Allworden, on the Barhamville road,
that night.
His wife is unable to account for
his absence, and she says she thinks
he has been foully dealt with. She and
her two young children have been left
in a most deplorable condition. both
Of the children are sick and she her
self IS Just recovering from recent
illness. The eldest OF the two chill
dren is two years old and the youngest
is only seven months old They are
without money or the necessaries OF
life and are dependent on the bounty
of their good neighbors for feod-&r6-
shelter.
The Langleys invested in s75 worth
of furniture on the fastallment plan
when they began housekeeping some
time ago, and this has been seized and
removed by the furniture house from
which it was bought because Of her
inability to pay the installments. Mrs.
Langley said that she had paid about
half of the SIS and that she had foet
that and her furniture too. She and her
children are being cared for at the
home Of Joseph l. Gates, who lives
near the broken up home OF the Lang

So far as can be learned there is
absolutely nothing to indicate why
Langley should have left except that
he was in debt and could not meet,
his obligations. His wife states that
he had no enemies. so far as she knew.
There is no reason to believe that ne
has met with foul play.
