this afternoon positively iIen-
titled HIM as Gording. He Is supposed
to have gone to Newark where he has
brother, and the police are trying
to locate him.
