Robert Low Of Westford left his team
at Gary Bros. stable and went away last
Friday. At last accounts he had not re-
turned, and considerable anxiety Is felt
by his family regarding his whereabouts
Mr.. Low told the owners OF the stable
that he was going to New London and the
team would be called for the next day. It
Is feared that his mind was slightly de
ranged, as several who saw him before
he went away say that be acted strangely.
Frank Williams, employed by Bidwell
& Co., went away last Tuesday and has
not been seen since. He asked of for |
Wednesday, and no anxiety was felt
about his absence until Thursday. The
fact that Williams had collected about
$500 that he has not turned In TO his firm |
lends color to the theory that he has run
away to England, where he has q wife
and two children. The missing man has
been planning to have his family come
here when he could afford It, but had not
realized his ambition. Much surprise Is
manifested In Williams disappearance
and shortage, as be was considered thor
oughly trustworthy by all who knew him.
He was a regular attendant at the Meth
odist church and prominent In the Tenn
pie of Honor. In addition to the short
age with Bldwell 4 Co., Williams has 9
few small outstanding accounts among
the merchants. Much regret Is felt that
the young man should have adopted such
a course.
