LONDON, October 19.-The disappearance
of a woman doctor. Miss Hickman, which
has been a sensation here for the last two
months, has been partially cleared up by
the finding of her body in an unfrequented
part Of Richmond Park The remains were
horribly decomposed, the head having been
entirely separated from the body, apparent
ly by the gnawing of rats.
Miss Hickman. who was a fully qualified
doctor of medicine, was performing her du-
ties at the Royal Free Hospital on the
afternoon of August Is, when she left the
hospital Since that time the police of the
whole country have unavailingly searched
for her. She was healthy woman twenty
nine years Of age, and took nothing with
her except few pounds sterling in cash.
The reason for Miss Hickmans disappear
ance is a complete mystery.

and the fact that 1t badly gnawed by
rats, the remains We're only identified by
means of medal which Miss Hickman won
in swimming competition and by her am
bulance cross

Commissioner West today instructed the
police department to give close attention
to the matter of fires started in the piles
