REMAINS OF MRS. HEALD FOUND.
Disappeared From Her Sons Home on
Night of Feb. %.

The remains of Mrs. Nettie S. Head,
who disappeared from the home of her
son, Clair V. Head, on the night of
Feb. %, were found in the Messalon-
skee between the lower bridge and the
dam of the Union Gas Il Electric CO.,
Wednesday afternoon. Mrs Heald had
shown some symptoms of a deranged
mind several days before the night she
disappeared, but they were not consid-
cred serious. She had retired that
night and when the other occupants of
the house could not follow, left, sud-
denly. going directly to the stream in
the rear. Her tracks were found in the
snow leading direct from the house to
the river and there was never much
doubt that she had committed suicide,
although there We're some groundless
rumors that she had been located
A thorough search, lasting several
days, was made but without success as
the water was then very high and mud
dy. y man who was fishing in the
stream, Wednesday, noticed the body
floating and secured it with his line
towing it ashore. He notified Officer
Proulx, who telephoned City Marshall
Lascelle, and he instructed Redington
& Co., to take charge. 1t was removed
to the undertaking rooms of this firm
and prepared for burial. The face was
beyond recognition, but identification
was easily made by the clothes.
The funeral will be held at the home
of Clair V. Head, this afternoon, and
Rev. A. A. Lewis of Lewiston, formerly
pastor of the Pleasant Street Methodist
church, will officiate.

gagged in painting both houses. DE-.
Croker has, contracted with Mr..

The stay. of the two gentlemen at
Ocean Point was longer than they
planned, owing to a misunderstanding
as regards the steamboat service. 1t
was understood by them when they
went down last Saturday that the
steamer Damarir would call for them
yesterday noon. They set the signal
and claim that the steamer came out
around Spruce Point but did not pay
any attention to the signal and the
doctors had to remain over until this
morning when the steamer Nahanad;t
was sent out for them. 1t is reported
by the officers on the steamer that
there was no signal up for the boat to
call at the Point. as they went within
sight of the Point and looked for the
signal through the glass. Both gen
tlemen had important engagements at
home this morning and last evening,
